Usually the 3rd PTS Patch Notes contain the biggest changes during the PTS cycle, but this time there were hardly any changes at all. The only real change was (in my opinion) buffing a set that was already too strong and should have simply been nerfed instead.
Frenzied Momentum:
Decreased the damage on the Heavy Attack explosion to 9132, down from 10384.
while generating stacks, you now gain 38 Weapon Damage per stack, which is lost after the proc the explosion.
Increased the duration of the stacks and the window your fully charged stacks last to 20 seconds each, up from 10 seconds each. This should help grant the set less binary performance, where you were immediately punished for not constantly spamming Stamina abilities and activating a Heavy Attack every 5-6 seconds.
The lack of changes would be okay if the state of the game would be decent how it is on the current PTS.
That simply is not the case though. Proc sets are way too strong and definitely need to be looked at.
At this point youre hardly going to spend more than 2 duels in a row (if youre lucky) without facing a player who is using proc sets as his main source of damage.
It is possible to make stamina builds which have really high hp and are pretty tanky in general and still have a burst of 20k+ in pvp with one heavy attack.
Please just tone down the proc sets. It is completely ridiculous that players can have insane amounts of damage without having to use a lot of skills, without having to invest anything into weapon/spell damage or other offensive stats and without actually having to be good at the game outside of choosing the strong proc sets for their builds.
It is really going to be sad when we are going to have to go into the next patch with another meta where procs are way out of control. They should be a viable addition to builds to fill gaps in them, but they should not enable completely new players to get dmg on par with a good player who spend time to learn how to really deal that damage without proc sets.
