ANet do something about thisThey already did, they've given players the ability to use Rangers which vaporize necros without batting an eyelash. If you have a problem with necros, use a Ranger. A single ranger can easily be a thorn in the side of a group of necros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few have any meaningful projectile hate, and none of them have great mobility.all of em run in a pack they just pop their barriers and laugh at you.like saying a thief will tear em apart but in order to do so u need to get in first same with ranger u can focus one down bit away from his blob but inside a blob u constantly hit other people.u see shades are just OP like it or not, its like old necro but instead of marks all staff skills would be wells and whenever u cast them u get 2/3k hp back and have little to no CD :) wouldnt that be cool just dump wells all over the place constantly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(you can run and protect yourself but eventuLly they get you if there is 12 condi necros dropping on you AT THE SAME TIME! No other class does that (yet??) in WvW!

Vova.2640 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 if scourges get nerfed too hard too many times, power reapers are going to become the new OP.Scourges are literally what's preventing power reapers to be played effectively.@Zero.3871 said:True...List of Classes that need to get toned down:-Warrior (Dmg, Sustain)-Mesmer (Everything)-Scourge (Condi)-Firebrand (Support)This list is spot on.FB needs to lose pretty much all of its healing capabilities. IT already provides an insane amount of boons, there is no reason to overshadow other healing professions as well. Big nerf to FB healing might bring heal tempest/druid back into the meta. Tho I hope to see some tempest/druid buffs, maybe add more boons to those classes on their support abilities.Scourge needs a nerf to sand savant trait. Lower range bonus. Maybe make extra range apply ONLY to the shades. Right now they simply cover too much of the battleground with condi fields..Also hammer rev is still king when it comes to spiking with power dmg...

MedievalThings.5417 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 They just need to remove all "sharing", of any kind. No boons, no stats, etc.They designed the game with "no trinity" to make everyone to survive on their own. Remove the sharing, and rebalance the classes to match what they pitched at launch.

Heimdallr.5421 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Btw, anyone did notice, that when you dps single target - golem for example as a reaper with trait Close to Death, which sounds awesome - 20% damage buff after hp of target drops below 50%! isnt that great? - why the hell I do 400-500 more dps with Signets of Suffering trait instead?...srsly what is going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scourge damage, for the most part, can be cleansed. If you're running with a group that is on point with their cleanse game the Scourge won't be an issue. Also Elementalists can build for far more active defense than a Scourge can. I'm still getting hit with 5-6K fireballs and 8-10K meteors in full TB gear. Not really getting whacked by CoR as much, but can still see the occasional 8K hit. A Scourge has to eat that damage, and hope the toughness and vitality can absorb it. The problem is that zergs are stacking Scourges, because they are lazy, and that's an easy way to produce lots of downs. Stacking Revs or Elementalists could result in faster downs than a Scourge train produces, but would also require slightly more coordination.

Scourges has oddly good power dmg as well as condi dmg as well as support pt and self so this is not just a condi problem alone this is a class problem. Your rev or ele stacking will not help support your team if the rev and ele have to do the dmg where scourge stacking will help both your killing power for both condi dmg and power dmg it also helps your support.There realty no chose in the class what you should be doing as you can do every thing at once and that is an "op" effect in a game more so in wvw when you can stack high numbers of players making the effect all the stronger as scourge having both a dmg and support roll that it can hit 10 targets with its effect making each scourge you add to your group exponential better.

Tammuz.7361 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 TBH the “nerf” that they really need is probably as simple as making resistance corrupt into literally anything other than immobilize...that way resistance doesnt instakill your raid group when you push, and so it can actually be used wvw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now it seems corruption is on the same balnced as boon strip effects and that seems wrong.Condi clear is balanced but condi convention is not boon stop is balanced corruption is not.I just do not get why Anet chose to balance the game like this.

Gustaff.6581 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 hmmmMake shades dissapear if scourge moves to far from them. I mean, that was a thing i saw a lot, lot of kiting.OrIncrease the cooldown of manifest shade, that will make shade repositioning harder if you have sand savant. Why they use sand savant? isnt better demonic lore or feed from corruption?But still is job of the Scourge to be a lawnmower, i mean, to cover terrain withshades to suport allies and damage enemies.

Make the aoe at the scourge feet hit 5 targets with out the trait and make the ranged shade hit 3 ppl when you traits it the ranged shade hits 5 targets but let it some how have up to 3 of them out but each one becomes even higher upkeep added.Scourge should have a strong effect but there should be a price to pay.

Lhiash.4910 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 What is needed is the number of targets scourge can hit at once has to be lowered, making scourge being able to hit 10 enemies with single skill was a mistake. Shade skills around necro should only hit 3 targets and each regular shade should hit 1 target with sand savant hitting 3 (and unnerf the cd). Same thing should be done to Winds of Disenchantment btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
