Cambeleg.7632 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 @"Aenaos.8160" said:Even after the almighty balance patch it is still possible for a class to exit stealth and delete a high sustain heavy class in under 2 seconds. Literally, I was on a Guardian FB, a PP Thief came out of stealth without any hint of it being there before, and within the time it took me to dodge and try to counter with a reflect while it was unloading I was in downed state. I wasn't more than 2 secs. I'll speak only for my case, but in a game where there is no carrot to persue and the quality of the game play is what attracts and keeps a player playing, this kind of bs ends up hurting the game. Of course I'm sure the other guy had fun. I find amusing two points:The usual cry about Stealth (that I can agree at some point, since some builds are broken 'cos being able to stack it without pause).To say "almighty balance patch" and still complain 'cos being downed after 2 secs.Logic behind all this? I don't find any, tbh. So next time, don't AFK in a place where a thief can ambush you like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blp.3489 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 From the balance notes:Counterplay is important. Skills that have a major impact on an enemy player should allow that player the opportunity to react, which means that we want to avoid instant skills that do large amounts of damage or hard cc.I think this explains why I find stealth frustrating.

Kovu.7560 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I wish guardian had more HP rather of an inane amount of healing and defense and an absolutely ridiculous amount of group support compared to other professions, but we don't all get what we want.I got insta-gibbed by a blackstab heartseeker quickness combo on my marauder core ranger the other day, as well. They've been doing it since the launch of the game. I'm sure they don't enjoy it when I shoot at them from half way across the map. It happens. That sort of thing bothers me less than stealth which itself bothers me less than evasion spam (-- also prevalent on some elemenalist builds).~ Kovuedit- incidentally, what do melee folks even do against immob-spamming rifle builds?

That's not "the strawman he wants to build", that's what OP claims and you referred him to what OP wrote.
