Im not sure how to respond to this one. I could point out how stupid that sounds when you think about it, or I could point out why 7th/fury are so OP atm (more damage in a heavy armor set than a medium armor set), OR I could point out that zerglings use them, but I think ill do all three.
Answer this for me yes or no, do you agree with nerfing solo/small scale players?
No, but its not just solo/small scale players that are using these sets. Tanky is the meta, and thus people are running heavy armor sets. What are the best heavy armor sets?
4 guys are being chased by 15 players
The 4 players can easily proc and stack these heavy armor sets because they have plenty of incoming damage to proc.
Those 15 pugs run fury, ravager, truth.
They will hardly if ever proc or reach max potential.
Truth requires the person to have dodged an incoming ability.
Fury requires that player to get crit on 25x before max stacks
Ravager requires them to do melee damage with an 8% chance to proc.
How often are those pugs getting fury stacked when 4v15?
The 4 aren’t tossing out bleeds when that outnumbered they are aoe bomb cleaving chunks out.
That eliminates fury possibility.
Truth? The 4 aren’t spending much time tossing out any abilities that could be dodged considering they kite and then hit and even if they do hit what’s the chance they hit or target the guy with truth so he can get the application.
Ravager? Most pugs choose to range dps. As it’s the easiest and most braindead option when zerging.
The stam classes who can benefit from ravager the most is stamplar. Most other stamina don’t have the correct dmg skills or the ability to up the proc time like light rending jabs light bash.
The next best set up for proc’ ravager is dw steel nado in a large clump of enemies 15v4? 4 doesn’t sound like a lot of chances to proc since even when spinning in 10 I fail to proc it.
7th ? Much easier than the ones listed as all it requires is dmg incoming to proc it with a 10% and only needs it once every 5.
But they still won’t be getting hit when 15v4 as once again the 4 are kiting. Potentially prioritizing healers or snipers. The proc chance won’t be up if they range as Stam and if they melee they are putting themselves far further than their zerg and in more danger.
These sets are equivalent to bsw, necro, brightthroat, sun, spinner, spriggan
To name a few
I dont see the arguments point? The sets are equivalent to BSW. Necro. Etc. But in heavy armor. Thats the point, damage and damage mitigation and heavy attack sustain. Why should you get all of those. When bsw or the others require you to be in light or medium take a substantial more amount of damage for the same damage? So what's the point.

I’d say yes, just to see forum fury. Small scale seems to be the whiniest group in the game, worse than Sorcs!
I’ve never seen such a small group of players demand that an entire game suit their playstyle.
Don’t worry, I have a habit of adding each person who says yes to a list in which I completely ignore their opinions for the rest of time on the forums.

Wow, I’m sure that’s a great way to become a well rounded individual who understands different perspectives. It’s not like there’s a whole generation of people who’ve live their life this way and are ignored by the general population.
Who would have thought sitting around slapping backs with other people who only share your opinion would lead to ridiculous opinions, opinions that are so far removed from the general population they can’t be taken seriously.

THIS. Idk why it's heavy in the first place aside from maybe cause of it's health bonus. It'd be great for Stamblade but the proc percent is too low as well
I main mag toons and dont see any problem with 7th/fury/ravager. Stamina would be in a rough spot in pvp without them and dawnbreaker tbh. I dont want pvp to devolve into ranged teams taking potshots at eachother.
They’re fine. I have no issues with proc sets being powerful on heavy sets as long as the proc is on damage taken. It’s only OP if the proc is in damage done.
Risk = reward
just give magica users the same thing to use ^^ there would still be a power gap between magica and stamina but atleast we have the chance to use 2 burst sets in HA, because every magica burst set i can think of is either light amor or realy bad
People love to complain about 7th and Fury yet most of those people's ignorance shows they have never used them and just need to complain cause they've lost to a heavy armor build.
Using BOTH on a class like a stamdk, in No-CP, means you're running with 900-1100 stam regen and 23-26k stamina at best, depending on your race and how much weapon damage you trade for more recovery/stam. Trading all your recovery and stam pool for weapon damage is a fair trade, and a perfectly balanced one.
When do those set become unbalanced? When you have 1500-1700 regen without having to trade anything for that sustain. What's the only class that can do that? It's Stamden. Bull Netch, Bird of Prey, Flourish.
Falcon's Swiftness is losing Major Endurance in the PTS notes, that's going to be a decent nerf to the real issue, without touching the sets which are fine by themselves.
