revenants are ruining pvp (along with cheese guard w/ judge's intervention)

i mained condi engi before i started mesmer and the only reason i stopped playing engi was because arena net's balance team is inconsiderate as hell and decided to remove condition removal from elixirs and moved it to inventions because one day some guy in their team woke up and thought to himself "i want to play holosmith with inventions instead elixirs" so they removed the condi removal from elixirs

 

ironically people just played holo with no condi removal anyway cause inventions is a fully defensive trait-line and it doesn't have flexibility like elixirs do and the whole protection to remove condi concept on engi is dumb

 

even so i have an alt holo condi which i don't play cus its not viable cus engi is generally a trash class and the only reason holo is viable is cus ppl go full damage and cheese out people with burst damage because the meta atm is so dumb and power scaling is off the charts and you can get any cheese to work occasionally and this thread is more or less talking about it and im sure ive talked about this issue in other threads

what's "MA" ?

axe 3 is super close range its nowhere even the same

illusory ambush is garbage and i even talked about it in my post above

RNG teleport dodge ( means you have no control over where it puts you ) that does nothing but give you a half a second iframe and an infinite horizon proc, which by the way only became meta because of me in the first place.

> illusory ambush is only good on greatsword mesmer and i'm not talking about gs mesmer cus its just another power build which is almost as braindead and as overpowered as the three here in question but it's still worse cause it needs to be melee range for shatters and illusory ambush doesn't put you in shatter range to your enemy and is a garbage ability in comparison

 

 

 

but you conveniently left that part out

 

if you use illusory ambush in the first place on a condi build then you're either a bad player either a 1v1 duelist on point and in that case the teleport function doesn't even matter cus you use it for the break target and the iframe

 

on top of that NONE OF THIS EVEN MATTERS BECAUSE MIRAGE IS A CONDITION DAMAGE SPEC (unless GS, which i already stated) and condition dmg doesnt kill you before you can react in 1 second. I wouldn't care if CORE GUARD played a burn build and then judges intervention is w/e since i dont actually die in half a blink and i can actually play the video game

but it does because you can line of sight and know that you're not dying from a guy ambushing you from stealth. It's also much easier to "feel" stealth than it is to feel a 1200 range teleport, also stealth ppl can take damage while walking next to you in stealth. Also if you jump on top of something the stealth guy also has to jump on it instead just teleport from outside of your screen

 

i'm not defending stealth but stealth is much easier to deal with than no line of sight teleports , except dead-eye perma stealth which is a bs mechanic and shouldnt' be in the game in the first place because it can be abused so hard and you can easily see it if you actually go to the HoTM arena and see how many low-lifes are griefing on deadeye there cause for some reason the class can stealth for infinite long periods of time and can even remove its revealed status which is complete bs. It's unfun as hell and its an abuse and the only reason it isn't that bad in spvp is cus the objective is points but wvw is completely ruined from that perma stealth bs

the other thief specs can also perma stealth which is also bad but at least they pay heavy initiative and even still that shouldnt be in the game either but both of these are not as gamebreaking in sPvP as no LoS teleports on power burst +1 classes

why dont you use the block against a guard with judge's intervention without using an iframe simultaneously with it and see how much damage you're going to block and evade, lmao

you're going to tank damage in this game no matter what and staff's protection is much better for that

it gives a whole full second! Add half a second for retargeting and it's a 1.5 sec evade.

The low cooldown means you will have it up again before core guard's burst is back up. If the guard delays a bit longer you will have it thrice.

Let's also not forget that with quickness (sigil of agility for core guards, phase traversal on rev), the entire burst can be mitigated by one mirage cloak.

Sword 3 lets you port through walls?

It also lets you stomp a thief mid stomp animation that ported away

 

Edit: just saw that someone posted several ways to port through walls and up ledges for Mes.

[Snellibee.2761]

Rev has no shadowstep that he can use while casting another ability, also rev is prob 20x harder to play than the class you play so just know you're getting outskilled everytime a revenant kills you.

There are no ranged classes in the meta, except maybe scourge but I wouldnt really count that as it is more node-dmg oriented. Deadeye is just aids but mostly because of its stealth. Ranged dmg can easily be countered by LoS and projectile defenses. A ranged build that needs to stand still on a non-port spot all the time to be somewhat effective is useless anyway.

hehe its cool. I was just surprised... like, huh? Does Arthur really think I agree with this guy?

