I could not agree more. I was expecting stoneform + prot & poisoning to be higher priority on the "nerf list" before the bestial suit, but instead poisoning is still being buffed up (not including pot changes, which shouldn't even happen imo anyway) after all, the only reason poisoning was buffed in the first place, is because of CURE POTS auto-cure without the chance of interruption is stupid as F@$!. the bestial suit just isn't worth using if they stick with the new "updates" to it.
Couldn't agree more with your comment on bestial suits....THANK GOD the uber n00b open field pvp is done. I think poisoning will still be fine but more balanced so your chances of going thru 15 cures is really small.
This.
they made poison the main counter to a mystic, and they continue to try and up poison...a group sticking DP should be able to take down a mystic np. don't know why they made it so mystics can run in stone form though, which was a needless change (old change, now). not sure why they did that. hailstorm is a nice choke point counter, but I agree it's odd they didn't split damage when they implemented the spell. like you said, every other spell is split.
stop trying to nerf pvm because of your pvp issues. The game doesn't revolve around pvp, and if a mystic is in stone form then just find a different target, its not going to chase you down because you are mounted and he is not.
I agree this is getting crazy ..... and yes if anything casters need buffed especially mystics they have a handful of spells and They are over powered ? next will be pooison then they will want archers and then tamers and better nerph bards because they rule!
You pvpers are never gona be happy until theres nothing left except auto attack, standardizing weapon stats to be the same across all weapon types, and doing the exact same amount of damage each time you hit every hit.
Lol we already know that "evasion in a pinch" strategies in pvp terms means running off screen while chugging potions, or smoke bomb. Lots of thought there cough. You are just angry that mystics can kind of tank your damage by protecting/stone form healing long enough for his friends to get him out of trouble instead of having to resort to either of the above. Same reason you hate bestial suits, because they can kind of tank your damage until their friends arrive to save them instead of having to run away and chug pots while hoping to live through precast flame strikes etc. Actually i take that back you hate people who smoke bomb as well. so the only acceptable thing to do is running, but thats only because you get to call them a noob in general chat because they are coward or something for trying to escape
Coming as it is from a hypocritical Mystic/Tamer this quote is #1 on my top ten list of most dramatic & self-serving bs.
you're kidding, right? you can solo the gauntlet with rising colossus, lol. armor ignore on a summon...lol. mysticism is pretty OP, for PvP or PvM. maybe a RC should have a bleed attack, too? give them splintering, lol.
rofl, id like to see you solo any of the monsters in doom gauntlet that can dispel in less than 2-4 hours with nothing but rising colosus if at all due to monster hp regen. Quit exaggerating pvper.
You are trying to deflect the topic to something else. The entire point is that nerfs are bad, making things useless is bad. Especially when the nerfs are being done because apparently some pvper's feelings got hurt when their "sub-par" target didn't instantly drop dead when they looked at them. Same reason why the pvpers complain about stone form and protection, because they can't stroke their e-peens when they arn't PWNZOR-ING or w/e it is that pvpers do.
Thank you. If you go back a read any of my posts this is the exact thing I have been begging for. It is damn near impossible to test and balance an item when you have no clue what the developers intentions were. If a developer is going to put out a new mechanic like this and want it to be viable for both aspects of the game we need the formula the item operates on and to know what the item is intended for.
People used this suit in PVM and not just to annoy PVPers? Really?
I'm not exaggerating. I solo the gauntlet on my mystic regularly. The hardest thing is probably the Flesh Renderers because they seem to dispel the most often and have great movement speed, but between mass sleep and RCs it's pretty easy. Plus I have protection/stone form to fall back on and 75 in all resists. Also, none of the gauntlet monsters--especially the DFs--regen at high rates. If you're going to try and represent PvMers you ought to at least know what you're talking about first!
You are so right. It IS YOUR JOB to test. Just like it is your job to vote. Don't pancake about who's running your state or country if you don't vote. The more people with pvp knowledge that test the better the patch is gonna be. Up until recently most of the core pvpers didn't care enough but things like bestial suits were just too awful to ignore.
What they need to do, is make it to where if you specifically target a non summon with the 6th level "Dispel" spell, it attempts to dispel their buffs. Make it's success chance based on Eval vs Resist. For Warriors, make the "Hit Dispel" property on weapons do the same thing, but make the success chance based on Focus vs Resist.
Congratulations you can solo gauntlet on your mystic which i never said you couldn't do, i said that it would take you forever, so you are still exaggerating if you claim to do it "regularly". And no regularly does not mean once a month or once a week, its more like 3-4 times a week and about 5-8 complete clears at a time solo. And even if you say yes you do all that, I bet my dexxer can run doom much faster than you and all i have to do is armor ignore spam, and switch to radiant scimitar whirlwind spam on the dark father. Furthermore I took my 120/120 mystic down to doom before and it takes so long to clear a room with nothing but colossus i almost fell asleep from boredom. Therefore you havn't refuted my position, dexxers are more powerful than mages, and mages are underpowered in comparison to dexxers. There is nothing a mage has that can compare with an armor ignore spamming sampire.
Yeah quoted my own post and bolded the most important parts, because the majority of the last several posts have all been PvP vs PvM and its getting a little rediculous.
My eight accounts aren't going anywhere, especially over a suit that only 1 of my characters wear. And no, I don't worry about flagging, red is my hue of choice.You sound like you're one of those players that enjoyed actually being able to stick your neck out. Everyone will miss you, sucks you'll have to go back to your house all the time and never flag first. Hopefully it was fun for you while it lasted
I can clear the Gauntlet w/ my mystic mage in 30 mins-1 hour. I find it easier than using a sampire, actually. I have a chiv mage tamer, a mystic mage, and a sampire, and I use my mystic mage for most of the more difficult fights because the RNG chance at AI on the spammable RC is the best way to go 99% of the time on new content. Other times I'd rather use an energy field and direct spells.
really lol most people pvm
I agree, the low population in the felucca side clearly showed PvP players are not a majority. The original bestial armor is trying to encourage more people going to there, now, it is screwed up by the 60s timer.
I guess it will be balanced when you can win 1v20 instead of 1v10, amiright? That is your original gripe about the suit, you lost a fight vs 10 other players because they were wearing the suit.
For those who missed the first page, the OP is upset because he could no longer single-handedly kill this screen full of players. Therefore the beastial suit must become deco or he will take his marbles and go home.5 of these people are using beastial suits. 2 of them are death striker smoke bombers. Two more stealthers in the suit that you can't see and a 4/6 chiv dexxer someplace with the suit. 2 of them are using speeder.
