Aura Buffs?

[Guybrush20X6]

I wonder how Lucario's aura is going to be stronger. Maybe that'll mean you don't have to be in the danger zone before having good KO moves.

 

[Gune]

Well from what sakurai said he still needs damage, but I'm guessing he is going to be even more powerful at aura cap or he is going to be all around stronger.

 

[Swift Fox]

or he is going to be all around stronger.

In other words, when he's at over 9000%!

 

[Aurane]

Considering he was specifically talking about the aura ability, I'm sure Sakurai meant that the aura damage boost is increased. That's my assumption, anyways.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

I'd like it if the cap was removed. I mean if you can get to 999% damage you must either be excellent at recovery or that Fox player must suck and deserve what's coming to him.

 

[Protom]

Probably either cap is raised or the amount of damage needed is lowered.

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

Probably either cap is raised or the amount of damage needed is lowered.

I was going to say this. For all we know, you may just have to take 100% damage and not lose any lives.

 

[Aurane]

I'd like it if the cap was removed. I mean if you can get to 999% damage you must either be excellent at recovery or that Fox player must suck and deserve what's coming to him.

Another reason to justify the banning of items

He is probably gonna just get more from being lower than before since people die earlier in Smash 4.

As long as he's better, I don't really #MewWho

 

[extremechiton]

i think the aura buff means, he gets boosted at lower percentages, with higher power output, and a larger cap.

 

[BindingBlade]

I'm guessing it just means the attacks overall output more damage.

 

[Seraphim.]

If they increased the power, then the Anubis strategy will be even more deadly.

 

[extremechiton]

now imagine an anubis strategy with lucario and rosalina. lucario can be the fore front fighter, and rosalina can use her luma to assist. so she is not completely helpless by planking the back ledge.

 

[RoxburyGuy58]

It means his damage output from the Aura boost is greater. That's it.

 

[dimensionsword64]

It means his damage output from the Aura boost is greater. That's it.

Most likely that's it.

 

[BindingBlade]

It means his damage output from the Aura boost is greater. That's it.

Hopefully. It's is key to his play style.

 

[Superyoshiom]

Gamexplain gave the suggestion of him turning into Mega Lucario when he reaches his aura peak.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Perhaps the amount of damage that Lucario needs to utilize its aura attacks to their fullest is lowered from 182% to around 150%. This may explain the power increase with Lucario's attacks.

 

[-TAG-]

My proposed aura buff is have Lucario's aura boost carry over to the other stocks. Maybe put a limit of how powerful Lucario can get each stock to prevent the strength boost from being too overpowered at an early point in the match. Now when Lucario reaches his last stock he will be able to go to his fullest strength.

 

[Black Mantis]

now imagine an anubis strategy with lucario and rosalina. lucario can be the fore front fighter, and rosalina can use her luma to assist. so she is not completely helpless by planking the back ledge.

Yo I could see this being a viable team strategy if Anubis returns.

 

[ProjectAngel]

Either his Aura boost does more damage or he starts doing more damage at lower percentages.

 

[Rocket Raccoon]

I hope if his Ki (Aura) gets buffed, he does better damage overall. Although I say hold the power on Goku when he's got beaten a lot.

 

[SmashShadow]

Our first aura buff confirmed.

 

[extremechiton]

actually third.
1. aura has more of an effect in this installment, being more powerful sooner and with greater increase
2. aura sphere moves faster when fully charged and heavily damaged.
3. extreme speed distance increases with heavier damage.

3. extreme speed distance increases with heavier damage.

The first is pretty vague quantity wise and the second isn't specified as a buff. His old aura sphere also increased in power and speed when he was at high percentage and/or stocks down.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Looking at today's picture I can only think

"The truth is... I am Steel-Type Mon."

 

[Gune]

Extreme speed going Extremely far you say? Seems like edge guarding is becoming more of a non option against Lucario. The aura effects are freaking gorgeous kinds reminds me of P:M lucarios aura effect.

 

[Sunnysunny]

Uh.
So apparently Lucario's extreme speed distance is based on his damage?
I guess thats okay. Not like he's very likely to get thrown off the stage far enough to get gimped at early percents.

I wanna see just how far it goes at high percent though. Could be pretty damn hilarious. I just imagine him flying like, an entire smashville distance or something.

 

[Arcanir]

It's good that he got that buff since now he can stay on the stage longer despite having to deal with the higher knockback potential.

Also, glad I'm not the only one who thought of Iron Man when seeing that animation.

 

[Gune]

I just hope aura debuff isn't taken to far this time around that's the only thing I hate honestly.

 

[Sonicguy726]

Our first aura buff confirmed.

This is awesome I hated extremespeed in brawl it was so hard to aim (or maybe I just suck). I guess you are just freely flying now, which may be a little broken but because it runs on aura now maybe not so much. It reminds me of the flying suit from galaxy

 

[extremechiton]

The first is pretty vague quantity wise and the second isn't specified as a buff. His old aura sphere also increased in power and speed when he was at high percentage and/or stocks down.

The first is still a buff overall
The second, i did a speed test using a 300% lucario and a 0% lucario and charged the aura sphere to its fullest. on battle field i had one lucario on a platform and the other underneath the other lucario, and pressed B at the same time: they moved at the exact same speed, even though thier size and damage output is larger.
