Nothing you can do about it. It's probably like this for a reason. If you meet geared players, you want to get better gear. How? Well, grind for 1-2 years or get your credit card. that's the business model.
Thing is, ranged maybe you can still survive. The new domination node capping will not let you stay ranged for too long. You need to stay on node as much time as possible.
another good advice: 1. go back in time, invoke multiple times/day on all your toons and save the bound RP from the bags. 2. go back in time again and don't transmute your main/off hand to something bound to character so you can later move it to another toon to refine using bound on character RP
Yeah, CW is a really sad story right now in competitive pvp. Before drowned weapons and wheel of elements, you could not see the problem because CW had a healing advantage over other classes with chaotic growth. Now, everyone can heal so chaotic growth advantage is gone, and the burst damage is not what it used to be…
CWs encounters are Icy Rays, Conduit of Ice, Ray of Enfeeblement and Disintegrate? Was this really PvP or just a boss fight? A CW would use this combo only for stumping 1k ilvl pugs maybe... Edit: seems that i am right: "The CW was involved in 2 fights, with a combined total combat duration of 7:04 minutes. 21 kills, 0…
It's not a double damage proc. Below 50%, Anvil can hit for 250k+ Also, GFs don't really need that much armor pen since they have mark. They are just broken and we have to deal with it.
Wow, I can't believe how ignorant people can be. Read the tool tip people. It is not WAI. It should just add weapon damage, not weapon damage multiplied by every possible damage multiplier + crit. The set is BIS for every DPS class. This is not normal. Buff other sets?! That would be just wrong. I should be able to chose…
Don't defragment your SSD. It's not good for it. Same issues here. Fiber connection but everything is loading very slow. Got 20 fps in stronghold with an i7, 16gb ram, gtx 760, ssd and both sliders set to minimum. Textures are also loading very slow.
It's more than just ITF. Mark =~ 20% Villain's Menace = ? ITF = 40%+ (depending on DR) Combat Superiority = 15% Shield Warrior's Wrath = 20% Knight's Challenge = 100% (usually used against DCs, OPs) Conqueror Capstone = 25% Feytouched = 18% (assuming it works as it says. might be more) edit: forgot the fire buff
I think the main problem is the way GF buffs scale with the much higher stats they have now. Nothing changed for GF since the major buffs they got a few mods back but, suddenly they hit much harder. I got one-shot more than one time. 155k bull charge, 166k anvil of doom from full health, 218k anvil (crit, mitigated down…
Well, as a VIP I would expect my subscription to be extended for all the period the servers were down. In another game I am supporting, I receive a message at the end of every month saying "server uptime this month: 9x.x%. Your subscription has been extended by x.xh...
These broken rings have killed it for me. Even with them fixed, they are too much. OPs vanishing, stealth GWFs, GFs. Can't even cast opressive force without being repelled half way across the map. As more and more people will start getting those rings, more PvPers will move on to different games. Many I know are just…
Hmm... started lagging really bad, huge ping spikes. pinged the eu proxy and got a lot of timeouts. Can't connect at all without the proxy. Yes, i'm in europe.
I think i'm beginning to understand why BiS people complain about how hard it is now to become BiS. They have noone to fight against in pvp. Why would you need to be BiS? PvP. The problem is not that much as getting to BiS, but what you do when you get there... nothing. Queue still pops in half an hour and matches are…
Beating a dead horse sounds about right. 90% of players that queue for pvp right now, do it for the AD and SH quest. I am amazed hardcore pvp players are still around, always updating their equipment to be competitive, then just waiting for the game to get fixed (always next mod), so they can have fun again in pvp, just…
First time I hear about something like this and I think it's very unlikely... About the rest, I agree. The next time you see something for sale on the zen market, chances are high that item will be obsolete in a few weeks, lol.
The game was still OKish back then, so things could be fixed. Now, everything is just broken... just shove it under the carpet and release new broken stuff. I still prefer the old DC-GF party for running dungeons. Permabubble-OP parties ar boring... no challenge at all.
For lifesteal... a lot of high lvl dark echantments in your defense slots + the SH lifesteal boon. I would not stack lifesteal. I have ~14% without any darks. For PVP, SW does better with stacking HP and trying to build up soul sparks as fast as possible, imho. LifeSteal is unreliable and is better for classes that can…
I did some PVP on my SW the past few days. 2.2k ilvl, trans fey and trans negation, grim pvp set, fury build, no LM set. It is indeed very fun and good against pugs. You can kill pretty easy and stay alive even vs 2 players (once you have your soul sparks up). Got double kills, triple kills, no problem. Overall, KD ratio…
I'm leaning towards MoF with Critical Conflagration and Chilling Presence. I have't play MoF in a long time, and never in PvP. The question is, can Smolder be deflected? If it can be deflected, this can become very dangerous against high deflect classes with Fey Thistle...