Anyways, carry on. Wont really matter. Op has convinced himself and is not interested in anything resembling the truth.

lol ....i have been hit with 30k world impact from stealth with a sic em build ........so that 19k looks kitten to me .

I understand revs at high elo are very OP but then again its high risk high rewards class. D/p thief can farm revs all match every match. But i really think that a mirage main should not complain about rev at all. Mirages have shit tonnes of escape mechs + shit like de-targeting where the enemy has to find the mirage again among the sea of clones and phantasms.

[Megametzler.5729]

Thanks for pointing out a fourth skill for porting through walls, @"sephiroth.4217". I kind of want to compare axe 3 with Polaric Leap from ele, not even mentioning all those classes that _actually_ have no teleports through walls, not like "I have better skills to use lol".

I just can't take you seriously. There are so many good players out there who can reflect on their classes' strengths and weaknesses. Keep living in your little world where common dodges last longer than mirage mirror, fine for me.

It's more about the Soulbeasts that don't die but somehow are able to hit for 22k in seconds using their longbow from 1500 range.

A soulbeast hitting you that hard with a longbow is not running the tanky boonbeast build. Their ability to not die is entirely predicated on mobility, likely with GS 3 and/or the owl merge f1. They're basically thieves with less stealth and no ports/blinks.

 

[avey.4201]

Judges intervention requires a valid path to target within 1200 range, cannot be used against perma stealth Theif/DE, is unusable in many places only generating a 40s cooldown, cannot travers stairs, useless in no port spots, the skills used with it are not instant cast, they are 1/2 second cast, if you dodge 1 single time the guard has wasted his elite, and mobility, you can kill him or run away. Remember when we cheese guards pick a target we setup, and in that half second you cant teleport too early as you have to wait as long into the animation as possible, if they pop a stealth or force change target we are dead, if they are Mesmer, warrior, or one of several other classes it will only be evaded, invulnerable, or Guard will cast trap in place without the mobility to run away like all the mobile classes. The best use of JI in many situations is as a stun break when the fight is melee range anyway. If you want broken, look no further than mirage evades.

Nice try, but there are still Rammus, Vi, and Zac in that game. Against a bad team, I can get a near-guaranteed kill on the map as Leona (support role) every 20 seconds.

Stuff like this just tends to work against lower bracket players who don't know when to fight and when to escape. Basically, it's poor map awareness and the lack of communication.

Wrong, one of them told me they have permanent protection uptime, pared with weakness and their passive they can survive twice the burst a revenant can put out. I literally used shackling wave and unrelenting assault on one who was standing still and I couldn't even get him under half hp with that burst.

So... What you're saying is, they should die instantly when you press two buttons even if they run toughness and protection build??? And did the above mentioned soulbeast down you solo??? Or did he run away after that??? Or did you kept fighting him until his teammates arrived???

[Crystal Paladin.3871]

How did this discussion turn to "soulbeast this" and "soulbeast that" when the op talks about rev and guard skills??? :/

Youre just the same as most other inexperienced players on the pvp forums. They always highlight 1 irrelevant non-meta build as an argument. Longbow sic'em soulbeasts are a 1 trick pony basically. Fun to play, can be somewhat effective in soloQ, do high dmg if you dont dodge. They have nothing to do with this discussion. There simply arent meta ranged builds, except for maybe deadeye due to their stealth. Ranged is just not good in general due to all teleports and leaps and other gap closers. Take a look at other ranged weapons and then come back.

With that said, I do think non-LoS teleports are a questionable implementation. For the most part it's not an issue to me, but there are certain contexts where it just seems like bad design.

That's all well and good but if they do have LOS loopholes wouldn't it make sense that they be applied to ALL classes or none at all . As a ranger there's nothin I like more than smoke assault riding a thieves port but god forbid there should be a rock or hill or wall or my personal favorite a stack of FUCKING BOXES they climb on top of.

 

 

Not all classes were created equal, or better put invested the proper testing or time into em. I judging this by the fact that different rules apply to different class's based on when they were created. Note that Judge's interevention is a core skill, revs obviously come from HoT and Soulbeast skills from PoF. as examples there's not actually any uniformity to how LOS is applied to individual classes/skills in pvp fights.

 

Dunno, LOS is one of my biggest pet peeves in pvp. there's blatant abuse of it on both sides and it has become a normal part of the game. I've become so jaded I'm going to say it's a Learn to play issue. you should expect the intervention, etc when you see core guards.
