Gravenz.6258 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 @"Talindra.4958" It's true that it's a start since the mirror comp died. However diversity is only a DPS privilege so far and it's extremely annoying when you see the bridled potential of other classes to fill tanking or healer roles...

Gravenz.6258 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 If truely a player is stuck with druid or chrono since 2015, one, it just proves how ridiculous this "meta" is, two, they have a serious problem (?). This said I'm pretty sure players wont quit, on the contrary it would bring something new, people would not be cornered to those two specs anymore. Thus bringing more interest into healing and tanking for other players thus more flexibility in parties. Personaly I love playing support/healing roles in most games but I was atrociously bored of playing druid after 4 months, because while I see my collegues being able to change and adapt to each fights by switching character I was stuck with this curse because other healers are completely unreliable on their own, in a game that boasted of its classes' divers game-play as its main selling point ... And despite the obstinacy of some to keep the chrono-druidstravangaza going by arguing that there's no other way, it's false, because it's already starting to change, slowly but surely. However to fix the issue once and for all they'd need to focus on 5 to 10man content, which doesn't seem to be a priority ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you just didn't know how to play heal-engi. Kitty spent a good time figuring out the best possible build for it and no, it doesn't blast water fields. The optimal boonbot-healengi spams mortar 5, elixir gun 45, shield 45 and camps med kit 1 otherwise (it's a really under-rated heal despite it's power). Try-harders can also try blasting fire fields from flame turret toolbelt with elixir gun 4, mortar toolbelt and shield 4. This build keeps about about 16-18 might for the sub (in other words about 80-90 total, equal to what many pug druids bring), full fury, good protection and brings PD. PD version: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqelsThaqYVVwdLQ7FLGGUYA+b+F3fI2A46j/OB-jBiXQBh6EAgQle66BAQP9ANUJ4RU/BA7PIHlBkCwvZWA-e Optimal healing version: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqelsThaqYVVwdLQ7FLGGUYA+b+F3fI2wYOexKA-jBiXQBh6EAorHAACV6Bg9HaoSwjo+jcUGQP9AkCwvZWA-e This build works best when couple with a good druid with healers in separate subs for optimal boon distribution.

I always ask myself, what if ANet would release a ground breaking balance patch tomorrow which would completely shift the Raid/T4 Fractals META much like it is today, but completely towards the other side of the classes, if all these people that I've quoted above, would reply with: ah I don't care, it was about time; or if they would be the very first to complain how OP Revenants, Thieves and Necros are now, and that they need to be nerfed very soon??? Cause I see _why_ they say these things, and to be fairly honest, I don't want to have homogeneity either, it's the actual opposite of diversity, but I do want diversity in classes/builds **over time**! Taking raids for instance: making Eles, Mesmers, Warriors and Rangers from tomorrow onwards viable at best; Making Revenants, Thieves, Necros and in a lesser extend: Guardians and Engineers optimal for _all_ raids! And don't worry, they don't have to reign for the years to come (it wouldn't even be that unfair, as do these other classes pretty much since the beginning of the raids), but at least have them to be kings for the upcoming months/half year! And then we'll see who's next. Cause, these _very long sitting_ mandatory classes in optimality, is just getting ridiculous. It's already to a point that ppl advice new players to main only certain classes right now, so they won't find themselves into nasty spots (including community rejections) later if they plan to dive into the PvE endgame. It should never be like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obtena.7952 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I wouldn't care ... because the ultimate reality is that there is SOMETHING that is optimal in this game... that means their are lots of things that aren't. When people QQ this or than isn't the best, they just aren't understanding the game they are playing. The meta has shifted a few times but make no mistake, it's definitely not PLANNED as to what it shifts to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a trend similar from gw1 skill balance can do good and bad at the same time and needs careful adjustment Since Anet doesn't care about meta, there isn't any reason for them to tread lightly around people so sensitive to it in the first place. The game isn't designed to cater around people that have meta-think so ingrained in their thinking; retaining players on the fringe of the accepting the game design is a zero sum game. If meta players want the most from the game, they better have a wide range of characters and gear to adjust when it does change. Sounds like your friends did not accept that eventuality.

Talindra.4958 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 It isn't exactly about meta. It's about changing how ppl used to play with their game and characters. Having to adjust, having to deal with it after change. Probably OK for some who doesn't matter what changes..but it does matter for some. Anet needs to consider all that. A bit if changes via expansion is good but not modifying or tampering with skill all the time esp when it's already stable.. for the health of game population. what happen when you give a candy then take it away after.

Gravenz.6258 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 @"Talindra.4958" Sounds both unfortunate and ... a weird kind of reaction in a MMO where you barely have to reroll to change position. To my side of the exprerience, in my guild, it was breath of fresh air to finally have more flexibility. One of our PS was glad to switch to any other damage dealer, and we ran mono-druid on most bosses that allow it, because a good druid with a decent group can pretty much deal with everything on his own (that's just how ridiculously overpowered Druid is). Today since we're pretty much at ease with the 4 first wings, I'm able to make actual tests in Druid+SecondHealer compositions, Scourge and Renegade are excellent healers so far, with their own unique perks. I'm gonna have to wait for next weak to try out FireBrand and Engineer, but so far with the results I got, it is pretty much obvious that if you run a second healer in your raid for comfort, any second healer would be more interesting than a druid ~ That's how the game have changed so far, even if they keep denying it in most PUG. The only thing that didn't change is Chrono and it's usually a strawpoll between our mesmer players to know who's gonna tank. Seeing them this annoyed makes me glad that I've never created a mesmer ahah. But even there we're working on a possible FBtank(quickness)/RenegadeHeal(alacrity/might) subgroup composition but nothing tested yet ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptAurellian.9537 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Same here. We had and have only one warr main and our healers seem to be pretty happy about not having to run druid all the time. Now we just need a change that provides flexibility with the chrono's role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many ppl appreciate changes..So it needs to carefully done. Again ... I don't get what needs to be considered. Anet makes changes to the game. heck, EVERY game dev studios do it. If game changes for some sensitive players mean they leave the game, they shouldn't AT ALL be playing MMO's in the first place. Stability has nothing to do with it. Devs change games for lots of reasons. Stability doesn't imply it's good as is. Besides, even a bad state of the game reaches equilibrium ... that's not what I would think, a game dev is after Frankly, what you describe just sounds like people who were completely unwilling to accept a change that they wrongly associated with their characters being somehow less desirable; like they didn't get their fair 'slice' of the pie. Most of the time when people quit because of such weak reasons, there is something much more fundamental going on that they just don't want to accept. I mean ... I think we can all say as reasonable gamers that Druid getting might is not a reason for someone to quit the game if they aren't playing druid. That's silly. There isn't anything to consider there at all, other than the fickle nature of misunderstanding players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
