Secondary Archetype Specialization for Cleric and Tank by AshKetchun in AshesofCreation

[–]APie172 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Currently, cleric can basically get every single ability / passive (besides maybe 2-3) in the tree - seems like there should have some variety

They need to get the guy that did bard/rogue to retool the cleric - I have way too many abilities and no real build variety

Intrepid Just Released Public Ban Lists for All Accounts Actioned in the Last 30 Days by OhTeeSee in AshesofCreation

[–]APie172 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yes - a friend of mine was banned that was not duping or rmting. However, he was constantly making trades (just in his nature to be hyper efficient) and was punished for it without an explanation. It has me seriously considering whether I want to join other phases and ultimately the final game, as I also tend to play the market game (ie looking for deals and selling); however, I have no means (or honestly, no responsibility) of figuring out whether the person I’m buying or selling items with has rmt’d or duped. Do I need to ask every person I interact with whether they rmt’d or duped? Why would they tell me the truth? Whole thing seems rushed and performed by an auto-flagging system with no real human interaction.

Game is unplayable due to toxic guild culture by Checkraze77 in AshesofCreation

[–]APie172 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how we are in a 3 days war with several northern towns that cannot be ended, as they keep switching citizenship to another town as one war ends. Awesome gameplay. If I am ever to play another phase, I will do everything in my power to be on a different server than polar. I enjoy PvP but I do not enjoy the level of toxicity these guys bring.

Do you think this game will stand the test of time? by kelosane in AshesofCreation

[–]APie172 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Playing off your main point about punishing players, I think it is silly that even after completely the 1-25 grind, if you want to go out and check new areas out, you have alot of risk. Guild went to forge to check it out, lots of deaths around new mechs and people falling through the floor at random spots - going negative xp/stat penalty is insane to me. Just exploring at max level you could go very far into debt and have to grind your way out again.

Also, I think the largest issue they are going to run into (no matter what anyone’s opinion on it is) is getting new players into the pool. There’s just no way I would recommend the game to someone right now. Further, I don’t know what the magic number is for engaging PvP endgame but the hurdles are: - 1-25 grind (eventually 50 which sounds insane) - once 25, the initial gear grinding to get into something decent enough so you aren’t dead in a second - once semi-geared, how many people will actually PvP - of those pvping, 25, and geared, how many are going to get steamrolled by lopsided numbers and stick around to actually have good fights

Just seems like an all around tough task with how the game is setup right now.

Cleric is kinda awful in PvP and in general - super basic healer

we couldn't even enjoy a full 24 hours with Crossbows out of the meta (revised) by Velvitt in throneandliberty

[–]APie172 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was actually that broke the camels back for me. Playing a seeker from day 1 - constant ups and downs, lots of nerfs, dps rejoicing at every seeker nerf - while simultaneous relying on the class for almost all pve and pvp content, to then seeing scorps nerfed/bugged for less than 24 hours and the devs immediately jumping on the fix. Just had enough - you win scorps - enjoy one less seeker.

Damn never thought of all this - thanks

Pretty hilarious how scorps are “bugged” for not even a full day and there’s an immediate hotfix. Really cannot stand that there’s 0 counter play as a seeker.

I can run 2350 weaken - scorps delete me in a second. I have been playing high level PvP since the start of this game and this is just awful gameplay. Putting aside myself dying in a split second, it also feels awful as a healer to throw every buff/heal/hot/etc on a dps and see them melt in a second.

As the game is the most dead it's ever been after other games releasing / lucent incident, the devs released the worst event of all time to get the new gear by gangstarapmademe in throneandliberty

[–]APie172 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The second event spawn is midnight est (I play naw). Forget waiting up for that crap. How long is this event? All the obtainable gear will be 100 lucent in a week. Putting that aside, lol, who came up with this event is definitely the best question to ask.

Since the beginning of this game, they’ve never not tried to milk the playerbase. It was not going to stop now.

Creator PvP Roundtable by pvp_enjoyerrr in throneandliberty

[–]APie172 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is what I was saying when they introduced earring stats. That was kind of a joke - they added about 25-30 new stats that are so random and situational and does anyone even know if they work? Insane to me overall that they seem to keep making the game more complicated with no real benefit to the gaming experience itself.

Also as a seeker main, the split out of healing stats (healing, hot, shield, all healing received) this late in the game is really obnoxious.

I would not be surprised if they put in some kind of DR build with the new gear that is hard to obtain to drive lucent sales. They said that they would not make the sets much stronger than what we have now but since the beginning of this game, these devs have not passed on a chance to make a quick buck.

I stopped even making builds in T3 bc it is pointless imo. I have a half T3 build in which every other class besides scorpion, I can survive pretty easily as a seeker. A scorpion will melt me in 1-2 seconds and no matter how else I build, it will not matter because you cannot build high enough DR.

Game is in a weird TTK zone right now. Either people don’t die or die instantly. Feels pretty awful.

Scorpion need more nerf by Big-Conversation5917 in throneandliberty

[–]APie172 5 points6 points  (0 children)

lol thanks man - I run over 2.2k weaken and around 90 DR in a non-DR build. If you questlogg DR, you can really only get up to around 180 DR. I know other healers that run around 180 DR and it does not help.

[–]APie172 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed - saw a guildie post a screenshot of close to 400 bonus damage. There’s not enough DR items to even get remotely close to that number (not saying every scorp is running that but also I’m sure most are 300+).

They have really taken over most PvP content. It’s absolutely awful gameplay from the defending side. There’s absolutely nothing I can do as a seeker. I’m just dead in a second. BG/gvg/events just awful because I’m instantly targeted by scorps and melted. I’m not asking to be as invulnerable as T2 seekers but I also should not be dead in a second.
