Wolf.1972 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Nah, I say implement a system where anyone who makes a DH gets permanently removed from PVP. This would help clean up PVP to become an overall better game mode ridding us of the FoTM losers 😎 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But should every team be forced to run potentially multiple of that support (3x cata) just for condi cata? and does the fact rev support countered it HARD, mean condi cata was not opressive AF to other specs? Get outta here "bruh". Genuinely, you could set up dome, and just spam hammer auto attacks to counter 2 condi catas damage, but it doesnt changethe fact condi cata was kitten kitten, just like DH. Only diff here.. the playerbase left is basically garudians, necros and warriors + SB.. defending the kitten out of horrible mechanics becuase you all got use to crutches.  Last game I played was against an X top 50 power herald. He absolutely dominated the game, I was on power vindi, and just not fast enough to react to his skills. Perfect.. thats how it should go (although we can argue at g1 I should not be in the same game as a top 50, even if he was just placing). However.. if I was sitting on scourge, BS, something like that? I would have shut his burst down through crutch face tank mechanics.. not skill. We were both on specs that = death if you do not mitigate properly (he kited like any decent herald does, thats part of not melting for them). Can we get the game back to that? or shall we just keep encouraging bs like DHs, rushing points, never dodging , and pumping out rediculous low skill area denial. Its fking kitten that a game like this has such a high skill floor with the dodge system, and then Anet and the playerbase completely kitten all over that with specs that are increasingly being rewarding for just face tanking while spamming dps buttons. When I say face tank, I also mean the abundence of block/invuln abilitys still allow the player to attack and just spam dps keys, never touching the dodge key, until it is litterally a last resort after failing the kill.  At the same time, I don't wanne see the days back where you die in <2 seconds to a jump spec becuase you missed 1 dodge.. thats also bs. I got ganked by a jump mirage like that the other day, I had used dodges on another plater during a group fight, the guy I was attacking was on the retreat, the mirage jumped, I instantly swaped legend to use an evade skill but died before I could press it. It was litteraly a 2 second down>cleave. Specs like that are what pushed the game into lower skill face tanking bunkers.. power gank is part of the problem. You should wait, till people realize there's an extremely tanky necro build, the tears from you after that is gonna be amazonggggg 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh buddy, tsk tsk, not like the build I'm talking bout, makes all other necro builds look even more squishy than they already are. Clearly you and alot of people have not figured it out yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aegis on trap (that's new, anything else?) 2. Classes that kept DH in check were nerfed (e.g. short bow renegade was pretty good against DH pre-EoD) 3. ??? Maybe there is a lack of scepter catas which are naturally good against DH. Or even rangers in general after they were nerfed. Power mesmers seem to handle DH well but they're also in short supply. I think you got it, especially in regard to Ranger which can bait out traps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
