beastudyr.4691 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I thought we were promised frequent balance adjustments, but so far that seems to have been a lie. There's some very clear outliers and outright broken skills out there that should've been fixed 3 weeks ago. The most notable one being that bombkit auto.

primatos.5413 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Nothing new... Anet often tells storys they think people want to hear and than act like they never said such things.. expect nothing but dissapoint ed expectations ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocki.4931 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 We just barely crossed the "4 to 6 week" goal, which wasn't even set in stone. Then the whole world went into lockdown around 5 weeks ago. Can you maybe see why there isn't a patch yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knite.1542 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I think frequent is a relative term. The patches are more frequent than they used to be. Also there is a global pandemic that might be affecting this. Additionally, Anet 'promises' don't mean anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I say cut them some slack. Many of them may be working from home, and if you have kids then you know that is difficult to do. Covid had thrown a wrench into the balance machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAN.7314 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'll give them a pass because of the pandemic going on, but a little communication from Anet would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widmo.3186 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Its hard to transport things from one place to another without going outside, using cars/planes etc.If there only existed industry that could be completly fine with working from home and doing same (or 90% of the usual work)...Hmmm....

Vornollo.5182 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Even while working from home, communications have slowed down in all fields of work, whether or not nigh on 100% of it can be done digitally.There's things to keep in mind like refactoring and reviewing of code, test servers for QA jadajadajada. Processes simply slow down because everyone needs to get used to the new and evolving situation...While playing games doesn't require you to do much, creating them kind of does... Give them some room, sheesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeyspit.3965 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 It would be easy to just say "That's ANET for you", but the Covid pandemic is certainly having an impact, and we should be grateful we're getting content updates at all at this point.

Stand The Wall.6987 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I realize its too early for the big patch but they are failing at faster incremental changes. they did do a mini patch for pvp which was nice, but forgot about wvw (no surprise).

KrHome.1920 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 The balance is quite good (the best since at least 4 years). No hotfixes are needed. No broken mesmers, no broken revenants, no broken thieves and no broken necros.They could lower the overall (every single class! not just necro) sustain a bit more but this takes more time than 4 weeks.At the moment power builds run full berserker or full marauder to be able to kill condi bunkers. And condi builds run bunker gear because power builds can afford to run full berzerker or full marauder. Every other gear is useless. The damage is not too low. The sustain is too high.

Give them some room, sheesh.Agree, I work in the software industry while most people in my office are more prepared to be able to work from home, not everyone is setup for maximum functionality, efficiency and production and it is a change.They dont have a decent work setup or anything near as efficient as multiple monitors and PCs like in the office. They are using laptops to remote in but it's not as efficient as their office setup. If you're use to team collaboration in person and talking issues and approaches out, this takes time to get accustom to. Its understandable Anet and other MMO studies have had to slow some rollouts down. Not to mention anyone with young kids and children are home that dont give you 8 hours of silence to work. Its reasonable things would slow down and cutting them some slack is the right thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pninak.1069 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 I think condi dmg is too low still. they could remove dmg from condi applicating skills to make it more inline and change the dmg to an additional condi stack. the players going for long condi duration just punish players that don't use condi cleanse. at the moment we have hybrid dmg builds and not really pure condi builds.

pninak.1069 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 so far it in big zerg fights condi do hardly any dmg at all even if you got a lot of stacks on you. you are still more likely to die to power damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
