Yes, let's do this and make Stamcro Gods in PVP -100% uptime on Defile. Everyone should have a burst skill with defile!

I'm with you that nerfing individual healing isn't the best solution, but Defiles are a joke (except Meatbags, the MVP of Cyro). If anything is gonna make stamcros "gods" it's gonna be either morph of Spirit Mender...

I agree with everything on that list. Only thing I would say is that molten whip and corrosive needs to be added to that list.
I would also like sets with pulls to get a toning down. Personally I think pulls should give CC immunity as you cannot react while being pulled.

Pulls shouldn't exist in pvp to being with. You shouldn't be able to just change someone's location at will like that, outside of knockbacks which are far less controlled.

The fact that rushing agony specifically does not grant CC immunity is a joke, and to make that worse certain combinations like convergence and the necro armor pull will still double pull you straight through immunity. Something really needs to be done about that.

Rushing Agony I suspect doesn't cc immunity because it's also a PvE set and that would mess up tanking.

IMHO there's nothing wrong with pulls except that the game should allow you to counter them properly and the counter shouldn't fail 90% of the time and rubber band you back due to lag. If the game actually worked properly most of the pulls and leaps would be great.

Defiles aren't a joke at all, they're potent enough against any spec that doesn't have problematic heals in the first place.

That's why targeting individual healing and stuff like radiating regen is the way to go.

Defiles are god awful, they were nerfed because of CP that buffed it, the CP star is now gone and it was never compensated.

PvP will never be balanced in this game, you should play a game where PvP is the core focus and not some side function for 5% of the playerbase.

The majority of Cyro is on a spec with "problematic healing" and the specs with crappy healing are already dying without any need for Defiles. I'm with you on Radiating Regen though, launch that one into the sun and forget it ever existed.

I've played PvP since launch and no one is asking for PvP to be perfectly balanced, the devs aren't capable of doing that even if they tried.
But through out all these years we had decent, bad and horrible patches balance wise with some of the bad ones still offering some enjoyment.

But the current patch and especially next patch are just horrible and unfun experiences.
You can forfeit in many fights just because 1 player is on a magplar with a decent build and is capable of finding the button to activate living darkness.

Fights with groups turn into boring ult charge contests where nothing ever happens in between the ult drops unless someone is heavily outnumbered.

The game can be unbalanced and still be fun but currently this simply isn't the case, it's not even fun to abuse magplar or magdk at this point.
