KrHome.1920 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 WvW itself is a toxic gamemode because it's not balanced. Solo and smallscale roaming is destroyed by balancing incompetence. - deadeye, mirage, soulbeast - not fixed for months now, two of them even got reworks which changed nothing - 8s double endure pain, still broken regarding the amount of damage you can deal on PvE gear - revenant staff5, still broken regarding the amount of damage you can deal on PvE gear - and so on... of course this will pull idiots into the game, who can exploit these issues to showcase mental illnesses (the desire to feel superior, even if it is pointless for a nomal thinking person, because it is a result of exploiting poor balancing) Zerging is destroyed by matchmaking incompetence. E.g. Kodash is labeld as a "full" server, but still the perfect server for pip farming as we have the outnumbered buff for 19 hours/day (from 11pm till 6pm).

Between me and Kiri? Idk we’ve fought so many times... When he played warrior, he won 2 of the 3. These duels were so long (like 5+ minutes) and every moment was intense, so I’m just glad that the fights were good On ranger he’s basically god. I don’t remember the times I’ve fought him on ranger in WVW. In Spvp we had 4 duels, and he won 3 of the 4. These duels were pretty short. My reaper in spvp is also not as good build wise as my WVW variant so I wasn’t really expecting to win these On thief I’m pretty sure I won most of them. He’s an extraordinary player. It I think he doesn’t play thief much so that’s probably why. Other times we’ve clashed was in small scale and those were very fun and we have our back and forths As a reaper I think we were pretty much matched evenly in terms of how our duels go down. However he’s much much better than me, I know that for a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eletrikid.1268 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 To the people saying is another QQ and mirage op thread, no it's not, is about people playing mirage being super salty, I'm not a addressing the character itself. And at least, from the negativity the post was addressing, people are getting along, even discussing their experiences, I'm happy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eletrikid.1268 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 On another hand, I have to agree in part with the soulbeast being second in saltiness. Just today I encountered 3 soulbeasts who jumped on my corpse while me being outnumbered, the first was because I was one annoying thief trying to split them up, second blocked me without reason, just blocked and third was on my staff thief try, he raged cause I already killed him and couldn't pew pew through my evade frames so he sticked with blobs everytime I encountered him, was overrun once and he jumped on me. Fun times some people would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, zerging is a part of gameplay, in my case, went last week vs baruch Bay and was fun, between people always in parties and zerging/blob all of that with a support class + dps and mirage/scourge for condis, couldn't get much of a roaming duels or were too far between.

DeadlySynz.3471 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I think it's the types of people it draws. Mirage is flat out useless in WvW compared to chronomancer. So if a player has taken a Mirage into WvW, they aren't there to offer any type of support, they are likely there to grief other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What else would you expect? You saw what the HoT specs were like, and following the same philosophy that made them so broken, the PoF specs had to be even more ridiculous. Massively dialing back the amount of boons and condis that are farted out by every single skill and trait in this game would do so much to balance it, purely because you would have to do something to get boons, and plan it out instead of just mashing buttons. That's how it should be. But Anet balance team keeps sprinting in the opposite direction and hasn't even looked back over their shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how it should be. But Anet balance team keeps sprinting in the opposite direction and hasn't even looked back over their shoulder. I think one thing that would help bring order to the mess ANet has created is creating a baseline. So for example in core your weapon skills would look like this in cool downs: Auto, 8s, 10s, 15s, 20s and greatsword on warrior is a great example of a weapon that's not seen cool down reductions at all though it's cool downs have always been a tad lower than the norm, there's still this mantra of each skill increases in cool down by about 5s. So establishing a more strict cool down system and applying it to the expansion weapons would help especially if you then create rules on how much a skill can do for it's cool down while also establishing a guideline on how much damage a skill can do for it's cool down/number of abilities/cast.

OriOri.8724 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 @"apharma.3741" I mostly agree, but I don't think its enough. Just due to general powercreep over the past few years, to bring this back to where it should be for good balance and design, ANet would have to touch ~95% of the skills and traits in the game, instead of just making guidelines to follow for skills. But you did touch a major point, there need to be guidelines on how much a skill/trait can do given its CD, and there **also** needs to be guidelines on how much can be stacked onto a skill/mechanic through traits. I mean, shatters are probably the worst offender here, followed by steal and burst skills I think, in that you can trait them to do like 3x the amount of things they do baseline. That needs to be toned down. But the biggest "single" change they could make is just toning down what a lot of skills and a few traits do. Damage, movement, block, evade, heal, every boon, every condi, every condi cleansed are all different things, and really no skill should be doing more than 3, 4 of those max, (and that is counting individual boons/condis applied) with the majority of skills doing ~2 of those. There can of course be exceptions, but they need to be the exception, not the rule, and they need to be on decently high CDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The easiest 1v1 class to play always attracts scrubs who mistake the class carry for their own skill. These players tend to get easily salty, because they subconsciously know that they are actually pretty bad and can't win with anything else. Exactly, no one ever gets salty because they consciously picked a class they dont have the skills to win with. That's why the forums are only filled with mesmer mains complaining about other classes being OP while no one posts about mesmers being OP. Especially not thieves.

Nepster.4275 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 The thing that you met with 2 salty players does not mean that there is any problem with the class... I agree, Mirage needs a nerf but in a way it still stays playable and not like most of the QQ guys by deleting it. Mesmer forums could be renamed to "Ask for nerf". Because if i go to any other subforum i dont see people complaining for perma stealth one shot deadeye, boonbeast, the niche hammer guardian or anything else there are 2 answers for this, one is that its normal to get one shot from 1.5k range from stealth and its normal to be the best duelist in the game OR maybe people just dont care about other classes being OP too because "Deadeye is OP? Nah, we can always ask for mirage nerfs" And now honestly, i feel sorry for you that 2 kids killed you and that they BMed because they were playing a "broken" class. But can people stop posting this all the time, i think if any dev comes here, will have a great understanding that its OP but what is missing is actually EXPLAINING how its OP and how it could be tuned down. I understand that people need a place to tell their bad experience with/against a class, but atleast give some ideas that in what aspect it should be toned down, because saying that "Its OP.Nerf! " will not help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The easiest 1v1 class to play always attracts scrubs who mistake the class carry for their own skill. These players tend to get easily salty, because they subconsciously know that they are actually pretty bad and can't win with anything else. the scrub doesnt need to win with 'anything else', the scrub does win so why change it or bother with 'what if i was playing X?' questions. on the other side the 'pro' refusing to play the 'carry' build keeps losing to the scrub for knowingly refusing better options. losing is a much better reason to get salty. i can assure you that you will get more salt from your opponents if you do play one of the carry builds then the other way round. the guy you kill while passing by without putting a thought to the fight is often not worth the salt. so with carry build you only get salty from too outnumbered or other carry builds, the selfproclaimed pros that do refuse half of the games skills and traits, do not even matter in your game as you dont notice them among the occaisonal daily guys you kill. now being too outnumbered or other carry build also do make those refusing better options salty, so i dont see how the scrub is being more salty.

The only thing I think should be toned down on condi mirage is the ability for clones to spam conditions, just so is engaging in terms of dodging condi burst and not being spammed by condis cause you approached a mirage with some clones. You dodged the shatter condi, gj and reward yourself with a couple seconds with little condi pressure, not you dodged it and there's new clones aplying condi pressure just by aa. Anyway, not a nerf mirage post, like I said, is about the people playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need to ask for a nerf, there's a miriad of posts that do that. And yeah, I did that cause he could be good for all that I know, I could see that on another class or a power mesmer/mirage but not on the condi mesmer. If he is good, great, more training for me.
