No there is always going to be more than 1 Weaver, but a timed CoR or Phase Smash on a group will also down multiple people in one go its really just positioning yourself or not wasting your dodges so when you see that coming you can dodge. MS is bugged and we all know that, but it's a total overreaction to it really, I've yet to be downed by MS itself only died due to some bad play by myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can it be avoided? Yes, MOST of the time it can. There are, however, places and situations that are unavoidable. In these instances you are eating 14K-22K damage at least once, and that's just from one player. I agree there are other "one-shot" skills/combos, but they don't cover such an enormous area. I get it, you enjoy dropping bodies, but wowzer no one can credibly argue that what MS is doing right now is okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You predict it the same way eles have to predict your movement to place MS. Kappa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Pj.2193 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Large group of a Melee ball predictably moving to a spot = incoming Meteor. I main Weaver.... Sword. Scourges weren't a problem either.... until you had 25...... Yep. MS needs fixing to be sure. It's just quite comical to see the level of reaction.

Kappa Oh right, don't be within 1200 range of an ele. Or 2100 range with lightning flash. Don't stand within 1200 range of a cliff, or anywhere that's out of sight either I suppose, since they can walk out, MS, walk back out of los. Hey quick question, what's your recommendation for handling a flank group of 4 weavers and a scrapper that keeps them stealthed until they all MS? Every time you see a stealth gyro know that your group of 50 is going to get dropped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not in a bomb, the bomb was off to my side, I got one shot by meteors that werent even aimed at me with no time to react. Second video I get dropped as soon as the ring went up. You can't even see meteors on the screen because they get culled as soon as there's 20+ people. 3k armor and protection, one shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimator.3589 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 This is just the pirate ship meta taken to its extreme and illogical conclusion.

Or yell at your eles for not wiping enemy zerg. Engage away man! mistform, downstate 2, twist of fate, or lightning flash just gets them back into the fbs where they are instantly ressed. You push, they MS on feet. Have you tried walking into ms? Bait the MS and then push you say? Everyone is running 20+ weavers, there's no point to running anything other than that or support. 24s CD. You'll always be pushing into a couple MS, which means your Frontline gets dropped instantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it isn't an overreaction. It's a 1200 range skill which crits for 10-20k per hit. You have to spam dodge to get out, or use CDs if you got no dodges. It's extremely high pressure atm and it's broken. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > You know what? Have fun not playing WvW. I'll enjoy it without you, because it hardly makes a difference to me. Yes, I've been hit and essentially one shot by Meteor Shower several times already, but the next time I just continued running. A single mobility skill or roll is enough to leave the circle and considering that in bigger fights you will always move a lot anyway this hardly matters. > > > > > > These people won't even get their 3 second cast time off. > > > > Get off your horse. I can "manage" the current state of MS but that's no reason for negligence. > > Idk, if many other people seem to manage while being aware of this existing why can't you? Is it really a high horse to expect people to just accept the things how they are for the time being? It doesn't take much. I think it's fair to express frustration over the negative impact of a mistake, and the developers delay in rectifying that mistake. I get it, WvW is a hot steaming mess, but as the OP says, just because the game mode already has flaws doesn't mean the devs can be so cavalier in addressing an obvious and admitted error.

Egorum.9506 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Anytime that a patch absolutely breaks a gamemode, it gets hotfixed or disabled. Except this time apparently, because fucked anything that isn't gem store or pve based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeyspit.3965 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Let me also add that while not a game dev myself, I do recognize that you sometimes can't just issue a 'patch' to fix a mistake. Having said that, I've observed a pattern that when they do release a patch, they actually issue 2-4 patches afterwards, usually within the first 24-48 hours, so we know it's possible for them to do it. This also shines a light on the complaint I've seen repeatedly about ANET not testing their patches. Seems to me that this is an easy error to spot since it's not intermittent, and doesn't require special circumstances to trigger. If you intend to increase the damage of an ability by 'x', wouldn't you at least head to a Golem and test it out to make sure that 'x' is in fact the amount the damage increased?

C Cspace Cowboy.5903 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 As an ele that gets one shot by invisible dead eyes that imob me before raping me, revs that cor me, Rangers that long range shot me, the from invisible backstabs that one shot me.... you know what.

Egorum.9506 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 You're right, those classes can one shot a class with low base vitality who isn't blocking, evading, or invuln. How does that make it okay that one ele can drop 20 people every 24 seconds from range? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
