Player Notes
Edit
- The player will be unable to dodge as long as Devastator Mode is active. However, this is counterbalanced by having full immunity to being staggered while in Devastator Mode.
- It also slows movement speed, making it difficult to carry out delivery objectives or evade Ravager fire effectively.
- Devastator Mode provides nearly peerless proficiency with weapons because of fire rate increases, magazine expansions, and damage boosts. If the T5-V Battlesuit passive power is optimized for weapons damage, the Rank 5 Rate of Fire and Rank 6 Damage Bonus evolutions can contribute to the damage stack to give the N7 Destroyer 57.50% more weapon damage. Level V damage boosting Weapon Mods, Level III Rail Amps, and Level V Gear Amps can increase this bonus above 127.5% extra damage. Any ammo bonuses applied will increase damage even further.
- Similar to Adrenaline Rush, when a player activates Devastator Mode it will cause the clip to instantly reload if used at the right time. Note, however, that the time it takes to activate Devastator Mode is often longer than a reload animation, except on a Particle Rifle that has run out of charge. One can deactivate then reactivate Devastator Mode with a reasonable cooldown that is shorter than the overheat reload.
- Devastator Mode cannot increase the capacity of single- or two-shot magazine weapons, regardless of magazine capacity upgrade levels. This is because capacity is rounded down (1.35 = 1 shot). As such it would be very unwise to go for magazine capacity with said weapons, since they only really gain accuracy and damage.
- The Executioner Pistol is the only one-shot weapon capable of gaining an extra shot with level V Pistol Magazine Upgrade. Devastator Mode provides an inherent 20% magazine capacity increase, so the Magazine Size evolution is unnecessary for this purpose.
- As of the October 24th update, Devastator Mode has had a significant decrease in power, with the base magazine bonus decreased from 25% to 15%, its rank 2 magazine bonus reduced from 10% to 5%, and its magazine increase at rank 5 from 25% to 15%. Finally, its "Rate of Fire" bonus at rank 5 was decreased from 25% to 15%.
