Looks like you panic glint healed with only weakness and 2 stacks of bleeding on you; imo you need to be overloaded with torment and burn to make good use of infuse light. Also I'd give up on hammer and definitely try sword off hand.

What planet are you from? Druid is not countered by anything. It has complete power damage mitigation, full condi cleanse, insane regen and prot, mobility, stealth, stab, stun breaks, evades; traits and trait lines which all make perfect sense. It's bloody immortal. And if you die to ele or thief on druid then it sounds like "you problem".

I think the worst part is actually getting used too much to new PT while waiting for hotfix =)

> Am I missing something? Why is druid considered so over-tuned all of a sudden when absolutely nothing has changed for the class since just before path of fire.
Exactly becuz "_absolutely nothing has changed for the class_" when nerfs to sustain were really needed, cuz it was pretty immortal already; and with nerfs to other classes it has to be an absolute god mode now. Except maybe revs will have a better time plusing it

You can delete a scourge in 2 sec now tho, also remove all his stab and CC lock him. They will probably nerf or change "Brutality" anyways.

Or you could swap to sword out of sword... seriously, we can have decent quickness uptime now without the energy cost and still have extra damage from IO, rev seems kinda broken damage and CC wise now, but it's more of a button mashing of never ending combos.
-
How about you add an icd on both quickness gain and stab removal, but make it proc from legend swap as well? Wouldn't that make more sense?

Renegade still won't be great in pvp, but don't act like those massive energy cost reductions are nothing. This will bring it from sub garbage tier to just not good tier. Why you all are complaining about the kalla buffs all being for pvp is baffling; renegade is already very strong in pve, it's strong in raids and does competitive dps while healing rev works in comps where people arent stubbornly clinging to the chrono meta.

How is no one excited about the impossible odds changes? The damage with this turned on using sword 4 or sword 3 is going to be good.

Comfy to use staff 4 tho.

I belive 6k _Essence Sap_ is strong enough to make you reconsider. The guy wasn't even on zerker. And there's no mechanic on skyhammer that boosts your stats.

Animation canceling in BDO is when you usually add some buttons related to other ability after a combo so you're not locked in post animation, thus you're faster and less prone to get hit into this vulnerability frame. BDO is more of a mix between a fighting game and hack and slash, so some slow skills that can't be animation canceled are considered to be a suicide to use (like some black spirit rage skills).

Yeah, probably, I won't argue. But the question is whether it's healthy from competitive point of view or not, I guess. I think it's not. So my point was that maybe we should be kinda happy we have a different combat system in gw2, I believe that's why most of us actually play it.

again, you're talking about different things: animation canceling is not weapon stow from gw2 where you cancel your abilities to bait people or when you realize it wouldn't land... animation cancel usually means you spam even more and have less counterplay.

It's more of a gamble because it leaves you no possibility to time a hit into a post animation frame, but instead encourage you to spam your combos even more in response.
And the gambling part goes even further in BDO as it has stats like accuracy and evasion, where "hit or miss" doesn't always depend on you, and CC resistance stats (resists to floating, bound, grapple, stun...) While the only randomness in gw2 combat usually comes to crit chance and some engi elixir gamble.

"fakecasting" is more like a weapon stow in gw2, right? Animation canceling in BDO is when you usually add some buttons related to other ability after a combo so you're not locked in post animation, thus you're faster and less prone to get hit into this vulnerability frame. BDO is more of a mix between a fighting game and hack and slash, so some slow skills that can't be animation canceled are considered to be a suicide to use (like some black spirit rage skills).

> I adapted, I never fought this kitten alone as revenant. But again, you can't always +1 and there are in fact many scenarios where you just have to 1v1 them and this is why I am not going to play till next balance patch :D Doubt anything will change tho
I can't believe I'm saying this, but you actually can take a 1v1 against scourge as a power rev... if you have a good opener, which is more of a gank than 1v1, but still =)

idk if this would be healthy, but it certainly sounds like fun!

Still better than what Anet's balance team would ever do.

Yeah, tactical overheat is another level, trying to learn how to deal with it now.

I mean, they do such a great job at balancing, we could only assume they must be really good at the game.

No, we don't see any weavers, not in groups at any rate. Sick mesmer imagination...

okay, but can Irenio be so kind and give us a sneak peek at the upcoming rev butchering again?
-
@"Gaile Gray.6029" I think this issue will resolve itself, unlike the other problems of this game mode you should be bothered with.

Like I mained powa ranger since 2013 till HoT and I always said that was a terrible mechanic, and now they give more of that boloney to revenant, feelscursedman

It's kinda true, except for the leaderboard part. The current decadent state of spvp making it even more about the connections.

I guess this is how anet deals with "no valid path" issues, just adding bridges on Kyhlo so everyone can cross =)
