Are you *sure* you're not a politician? Because that really sounds like trying to manipulate and pressure the public into accepting a desired function that they dont agree with. As polls shown, the majority seemed in favor of keeping downstate even after the downed state week. I also find it funny how one can claim that it would make the game "more fast paced" when one of the most vocal complaints on the forums is that people are getting instakilled by people that most definetly does not "need" downed state.

Great idea, right? > It is a great idea...It shows each player where their skill truly lies and how reliant or not they are on others. Also reveals where you need to improve as a WvWer which, trust me, some people need to know. You cant get better if you know know all of your weaknesses. If you refuse to acknowledge that, then acknowledge the true fact that you cannot please everyone and that some people will have to be unhappy for a week.

gebrechen.5643 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 "Skill" in times of oneshot builds. Great joke. Which fact are we talk about? Can you show those facts and back them with numbers or are we going the "American way of arguing" where people put a theory somewhere which they can't back by facts and still believe it has to be true because they believe?

One week without it after years with it. It's impressive that the polls were as close as they were after just one week. A few more weeks of no downed state and I think more people might change their mind and the polls will shift. If we're going to be majoritarian about it a ten point swing would be enough to put the majority in favor of removing downed state. I'm confident that with more experience we will see at least that much of a shift in public opinion perhaps more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 100% health on down food, a down player can be resurrected in less than 1 sec by just pressing F. Stomp takes 3 seconds Think before you post.

anduriell.6280 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 In my point of view: **We don't need to remove downstate, just need to remove the action "F" to ress while in combat.** * traits will still work. * Blobs will not benefit from the sheer numbers to ressbot a downed. That kind of fix will gives also more relevance to support builds in the game, because they can do something no other build can (if build for it). The tech is already there (we can't ress a full dead while in combat) so it should be minimal effort. Still the downed can be helped if there is just one ranger pewpewing.

Curunen.8729 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Still would rather have a 2 strike system for downstate: - first time going down is normal, can be ressed in combat, but gain 10 minute debuff which means... - second time within that 10 mins goes immediately to full dead (reset debuff on respawn) Would stop endless res chains on the same player as effectively "killing them twice" (if ressed and within the 10 min debuff timer) would finish them fully.

How downed state is powercreep? its allways been on the game...also, damage its so high on the game, that if you decide to stop to rez a downed ally, you might end up dead yourself...just poison or CC the target to prevent it, its not hard.

Don't see the point of removing the F other than you won't get the message in the chat box that you're in combat... Edit: Unless you're talking about a possible area zone that would consider you in combat instead of as an individual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be awesome. This! What you dscribed is the most annoying thing in WvW. It's just a waste of my lifetime. I'd even grant the enemy the bonus points they get for stomping for free when I press that button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRead. I never said it was a powercreep mechanic. That's why it has the lines "while we're at it or better yet, before it". Meaning you get rid of powercreep in parallel to removing downstate or before removing downstate because a huge massive blob of QQQQQQQQQ will follow. You don't need an explanation of parallel now, do you? Now, since you have mentioned downstate being a powercreep, that's a different matter. Just because something has always been in the game doesn't mean it or isn't for the best or if there is or not a better option out there. Do i think it's powercreep? Yes, yes I do. Does it carry you though? ;3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And puts the ressing player in combat. Try playing without running any food or utilities then come back and try again... I haven't run those in over 4 years.

Slyverine.7081 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 downed state is a core mechanic of the game . Actually it is one of the things that makes it different from other similar games.It will never be removed so you can wipe your tears. If they want to add consumables/traits for more dmg to downed state, be my guest, it will actually be a loss to anyone who uses it, if it is in favor of actual dmg increase.Then you would again complain it is useless. As a weaver i love downed state and it's rally, it actually makes me play a bit more in bigger fights where a random crit , a thief/war going for the backlane, retalition can down you in 1 sec.

avey.4201 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 You have a warrior icon so I assume you play warrior, warrior can already kill a down player in 2-3 swings of their sword, actually faster than stomping. As a guardian people res faster than I can dps in zerk gear, and when down I'd be happy to have the warriors second life over the junk symbol I'm stuck with. What again are you complaining about?
