While I agree that Adepts need to be looked at, the problem rather seems to be their short cooldown on the shade ability. Not sure how much this will fix.

Ravagers, on the other hand, definitely need to be armored.

Terran just has no way to kill Adept fast enough. In engagement, they take way to long to kill and terran army get wrecked. I don't like the change either but there is really no other way that I see. Other solution is just give terran a way to deal with Adept and this change would not be necessary.
I may not be the best, but i will be some day...

Makes me wonder what this game would be like if Blizzard had nerfed speedivacs one month after HotS start.

Would Ravagers be too weird as Light Units?

Yeah. They already have very low HP. They have even less HP than roaches. making them either light or armored would destroy them.

125hp unit that cost 3 supply and cannot attack air. not so good

only corrosive bile is bit of problem against buildings maybe

Adepts with upgrade is the one that scares me most, because with adept being armored you must go roach.

Ravager strong unit no doubt, but it is already getting nerf in next patch. Takes much longer to build ravager next patch.

Outside of reactive ravagers, I'm not sure what that actually changes.

Nerfing the ability cooldown would be a far better move I think.

I don't understand what you people expect. Zerg has no harass or early push. There is only ravager when you play zerg to punish greedy protoss and terran.

Terran harass units :

Reaper
Hellion
Banshee
Liberator


Protoss harass units :

Adepts
Phoenix
Oracle
DT (to little degree)


I want to harass enemy too as zerg
So many zerg nerf next patch and you guys want to butcher zerg even more I don't understand

That would affect PvZ more than PvT then.

I feel like they are missing the point. Both races are kind of bottlenecked into the same compositions over and over mainly bc their other units just aren't viable. BC, Carrier, hellbats, voidrays, colossus, ghost etc. We see the same units every PvT. I feel like instead of nerfing the units that work tinker with the ones that don't.

Even for Terran it'd be nice. You'd have a bigger window to kill the adept and the chase would be less annoying. I think making them armored in the end just makes them too bad against marauders.

you're probably right. Maybe both changes (armored + longer cooldown) are needed in fact.
