DC artifact bonus OP

Hi, I think DC artifact bonus is just OP especially in pvp, and why? Look: for example GWF artifact - deals 4700 dmg, Valindra artifact deals 1700 dmg ( omg valindra...:P), water? heal 8,5k hp- nice but stil lame, banners? hmmm...+ 400 power and life steal for example and -7% enemy's dmg resist but try to use it on distance class- it make no sense. And now DC artifact- free daily. If you will meet good CW, GWF or TR with p. vorpal it's mean 20-25k dmg on start (probably less dmg on more tankiest class), eventually premade 3x CW with this artifact and 3x oppresive force with crit from EotS in the middle = practically enemy team is dead. I think this bonus is a little to big compared to another artifacts, and need to be changed maby half of this bonus for example?

"Deal with it"
No, not at all - and please, don't ask for nerfs.
As has been pointed out to you, it requires the same extremely significant investment of resources to reach that point as any other artifact.
It's a solid bonus, and I use it on some of my characters for PvE. Much less so for PvP as there are better ways to score significant burst damage. All the more so since a solid PvP spec can fill that action point bar with remarkable speed. Anyone and everyone can still enter domination with a full action bar, just do some PvE or beat up on the training dummies.
Thats my point- tell me who cares if any other artifact bonus will be nerfed? I think noone, but everyone who have DC artifact will disagree- becouse it is just OP. And i think you are not pvp player- "Anyone and everyone can still enter domination with a full action bar, just do some PvE or beat up on the training dummies" are you kidding me?;f
What? Action points are drained upon initial entry into domination.
I do agree that the DC artifact is out-of-whack with the others. Devs can do what they like with it.
Your Devoted Cleric spirit fills you with divine power, granting 100% of you total Action Points over 15 seconds. In addition, while this buff is active you Heal yourself for 869 whenever you use an Encounter power.
If you're not a Devoted Cleric, it doesn't work (and same way for all class artifact).
Why PvE player is in pvp thread and crying?
I am asking about something what in my opinion needs to be changed, it is forum.
Think before you make remarks like this on the forums, forums isn't their just for fun, a lot of these opinions and thoughts goes a long way within the Neverwinter community, and saying things like this, will just make the grapes even more sour than it already is.
First of all, i didnt say DC must be punished becouse of his artifact. I said DC's artifact is op in pvp, but if you are talking about pve, remember that the every class can have this artifact. And its not about my playstyle, i have 3 legendary artifact and making DC artifact isnt problem for me, but like i said earlier, it is to op in my opinion.
and btw. I heard something like that someday: "There is no stupid questions", so i can put on this thread if it is compatible with this game so please dont tell me what i can and what cant' do in your opinion.
Why is that? Any class can use the DC artifact And even people who use the DC artifact, don't always have that one equipped depending on team make up and job, some choose to use Defender or Vanguard Banner instead in many of the situations. Others, use Book of the Dead or Kessils.
What I suggest is to make the other artifacts more like interesting cooldowns just like the DC one already is. For some reason they're making every single new artifact have something related to damage or healing, which is wrong and bad design.
Oghma's, Lathender's and the DC artifact are the only ones that I consider interesting.
Regardless of how everyone feels, it does kind help make everything easy mode. Without this artifact you can effectively remove as much 30% of total dungeon damage. This will make them more challenging and require more teamwork.
In pvp, a DC artifact action point reduction would also help in balancing pvp much more.
Nobody likes the idea of reducing damage in this game for some reason even though there is no content in this game (including pvp) that remotely requires it (and please don't think Mod 5 will be any different).
Why should the DC artifact be so much more useful then my HR or GF artifact? it all takes the same effort and rp. I rather see some variety where they all are good options instead of just 1 or 2 good options.
The more you post this stuff, the farther from you goal you are.
They won't buff up the other class artifacts, they will instead nerf the DC sigil to the point where it is so bad nobody will use it.
Trust me on this. Just ask people that leveled Raven, or Emblem how they feel after losing 3-10 millions of AD.
The GWF artifact is also probably a staple in every PVP toon due to the passive stats it gives (power and HP do not have softcaps to the extent that other stats do)
To be honest either nerfing the DC and GWF artifacts or buffing the other classes artifacts are both fine with me. I am not using them and just want the artifacts I do use to be seen as equally viable choices.
nerfing those 2 (which is funny since 1 just has a good set of stats) will not make your artifacts any more viable except for whatever stats they actually give. and most of us don't actually like the stats on cleric arty, but the effect is convenient for dungeons and somewhat in pvp depending on class.
the difference is that the cleric arty is practically the only useful arty to be placed in the active slot. a few thousand damage from other arties is irrelevant just like frostburn and the other armor enchants.
every top build has it pve or pvp.
most people farmed it from scratch so i dont think it needs a nerf
maybe just some other viable options would be nice which are not 5 mill ad
I personally don't find DC Sigils worth equipping in either PvE or PvP, but if it's ubiquitously useful as some say, it's unique among current endgame PvP gear. DC artifacts are free to all for a minimal time investment. (2 days leveling + 2 weeks DR campaign) It isn't gated behind nebulous lockbox reward percentages or insanely low RNG grinds. Feel free to get one yourself.
That's a rather selfish thing to say. Buff me and everything I choose to use, nerf everything else. If you think those artifacts are better options than what you're using, then go get it, it's not difficult.
Have the gear and skills, but lack the friends to play with? Come and apply for Essence of Aggression. We have been here and strong since beta. (Immature, rude, and arrogant people will not be accepted)
But anyway, sometime soon I'm sure another artifact will take over this one for pvp.
