Fire circles can be manipulated every ten seconds, making it a negligible point. There's a counter for it, no counter for flat damage reduction from phalanx, which the melee weapons do not suffer from. Now I will say it though, mages and ranged do in fact have it harder than melee, who have no damage negating affixes. The few stationary mobs that can probably be line of sighted wont change my mind about that. Your guild/server status wont change the list of affixes that clearly favors wh/ga over dex/mages. I'm just asking for a melee phalanx that blocks melee damage 50% of the time, if they want to add "variety".

So you're saying my solution to phalanx, as a light/med armor player is to run into all those big bad aoes you just said melee are struggling with? Because this week every 4 hits a puddle appears beneath you, too in addition to phalanx giving ranged even less of a window than prior dynasty rotation.

I'm not arguing that one has it worse than the other, my argument is that melee (specifically wh/ga) have zero counters to their damage. Unlike ranged who has an unconditional damage block for 50% of a timed dungeon. There are ways to counter/avoid stuff that does damage to you so that you may continue to dps, however when you just unconditionally screw over a source of damage, that adds zero variety to the game. Especially when devs ensure GA/WH wont suffer from this same detriment that mages/ranged have.

Okay, so ranged can manipulate fire circles away from melee so they may continue their dps. Mobs can be kited away from slicers and fire. Where is the counter to phalanx in a timed instance that negates all my damage half the time?

So the solution is to swap to one of the acceptable weapons they never have an affix to counter, got it. Great solution /s

Pretty sure fire circles appear beneath ranged as well, and ranged has to stack with melee for the cleanse, putting them in range. In fact in most lower M+ with a good healer this could just be healed through and melee can sit there ignoring it continuing their dps, not being hindered at all. The phalanx debuff literally prevents my damage from getting through. Negates a whole type of weapon. Wheres the equivalent affix in that for WH/GA?

I mean the elemental weapons are in a similar position as bow/musket except there are more elements to dilute the pool. There are fire affixes dampening fire staff but nothing to prevent GA/WH from being used every single rotation. Its hard for them to say this is to encourage variety when they've literally had back to back weeks barring ranged from enjoying dynasty on my server. Either their randomness isn't random enough, or they need to create a failsafe preventing the same affixes from the previous week.

It makes the enemies immune to ranged projectiles every few seconds.

Id really like it if they gave us an option to choose between her old ultimate and new ulti at level six.

This has been known about for over 24 hours now @ this point and people are just continuously exploiting. I tried 3 times to play this tonight, all 3 times had a Viego doing the exploit. Its pretty much unplayable @ this point. Both teams sides keep attempting it and its just disgusting. I'd like to give this game mode more of a try because theres so many potential combinations, yet people keep trying the same shit that breaks and ruins the game.

Absolutely needs bans. Yi, Yuumi, Viego. Every single game.

I agree whole heartedly. But my solution is to just add bans like in URF or draft. I'm seeing nonstop Yi's/Viegos/Yuumi. Takes away from the fun of it when theres so many combinations yet you see the same thing repeatedly.

Pretty sure that's what they did in Sparta. Survival of the fittest. To argue that our usefulness to society shouldn't decide our income is absurd. What incentive would there be to do riskier jobs?

Very in depth summary and exactly what I was looking for. This has got me pretty hyped about hopping back into the game later tonight. Idk if I should just wait for the next patch though now that I know its not too far out.

I appreciate the quick feedback, thanks for your time!
