Melancholy Forever.3965 Posted Tuesday at 06:43 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:43 AM Just make it behave like a stun : if the target has stability it doesnt work and removes one stack of stability, and if anyone aoe break stun it would remove the moa effect. Its the only fun skill to annoy those perma stealth thieves or other non-interactive builds present in wvw... 🙂 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Tempest.7584 Posted Tuesday at 11:30 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:30 AM They certainly should do something because after gutting the duration 66% it's completely worthless, leaving few elite skill options. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanogrid.7283 Posted Tuesday at 12:50 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:50 PM (edited) At the very least remove the 750ms evade/dodge from the number 5 skill "Flee". I've been trying to find a reason to use this new 2 second updated version of the signet, but at its current state it benefits more the adversary than me, by giving him a 3rd evade/dodge. Either improve the 2 second duration to something more reasonable (I understand that 6 seconds was a bit too much), or remove the "Flee", or add some other active utility to it. They didnt simply nerf moa, they completely destroyed it. It still amazes me how can this happen when other broken specs have been running around for months without the balance team doing anything about them. Watch them nerf core warrior spear before willbender or stealth. 🤣 Edited Tuesday at 01:52 PM by Nanogrid.7283 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no, your "i win" button was nerfed? A nearly un-counterable and unfair skill was nerfed?  What a shame.  But don't worry, with the right build you can still do 20k dmg within the 2 seconds of moa, to 100% to 0 your opponents. At least in WvW. Edited Tuesday at 06:08 PM by Sonork.2916 1 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchonWing.9480 Posted Tuesday at 10:01 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:01 PM (edited) What they should do is restore the 6s duration but buff the moa skills. The moa itself should be the counterplay and it'd be funny to peck people to death as a bird. Then it'll just become a skill check. People that know what they're doing will live. Dumb commanders that run 1500 range ahead of their zergs will still die and the balance team should stop catering to them.

True, and mesmers get both, how nice for them. XD It's like their class was designed to be as unfun as possible for their opponents to fight.

Dropping an enemy while in Moa form is always fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willybender need nerfs to mobility in WvW for the burst it has and sustain. Dodging initial burst may be sometimes impossible so you also need condi cleanse to get rid of immobilize and few evades to deal with high damaging skills. The real l2p issue have players that need to abuse stealth, moa or other bs mechanics that are only fun for exactly 1 player, the abuser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes cos engis were the main reason these boonball commanders complained and mesmer got nerfed instead of Engi. There is no other class that gets a nerf more than mesmer in WvW, even a single complaint and there is a nerf. But complaints about WB, Harb, Thief...Anet just doesn't care. How badly do you get stun lock by a Mesmer Moa? The real stunlock is with Engi....you get pulled by magnet, you get turned into moa, you then get knocked back by rifle 4 and then knockback again by 2x Battering Ram. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
