It's interesting how much this game has changed in a year or even two years. Back then, nobody talked openly about their builds and kept broken/overperforming things within their own personal circle and there were more uniformed players to 1vX. Now these things get openly discussed on the forums and there are less uniformed players to 1vX. It's why most youtube content now is typically 3vX or greater vs not very outnumbered situations where people are getting Xv1'd streaming in one at a time.

You want to know why people talk about it more openly in the forums? It's pretty simple. In the beginning, players though that the devs in this game would PvP, and discuss with players ingame from time to time about different matters (bugs, exploits, observations, etc.).

Then players realized that game masters don't exist and that the only dev who actually pvp on a regular basis is Rich Lambert. All the other devs have absolutely no idea what's going on in PvP and to prouve our points and make things change, our only option is to communicate through these forums and abuse the kindness of GinaBruno as the messenger.

It's funny to see how people want to nerf proc sets but that everything else is fine in their opinion. I agree that proc sets are a bad design, but please show me how in hell you can kill any good heavy armor build or 50k+ max magicka shield build without using proc sets. Even with them it's not as easy as people want it to be. Proc sets are one of the problems in this meta, but by far not the only problem.

The main problem is, that Zenimax releases new sets that are more powerful than the sets we had before, otherwise people wouldn't play their content. Without any kind of softcaps the meta will become more and more extreme, we already have 10k health regen builds, 60k magicka builds, full proc set builds, 60k health blazing shield templar builds and who knows what else people might start playing in the future.

Yeah, Stalker touched on power creep earlier in the thread. If both medium armor and heavy armor are shells for the absurd stats from builds these days, heavy armor is the obvious pick for any stamina damage-oriented scrapper. I would like to see either heavy armor nerfed for stamina builds, or medium utlity increased.. or both. I mean I don't think they're going to bring back soft caps or re-do itemization again.
