Replace free Jones Blessing (+30 attack lvl) from Facebook connect thingy to old-school Dominance Blessing (+10 attack lvl, +10 defence lvl).

People would still connect their accounts as the blessing is useful in PvE.

PvP would stop being oneshot fest b:chuckle

    To a point, Templar, you're correct.
    But let me give you a situation in where it would be better without a blessing.

    A wizard gets 1 hit by an archer with an R8 bow. Wizards charm ticks once as they res.

    A wizards gets attacked by an archer with an R8 bow and no blessing. Wizards charm ticks once, and they nearly die, but get away. Charm may tick twice. Archer hunts them down, ticks their charm again and kills them.

    4 ticks vs 1 tick.. Get rid of blessings please.,

    But I'd rather die and lose less hp on my charm than get away and lose more hp.

    Or am I reading this wrong? O.o

    No, you got the point. I was just countering Templars post in the money making scheme of pwe's favour.

    I'd rather not get charm ***** either, but for the fun of PvP where not everyone is a 1shot? Yes please.

    So when a barb pulling a catapault gets his charm ticked 20 times by various wizzie, psy, cleric, archer, sin and BM attacks, it means he died 10 times? But how does said barb still stand? o;

    Basically its right, if you think about it. What that person was saying (if I am reading it right) is that 4 ticks in one life is equal to the same as dying (non-one shot) twice. Read it like this:

    4 ticks in one life- 4 ticks obviously.

    2 deaths:
    1 tick to tick the charm, 1 when you revive-2 per death

    So if you are 2 shot, its 4 ticks over 2 deaths, same as that 4 ticks in one life with less damage.


    Me personally though, I'd rather have the 4 ticks in one life and have a better battle. Thats why I wear a charm, so that the battle can extend, not so that I get an insta-heal when i rez.

    There is something called healing and kiting which allows the person to tick several time before dying. Sorry about being captain obvious...

    But it doesn't technically make you dead. If you're still living, you have more chances to wreak havoc on other players. Isn't that what PvP is about? Killing? How much fun is killing when you're dead.. not too fun.

    Ok so we ARE on the same page in that aspect.

    But It seems like you're just repeating my original post about how NOT being 1shot = more charm ticks = more charm waste = more money to Pwe.

    why should they? people pay for a reason. maybe its just me but i think people who pay and people who dont pay shouldnt have the same gear unless it came from good merchanting but thats it.

    Or the +15 +15 blessings. Anything to render cash shop rank 9 a little less effective.

    Why do people think rank 9 will be made less effective by blessings? Concidering youd get a 15 def level boost and theyed get a 15 atk level boost to match it, it would simply be the same situation.

    Tip : If you can use it, so can R9. (Cept a few tiny tiny things like 5aps.).

    That's true. For example a R9 sin on my server has like ... 186 attack level WITHOUT the Jones Blessing >.>
    With that sin's skill that's increasing the crit rate he is reaching 86 % crit rate. I don't really think he would need the blessing.

    But yea, I must also agreed that one shotting in PvP is not fun :< Except ... if you're one shotting someone b:avoid

    I support blessings with more defense and less attack lol. currently the damage output by players is just overkill compared to defense of most people.

    It wouldn't be *that* hard to make Jones blessings "unable to equip" :p
    Or look below...

    Or the +15 +15 blessings.

    I had similar idea after posting and it would work much better because it would deal with those who stacked Jones blessings on alts. If everyone would use +15 +15 blessings, person who would still use Jones blessing wouldn't get +30 attack lvl - it would be +15 attack lvl, -15 defence level (compared to everyone else).

    Thanks :D



    To those who thought about *money* benefits of this change for PWE: as of now, it's pointless to refine anything else than weapon. If you hit first you will win, if you get hit first you will lose. So balancing out Jones blessing = players spending more money on shards & refines of armor.

    Even a 15/15 blessing would be decent...at least that's 15% dmg reduction. The more the better and lol charm ticks. So what, if your charm ticks a lot before you go down? That's how it's supposed to be,not get 1 shot.
    It's all about LoL,yo.
