The Ace.9105 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 So running a heavy armor class with rabid amulet vs a ranger and the outcome in the picture doesn't make any sense. Why does the pet hit you for 9k when you have +900 toughness? Also, the ranger hit me with maul just once and it hit me two times. What is going on there?

HeadCrowned.6834 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Why do you ask for a general pet nerf instead of a gazelle nerf? Its the same as asking to nerf all warrior F2 skills if only one of them is broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give SB a variety of different Function skills it can take and call it a day. When anet nerfs pets they take it to far to the point of making the thing useless.

But rangers already have the stats of other classes, they need to nerf pets and give nothing as trade offYou are correct i didnt realize, but i disagree on that. Pets are the class mechanic, you take that away you need to give something back to the class, without pets base ranger and SB has literally nothing, Druid could lose pets entirely(and it should as a trade off.). Itd be like removing Mesmer Shatters, Or eles Attunements. My biggest concern with the nerfing(and the reason i posted it the way i did) of pets is every time they do, they dont split it from the PVE/wvw version, if they did that, they can go ham with modifying them as much as possible without any complaints from me. But we end up having less and less choices, the core pets are nearly completely un used, the HOT and a few of the POF pets are the most used, and the rest are never taken.

Why would you need to compensate ranger and especially slb for nerfing certain pets? Nerfing certain pets so they can't do 4k damage etc or hard cc opponents outside of merged skills and not while separate from the ranger itself is balanced and would need no compensation as it was a bad design from the start. Especially considering when I slb merges he acquires increased stats and 3 new pet skills. Not all pets should be nerfed and some maybe should be buffed but pets like gazelle definitely should be toned down a notch. As far as I'm concerned all hard cc pet skills should only be accessible through merging as having a hard cc skill being accessible from outside the ranger itself is imo a broken mechanic from the start.

Pets are either OP, or nerfed to the point of being useless, the in-between doesnt seem to exist, but if it did i may point to the smokescale if it still had access to its original F2 skill.

Ok that was mean... true... but mean@azzardome.9184 said:what about chrono, i think its a bit overtuned atm. would suggest -15922 vitality as base traitline in chrono to make it fairFinally a good trade off suggestion makes sense and just like Anet likes to do it, makes the specs unplayable and clunky without adding any skill ceiling or floor. I am pretty sure we will see that in the next balance patch. I also think all Mesmer specs should get that trade off, just because Mesmer and on Chrono it would be a waste of that great idea because no one except Seike plays it.

Eurantien.4632 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Gazelle is overtuned, yet we need to realize what is happening here.Marksmanship, Beastmastery ranger. This class has almost no condi clear, no sustain, and no defensive utilities. It has some serious drawbacks which is why most Rangers run Wilderness Survival instead of Marskmsnship.So why is damage so high?Beastmastery:https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Pack_AlphaStats increased by 150.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Pet%27s_ProwessFerocity increased by 300.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Loud_WhistleLess in play: above 90% hp on ranger pet does 10% more damage.Marksmanship:From Clarion bondhttps://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Lesser_Call_of_the_WildPower increased by 90 from 3 might stacks.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Moment_of_ClarityAfter ranger interrupts pets next hit will do 50% more damage.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/RemorselessWhen the ranger gains fury, pets next hit does 25% more damage.Greatsword:https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Maul_(ranger_greatsword_skill)After the cast, Your pets next hit does 50% more damage.I can pet swap, hilt bash for interrupt, maul, then Gazelle F2 and that F2 is now hitting you from a pet with +240 power; + 450 ferocity, + 125% bonus damage.Personally I think the combo is fine and the person getting into range should be aware this could happen and just kite. There are players who literally never get hit by the pets. That being said, Gazelle damage is just too high for both the F2 and the Charge and both should be shaved or nerfed even as much as like 50% imo. But the rest of the pets imo are fine.Then again, if you just press the W key, he can't get you anyway...Did I get a BINGO?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
