PvP's new BIS may be too much

cpuScientist · October 2018

So this patch has come out and I will go ahead and try to get this out here for all.

The enchant Cha ges on dual wield are working great... TOO GREAT. So right now the meta build will be torugs infused master axes and whatever. Maybe go spriggan and no monster set or go with one clever alchemist agility and whatever else.

But the enchants will proc right after the other just boop boop boop have one be Oblivion and disease the other. Cut down anyone. This will probably be done best on stamBlade as minor beserk and incap 20% bonus affect it but. Whatever Stam just use that. Every Stam will bring what they bring to the general build.

But this is worst than sloads was. It needs to be looked at. And will severely imbalnce things.

I'm just reporting it from now so it's not some secret that gets used for a bit and doesn't get looked at next patch.

Have fun!

I used to troll with torugs and sloads last patch. This patch it's going to be insane.

Yes, it is too much. I'm happy that my medium Dk with dual wield is very viable, but its a bit way too strong, I can feel it. Getting kills are way too easy and there is no need for a spammable cause rending slash is my spammable.(which is why its viable lol) The combination of rending slashes, master dw, oblivion-disease glyphs... and a poison on 2h bar, Its just too much.

Speaking of 2h, Its literally only used for momentum and the free bleed proc at this point. Might aswell call it the ''momentum stick''. I even dropped the reverse slice. Cause why use it over steel nado

Even my magplar uses rending slashes. Best dot in town.

This isn't a secret though ... as there's a long existing thread on this topic in General Discussion as well as being a hot topic on PTS.

Not entirely sure why a new thread was started.

My appologies didn't see that thread. Though now I guess it's in combat mechanics too. I barely ever go in general lol

Oreyn_Bearclaw · October 2018

So I went home and did a little PVP for about 2 hours over lunch. I had some torugs axes from my tank, so gave it a go. It's kind of a double edged sword (or axe in this case). I was actually playing on my stam sorc, because my highest AP toon is my mag sorc and I might just race change her.

Anyway, I feel like I was one of about 50 people between bleakers and chal testing the exact same build. So many kills AND so many deaths. haha. It was the fastest paced combat I have seen in a long time. Most encounters were 5 seconds or so. Everyone one of my recaps was littered with enchant procs, as were I am sure, all of my kills. I am certainly going to have to work on my defense, dont really have a lot of PVP experience on stam sorc, but man, the offense was nuts.

And those two were only touched because they were extremely popular and complained about.(both nerfs are fine to me.) I believe bleeds will have the same fate because they are everywhere and complained about now that people finally realized they do ridicilously high damage.

Anyways, nerfs are fine but I wish they buffed or revamped the unpopular weapon/guild abilities every once in a while..
