Arlette.9684 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Whenever I see a Mesmer in the opponent’s team, I relog on my core (f2p) Warrior with fullcleanse spec and spam /laugh on point while tunneling 7k Rampage skills. If all the SBs out there get their heads out of their rears and realize that Core > SB ( ifyou don’t want to snooze on passives),well you kids wouldn’t be complaining about Mirages so much.We get it Mirage is OP,ANet has acknowledged that it’s OP, it will be nerfed in some way for sure, likely with Condi thief right next to it and we’ll all move on to the next broken spec. I say Bruiser Holo or Core warr because OMGWTFBBQWENTONFIRE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravan.3876 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Rev will be the new hero when the condi specs get nerfed, ok holo is pretty braindead spamfest but it doesnt have as much problems with condi as Rev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those games run on a monthly, or faster, balance patch cadence. Those games (LOL/DoTA in particular) also have much larger quarterly balance patches with dozens of "builds (Heroes/Champions) getting adjusted at once. I think DoTAs last patch changed something like 90 of 110 heroes. They then tweak the patch between bi-weekly and monthly to make mostly minor balance changes to address the largest issues. TL;DR: 1 Quarter of Riot/Valve patches makes more tweaks than 5 years of ArenaNet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TL;DR: 1 Quarter of Riot/Valve patches makes more tweaks than 5 years of ArenaNet.This. It seems like they run their balancing with a waterfall model behind a long release cycle which seems counter productive. When you're trying to balance a physical scale you don't spend months calculating how much sand to add to each side, instead you at a little sand at a time and see what happens then quickly add a little more. I'm sure there is some business reason behind not switching over to something like a two week/one month dev cycle but I think it really cripples the viability of the games PvP. It's better that they change things quickly, break them, then quickly change them again than try to factor out all the balance implications over months while the community sits in the dark with (news flash) already broken system. The system will always be a little broken too, prefect balance is pretty much impossible so the solution would be to change balance often so it can be more closely brought it line and there is no one imbalanced abused for too long. ! This is just the lowly opinion of a software developer from a small companyEDIT: More ranting. The community would not be nearly as upset (still have some that will be) either if they knew they only had to deal with issues for 2-3 weeks. It's not just the fact that mesmer is broken right now that frustrates people, it's knowing that it's not going to change any time soon. Sure, ANET has addressed that they recognize the problem but that doesn't fix anything. This would also give people more of a reason to play not-as-meta classes that they actually enjoy instead of having to hop to the new flavor of the balance patch to be competitive. "Oh, {insert class} might get buffed in the next month or two and be meta I might as well stick with and play what I enjoy." Granted people can play whatever they want anyways and should play all the professions to be competitive but when you're forced into playing professions you don't enjoy for long periods of time this burns you out on the game. Ok, rant done for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
