This is NOT a nerf GF thread. That's not the point. Although they should be nerfed .... LOL. After chatting with a reluctant abuser, more info on what's occuring (in theory): It seems since the change in the way Item Level is calculated, your actual gear only makes small changes in your IL, but your boons make a much…
(sigh) Sometimes you wonder if people actually read a post. (learn2play issue? more like learn2read) This isn't about the deficiencies of a WK or any crying, or how to deal with a GF, or how to use CB. I've played since beta. I know what I'm doing. With the GF in question, my team won. This is about deliberate cheating and…
Interesting. Thanks. I hadn't thought about PVP since I haven't bothered with PVP in ages since it never seems to change or get better. Food for thought.
Imagine that a dirge is playing. A respec to MI. Don't think I haven't thought about it ... MI is superior in almost every way. I am ... the last WK standing. I am so efffffing stubborn.
I've played a WK since it's inception. I'll give you the truth. It's inferior in every possible way to an MI except one. Your differences as a WK consist of Hateful Knives, DisHeartening Strike, Vengeance Pursuit, Dagger Threat, Razor Action, Opressive Darkness, and Advantageous Position, as opposed to Shocking Exectution,…
Your passion for PVP in Neverwinter is truly a passion ... I just wish people like you could have more of an effect! Unfortunately, I don't think you can. Here's why: The game, and in particular PVP, has become an overly complex, unstable system. I, too, played when it was just out of beta and PVP was incredible and…
While they did stipulate it was a limited time event, the powers that be have to be morons to take it down. Complete morons. It was by far the best thing to happen to PVP since beta. If you liked it, do what I'll do... Vote with your feet. I have zero interest in feeding the the PVP guilds who continue to destroy PVP with…
Swift Footwork and Improved Cunning Sneak are must haves IMO. As you are speccing MI, these two feats will keep you out of trouble until your one shot wonder is ready to respam. As a TR you will not have any defense if your deflect fails so anything that keeps your dodge rolls and it's immunity frame is critical... Being…
I do feel your pain but you are going to have to understand that the powers that be don't give a rat's you know what about balance in PVP. They also could care less about balance in TR paths. I've played WK since it became available and it's utterly inferior to an MI. I don't play MI because it's so ridiculously stupid in…
What a difference a day makes! PVP hasn't been enjoyable in a long time. I que'd six times yesterday over a span of a couple of hours and ran into the same dishonorable pre-made in 5 of them. Completely gutless if you know what I mean. No capping,no acknowledging "gg", farming kills, corpse jumping... The whole works. True…
I feel your pain with frustration on the TR. But in PVE this isn't really true. The only classes people specifically ask for are Healers and Tanks ... the rest is jut high DPS of which we easily qualify. In fact, any DPS class with bonding runestones and a decent companion will throw off good numbers and the TR is no…
SE belongs in this game. A TR should have a burst finishing move IF executed with skill. I'm a TR. Before you grief... I'm a Whisperknife and don't use it. I die to it on occasion but don't particularly fear it as its not that hard to dodge. Most cheese builds that use it (most, not all... There are some top end TRs that…
My observations concur ... it actually is a tank buster IF you have help. Talk to me about the VP with FS. I never slot FS ... how does it interact with VP?
Cool Beans ... so little activity, I get to hijack my own thread!! Question: for WR in PVE ... if you are in a group of 3K+, is there any benefit in slotting it? My assumption is that at that level of IL, everyone has max ArPen and then some.
Nice to see you on demonmonger! My point wasn't that there's a secret, but it is true that builds that are not cookie cutter have been guarded much more closely than they used to be. I know, I've been here since just after beta and I've seen for myself the comraderie and interaction that existed in this forum in the first…
Can't dispute any of this and have played WK since one could ... It's a challenge. MI is easier (and more devastating on all fronts) ... although one thing not mentioned is that the speed adavantage an MI has is considerable and is an overlooked asset. My one dispute would be that when a good WK understands his support…
Not sure how you get VP to fire off like that. Mine does not. You use it once to throw dagger, 2nd time to teleport and stun, and then it goes into cooldown. Just went to dummies to test. I cannot fire off multiples unless I am missing something.
I ran that dungeon with AtWil ... 100 million was very impressive. To give perspective, I am not specced for optimum PVE and use WR on all bosses. There was also no GWF on the run. But I was 2nd with 64 million and thought I had rocked. His damage was an eye opener. I felt so inadequate!!! ... lol
I was in PVP yesterday when, while standing on a node, I was attacked by a steathed GWF that had apparently run at Maserati speed across half the map in heavy armor to launch the games strongest melee attack while I couldn't see him. Just perfect. I wasn't even ticked .... I didnt' even fight back ... I just lay there on…
1. Couldn't agree more. 2. True. 3. Hmmm ... I have always used the CoS bonus, I will investigate switching. 4. You know, I don't use it. Was turned off when it was broken for so long. Maybe I should. I always use Impact Shot as it gives me another range option and gives me enough of a window to keep melee off of me. I…
As a WK Sab, when I solo, I rarely have any issues with mobs. In fact, when I first hit 70, I was surprised at how easy the content was even though the mobs hit harder and had a lot more hit points. Using SB, Blade Fury, and SS with LA and BB as daily's is a breeze. As a WK, I stealth hit as many as I can with Disheatening…
