    While we're at it why don't we nerf the ability for bms to stun lock, or Clerics to put players to sleep. Perhaps nerf Flesh Ream so a barb can't white knight. Maybe we should nerf Veno pets so they can't tank anything or bramble working in pvp.

    Your QQ fest makes me sick. Boo hoo, a sin cloaked on you. Cry me a river. Shadow Escape is hardly the cheapest thing in the game.

    LOL really?
    BM's stun lock - takes skill vs Stealth - oh I just hover my mouse over there...
    Cleric's sleep - random duration??? vs Stealth - however long they want?
    Barb's Flesh Ream - tank without its primary skill?! vs Stealth - the value of sin won't go down if it is nerf?!
    Veno's pet - nothing much without their pet? vs Stealth - still very competitive with it being nerfed?!

    BM's Stunlocking require MASSIVE amounts of chi and have cooldowns and chance %'s to make them luck at best.

    Force stealth is 100% and you GAIN 100 chi.

    Okay, keep sins the same and make all other classes skills give chi instead of take.

    all sins here should fight vs sins but using an AA LA or HA class alt, because you guys are very biased.
    either that or your ego of "i pawn all with my op sin skills and nobody can 1v1 me coz they cant hit me" is too big.

    I have... there isn't much of an issue with how it is currently, I do say they need to make the potions more available but the sin skills are fine. My old main char was a wiz and I never once had an issue with sins...

    Seriously. Learn, at least, even the most basic, miniscule amount you could possible use. Here's a suggestion on where to start: commas.

    Anyway, I play a sin, and fully support removing the one-spark benefit, or even costing a spark. I use it right now on my sin after I end up dead for a quick chi boost (only Lv. 38), but I'll forfeit that for some balance for everyone else.

    kinda wish I had made named available on poll so we could see how many people truly feel force stealth is fine and arn't sins who dont consider themselves biased b:chuckle

    I'm really surprised people freak out about Force Stealth in a game of 5 atk/sec, +12 weaponary, +15 Atk Lv. Blessings, etc. I mean seriously... next to the power of cash some players exhibit this has the smallest imbalance-effect on PvP besides besides all-pets and fashion... I mean people can drop bosses in under a minute but someone gets away in PvP and its totally awful and unrealistic. Try jumping five times in a second.

    Assassins actually depend on this skill to survive a lot of PvE encounters I don't see any reason for this to be change or taken out. As a cleric when I'm in trouble I can spamfest my heals to recover 5,000 health per second as back out of the situation. Without this ability I'd be dead a lot more often.

    I can use this same healing ability in PvP. If you can't one-shot me: you can't kill me. With -75% channeling I can stack the five stacking Ironheart Blessings and still send cyclones your way. Does that make clerics a broken class? No because it is possible to one-shot us. It is also possible to stun, seal, sleep, and generally **** with this basic strategy making it marginally useful in PvP. Force Stealth is not different. It forces you to kill an assassin in one or two shots or stun, seal, or sleep them. Its possible. So are assassins a broken class? I don't think so.

    Realize that it is okay if the game doesn't allow them to "win" every encounter. So you lost the assassin and he stealth-ed to the safe zone? Yeah well other classes would probably just Holy Path. Everyone can escape when given the chance. So you got attacked out of no where? I've launched a Tempest from above and sent people scattering too. I've gotten sniped by annoying archers. I've gotten stun-rushed by annoying blademasters that then proceed to cut me to shreds with their AmericanExpress claws. I've randomly gotten sealed by annoying wizards and then one-shot by blade tempest. Everyone can be sneaky. The only difference is that assassins get skills with those names that help them. Because you know... its the point of their class.

    I think if a cleric in +3 armor with a +5 weapon can kill your average assassin you can too!

    ~Euphemia Dark

    PS: A 5 chi/sec would be GREAT for level 40 assassins and their single spark.
    PPS: Again, I support allowing certain AoEs to be used without a target to knock assassins out of stealth. Nonetheless, I feel this "problem" is blown out of proportion.

    Difference between you IH spamming yourself, holy pathing, and force stealth?

    As you said, I can one shot a cleric with Blade Tempest.
    I can holy path right behind someone else
    Because of Deaden nerves I CANNOT 1 shot an assassin. Can't be done. Impossible.
    And when I begin to start the next attack to finish the assassin...

    Lots of stuff see post somewhere above

    Yea, Yet you can still target and seal said Holy Pathing class.

