LordMorgul.9845 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Can we stop the trend of changing and ruining mechs in pve classes becouse of pvp or wvw problems ? why u cant just split the modes and the skill ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kharmin.7683 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 It might be helpful to the devs if you provide examples of what you mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reikken.4961 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 As noted above, I have no idea what you're talking about, but I'll preemptively say that while skill splits are great, they can only be used for minor changes. Like as an extreme example it'd be pretty dumb to have axe be a ranged weapon in PvE but a melee one in PvP. On the other hand, having it simply do less damage in PvP is fine.

gateless gate.8406 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Splitting PVE and PVP abilities can be good, but only to an extent. A class should not function radically differently across game modes. To clarify, I'm not saying that a PVE tank should be able to enter PVP and start "tanking" human players -- I'm saying that when you enter PVP, that powerful skill you love to use in PVE should be roughly as powerful, and certainly should function exactly the same way. A player should not enter PVP and have half their skills suddenly hit like wet noodles, nor vice-versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SloRules.3560 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 What are you talking about? This whole patch was centered on PvE, infact it completely destroyed WvW chrono. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeyspit.3965 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Just a guess, OP is referring to the change to Revenant Shackling Wave because players were getting OTK in sPvP, while it rarely presented as an issue in WvW, and Power Revs are still towards the bottom of the pile in organized PvE.

Maleman.7435 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 If skills are separate between PvE and PvP to such a large extent, it'll ruin the new player experience or for even older players wanting to change profession. The familiarity you are meant to build around your profession as you level up can get completely meaningless when entering a PvP mode due to this split.
