Spam every skill avail instead of waiting it out or not being hit by massively telegraphed skill? Literally the only thing that you have to avoid vs virtuoso, and he would have been dead if these eles wouldnt have spammed skills like apes with confusion. His near death state during the "duels" proves that when eles are full hp all the times while hes about to die. When you go to wvw for a montage of backpeddling ppl spamming autoattacks, that proves the point /s. One could go and make a montage out of core engi absolutely dominating npc-like players. These guys in the voice be like "Oh wow, 20 confusions!" and proceed to spam skills. Question arises, is this a some kind of setup fishing for views/likes or hes just that bad? 3 hours ago, ArthurDent.9538 said: 8k without confusion procs so it only takes 1 skill use to start one shotting low health pool classes that didn't stack vitality or have a cleanse readily available. Care to prove your claim? So, you expect to get away with your BS when you dont have cleanses vs conditions and running around with 11k hp? Why should you? Like... what? Is that real complain or some bad trolling attempt? And I couldnt care less if they would nerf it into oblivion (they alrdy did with the last patch), its just funny, game is 10 year old, people cant l2p and stop spamming skills into confusions. By the way, you know what happens when you have 20 burns (bleeds/poison/torment with enough duration) and you are "low health pool classes that didn't stack vitality or have a cleanse readily available" ? As you can guess, you will also die. Edited July 3, 2022 by semak.7481 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvia.4870 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 One shot hit with a single ability, dealing a quite high damage and a single combo, combined with some skills in order to take down an opponent are very different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArthurDent.9538 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 LMAO everyone getting so defensive on the virtuoso f2. All im saying is if you get hit by it and happen to use 2+ skills which lets be real that's going to happen sometimes then it can easily do enough damage to deplete some entire health pools. Sometimes it may take some extra follow up pressure to force players to try to defend themselves to proc the big confusion damage, or just catch them in a plus 1 when they are already using skills to try to survive. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you can see below, he is entitled to think, conditions specially that come from mesmer shouldnt do damage and shouldnt kill anyone, because if he plays ~11k hp class and have absolutely no cleanses, he must live anyway. Otherwise, I'd expected to see ~400 threads sayin nothing should kill him at any circumstances It reminds me of holo that I condi-bombed with over 26 stacks of confusion, guy ran at me with quickness and almost killed me by spamming 5k dmg auto-attacks. I had to blink away to survive. He kept spamming air, died and then PMed me with slurs saying mesmer is OP. This is average pvp enjoyer this days.

It does require special setup with traits Blinding Dissipation and Ineptitude, otherwise you can't stack that many confusion. The clip you mentioned, it's guide below and the player tells you within the first 40 secs of the clip that it's just a "1 trick pony." Sadly something you keep falling to. he was giving an example of how strong it can be you tryhard. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I have no evades, I have 1hp, Ihave no cleanses, why I should die to this?! Why should I die when mesmer (actually, insert any class that can plus) plus me if I have no cooldowns, dont use any LoS, blocks, cleanses, evades and whatnot? Why I cant spam skills while I have 20 confusions (thats the only way to die to this btw)? Where is my freedom to be bad against this class in particular and get away with it?" I mean the latter, is aldy here but that doesnt help him it seems Edited July 3, 2022 by semak.7481 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrHome.1920 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 What's the point in even starting a discussion whether a kill in less than a second can be defined as a oneshot or not? Nitpicking? Boredom? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing. The social test provided in this thread seems to be yielding results that the people in this forum who actually take their time to insult other forum users, are the ones lacking information who don't even play the game anymore. Totally agree with you. That is kind of odd. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
