Escalation according to what I can read, looks like x6 damage (+500% to ongoing). Looking at the evolutions that's roughly: 32 + 35% (x1.35) = 43.2 + 500% (x6) = 258 At a base duration of 10s, that's 2580 damage. If duration was taken, that's 15s (258 * 15) and goes to 3870 damage total. If the expose evolution was taken, that's 258 * 1.15 = 296, so ~400 more total damage over 10s (2960). Which isn't bad for Warp entirely on its own and before other buffs. Although since you have Singularity, would Double Warp be more functionally useful? Especially since enemies tend to dodge so well. And since they are captured by Singularity, Warp will detonate anyway on contact. Decisions, decisions...

Warp's usefullness is going to be entirely dependent on how ranks 1, 4 and 6 are calculated and how Escalation behaves. Testers grab your nuts because we're going to need this one figured out as soon as it drops.

Testers grab your nuts because we're going to need this one figured out as soon as it drops. And how often your team detonates it. It's probably going to lose usefulness in PUGs with no detonator discipline. No reason to think the dot would continue through a detonate.

Omg, juggernaut looks so distractingly good for a character in closed faced helmet! The rest are too similar to what's already in the game. Thursday, I guess Looks absolutely badass, and great powers too. Let's just hope he doesn't sound like Napoleon Dynamite or Atreyu from Neverending Story.I hope he sounds like falcor

Which isn't bad for Warp entirely on its own and before other buffs. Although since you have Singularity, would Double Warp be more functionally useful? Especially since enemies tend to dodge so well. And since they are captured by Singularity, Warp will detonate anyway on contact. Decisions, decisions... The damage sounds tempting but we have to then remember that this is over 10 seconds, no enemy even on Platinum minus maybe a Progenitor is going to survive long enough to see the entire benefit of the DoT. I hope that this data mined info on this ability is horribly out dated, like pre-buff skills out dated because Warps base damage and DoT seem INCREDIBLY low, and is out classed by nearly every other damage dealing ability. Maxing Warp still only yields 260 initial damage with a 43.2 DoT, not to mention the penalty against shields cutting that damage in half. By comparison a stock Incinerate with no bonuses factored in at Rank 1 deals 350 damage with a 45 DoT Warp should apply a universal 20% increased damage taken debuff to enemies hit instead of just effecting armor, rank 4 Damage to Armor should either be Initial Damage or a Radius that allows it to effect anything within 2m of the impact. Rank 5 Duration should be replaced with something similar to Lingering Burn/Buning on Flamethrower and Incinerate were the DoT and duration are increased by 50%. Lastly Warp's base damage and DoT should be increased to at least 300 with a 35-40 DoT. Otherwise Warp is just an inferior Incinerate or Invasion, I need to see just how effective Warp is going to be at least on Gold when I have one of the new classes rank XX, because right now I'm just not seeing it being all that great of an ability.

Just my thoughts on some possible Rank I Level 20 build ideas for the upcoming characters:
Human Artificer Cryo Beam: 4a/5a Remnant VI: 1 Invasion: 4b/5b Offensive Tech: 4a Defence Drone: 4a/5a/6a
Human Commando Singularity: 4b/5b Turbocharge: 1 Warp: 4a/5b/6b Apex Training: 4b/5b Combat Fitness: 4a
Human Guardian Backlash: 1 Shield Boost: 4b/5a/6b Warp: 4a/5b Apex Training: 2 Barrier: 4a/5b/6a
Human Juggernaut Snapfreeze: 4a/5b/6a Fortify: 4a/5a Shockwave: 1 Apex Training: 4a Remnant Armor: 4a/5a

The Guardian looks like a fishbowl dressed in pajamas. I'm excited about the commando. I can relive the glory days of ME3 Human Adept (after they buffed singularity).

The Commando's skillset looks pretty overpowered. One could say it makes both the Human Adept and the Turian Soldier obsolete.

Between the bad PR and Destiny 2 releasing, they'd have to be brain dead not to give us at least one this week. That being said, this month's APEX "story" mission doesn't really seem to be resolved yet and we've never gotten two characters in the same calendar month before so who knows? They may wait another week then release the new kit to the zero people that will be left because everyone rage quit out of frustration.

I forgot that the following Thursday coincides with Destiny 2's release. I just preordered that. If they're smart, they'll release the kit this week and won't pretend the one new kit can compete with D2. But I suspect they'll release the kit the same day as D2 to try to prevent players from shifting over, which just won't work. If the kit comes out this week, I'll prolly drop about $10 on packs to jumpstart the new kit. If it comes out the following week, I'll be playing D2 and won't even bother to boot up MEA. That reminds me, I need disc space to make room for D2. I wonder which game I should uninstall... lol.