    And you cant seal something that has you Stunned, Slept, Silenced or has a Seal, Stun, Sleep or Immobilise-proof skill active. Which a sin can easily have.

    As for the single spark thing for Lv 40 assassins, this is why simply consumung chi is great. I dont think anyone would be so evil as to make it dispel once you run out of chi.

    Also, minor note, come onto Harshlands and sit at West Gate for an hour. Make a Lv 2 cleric and fly on up. When a 10x sin turns up, 90% of the time, most robes are screwed, and more than half of the LA classes too. Unless theyve a sin on their side to balence it out.

    And as for a Wizard / BM / Archer...... You can see them on the map, and if you know theres one abut, you can track them and be ready. Sitting there with your finger on AD is a perfectly awesome tactic, but its ******n annoying to have to do that when a sin can come out and kill the person next to you before youve even targetted them. I fairly often turn around and cast Whirlwind on them, its never a oneshot. So the sin is away and im pretty much gaurenteed to be next one on their kill-list. Ok, thats fine. I sleep them, they stand there in stealth slept more often than I sleep them out of stealth. Unless theres someone I can AoE theyre sorted and my sleep is on CD for the next person. As soon as it wears off, theyre back out at full chi and im dead.

    All in all, ive been attacked by sins that have been knocked out of stealth with various things from Tangling mire to Tempest, and its a mixed reslt, I lose and I win equally. If a Sin gets into stealth and I cant AoE something within about 1 second, theyre gone, and ready to try again from the top and im screwed.

    I repeated myself a lot in this post I know, but its the fact that a sin can pop out with full chi again in seconds that ruins everyones fun.

    Stealth **** with a sins chi is still, imo, the best route. Either cost per second (Without dispelling upon complete drain) or cost to cast/on cast (Say like Soul Transfusion for a veno, itl swallow a spark if youve go one, if not, it wont do anything).

    All this coming from a reasonably equipped 100 Cleric on Harshlands, a PvP server where we know how much Sins ruined the game. Hell Everyone knows Psys are OP but noone cares since theyre super squishy to make up for it.b:chuckle Its sins and specifically re-stealthing and gettign full chi we care about, not the staying invisible part.

    as I reply, stunlock.
    next to archers (in open pvp) bm's are the bane of my existence

    Will of the Bohisive + roar of the pride = dead sin

    and before you bring maze steps into this equation, that bugs out half the time anyway, and not to my favor either

    thanks to that 15 seconds of you granting the ability to be immune to all stuns, and roar right off. it's a matter of stun locking from there. even if it does have a 60 second cool down.

    I can't tell you how many times I died because of this. even if I do get stealth, all you have to do is mire something near me to uncover me. besides I hardly use forced stealth in pvp, because I don't have the chance to hit it.

    all I'm saying is learn how to play your class better instead of crying to the gm's about how broken a class is... because if the sin gets nerfed everything will get nerfed... beware of what you wish for


    ps.

    before you start QQing more, play a sin and try and survive without half the things you are QQing about. I dare you.

    Actually, if you're able to start channeling the second attack it WILL hit the assassin even in stealth. And they will die, since they're at 20% health (unless charmed). If I'm assassinating a sin in open PvP:
    • Demon Spark
    • Cloud Eruption
    • Tempest
    • Cyclone

    They shouldn't notice you till your ultimate hits them, after which you're already casting the finisher. It's not full-proof. Deaden Nerves is really a pain. Then again so are charmed barbarians.

    Also my point of comparing IH to Shadow Escape was this. How do you stop me from healing myself? You seal/stun/sleep/one-shot. How do you stop an assassin from stealth-ing? You seal/stun/sleep/one-shot.

    oh and I forgot something nerves has a TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY second cooldown. now I'm going to put that into minutes as to not over tax your brain.

    that's 4 minutes, and with pvp is I get knocked out of nerves real quickly, and FOUR MINUTES until I can cast nerves again and feel mildly safe

    Cant sleep a target using Maze steps and if you get the opportunity to attack a sin in PvP, good for you, they evidently didnt deal with their target fast enough before you noticed, yay.

    When im playing my sin, I stealth the second I see a spark that is not mine or my opponents, it garenteed to be coming for me. Deaden lets me live the hit and im gone before you have even cast that ulti. Then im coming for you. At full chi. Enjoy.

    Oh and your chain takes over 6 seconds to complete, with average -Chan. Yea, on HL, a sin is usually gone within that time, so uh, not gonna happen :)
