will de grijze jager.6594 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 PVP and WVW is still to much power creep. How to get the power creep gone that is easy. First look how the balance was before HOT. Second NERF EVERYTHING(healing, boon uptime, condi damage, power damage, stuns, condi applying and cc) atleast with 50% so skill matters agian. Third look at the outliers and nerf those wiht another 10% to 20%. Fourth look at all the elite specs ALL of them and give them 1 nish and give them debuff so a dps class can't be a healer also at the same time. Every class need a weakness like you are dps, okay you are not getting a lot of ways of survivel. You are condi okay this skill will do the same like power, but over time what condi was ment to be.

RedShark.9548 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 i agree on the power creep in wvw, atleast in pvp it has been somewhat adressed, wvw there are alot bigger numbers flyimg around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Boyer.6524 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 The current enhanced DPS is actually doing a good job of counteracting boon frequency, bulk, and uptime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody in the game dies instantly. Name 1-hit skills that you don't see a BIG tell that they're coming. The only one I can think of is a GS burst mesmer coming at you in stealth, but they still stun you, giving you .05 to react with a stunbreak. Otherwise, there's no such thing as a true no-tell 1shot in the game. In higher levels of PvP, teamfights last a good deal of time, winning teams only have 0-3 deaths to each of their names. Balance is pretty good right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaqueFyre.5678 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 How to remove power creep and balance the game.First step remove everything that’s unique to classes,remove all traits, skills, Normalize Toughness Armor and Health to 100, each class gets Stick for Melee and Rock for Range. Stick does 2 Damage Range 130, Rock does 1 Damage and range of 900. Stick and Rock animations respectively have colors associated with the Class. There you go, perfect balance, no powercreep.

I don't struggle with core guard, although I agree, Rev burst is next-level crazy. Their engage is crazy too. I could totally see a large damage nerf for Rev, as long as they get condi clear buffs.

Felipe.1807 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Yeah, this game needs a huge nerf on general...would start with bringing back the 70 points traits...this would probably solve the problem that some specs are able to do a little to much of everything without having any downsides...the game is just not fun the way it is right now, we just traded condi bullshit for power bullshit, basically same thing with diferent name, both requires low skill to pull off and both are not fun to play with/against it...seeing people flying around the map with "perma" 25 stack of might, regen, swiftness, protection, fury, retal, etc is just ridiculous, pray to have a stunbreak of cd, cause if not, you gonna get stunlocked and see your health pool go from 100% to 0% in less then a sec, and even if you manage to avoid this crap and try punish the player for missing his burst, all he have to do is press a skill to use one of his many "get our jail cards", its laughable...even funnier is the people that scratch their heads wondering "Why are people quitting the game mode?"

Hiki.9310 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I would like to see the power creep in a kalla/mallyx build that makes people think that a direct nerf to condition damage in general is warranted instead of just nerfing the over performing condition builds like mirage.

If you can't hang with the fast pace, that does get annoying, yes. op was also refering to wvw, which i did too in my first post (the one not directed to you) i even said in pvp its not as much powercreep as in wvw. have you ever played wvw in a zerg or in a gvg? happens countless times that you die instantly from 100 to 0 in a second, even in 15 vs 15 (which isnt a very big number) and its pure badluck when that happens because most of the time just 2 big hits coming in at the same time hitting both you out of those 15 ppl to drop you. for example rev cor with 8k dmg flying around, you cant dodge em all, and boons arent always there not to mention last weeks meteor week ( which i know wasnt intended as such, but 10-20k can be a oneshot easily)i never even said something about oneshots,dunno why you even get hung up about them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peutrifectus.4830 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Nah. The power creep is real. Whoever said pvp is kind of addressed is wrong. I stopped playing a few years ago and came back for the release of PoF and the difference is INSANE! I haven't felt a creep, I missed the curve, I ran into it face first. Things like this need addressing because it can kill games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derm.4932 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 They already did one powercreep nerf like 3 or 4 balance patches ago. Outside of Mesmer not getting hit hard enough, the community largely agreed that it was a very good patch. The problem is that the PoF specs were so stupidly overpowered compared to everything else that it wasn't enough, but it did shorten the power gap by a bit. They need to do another repeat of that patch and balance will be in a good spot, provided they actually go far enough. Whatever they do though, I hope it's abundantly clear to them that outside of rev, HoT specs are all garbage right now and they need to do something to bring PoF specs in line.

If the cauals don't understand what i mean the game will die out. There are a lot of guys that has died because of this kind of thing happening and those games were better then gw2.

I said pre hot was the best balance in game and that is the goal they need to aim for. pre hot everything was really close to each other and was about how good a player you were this time was really fun. If they want to get fast back to good balance they need to nerf everything that i said with 50% and the outlayers like rev, mirage thief andso on with a 60 or 70% nerf. You don't need to buff other class to get them on the same level with the outlayers. No you nerf the outlayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
