Knight's Valor combined with Supremacy causes doom to my PC

The **** is going on. Guardian Fighter are destroying people's PC's right now in PVP.

When a reflect GF uses Knight's valor and activates SoS. The entire map starts lagging HORRIBLY, causing HUGE FPS drop.

Not only they bring nothing but also cause lag, great.

Yes, a large portion of GF abilities that relate to tick damage and show many visual effects like KV and SoS cause a memory leak in the game, which results in large FPS drops for everyone in the vicinity. this has been the case since beta, but only has caused problems now because KV and SoS reflect builds are so insanely good.

Similar to how the problem of roar arose, it was the same since beta, until they buffed the HAMSTER out of destroyer Gwfs and so being able to spam a 3s root with a 5.5s cooldown coupled with a 5.5s cooldown on takedown (2s if missed)

But the problem here is mainly the visual effects, and the visual effects proc on every hit (including dots) and so it severely impacts FPS as the game trys to cope with the amount of data coming from the effects

Good example on roar and the beta, same thing goes for CW's icy rays, who's now 4X buffed due to multiple feats, now people notice it's undodgeable and cry about it. Same thing for shocking exeuction (Which was.. triple nerfed) and also Terryfing Impact LITERALLY not doing what the tooltip says (Prones instead of stun, bypasses Shield, ITC, and unstoppable).

10 GF using SoS at the same time literally causes sos for my client one day. It was 5 seconds of fun though lol Felt like the reality is shredding

I used to have issues with fps drops when things like this happened. What I did was go into my graphics settings and change "max physics objects" to a lower number. for me, I set it to 100.

No matter what graphics settings you set the game to using the automatic slider it never changes this slider. You have to change it yourself, and it seems to be the number 1 computer killer in Neverwinter in my experiences.

Once in a while, and after every log in /tex_memory_unload_threshold 100000000

It seems it gets extra fun when a Warlock places Warlock's Bargain on a GF running Supremacy of Steel.

This thing is in desperate need of a change, not just because of the lag, though. It also causes AP to build very quickly, allowing the GF to maintain his daily more or less permanently.

Overall GFs build AP fast, so what good will nerfing one power do? I am a Tactician, I can perma-daily because I generate AP while taking damage. Nerfing SOS will not affect my ability to generate AP.

A lot of frustrated people just want a GF nerf is all. So they look for any and all possibilities to express that notion
