Crazy.6029 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 They come in many ways, often disguised and seemingly reasonable but in the end, they want X class/ ability nerf or Y class/ ability nerf. This isn't to say that nerfs are never warranted just that there seems to be so many and really just based out of bias or an inability to overcome a particular amount of difficulty. Wouldn't it be better if people went to their own class forums and asked for buffs to deal with X,Y class/ ability or even advice from other players or am I just being insensitive to those that are struggling with personal viability or performance?

DeathPanel.8362 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 90% of the time "nerf x" threads are started off by people that don't know what they're talking about and want things changed specifically so that their personal non-optimal play style benefits from it. That's what I've noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaswer.5246 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 As long as they explain why they think a nerf is needed and what they whould do im fine. What i cant stand is the posts like "nerf this because i dont like it and i am right whatever you think".And i think we all agree with those. In fact i think we should make more posts giving opinions (respectfully)and telling anet what we see they should change .And those pro players should give their opinion as they know better than most of us about their classes in their game modes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaswer.5246 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 But that doesnt mean we should delete all the threads about nerfs . I have also seen people like that and sometimes the answers were not better . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaswer.5246 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Its just... I think we all should calm down and diacuss things with the right way if someone is being too full of him/herself well just tell a mod to 'mute ' them and thats all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etterwyn.5263 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Naw, it's a healthy part of the game. The unhealthy part is seeing half a dozen threads on the same subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaswer.5246 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I dont know... If they re talking without knowledge i think its good to tell them why theyre wrong and that way they get better as players . But on the other hand its true that a lot of posts about nerfs are annoying...its like a deadend i dont know how could it be solved. (But isnt it gteat to discuss things calmly and politely?)

Clownmug.8357 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 People get their post deleted if they discuss matchups so what else is there to talk about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HnRkLnXqZ.1870 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Although those threads are a bit childish, they are "feedback." Good changes need feedback, positive and negative. On the other hand, the threads are a good way to find out if the criticism is justified. If you know your class well and see someone else, asking the developers to nerf it, you are free to join the discussion and state your point of view. If it is just someone complaining that he lost a fight, the arguments can be easily neutralized. Sometimes the topic creator has a strange point of view or misconception about how a certain skill really works. So you can contribute your knowledge and experience. Sometimes things are over performing, balancing classes is by far the most difficult job in the staff. Mistakes are made. If that is the case, it is good to know as much as possible about the problem. The more people contribute their experiences, the easier it is to determine the root of the problem. The forums exist for us to discuss about the content. We give feedback, ideas and suggestions to make future content better. Opposite to the common misconception, the forums are read by the staff. They act and react according to our behavior here. They also read reddit and use a few more social media platforms. But writing on these boards has a purpose and is intended by ANet. Share your ideas, opinions, experiences and thoughts. Contribute your part to make GW2 better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stand The Wall.6987 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 what else would we talk about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Celtaine.3760 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Yes. After years of nerf after nerf after nerf after nerf ad nauseum it's clear that balance isn't out because prof A needs another nerf it's out because prof B is in dire need of a buff to bring it up to level status. If we all become "OP" nobody will be. Or some other paraphrasing from the Incredibles. Because it looks like it's that or we continue to get everything nerfed into the ground so we all do 0 damage and just sit there hoping to bore eachother to death. Sounds like hyperbole but this is why I don't do PvP or WvW anymore, it's a continuous mess all the time we solve one issue just to create another. Evidently, because we're still having more or less the same conversations 6 years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaijinGuy.8476 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I said yes because most of them are just “omg wtf I just got one shot plz nerf x” The posts that have legitimate reasoning behind them are great but are few and far between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazyDaisy.4107 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I like the threads. The justifications listed for some specs that are equally as cheesy and devoid of skill as previous specs that received complaints...really brings to light which dirty little secrets players have hiding in their arsenal.

Vasdamas Anklast.1607 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 This game has many issues. Classes with too many safestomps, too many revive bots, too many oneshot you from 1500 and run aways, too much stealth and too many classes that can maintain 25 stacks of might on their own. (and very often vulnerability too) So let people complain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeceiverX.8361 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 The powercreep is real. Can people not see this? Maybe there would be fewer threads if there was even some semblance of balance in the game and combat didn't feel like glorified Rock Paper Scissors.

L A T I O N.8923 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Even if it's true; overall damage in game is way to high, downstate is meeh balanced, warclaw is utter bullshit to have add. And to be fair i think the game is too toxic to play, yesterday i got jumper on my zealot-geared(mainly) firebrand because hé thought i was minstrel (also explains the overall to high damage) Since matchup threads are not allowed I wonder whats left lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephiroth.4217 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Most of it is feedback... Until someone says to nerf my main which is Tempest, then I tell them to eff off and get gud like everyone else does when thier main is questioned lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
