AGS, 1 PERK can buff magic weapons

Stop Tweeking and Just allow Rogue Perk on Magic weapons. Thats it, it is so Simple.

All that burning doesn’t help in PvE when you are being judged by great swords killing trash before your burn ramps up to 6 stacks and is hitting on top of burning. (stands there for 5 seconds on bomb and it has more life than time left. Melee comes and kills it in 2 seconds. All they see is why is that still at 50%) I love ramp up classes, but I fear because of hybrid games and balance issues this type of build is always OP or very lacking. when altered to fit one style of play better(PvP/PVE).

Oh, look. I charged up a fireball or use a cooldown. sub par hit… oh it’s buring neato, I’ll try 5 more… oh its died already while I made big plans to stack burns. Good job other classes that instant hit without lag animations added.

The Burn dot is FN weak, Musket burns does 400 plus damage

Firestaff needs a rework.

  • Fireball is an ok skill.
  • Pillar has a shitty target system, small area and low damage.
  • incinerate has a good damage but it is too risky to be useful, doesn’t have any CC.
  • Flamethrower is a meme skill. only useful on arena, but after light armor nerf and grestsword release, it is almost impossible to use it.
  • burn out is a good and needed skill, but it casting time is too high for a skill that doesn’t have GRIT. it needed either grit or a faster cast.
  • Meteor swarm is the worst skill of the entire game. it is a channeling skill, with poor (maybe the poorest) damage, no CC and the DOT damage is mitigated by any healing over time skill from a healer with 100 Focus.

Firestaff base damage is at least 15% lesser than bow base damage.
it’s range is not as long as bow or musket
There’s no animation cancelling attack like bow (penetrating shot + normal shot).
Firestaff damage is like a sponge damage, it does low AoE damage, so it’s easily healed.

It is the worst weapon of the game right now.
it doesn’t have any purpose. we don’t use it neither on PvE or PvP.
I think that even if firestaff does double damage on PvE, we wouldn’t use it, because hatchet and Greatsword would still be better.
