its a necessary evil in this game
because there is no way to truly counter healing besides death.
and by counter im talking about disease and by disease i mean how crappy the current iterations of it are.
that and the lack of silences
i hope daggers get a silence swing, invisibility and a very strong reposition of some sort.
really hoping one tree will be MASSIVE damage that bypasses armor types. while the other tree be a monster debuff tree.
Oh man…don’t even get me started. You need like 3 different sources of disease just to kind of counter a light healers heals. So crazy. Literally Rends are more anti-heal than the actual anti-heal.
oops and there goes the oblivion.
What the heck is up with that change too??? Made no sense to me.
well to be fair it did make it a MUST HAVE in wars.
just because of the healer and clump fighting issues.
but i dont think it deserved getting that nerfed.
So are a lot of other skills 
Damage through I-frames.
ngl. thinking about how things with in traditional RPGS
id like it so the 300 dex gives dodges true i frames while non dex users could get half damage.
As long as Greataxe and especially Gravity Well stays the way it is, New World will always have the same stale Metagame that slowly but surely led to the massive loss of interest from PvP players.
its bad yo.
but at least 3v3s should take the bulk of interest for about a month.
by then a new dungeon or mutation for another month
then another pvp update or something
ags is laying the foundation for some grueling work coming up.
No way haha
I just want dodges to have non active startup and recovery frames.
id take almost anything over whats going on now.
id much rather everything be slightly smaller in scale. slower and more chunky with thoughtful actions and counters over dodge and ability spam.
blocking is never even part of the conversation outside of 2 niche scenarios thats going to be gone in a second too.
The devs told you that you were the best tank in New World, or is that a claim that you are making, and the devs comment was limited to being the only person to clear an M10 with 5 con in light armor?
Its tough. With ranged players and casters melee has tocbe somewhat wvasive to close the gap whole. Its just hard to balance. Imo they shouldnt even try to perfectly balance. Just make all weapons feel fluid and fun and have a niche and no weapon best at everything. Theres plenty of modes
What happened to oblivion? Did I miss something with the next update notes?
My favorite class type in most muds/mmos has always been stealth based with a huge initial attack coming out from hiding. Assassins/stealth are great classes for those with a lone wolf, anti-zerg mentality. I generally find that these type of classes, similar to NW assassins, are the most tactical to play. You need good positioning and surprise in order to be successful. They are also among the easiest classes to counter as long as one maintains situational awareness. Yet in spite of that they almost always tend to get the most calls for nerf. I think it’s because the majority of people are addicted to the zerg and hate to get picked off at the edge….
no longer cancels out sacred.
Nice, thanks for posting that i will check out your twitch channel.
Ive not yet experimented with a light healer/tank paladin type build. I have all the drops so could experiment a bit with swapping in some relevant healer gear and a life staff.
Ive recently been playing with a medium tanking set and it goes ok. Big difference will be the chest piece. Hmmmm
Yes. Opr was so fun today. Grav wells and ice storms galore. Cant catch light players my ass. I have 20+m range advantage and I get caught by something everytime and flooded with grav wells, ice stoms. stun stun stun stun stun 2 second killed with no control over it over and over and over again. If I do get away I just get pegged by musket. Sorry boys but this combat just isnt it.
