Erzian.5218 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I remember the last mid-season balance changes (PoF). They turned one of the better meta games into the complete dumpster fire we have now. On the bright sight, It can't get much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because their balance patch notes have more new Gem Store items than balancing itself. Had to wait ages for the last "balance" patch. What changed? Nothing worth mentioning. Been waiting for the next balance patch since forever. What will change? Warrior damage lowered by 5%. You wait half a year for a balance patch so small that it could EASILY be done in 2-3 weeks.

Lyger.5429 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 They do not have a dedicated balance team, that is the problem. For all we know the current team might be working on the next set of elite to sell. Balance (especially in PvP/WvW) is clearly not priority.

Lunateric.3708 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I don't get the senseless complaining from people that in most cases don't really play ranked competitively. For the PvP team and Ben specially since he's earned my respect and appreciation: **it is the right call**, we need more frequent balance, we need it to not be entirely tied to PvP seasons. What you're doing is reasonable and will benefit the entire game, it will also shake up things mid-season in what usually is a very stale meta. Me and many competitive players support it, **don't get discouraged** by the very vocal people that take every single thing you do on a very personal level.

Every single class has meta representation in ranked PvP except perhaps Weaver (core ele still a thing). If 8/9 classes see meta play what's your complaint?, that balance isn't perfect?

Rufo.3716 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 You had a ton of people just holding on for the hope of a balance patch to fix things for next season and now you just basically crapped all over your players. It still baffles me that there is no test server. You know you could be working on changes little by little and putting them on a test server to have your players test them, for free. I guess that would make to much sense though. You'd think with the last two horrible balance patches they would be quick to at least make some changes. You know it would be that simple if you actually had a test server rather than trying to test everything internally. It would also eliminate the chances of disastrous balance patches like the last two. Just very disappointing that this level is acceptable to any company when you know the majority of the player base is upset and your biggest streamers and supporters are leaving you.

There is currently a balance patch in the works for mid-season. if there is no balance patch tomorrow and we will have to wait can I say this, enough with the nerfing instead of nerfing classes just buff others to bring them up to par with classes that are currently at a higher league of play than the other ones, so that way more builds/ profession styles will be viable. Its better at this point with how nerfs have been going to look at how the ones falling short can be buffed. And lets be honest the Reaper shroud/Vanilla shroud change was a bad idea for duration wise. This goes for PvE wise and PvP wise enough nerfing lets talk about buffing the weaker ones.

They turned one of the better meta games into the complete dumpster fire we have now. On the bright sight, It can't get much worse. This really. The lack of a balance patch before the next season wouldn't be half as infuriating if it wasn't for the fact that the 12/2017 "balance" was based off completely misguided reasoning and did more harm than good. I actually extensively covered this in another thread: https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/20963/major-suggestion-revert-the-entire-12-2017-balance-patch#latest TL;DR -Changes to condi did not accomplish stated goals -Buffed overperforming specs -Nerfed underperforming specs -Nerfed core builds ( Buy the expansion if you want to stay viable plz kthnx -Anet marketing team ) Most bad patches are one step forward one step backwards. But the last patch was just one clumsy step backwards for absolutely no reason. I still stand by my claim that the patch should just be reverted. In fact, anet could revert that patch tomorrow instead since there is no balance update. Deletion of that garbage patch would better than nothing.

Angeels.3269 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 People need to stop defending anets actions here. It benefits no one, least of all us, the consumers. Balance is in a really bad state, and it was obvious that a balance pass not hitting tomorrow was going to cause a lot of uproar after the complete failure of the last two balance passes to address any of the actual issues. Anet wants players to represent their game but how can I consciously do so when I am given no other option other than to feel that the balance team is completely oblivious to the real issues the pvp game modes face right now. I expect they’re probably nice lads but the way things are going I just can’t come to any other conclusion. There’s no communication (till the day before people expect it to hit). We don’t know what changes we can expect. It’s just a massive failure all around. I just hope someone higher up sees this and realises keeping this community in the dark about this stuff will only build more resentment and throw away any goodwill that the openness that the pvp team has had in recent weeks made.

XxsdgxX.8109 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 As a Revenant main I'd rather not have any buffs. Please instead nerf the f*ck out of so many other things instead.

SPESHAL.9106 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 This is actually a good sign overall. Yes, it would be better to have a balance patch before the season, but having one during the season is a great precedent. This means they can do it in other seasons too without adhering to some contrived logic for not corrupting things mid-season. It will also give a ton of quality evidence as to the effectiveness of the balance changes. You will have half a season with and half a season without. This is much higher quality evidence than a week of unranked action where it's impossible to fully vet new changes. Stop being such whiners about everything. The fact that half of you are posting emotional vomit about the late patch shows that PvP isn't really dead...otherwise you wouldn't be here and care. It's ALWAYS more important for them to get things right and not go overboard like every post on this forum calls for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing HoT's 2015 release, to PoF's 2017 release, it's been really slow. HoT had two major balance patches by this time 2016 despite HoT launching later in the year than PoF, in addition to HoT having a number of hotfix patches thrown at various things. PoF's meta settled much faster than HoT's did, yet the devs are taking far longer to address the meta than they did with HoT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hat.1493 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Glad we got a reply, disappointed that its that we're waiting longer for a balance patch. Hopefully this balance patch will be something to look forwards to, with the meta people have had to put up with for so long now and the previous balance patch that was nothing short of mediocre.

vorpal.1497 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Not counting the PoF which unbalanced everything, and its subsequent patch that made SB slightly easier to kill (need 2v1 instead of 3v1 wahoo) and made mesmer/necro even more godlike, we haven't had a balance pass since August 2017. That will be ~6 months! And then that patch was targeting unused skills and traits that people still don't use. I don't know if I can be arsed to look back in time enough for when the last actual meta-balancing patch was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
