So, When Are You Nerfing That Cleric Blue Shield Skill?

Surely this isn't mean to be stacked with multiple clerics, you are removing the need for tanks with this skill if stacked. One version of it enough, but to have 2 clerics using it, they take close to zero damage.

I don't care if the skill is nerfed for PvP, but I have no interest in seeing its PvE effectiveness reduced.
Same goes for that horrid Rogue daily.

It's a PvE concern because it invalidates the GF class
Too bad OP said it was a PvE complaint, basically making the idea that a tank is useless when the cleric can make a tank from anyone.
No no no. What invalidates the GF class is the idiots playing the GF. None of this whiny thread HAMSTER holds any water. There are plenty of GF's and Clerics playing that are having the time of there lives and kicking *** at the class. Terrible players are flooding these forums. Thats the problem
Trolls....I think you mean trolls are on the forums.
Yes yes yes. People running t2s and castlenever are currently exploiting this and bring 2-3 clerics.
You can bring multiple clerics and have anyone tank because the damage mitigation on multiple shields is staggering. And since a cleric brings a lot more to a group than a GF (if the GF no longer is needed to tank) it makes the GF pointless.
Astral Shield is also not the all powerful ability some players think it is. Since the game is based on avoiding the damage areas, you will find that some times it is not possible to simple stand in the circle as the red damage would still get past the defense/healing the circle provides. Also, most of the boss fights require movement, so being in a stationary cirlce all the time just isn't possible.
Once again, speaking as a DC, I think it's moronic that a GF would call for nerfs on a healers pve abilities.
Oh ffs, are you really that incompetent?
They don't want a single application of the astral shield reduced, they want the stacking aspect of bringing multiple clerics reduced. By stacking shields you can reduce damage to the point where a GF isn't actually needed to take hits.
If you aren't playing through the high end content, and you haven't experienced the effectiveness of this first hand, you really need to stuff a sock in it, because you're arguing through a position of biased ignorance.
The moment this game went to open beta & the masses could enter the game, these forums turned from a place to actually discuss the game into a place to post whine threads.
Because, of course, the LFG tool will always put you in a group with a tank.

I can read, and yes I thought it was clear that I don't have a problem with stacking DC & their abilities. You should also look up the meaning of incompetent before you start branding other players with it.
Astral Shield is not an exploit. They are running 2-3 clerics because they cant figure out how to do it with just 1 cleric. Again, bad players, with bad ideas, learning to cope. Next thing you'll see is terrabad players having 5 man cleric teams do everything. I wish the admins would lock all these stupid nerf this nerf that buff this buff that threads. They have no place on forums 16 ****ing days after a game is still unofficially not even released. You ****s need to spend more time playing, and less time having your period all over the forums.
You might want to rethink why a GF might have a problem with it then, and I'm quite clear on the meaning of incompetent... You continue to embody it.
Ohhhh, I see, so when you can exploit a mechanic to make things easier it doesn't need to be fixed. It just makes players "bad players".
This is seriously the argument your going with? GTFO with that weak nonsense.
This is the only argument for it that has any weight
GF's need to stop complaining & learn how their class is supposed to be played in this game instead of how they wish it is supposed to play.
You call me "incompetent" in the first place? Why? Because you assumed I miss-read the original post. That is not incompetency. Your assumption was wrong to begin with.
The bad players are the GF's whining on here.
I play a TR, and your still too daft to figure out why you're an idiot. Has nothing to do with you misreading anything.
My group runs double cleric, double CW, 1 rogue. A tank only slows us down because our clerics and myself can tank just fine with double stacked seals.
"GTFO with that weak nonsense" is all I can say to that.
I imagine, you lost this argument 10 minutes ago.
no, poor encounter designs requiring you to have this level of dmg resistance on everyone to comfortably pass content that is supposed to be puggable is the issue.
threat and gf issues are only part of the problem.
No, it's a forum, you can't "win" here.
The puggability of content only a week into release is debatable. lots of stuff that was considered hard in some games at release becomes trivial within a month or so, and without balance adjustments. It's often just a matter f better gear, more experience, and adapted strategies.
I'm not in favor of continuing to allow the exploiting a mechanic just so people can comfortably pug content, especially when its leaving one class out in the cold and artificially propping the stacking of another up. Not that I blame people for doing so.
No, you just label them "incompetent", "ignorant" & "bad players". Ok...
