You still do not understand my point. What I presented in this thread was a way to stay alive in a critical situation indefinitely,, not a method of holding aggro or working with squad members or having clerics heal you. Just wow.

Exactly how stupid are you? 1. I already said it was pointless for damage multiple times, and that it was for tanking. 2. I said 5aps sins, meaning that the autoattacks from a 15 second spark cycle from 5aps can now give the same amount of chi as DPH. 3. I doubt that if your squad wiped that you would be able to last on 1…

Survivability. If someone chooses to try to Sage Spark while using Elimination and their DD skills to the full extent, then they can basically spark once every 30 seconds. This means that while they have full DD and survivability for 15 seconds, they're vulnerable for the next 15 until their chi skills can catch up for the…

What happened to He's just going to add more rules. Besides, he said he's only going with 1 tier right now - and if we limit the tier to equal geared people, how many people do you think can actually compete in this thing? On Archo, probably not even 16.

You're a player. Aren't you supposed to know the massive difference between +10 citrine R9R3 and +12 JosD R9R3, even though they are technically in the same gear bracket? What about this?

Congratulations, PWI. I'm glad that you're trying to revitalize the game, but ultimately your latest Tournament event for Raging Tides and Archosaur is a failure. There are too many things wrong with it for any amount of either server to participate or even appreciate it. Let's start off with the format with this…

I would suggest that you stick with the G15 daggers simply because of 5aps sparked. The extra chi provides much more survivability than 4aps, despite the losses from Sacrificial Slash. Having a higher chi gain also lets you choose to Subsea or Powerdash, further increasing your damage. Don't underestimate permaspark. Go…

Wow GG I Guess I USE CHARGER ORB VERSUS ARCHERS D: Relatively speaking :3

How about both of you 1v1 in my hometown? ^^ Should prove to be interesting. And it's kinda funny to watch you two debate about low-key mistakes xD Further notes: Why don't you have Whirlwind vs an archer? Or Heart of Steel? And why do you chain Smack and Blade Hurl? lol

Not exactly sure why a perfect lock is even necessary. Ping issues are always present. It doesn't even matter if a player has 0 ping because their Google Fiber has somehow bypassed the speed of light: the server still needs maybe .1 second to respond. The tolerance for error is very low but definitely reachable. Even with…

How about we just remove the luck factor? Instead of giving assassins the ability to evade 2/3 of debuffs 2/3 of the time (4/9 total), we just give them the ability to choose which debuffs to evade in a 1v1. And while we're at it, we give the same things to psys. Let them choose when Soul of Silence can go off; the CD can…

w0w fine, I ragequit

Hi, sins are balanced with maxed out equal gear, and are horribly OP when compared to people of lesser gear. Any questions?

This seems to go against a lot of the fundamental tenets of group PvP; I'm not sure this type of squad is even viable as you say. 3 venos and 3 sins means no squad buffs, which means they'd all be squishier than normal (i.e, full buffed) combatants and should be thus easier to kill. Furthermore, any properly balanced squad…

tl;dr: Auerlius doesn't realize that he's losing in part because he sucks. (With citations). Okay, I'll bite. Hello. My name is Tsyren, former resident of Archosaur server, former G16+5 APS assassin, writer of the year-old yet still only viable Assassin PvP guide on PWInternational forums, &ca, now residing at an…

And for all your talk and logic, you never once question your own competence and skill. Another sin might be better than you, or someone else sucks, but you never consider the possibility that the problem lies partially in your own ineptitude? Toraah is arguably the best sin on Archo, but I assure you, you aren't the best…

Translation of OP helpfully provided by Tsy. If you think about it it's actually quite an impressive speech

GG And I just realized that most people on PWI can't get the new skills, so GF. Guess its a richboy macro

Hueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Those were good days. For mass PvP: Probably EA. They have the longest range, do decent damage with G16 (look at Walpurga) and if someone can play smart with range, they can't be killed by anything except other archers. Why? Well, see, can't hit an archer if…

I love how everyone blames the new skills and don't even suspect of blaming themselves for their own incompetence. After all, I'm pretty sure we've all adapted to Purify by now. If you can't keep up, don't drag down those who can.

Hi, would anyone like to 1v1 me with equal gears? I'm an old, banned ex-resident of this server. <3

I play on Asae now lol Come back to S for practice?

Well, I'm a PvPer. So I guess I post PvP. Player - Server - PvP Rating Disclaimer: These are my own opinions. They're a general guide. Feel free to ignore them. I'm also going to (sadly) withhold some names, because even though they might have significantly better content, they also don't hail from this version of…

Lol? I'd actually say that Soul of Silence is probably the easiest buff to deal with amongst all the PK classes. Deaden Nerves on both assassins, barbs, and clerics require you to expend twice the normal amount of chi to get a "double kill" in, and tidal protection requires much more luck and planning ahead. But nah, let's…

I believe you underestimate the amount of skill required to play a DPH assassin, or at the least, mischaracterize it. The difference between playing a psychic and assassin is a bit like the difference between being handed Microsoft Paint and a pencil. Microsoft Paint is somewhat difficult to learn to use. There are many…

Get on my level, Jarkhen. Need 17 pages. But no, seriously, great work! A bit of tweaking and I would like to see this stickied. This has long been overdue for all archers. I've been working on an newer version of my Assassin guide, but it's sitting at 30+ pages in Word right now and reading your post is much more…

What? lol GG imo

Oh, you silly GMs! Of all the knowledgeable, logical, and experienced forum posters you could listen to... you listen to Zanryu? Stuns through antistun, I guess. Be careful what you wish for, kids! I apologize for the necro, but someone had to do this.

From a defensive player's perspective, the purge classes of BM, barbarian, archer, and to a lesser extent assassins, suffer just too much from emptying genie like this. Even from where I come from, where people are stupidly tanky, to have no genie is to die. Think about it this way: You can choose to attempt a genie purge,…

You can just pm me on my main server if you have any questions or need some instruction.
