Kinda bummed the mods deleted my threads regarding new rumored sets that included this one linking to my newest video. Naturally I am a little concerned that psy melee might have a rough time of things in the end game due to frequent massive psy resists, which might match how lethal damage does in similar situations.

They weren't exactly 'rumored' as 'discovered through illicit means'. So it's kind of understandable.

Yeah but I didn't know that at the time, and I'm not convinced everything has been confirmed by this either.

Right but it's still a leak, whether you were aware of it or not. You're not at fault, but it's info they're going to try to keep on the down low until they're ready to announce them, so I wouldn't be surprised your thread was quashed.

Hell, you dropped the beans about [redacted]! I'm pretty sure Positron won't be pleased about that. Nor when you said how [censored] would [removed], and that [deleted] [expunged] [erase]! How'd you think that'd be let through!


Plus you said Positron was a [eradicate]. Not cool, dude, not cool!

As far as I'm aware, there has been no such balance decision ever made. And yes I'm aware of the post you quoted. My statement stands.

This is impossible.

PvP damage numbers are always different than PvE damage numbers. Therefore, PvE damage numbers will not ever be altered for any PvP reasons.

Not to mention, the 'Psi hole' doesn't exist in PvP. My invul brute's 2nd highest resistance type was Psi, and that was without aiming for any psi bonuses. Psi melee wouldn't be considered OP in PvP unless it had massive DPS or massive burst. It's one of the most resisted and used damage types in PvP.

Some Devs think every NPC and PC have psy 'holes' in their 'armor' and turn down psy damage accordingly. We saw this with Incarnate powers that do DoT... the psy DoTs were made lower out of fear it would be too strong against the PvE foes.

The reality is that NPCs don't have such holes.

So... rather than PvP driving PvE mechanics, the exact opposite has happened.

The only reason people think otherwise is because most people only go to PvP zones for shivans and nukes.

Personally i would like to see pvp doen away with and the zones converted to pve zone content. This would stop the issues with what works for what and would help them focus on the main stuff in the game. not a sub par secondary system which only a minuscule of players play. now you can reply to this comment i don't really care despite what you say more fell this way than the other and we are growing every day. So enjoy whats left nof your pvp because some day it will be gone, if nothing else due to causing issues with the pve part.


Some of my suggestions from posts i have done

or wasnt around then, at least on the forums. But officially, exactly from a red name mouth, say anything whether or not pvp affected pve or pve affected pvp? There might be and probably is one so kindly point me in that post direction if you can. If there just happen to none that exist, then either way is nothing but speculations.
