Every SPVP related nerf should be applied to WvW


Nuka Cola.8520

Recommended Posts

Because its PVP, and with food etc the power creep is just too strong. It doesn't make sense letting weapons such as Revs staff completely unbalanced with insane burst when it was toned down (for good reasons) in spvp a while back. In spvp you pvp. In wvw you pvp. So why is balanced split between the two???

You don't get the point. The staff was an example. I'm talking about every nerf/balance weapons/utitlies/traits have received in spvp, should be applied to wvw.

And since you mention the staff sarcastically, i dunno if all you do is zerg or wut, but the large majority of revs i play against while roaming use the Staff...

Of the 1 in 30 players using rev in wvw, most of them are probably not even hitting 5k with surge of the mists. But sure, cut the damage in half so there is no answer to thieves and mesmers...

And who said mes/thief nerfs wouldn't be a thing? If it was nerfed in spvp, it was too powerful. A "too powerful" skill(s) become even more OP in wvw. That shouldn't be a thing.

And you still don't get it, or simply main Rev and want it as op as possible. You don't need to trait anything, use blink and that's it, but that wasn't even the point. You tunnel vision Rev's staff as if Staff 5 is the only broken skill in wvw lmao.

Yeah, wvw is much more unbalanced with additional stats, runes etc. So at least apply spvp nerfs so wvw gets a little more balanced? Or is wvw supposed to be a mess (balance wise) for the years to come?

I completely agree. Whenever i see a PVP Only nerf, i do not take Anet seriously to take serious action. Seriousness is making no exceptions......PERIOD!!.

Ok lets try this differently,

How many pvp only changes would affect your play if brought to wvw,aka, List everything You, for your current builds, are willing to give up.

Erm, maybe think it through it a bit, they are two different game modes with different balance requirements, so what is strong (and gets nerfed) in sPVP is often actually weak in WvW (and vice versa), e.g - look at engy for much of the game, for the first 15 months it was nerfed nearly every balance patch because of sPvP, meanwhile in WvW it was not even recruited by fight orientated guilds (large scale) because it offered nothing so actually needed buffs/design changes for WvW.

What WvW actually needs is balance changes made for WvW, but apparently this is too much work for Anet, meanwhile there are other games that have a balance patch every month, with often a minor patch in between on top of that.

Not splitting skills would make it harder for anet to do class balance. A perfect balance for 5v5 conquest can make several builds and skills be useless in wvw and pve. They would also think twice before nerfing op specs in spvp for the fear of hurting wvw.

A skill can be be OP in conquest mode where people are forced to sit on points and totally useless in wvw at the same time.

Anet started splitting skills because the community asked for it.

Give up? So a balanced skill is supposed to be so bad that i'm supposed to give it up? What are you on???

Nah. Mostly because if non hammer power rev gets another nerf, it just means there's no hope for his game.

You sure you're not just mad you got nuked by a staff 5 when you could've blinked, distorted, mirage mirrored, mirror of anguished, phase retreated, or evaded?

While we're at it can revenant get 15k instant bursts like power Mesmer GS2 F1? We save 50 of our energy for a measly 4-5k Equilibrium burst, and seems like you want to nerf that to 2-3k by bringing over PvP changes.

TLDR: another person is mad that people are still playing power rev, wants it to get nerfed instead of learning to play 2 years after class release, uses PvP skill splitting as an excuse.

A lot of sPvP nerfs exist because of the serious gear differences (level 78 exotics all around) that make some skills way better than others. That's totally irrelevant in WvW.

You also have the amulet restriction, and many nerfs around that restriction - I.E., a lot of power burst was nerfed hard in sPvP since you couldn't build naturally tanky. That's hardly relevant in a game mode where you do need tank busting (and, perhaps, tank busting isn't strong enough).

Plus there's a lot of stuff in sPvP that's only in sPvP because it wasn't going to affect the rest of the game and thus didn't get the regular amount of scrutiny.

There are a handful of changes from sPvP that I would migrate to WvW, but they are a small minority of those splits.

While most PvP nerfs need to hit WvW as well, for me the biggest thing is forcing WvW to use the same stats that are available to PvP. No more trailblazer, no more dire. No more any stat that isn't in PvP itself. I don't yet know how this would be implemented, because I can't agree with the amulet system for WvW, but definitely any stat set that is deemed too powerful for sPvP is most definitely too powerful in WvW.

What makes you think Spvp nerfs would make WvW any more balanced? Nerf rev enough and that guy just switches weapon sets or maybe just hops on a spellbreaker or maybe he goes full trailblazer aids rev. You might have an easier matchup against those builds I couldn't say but my point is that there's always going to be the next strong thing. And if everything else but what you're playing gets nerfed then everyone just swaps to whatever you're currently playing and the cycle begins again. My advice is to just swap classes if you really feel something is overpowered and just play that thing until it gets nerfed. If you insist on sticking with a class because you love it then accept that some things are gonna be annoying to fight. Personally I think SoTM was fine pre nerf in pvp and I think it's fine in WvW. SoTM isn't even on my top 20 list of stuff that annoys me in WvW.

I give one example of a skill that is untouched in wvw, and with the very intelligent forum logic, it must be because i have trouble against the build/skill lol. Not only running into a good rev who knows what's up is extremely rare (while roaming), but if there was a class i had the less trouble against, that would be Rev. Has nothing to do with me l2p bs. And it would also apply to other spam such as Pistol Whip, Bound etc etc. You can say whatever about the game modes being different, but both are pvp centered, and if those skills were toned down, there's a reason for that. Like, don't try to tell me that the skills mentioned were only nerfed in spvp because they were too good in spvp. No, they're not too good in spvp, but everywhere. I feel like most of you disagreeing are scared of your mains receiving dat balance, five years later.

Spellbreaker won't be broken for the years to come, so he can jump on it, whatever. Also, is balancing staff 5 on rev supposed to kill the class or something? Some of you rely too much on one skill.

I get where you coming from, just that anet threw all of that overboard. It would just lead to another mess.

ETA: I don't play pvp, maybe deceiver will come along, he's the expert on what exactly is calculated differently. As far as I remember it's the crits. Warriors seem to have some traits which let them crit really often. Still they get buffs in pvp which are often also implemented in wvw. I think it's pretty safe to say that WvW warriors are beasts. And in need of a good ol nerf. PvP warriors seem different though, that's why they need buff after buff. Get where I'm coming from and why your idea might not be the best?
