Sahne.6950 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Thank you! The last few weeks have been a pleasure with constant balancepatches! keep up the good work! balancing on a regular is showing the community that you care, and even the smallest changes are something new to try out and keep it interesting. 4 1 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wintermute.5408 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 What's "balance"? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astralporing.1957 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Oh, sure. I will start appreciating it. Once they'll start balancing the classes more regularly, of course. And by "more regularly" i don't mean a regular cadence of one balance pass per half a year, for example. Seriously, they're doing several balance passes each expansion. It never lasts, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Anet deserves recognition, support, and praise for not only that promise, but also the increased (and much improved) communication with us on their plans. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fueki.4753 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) Firstly, for all we know, those might not be balance patches, but simply changes for the sake of changing things (as it always has been since 2012). Also, I don't believe in regular changes until they actually happen. Edited March 31, 2022 by Fueki.4753 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tails.9372 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I start appreciating them when they actually try to balance things out in a way that A: isn't just nuking whatever they perceive as "OP", B: isn't just a response to the kneejerk outrage of the week, C : isn't just another round of their seemingly trial and error-esque approach to solve who knows what issue and D : doesn't lead to them stealth nerfing major things they apparently feel uncomfortable justefing (e.g. the self sustain nerfs at the launch of EoD).

I will praise them when i see this acutally happen and see how this will happen. Anet way of balancing this game at the moment is not something i really like. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khisanth.2948 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 They have started many things over the years. The problem is carrying on with them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that before, more than once. And yet here we are. Based on past xperiences, i'll wait for them to actually deliver first before i'll think any appreciations are due. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewenewes.4176 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 The patch notes for untamed were phenomenal. Showed great consideration for the ranger class. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorem.8104 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 lol, a terrible terrible balance patch at EoD launch that only nerfed builds people use to lower their dps on purpose so they can survive in open world but used raids as an excuse to nerf them to again, more nerfs to old E-specs. I don't really call that balancing, I call that "We are throwing a tantrum that no one is playing EoD e-specs for all classes" 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obtena.7952 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) It's funny people complain we don't get enough patches when people don't like the changes anyways. It's especially awesome when it's the same people. Edited March 31, 2022 by Obtena.7952 2 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprise. Also as said above, anet has said many things in the years. I could not even count on one hand how much of it they have actually achieved on a permanent basis. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they hadn't made the exact same promise before and promptly abandoned it, I'd agree. I appreciate the communication, but we'll have to see if they actually stick to it this time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from thief, all of those nerfs were to grossly overperforming no cost sustain traits. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterson.5172 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 5s to 5.2s = balance 5s to 15s = ??? 20% to 18% = balance 20% to 6% = ??? a lot of what anet does really cant be called "balance", more like take a hammer and smash it to bits 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doggie.3184 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) To me, as a Thief, that just sounds like more frequent nerfs. I hope they actually help us for once. And please stop torturing us with Spvp only skills and single-target overdose. Gods, even our healing and support is single-target.
