Got 10 of my feat points refunded on my GWF, got no respec. I also cant redistribute those 10 points and confirm my choice. So currently I run around with 10 feats short on my GWF. Didnt check my DC really, but it looked like his feats were still filled out aswell and had no free respec token. Hotfix please.

Yep pretty much. I know for me, if I keep slotting CoS post patch, it wont be to kite people to death. I will use it as an opening barrage before going toe to toe with the enemy. Maybe take down their bubble, break down guard a bit, force a stressy player to waste a dodge or a DC to cast his AS. Or I will just slot it and…

CoS has been taken care off. You are still stuck on the old function and you are discussing it on the PTR forum, you as a mod should know this is the wrong forum to discuss live skills. Read the numbers I posted earlier if you dont believe me that it's taken care off. You started to argue about stealth+CoS was OP, now you…

You are hung up on how CoS worked and not how it will work after patch. And how on earth can you say Whirlwind of Blades or Shocking Execution for that matter are the main threats? You claim those are threats aswell as DS, SB and LB. How do you fit them all into a deadly stealth spec? Well you dont, so you are far off the…

A GF of equal skill will destroy any CW, the same goes for GWF. Both have enough gap closers to be in the CWs face within seconds when its 1vs1. The CW just wont lock you up long enough to finish you. LS and Threatening Rush are enough to stay within melee range constantly vs a CW. Just like unstoppable and sprint for…
-
I wish this list was kinda accurate, but I've never personally experienced the "CW beat GF/GWF", never ever. Versus a good CW it can be difficult to kill them as a GWF, if they look for your controls and dodge them. As a GF its freight train vs empy coke can pretty much. I personally feel the TR vs CW to be far more equal…
-
Wait wait wait what? So you are refusing to use a valid skill i.e FmF, a skill that is great against rogues, and you have the nerve to go call for nerfs? You arent even using what is within your arsenal to battle the TR and you still call for nerfs!? Hypocrisy, straight out hypocrisy. FmF along with BotS are absolutley…
-
@The people who say they cant remove them: Cryptic/PWE can do whatever they like, just like it says in the ToS. Many companies have done so with things that people have spent alot of RL/in-game currency on. D3 is a prime example, they nerfed haste to the ground since it was way over the top. People moaned and whined,…

