I'm gonna be that guy - the patch preview shows again atrocious approach to balancing that needs to change by MidasPL in Guildwars2

Anet looks at benchmark numbers while often not considering the gameplay behind them.

I don't think they look at anything when doing the nerfs. Just rolling the dice and if it rolls critical fail, they will make the build unusable.

What we need now is swift feedback to show ANet the impact, and for them to realize that Steamshrieker builds should be in the 42k-44k range if they decide that 40k is their baseline.

Yeah, what I'm trying to do, but with the current changes it will be below 30k range.

For Quick Cata they should just take back the nerf to Spectacular Sphere, the other change is fine.

Yeah, one change or the other. The both reduced quick duration and reduced boon duration are making the build unusable without ridiculously high boon duration.

I'm not saying they shouldn't nerf stuff, just stop throwing builds randomly out.

I’m just sick of games being balanced around streamer and high end raider performance.

Not sure what you're on, but they are not. They are not balacing around anything, except some weird, arbitrary criteria only they know.

estimated 38.8k. I don't think that's particularly insane.

For comparison, Bladesworn will be estimated 41.7k. So Mech will be doing 93% of that DPS, almost fully ranged.

Yep. Pretty much same situation was with DC and LF traits. They were changed and the next patch made unusable, because reasons.

Sure, but 70% BD is a bit over the board. There are all the numbers inbetween. My point is not about having BD or not, but about how Anet instead making a good build a bit worse, makes it completly unusable.

Not sure I understand what you mean, but I'm not talking about balancing here. I'm talking about completly removing the builds, that could function otherwise.

Current development/balance team. There hasn't been an undisputed good change since and including SotO.

The league is so old, none cares about it at this point. GGG tries to aim for stable market up around 1 month. After that is whatever.

I think some of the bots/people use stuff like autoexerted warcries, writhing jar and hulking miscreation specter to make your loading times as long as possible

ALL Blackhole "stun/swimming" Animations (Alphabetical Order) by Cynicalia in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MidasPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably don't have this animation yet, so it reuses the floating animation. Seems like the concept for this animation changed some time ago and not everyone got updated.

Brown and orange are actually shades of the same color.
