Leading mages and assassins of each server...

Regarding extremely geared water bards in general (Eyrda has two of them, DeadlyTones and Kadanza), there is no point even theory-crafting or thinking about how to beat them alone in a fair fight unless you are one of the following:

-fire mage
-venom sin
-physical warrior

Other classes hardly even hit more than their bubble heals. At 100 resis and 50k mana all conventional damage is effectively 0 against bubble.

For example level 80 mastery warriors + a priest will lose to tones, simply because he is literally not doing damage. The only way to win for a warrior is hope that he will disconnect or lag, and autoattack your BoR lol.

Imo a frost mage could stand a chance as well. Depending on build you can drain whole mana in about half a minute while enemy is perma-transformed (if you have swift transform runes, adv frost realm and boundary maxed with runes and pop magic meditation which also happens to increase water res by a big deal). Water bards have just badge to get out of it unless they have true runed voice of freedom which I have yet to see a true rune for. Also fury of ice takes 4 hits off their shield and ice crystal works as a stun bypassing shield immunity.

This is just theory since I'm on a different server and haven't seen those bards in action nor a frost mage as uber geared as those bards, but I think it would be possible on equal gears/mast/resists of course.

On a side note, are there such amazingly geared frost mages on Eyrda or are all fire?

I dont see why crit defense is something to aim for though, if so you dont have the crit dodge instead, vs alot of classes dodge prevent CC. I never said i will have any chance against him or anyone else in eyrda so its no pride battle going on. Im fairly inactive anyway barely playing just checking forums and botting ingame.. Hopefully will gain interest in the game once cross arena and fjord come if it does.

Our teambuild is based on 2 tanks and one anti eva dps usally, at least my own team. So I got priest bubble nonstop aswell can trigger anima + mm bubble when needed. Kept me from dying so far at least..

because on Eyrda, there are warriors with 420+ crit damage and 70+ crit chance after assault (100+ with DU).

can ice mages stack another debuff after transforming? if they can't, priest can easily purify the transform. and their shield is 12 hits
there are some amazing geared mages on Eyrda but they are in the same guild so they wont fight each other.


anyways, i just made a clip fighting DeadlyTones' team in arena yesterday. see it for yourself

Crit dodge prevent from some stun and silence water bard are immun to this when he have sonata of water so permanently thats why he go only for crit def

Yea I meant in general speaking not bard
and no water cant debuff over trans only fire mage

About the warrior DU that can be prevented pretty easily, first of all you can still survive that, even i can and im not a so called tank + you can CC and focus at the warrior that certain time, DU is nothing you can trigger all the time. You can't really build everything around it as it can be partly "countered" = ignored. And yes on illfyue we have 400+ crit dmg 80 pts fervor blood warriors too with 100% crit chance in DU, i'd guess all servers have most classes with OP stats? Only thing which put servers apart is diffrent CS levels, and teambuilds/playstyle.

i don't know who you are, nor do i care (to be honest) but i think i speak for many people when i say: thank you eyrda players for your contribution towards fw so that they can keep this almost dead game alive. thank you tones for all you lv5 gems and all that stuff, shows you really "love" this game and the company that runs it.

I was told crit damage can never drop below 100% no matter what the difference between crit def and crit dmg are :O

I read a while ago in a thread regarding anima crits, if both a regular crit and anima crit were to happen simultaneously the game would calculate both and the one with highest damage would be the one to be done. I would have guessed something similar would apply in this case: if a crit would do less damage than a non-crit you just wouldn't crit, but it seems this is not the case. Never tried it, this is just how I thought it would work.