First, TR stealth skip wasnt a fool proof plan in Fardelver even, there where mobs aggroing TRs through stealth, then attacking when stealth broke. The same goes for the open world dungeons and other encounters, some mobs see you and attack you while in stealth attacking them. It may work at times, but thats something that…
-
But you arent untargetable and with the nerf CoS wont be even half as deadly, so it wont be an issue if the TR stands stealthed tossing knives at you. His main damage will be upfront, where stealth will only confuse the enemy. It's easy to combat TRs in melee range. If they dont field the class feature that removes 90%…
-
That's 3920 extra on 1 hit, not all 8. It has a 10sec IC unless there is some exploit going around. Its not something to nerf classes around in PvP, it is however something to think about, maybe remove chants from PvP. It still wont be a one shot combo anymore.
-
@Thalesamr: No, the GWF was never intended as a pure striker, it is the hybrid in the bunch, between a tank and striker. The companion is a whole different story, it doesnt equal the GWF. The spider is labeled a control pet, but it has no control abilities. Just like the CW isnt a striker either, its a control class with…
-
@Thalesamr: GWF is not a striker class, so shouldnt be able to do the same dps as a striker class. And yes, the TR "can" use ItC, at which point he just replaced a dps skill or smokebomb. The GWF can take the hit straight up, pop unstoppable and be alright. The high amount of damage the TR does in combo with singu is…
-
So why not just make it an even playing field while your at it. As soon as you get inside the cap circle, all TAB skills become unusable and if you currently have a buff from one, it gets removed. No 4th encounter for CW, No stealth for TR, no divinity for DC, no unstoppable for GWF and no mark for GF. Nevermind that all…
-
Thats the TR duty, single target dps. Dpsing as a GWF is one of the things I love, it's easier than both TR and CW to me. You just need to play them more aggressivly. A TR cant really take a hard hit, the GWF can, at which point you build massive determination. Unstoppable buffs all your powers, along with WMS that means…
-
You dont find it helpful to be able to move towards your enemy without worrying about getting CCed? You dont find it helpful being able to raise your shield and ignore DoTs? And not letting a stealthed TR cap a node would not be fair, since you can attack them while they are stealthed. You just need to find them, which is…
-
I never ment it as an insult, just an observation, since it sounds the same in every game when it comes to nerfs. People focus on one of the middle classes, the TR, yelling for nerfs when there are 2 other much stronger classes out there when it comes to PvP. A CW can kill a TR and a TR can kill a CW, 50/50 chance, depends…
-
Get a T3 mount (epic), dont bother with the lower ones. Get it from the Zen store, since once you have bought it, it's unlocked and free for all your alts.
-
Actually, a well played CW can attack you without getting attacked themselves, with their at-will aswell as chill strike. They can easily open up on you from range and get all their CCs of without you being able to react. They also get one extra free dodge. The stun you bring up is also only usable in stealth, making it…
-
@Ambi & Nuke: You are looking at it in a very odd way. Yes a TR can kill someone from range without getting seen, but it wont be one bit effective post patch. Pre patch it was seriously OP, if you had LA ready you could kill anyone you wanted, or I should say any CW, DC or visible TR. Post patch the combo wont go past the…
-
I dont see how the numbers posted by PWE/Cryptic can lie when reposted, it's another thing if people make bad calculations, at which point you can correct them. I didnt however. I didnt use any made up numbers, just what was there in the patch notes. Only way they can lie is if they are calculated in the wrong way, but…
-
You most likely only read the 3 lines of my post that you quoted, if you looked through the whole thing you'd see numbers actually backing up my statement. As I said, CoS on it's own is below 66% as effective after the nerf as it is now (fewer charges, fewer concentrated buffs), it's around 60% of its original power. Slap…
-
You just dont understand the TR enough. the 8 charge nerf with the 50% nerf to LA is more than enough to balance the thing that insta gibs people. It doesnt matter if its a stealth spec rogue or not, with stealth+LA+CoS you kill anything pretty much. There is no need to apply stealth drain on CoS or any at-will. 8 charges…
-
It's nice to see that PWE/Cryptic did the right thing with the TR and listened to the people telling them it was too much of a nerf. The new changes I can live with. My biggest gripe with the first nerf idea was mostly that at-wills eat stealth. It's not hard to kill a stealthing rogue thats attacking you if hes in melee…
-
Even ToR that was a kinda linear game had tons more of exploration options, mostly in the way of puzzles to get to all the data/holocrons. It was a game within the game. Also even though they had a limited BG system, the BGs looked interesting and they had more than 1 game mode. They had rush, domination, ctf and later on…

I'm just trying to figure out what part of NW you feel is old school, which you cant give an answer on. My only comparison with GW2 is that it's a fairly new MMO that brought back alot of feel from old game, like I said DaoC for instance. I could have said WaR too, but the game was/is illbalanced due to just having 2…
-
This man is still 5 years behind, living in the time when it was cool to bash WoW. This game is not easier or harder than WoW, it's not even the same type of game, so they cant be compared. It would be like comparing FF11 to FF14, even though the only things they share would be the name Final Fantasy and the monsters,…
-
And still you fail to mention anything that you consider an "old school" MMO. Atleast GW2 has many similarities to DaoC, one of the better old school MMOs created. Sadly NW doesnt remind me of any MMO, but it reminds me alot of many dungeon crawler games. There is still a purpose to go back to lowbie zones in GW2 and still…
-
What you are saying makes me think you havent played any "old school" MMOs. The latest game to come close to "old school" MMOs is GW2 and the upcoming FFXIV. NW is far from an "old school" MMO, much due to the reasons I've already stated. Its more a hack 'n slash in Diablo style than it is an MMO. The add swamping…
