My ship is floating on this sea of tears from the light armor andy’s QQ about changes they have not even seen. Imaging becoming upset about possible changes and wasting that energy over a nothing burger until the patch notes come out. Y’all need to get a grip.
Breaks out the wakeboard lets ride!
Well, they said light armor users will take more crit damage and less fortify from shriking fort. So that’s enough to get info to get people going. So while all of the changes are not listed, these have been announced and people don’t think it’s the right call. Me included.
Well, some do and some don’t. I run light today, having moved from a heavy build months ago. While I certainly enjoy the mobility and increased damage output I also understand that upping the risk factor isn’t automatically a bad thing.
Except there is already huge risk, getting hit by one wrecking ball or shock wave can lead into instant death, also it indirectly buffs muskets and bows and firestaffs and also detonates. Healers are going to die even faster etc. the light dodge was never the problem, dex weapons and certain passive that give perma haste or less stam i dodges or perks like stam recovery make people able to run forever. Not the light dodge specifically. Now they are making it into non viable status rather than addressing weapons and their traits that give them perma haste etc. just overall will be a bad change and increasing the insanely fast time to kill to even faster. Yeah people are mad.
Another thing, I took me over 1 year to get a full bis set for my light mage. Now if these changes go through, all that time and effort spent getting it is down the drain. Ya people like me are mad.
This should never affect decision to do some pvp related changes. Players have to expect changes.
Issue is changes they talk about are crap. LA now is in ok spot at best. I would arguee that on places like arena its weakest armor now.
While yea changes are bound to happen Except new world isn’t like other mmos, where everything about a specific class is given to you and to everyone. New world doesn’t operate that way. If you go play fire mage in wow, you get to max level and go online and look up a build and copy and paste, they’re isn’t anything you are excluded from. Same in gw2. But I’m new world you have to get each individual armor and weapon price with a certain attribute and perk selection. This not something people get for free, you have to farm materials and roll for gear and hope you get what you want, or farm for gold and try to find a item you are looking for with the specific perks. So when devs make changes that make something go from viable to useless, that throws all that can investment out the door. It’s a problem and will hurt the longevity of the game imo.
Depends on changes. If they change to much to fast then yea.
