Dragon glyphs, ruining pvp.

These glyphs are just sad...being able to deal continuous 600 dmg to a player even if you don't hit him ? why was this even put in the game lol. It was bad enough with all the rich players spending about 30k ad per match for all buffs and now these glyphs....its just getting too much.
And to answer the question I know people will say. I don't want to buy these glyphs, I know everyone can get them but just because they are accessible doesn't mean I'm going to use them.
I have seen a few players with these now and when I was fighting another gf he was reflect based so when I hit him he reflected back a bit of dmg, but this was procing the glyphs so I was getting 600 dmg even through guard over and over and went to half hp in a few seconds ? I have 47k hp 46% dr and 21% tenacity, no way a glyph should do that much dmg....

Glyphs do "piercing" damage. Even if you deflect it, those 600 numbers just appear with curved arrow meant you actually did deflect that damage, but it still pierces through everything.
Exactly my point though, it seems a little much for just a slot bonus

Things are not fine in PVE by a long shot. The CW change might help a bit but if anything, PVE is more imbalanced than PVP. And there's no reason to use red dragon in PVE as the content is not hard enough to warrant it.
if you attack anyone on the GFs team using these skills. YOU DIE .
Throw on guarded assualt for anytime supremacy is down and you basically have an invincible team. If you try to kill the GF that's causing the problems you die.
In PvE however CW's and GWF's are the only "core" classes, GF's HR's and SW's are sometimes useful, and DC's and TR's are completely useless (at least DC's are helpful in some boss fights, but TR's really don't do anything)
Yeah, pve is way more unbalanced than pvp. Pvp is like rock, paper scissors I think. One class like cw for example can kill a hr quite easy but then a hr can kill a gwf very easy and so on. With all this unbalance in the game though it just annoys me that the devs ad pointless items like these dragon glyphs and a cockatrice...I mean really who thought the glyphs would be a good idea ?

I agree with it in 100%
U can't mightate and deflect damage from glyphs and that is very, very unfair.
Crixus if u will have 3 CW in oponent team with red dragon greater glyphs that be ruining pvp (yesterday my GF meet 4 times premade composite from that and every moment i get 1800 dmg ;])
Glyphs are standard procedure for cryptic... new items are OP...
That items make PVP totally unbalanced but who from cryptic think about pvp?? No1
Few guilds dont use it on pvp-they know its totally overpowered-respecta for them... how long they'll be not using glyphs?? Maybe already used hehe ;]
IMO using glyphs in pvp should be blocked
I dont get it. How is it even possible? They keep breaking their own game constantly, mod after mod after mod. Then finally when all <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> is fixed and we have the chance to play, and new mod comes out.
When I said this I was not referring to balance in general. I was referring to how the glyphs work in pve. That is all I meant. The glyphs are fine and do not need to be changed.

Right now you don't even need to think how to play with these glyphs, CW - hold RoF WTF; HR - apply careful attack and run around like a moron or if your IQ is higher then 50, apply aimed strike dot and watch your target die; GF - use ItF and KV, rise up your shield and spam /laugh; TR - PotB and go stealth, CoS out of there to finish the work. Only GWF suffers from inability to braindead. I killed 12k SW on my DC with red dragons by just holding left mouse btn in divine mode.
Don't even say a word about PvE, these glyphs make no difference in already trivialized content.

People from "top" guilds lost all their honor in this module. I inspect them in pmvspm - basically people that I would expect to be something like a class leader in skill, experience, gear... RED GLYPHS. Inspect another - Red Glyphs.
I am disappointed to say the least. Even the people that I expected quite a bit from use them.
So I suppose there's nothing left for me to do if I PvP but keep 2 Red Gyphs in my bag and inspect people when we start. If I see them wearing them and I appreciate it would be a close game, I will just put them on myself.
It is a huge shame that things came to this.
Don't even get me started on LEAVING PvP cause being Leaderboard fail scared.
I am taking a look to the history of PvP games of a friend that still runs lots of it, unlike myself. What do I see?
Half of the games end up against 1, 2, maybe 3 adversaries. These are classical "I am dumping the game so I won't drop in the leaderboard" occurrences.
Even worse are the cases when somebody kicks his party so he can then leave without the penalties...
It's the worse stage Neverwinter PvP was in all the game's life.
Red dragon glyphs are just broken amongst many other things, i just put 2 on turn on knights valor and hold up my shield to reflect damage, and the enemy team just kills themselves lol. Even more funny in GG, and people wonder why i have such a low opinion about PvP in this game.
but theres always been crazy broken things with one thing or another.
ALL dragon glyphs should have its damage/effect component removed and just give a bigger stat bonus/temp hp or +10% healing recieved etc. it's a extra enchantment anyway so it doesnt need to be overpowered and still be useful.
and also the featured satirical comedic adventure "A Call for Heroes".
^^ this
+1
"Im using glyphs because that guy on the enemy team is using them" - it will snowball on like this and all will be using them or none will play pvp.

I would love this idea, pvp players don't want them in pvp lol. It's the situation that if the enemy team is using them, then the only way to win is use them too.
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Many of them would also kill regular people 1vs2 in rank 5s
Just because they are fools and use buggy OP <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> in their gear doesn't make them bad PvPers. Although some indeed are lol.
The real issue is that they would do ANYTHING to win. This is where the honor that should be present in any Player vs Player confrontation disappears.
- Pot up with 10 different elixirs, flasks and buff foods, worth 40K AD/pop? Check.
- Use broken OP glyphs or any other type of gear that is available, regardless of the fact that it is GAME BREAKING? Check.
- Leave game when they lose? Check.
- Kick people from PvP so they can leave without consequences? Check.
Pathetic.
This is why the DEVELOPERS need to be FAST and control these situations immediately.
The players cannot be trusted to police themselves. The broken items need to be taken down and rebalanced.
That's what I realized two weeks ago. You too will soon learn that it's not economical to slot-unslot glyphs from your overload gear, and be forced to just permanently have them on, all the time. Then you will melt people in PvP for a few days, be raged at, and never lose. Then you will get bored. Soon enough you will quit the game and troll the forums while you play something else.
Just saying.
Just make them an accepted staple just like potting up is
