Yup they completely ruined the character. His specials, especially special 2, hit for far less damage than pre-patch. Also after every special he has a pseudo-cooldown. His power is completely drained and you have to wait a second to 2 for the power to come back. All he gets in return for these 2 big Nerfs is power drain on special 1, and a special 2 toolbit that says how long his burn lasts.

Overall my favorite 2.6 character is now my least. Red Lantern had the job of high damage suicide bomber. Now that he doesn't do a lot of damage he is useless. Bringing him in for power drain is eh and same for the dot, other characters do that so much better and can be healed.
