damage Reduction from nova and permafrost is counter to destro groups.

Earthgore and Negate make nova basically trash. Permafrost is good though

Nova would be considered almost as good if it moved with you. Rip ground ults.

Almost, because it’s easier to have allies huddled around you to protect with perma than enemies huddled around you to debuff with nova.

I really miss nova crushing things. Now that’s a fun spell.

@HaroniNDeorum Maybe it's because I hardly play, yet I've seen you trash AD in zone chat recently. Which is interesting because AD is weak atm as the result of so many players switching to other factions. So you have become part of the problem that you were criticizing AD for.

I don't have anything against you, but I can't fault others for being frustrated by yet another player bailing on the losing team.

I would like to read your definition of "trash" because imo, when i say "if you want to win, drop some negates or powerful ultis instead of bow light attack spam the enemies; get some organization" is not <trash AD in zone chat>

I didn't take a screenshot, but it wasn't very nice and it was more than once. You can become visibly frustrated -- which is one thing as someone who also provides leadership, but completely different when that person is also an opponent. So don't be surprised if that kind of thing rubs people the wrong way.

I realize that most people will do what's best for them, but what happens when it becomes best for everyone to leave the weak faction on any platform?

Players I never dreamed would leave AD have left recently, expressing deep frustration. I know AD does well prime time occasionally, but for the most part it is a very frustrating experience for most. I don't say any of this for myself. Like I said, I don't play much. I don't lose sleep over it. My main concern outside of my remaining friends in AD is the health of the game.

let me know when you get the screenshots; as i said calling the faction to their real problems (plenty of people on stealth just sniping 1 dude while 4 destros and negates are coming and no one negates) its not trash talk imo, its being realistic. what you want me to say? AD does really good? Ad is amazing with their actual pop skill during most the day? no, its not true.

While DC and Ep gets more organization every day, AD is just complaining about everything without desire of improvement.

Didn’t you move to the path of least resistance?

"While DC and Ep gets more organization every day, AD is just complaining about everything without desire of improvement." x2.

Like 75% of this thread is off topic - It finally needs to die People should start over in a more constructive way of adressing problems...

but they are dying .... to the ball groups *face palm* oh silly you.

You know what they're causing .... lag .

You get a lag and Now you get a lag! Everyone gets lag!

(we so pro, we lagged everyone to death *organized zerg ball group lagfest*)

Agreed. Since Nova can't move, Destro Ult shouldn't move. Was nice to see DC's destroy ult train fail today at Arrius in Vivec. But it doesn't happen a lot.

People shouldn’t ball up so hard.
Spread out some and attack various objectives and enjoy smaller more manageable fights across the map. I mean look at all of the cyro map we have available and you choose to run with the herd back and forth between gates/bridge

everywhere we went last night we were running from a 57 avg DC blob. Let me split into groups of 12 to fight that. A few months back we could Feilds a raid to combat those upsurd #s but after a year of it a lot of AD bolster those DC mega zergs #s now. Lucky to get 10 on the weekdays 16 or so on the weekends. It’s not because the AD that’s left like to stack because the lag gets stupid. It’s what we have to do to hold back the blue hord.

PS. Being able to Q in another factions q and bypass your 100+ is just wrong IMO. If you want to play in the swollen faction you should have to wait in line just like every other person or play a less stacked faction.
