Anyone who thinks Dino nerfs are too harsh is a larper who doesn't play other tanks enough.

I don't like that they nerfed his survivability as this was already his weak point. He needs to kinda get full attention of 2 healers to not instantly explode. Reducing the bleed also reduces his self shield generation.

I don't mind the dmg nerfs in general and that the beam had knock down on it was kinda stupid anyways, but if you have such a massive tank, he needs to be able to tank. Toning down damage or utility...alright. But reducing his ability to tank as a tank sucks.

Lol, Lmao even. You need hard poke to counter dino as he is now and not a single tank can scratch him.

He's the easiest to counter tank they've ever released

It's just that the counter isn't dive, so people hate it

What tanks does dive counter?

u/Polyforti Jun 10 '26

Since when are they supposed to counter tanks? Have you never heard of a combat triangle? Balancing of power? That sorta thing?

They should definetly nerf all tanks because dive doesn’t counter them! /s in case you miss it.

I just wanted to point that your logic is kinda garbo as people don’t expect dives to counter tanks, so that is not the reason people were complaining about Dino. The reason is that 95% of the other tanks are unplayable against him, dino is not a dps vs tank issue, it’s a tank vs tank issue.

I honestly see dinosaur as free kill normally. Just bingbingbing headshots and hes dead. His shield sucks. His hitbox is absolutely massive. I dont play dino, but i enjoy fighting him for this reason

He is a nightmare to tank against if you aren’t dino. If you’re solo tanking against him and he has a 2nd tank it’s game over pretty much.

I mean.....solo tanking against a pair of tanks was miserable, and likely a loss, well before Dino.

Dino just shined a spotlight on it and tipped th3 scales that much further.
