    Now listen here missy. Don't be coming all up in here with your logic and reasoning okay? We ain't got the time or the effort to listen to your "sound reasoning" up in here.

    K?

    This is the internet. A very serious place for very serious people.

    Please, someone speak up so i dont feel like im losing my F'n mind ...
    Out of those 9, you tied 3.

    You have no one to hold responsible except yourselves for tieing those three matches consistently.

    Should've swallowed your ego and lost the matches and gotten more points.

    We don't.

    b) If it is for the better, will it be enough to make PvP popular again (or at least, as popular as it has been in the past, if not really popular)?
    Maybe

    c) If it ends up being even worse, why put the effort into it in the first place?
    The powers that be need to not repeat I13 beta, that was pretty much all their fault.

    We have no basis for confidence that it'll be improved, and if so, if that will have a significant impact on the game.
    Agreed.

    And that's where they ****** it all up. They didn't level the playing field. They made it much worse.

    That's an interesting point considering it's pretty much false.

    Stalkers get a bad rap because they're easy to get kills and with shraks it's even easier to get kills.

    But that doesn't mean "95%" of villain pvpers play them.

Who knows...if we can find someone to fill out Droe & Scribe's 3rd spot, maybe Oz might have a change of mind down the road after a break. Besides 8 teams just sounds better than 7.
    Don't take this the wrong way but who volunteered you to start looking for team mates for Scribe and Konquess?





    Exactly....

    Do the same thing in PvE. PvE is too easy.

    Yeah okay. I like going into missions where the NPCs conveniently enough just sit there waiting for me to attack them. Missions are either kill all, rescue someone, kill a boss, or some variation of the three.

    The PvE in this game is boring, monotonous, unexciting, and downright easy as hell.


    I lol at people that think they need a stone brute/tank for anything. Or that you can't do something because you don't have a tank/brute to hold aggro.

    That's funny.

    Assault Rifle/Ice Manipulation is still bad.


    Way to go devs, you guys rock.

    DR I understand (Not the maths!) but here I think they did get the numbers wrong and DR'd stuff too harshly I think which prevented buffing AT's from having much use. Just adjust the DR curves, EXPLAIN them clearly and PvP would probably be ok again. Or maybe add +elusivity into ally buffs, so they work above and beyond DR.

    Oh and they might want to do a slight rebalancing of certain powers, yes DPA is a good balancing point, but some powers should be allowed to fall off this rule (IE: Flurry! And most of Ice Blast).
    Cool story bro.

    Hows about we take the PvP 2.0 rules and apply them to PvE? And we'll see how quickly you "understand" and "get behind" them at that point.


    PvP 2.0 is all fail. Epic huge fail bigger than the rings of Saturn.
  16. In light of the healer limitation "reversal", I'm done with the Champion league.


    Scribe, Droe, and Simon ya'll can have at it.

    Take that and apply it to stalkers.


    3 stalkers were ran ONCE. And apparently everyone think it's the most horrifyingly broken lineup ever.

    • Slows are near irrelevant.
    • Ally shields add a fraction of their stated resistance/defense buff.
    • Competitive builds need billions in inf to be complete, outside of HP cap.

    That's it off the top of my head...

    I'll also add


    Kinetic Melee's last attack does more damage than AS
    New Domination/mez system basically screwed Dominators. Domination is just a free +end bar.
    AS got gutted while attacks such as Fossilize do more damage.
    Slows don't actually slow.
    Ice blast/Ice assault are useless.
    Traps is useless.
    Mez protection powers such as CM, EM, or Clarity do not prevent allies from being mezzed.
    DR hits certain attributes so hard it makes other powers OP. (Heat Exhaustion for example

    PC_guy you're making too much sense. We can't have that on these boards.
