kittyfur.6459 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 So an ele can hold his own against 3 on a point. Almost indefinitely. GOD level heals, you cannot kill them, and despite that their damage output is pretty great. This is simply broken. when is this going to get fixed? This is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widmo.3186 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Yeah, because spellbroken cannot do the same with stances, fc etc. For mender - > bring 2 big damage dealers (idk, rev+scourge), hit between dodges, try to land as many chills and immobilizes, and overall, yes its bunker, but if you know how to kite it shouldnt deal much damage to you. For fireweaver - > dodge fire, disengage when in earth 5, and just purge, compared to mender its healing potential is much lower, especially when 2v1. For FA - > just dodge and kill, loool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor Boyer.6524 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Weaver is strong 1v1. I don't really see it as a sustain class when it gets 2v1'd however. It has shit mobility and low HP pool. In my experiences it just dies quickly when +'d by reasonably competent players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nath Forge Tempete.1645 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I'm not playing for like 2 months in sPvp (cause game is boring without new specs or new builds) but ele had (and still has now) 2 options for weaver: 1) Going "bunker" menders (more of sustain but whatever) and deals wet noodle dmg. 2) Going Sage and gets crazy condi bursts if the opponent is not aware of primordial stance + glyph. But this one has way less sustain. (still has some tho but less) With build 2) I cannot imagine how I could be able to 1v3 and be able to cleave all 3. Unless the guy is godmode at kitting/chasing and the opponents are a bit terribad at it. But it's more a gameplay issue than a build issue. Maybe I'm wrong eh !

True balance like in an old school FPS can never be accomplished in an MMO because you have classes that means you have always something what the others don't have and when you really try hard you alienate people because you destroying those classes/builds ( yes I'm a victim of this too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game is at a loss well going back to Everquest which has also quite a lot of flaws, but at least it's balanced on PvE. Come to think of it, maybe we should just have PVP and PvE be two different servers entirely, so we don't have to nerf with a sledgehammer Pve. I am sick of Pve being effected because of huge sweeping nerfs to PVP and WVW. Having mechanical changes that affect WVW SPVP and PVE is too much, so, for instance, nerfing the mechanics of chronomancer because of SPVP might kill it in PvE, or the changes to scourge mechanics with shade which devastate it in PVE, but is needed for balancing WVW.

ZDragon.3046 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Ive not seen a weaver 1v3 a semi average team even more so if something that can take its boons is in the fight Burn damage is a bit too high yes but overall its not a 1v3 sustainer on a point. I think you just must have made a mistake and ate passive burn procs instead of just kiting for a few moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(which was already outdated to be honest but still sad). Ele staff builds are a joke too in PvP . Chrono got completely destroyed in all game modes . Druid was nerfed unnecessary because its counter part chrono felt flat in PvE Back to the topic a bit ele has the highest risk in this game because low health and for pvp/wvw the class has not stealth unlike mesmer and thief. Swordweaver get even further in PvE or better in fractals CMS this reflects in a unexpected way while back in the staff weaver day you always had some with you. It all about DH and reaper this days maybe dardevil. Eles are rare chrono never seen why? Because the amount of effort don't pay back and with this high risk built the chance that you and in a result your group wipe is too high. Basically you are punished for taking this built and this is true for PvP too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Crinny.6190 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Just to put clear the same guy said weaver was OP back in August aswell so unless there are 0 Weavers in the game it is broken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephoid.4263 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Any durable ele has very little damage. Much the same as a scrapper, they will take forever to kill you. If they are 1v3ing, its only because of evades, which quickly run out. http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?vhAQNAseGWmUATUjTCA-jBipAB5pULLdAIqEUr9HqWbQ2KLAQ1k0UzgUA+NzC-e Run this build and you can sustain with eles. The pulsing symbols and torch 4 give you a ton of forgiveness to hitting at correct invervals. Ele only have condi cleanse in water, so any burning stacks that stick are incredibly strong.

Khalisto.5780 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 seems like gold 2- Until this point I could tank 3 ppl cuz yes, you're tanky but ppl mindless spam skills on you like ok he just used soin of fate to dodge my gs f1 now i will bull rush and get a immune message cuz he has stability and im not watching his buff bar That s the level of gameplay when a weaver tanks 3 ppl, and when all dodges are gone the ele just ride the lightining away and ppl come straight to forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantheman.3589 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Weaver is very strong 1v1 and fire weaver is actually very resistant to a plus 1. If a competent thief pluses you the ele can just kite and survive almost all the time but if they choose not to kite without cds it’ll die. Rn weaver is very strong when played right because the best most classes can do in a plus is push it off node for a few secs unless you are plussing at the right time get lucky or play something with crazy damage which I think DA staff thief can fairly ezily.

Nerf ele posts are a thing again? > > Yeah, Probably because no one knows how to play against one so they go full melee onto a fireweaver and wonder why they die to burning I suspect it might be becouse gamemode revolves around capturing small objectives, thus forcing us to walk into the weavers, there are too many ways to force people off node and weaver does by existing, not sure if anything should be done about it but since weaver is strong already, and its main competition for side noding gets nerfed( warrior,holo,cmirage) the least devs could do is to be ready to drop quick patch if they become too strong. I would personally keep an eye out on weaver and firebrand. wouldnt be suprised if we were to see 3-4 of them in each team every game after the patch drops.

Crab Fear.1624 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 On any nerf thread, for any class, we always find the same clap back regardless of form: * it's a L2P issue * this doesn't happen above gold * you are just making stuff up and combining 3 different builds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
