Please chechk your data and the weapons that are used on in PVE and OPR.

Please Play your game and test FS/IG against GA/WH or MS/RP
We have one of the worst DPS
We have the worst CC.
Now IG Heavy freeze and Ice shower are literaly useless
We have the worst mobility.
The only one mobility skill that we have, because of the animation, take years to Cast, is not the same with the GA mobility/gap closing skill that is casted inmediatly or rapier.
Our best ability dont CRIT,
why you dont do the same to other weapon abilities?? Why 1/3 of our FS abilities dont Crit?
We are SLOWED while we are casting a normal basic/heavy attacks, while mele advances several meters really fast while doing a basic/heavy attack. With a simple click, a GA advences 8 meters and we are SLOWED with a simple click… LOL
We are STAGGERED/INTERRUPTED
/STUNNED while we are hitted by a normal basic/heavy atack, while our basic/heavy attacks DON’T aplies STAGGER/INTERRUPT
/STUN
*We have the worst Survavility
While u are hitting a VOIDBENT player, cause the Element Resist, he can come to you, give a kiss, laugh and then kill u with 3 or 4 shots
The solution: go Back with all the changes, we were not the OP class and you nerfed us
Before the changes we were JUST OK, not OP, and if there were a mele conplainign cause Heavy freeze or ice shower… come On! In any RPG a mage SHOULD Beat a mele !!! A mele should beat rangers (dex builds) and rangers should beat Mages .
Because u had peoblems with wars u nerfed us, but 90% of players don’t Play wars.
you have the right to complain and create as many threads as you like, we invest all the time to improve the mage and AGS has made it useless, they need to fix it as soon as possible.
i find it funny how ppl flame the nerf of mages and all i see is mages at top dmg in the wars. something doesnt quiet add up. true they nerfed mages expecially IG but maybe u ned adept ur playstyle and find a way to make it viable again. Tbh thats something i find very interesting to do when builds change.
But as u already did u can also spam the forum and cry the whole day and never change anything.
u know u have more spells? maybe try flamethrower cuz its actually viable, maybe play burn-out to have more movement and kite a bit… u have option, but instead u try something all i see is cry
and for the record, im playing mage and yes i adepted and it wasn that hard and i can still steamroll players.
BURN-OUT! do u read? kite him till hes low and burn him into the ground with flamethrower. man i dont write u a detailed guide here how u can still play mage so that u could stop crying. use ur brain
First of all, you lack the basic intelligence to write proper English so you have already lost any credibility as to anything you say. Second, I read your burn out piece. Using burnout to kite with flamethrower makes no logical sense at all its a close range attack meant to get in someone’s face. This ability works completely contrary to burnout. It makes 0 sense to only buff the close range ability when the meta right now is run by constitution based melee builds that can still out damage you with significantly less investment in their attacking stats while at the same time being able to dish out more damage with much higher health and defense. There is absolutely nothing balanced about that no matter how much mental gymnastics you try to spin things.
sorry if u need to attack me personaly cuz im no native speaker. And yes in one pint u are right. its not balanced but i dont get it why its so hard to find a way around that still works, when its obvsly there. cant imagine that like 10 mages in every war cry about the nerfs when they still outdamage everyone. but got it nothing that i write can be right cuz my english is bad. got it.
Have a good day and i hope u get far with ur crying.
Why defend something that isn’t balanced is what I don’t understand? You can claim there are work arounds all day but at the end of the day, when a melee comes across a mage with the same skill level, the melee will win EVERY single time simply because they do more damage even with less damage investment while having significantly higher HP and better heavy armor gear at level 60. Anyone who pays full price for this game has every right to complain as much as they want without needing to be bombarded by corporate apologists. I will continue to complain as much as I please as I have every right to do so. The mage balances where absolute gutter trash this patch and the developers should be aware of this every single day if that’s what it takes for them to gain the ability to listen to people who actually play their game (unlike them clearly).
im absolutly not defending AGS here. i simply state that u sometimes need to play with whats given, even if its unfair. yes im not saying that i outplay every melee everytime. but u dont ever have a melee attacking u with the same skill lvl as urself so u can relativly good outplay the most of them if u play it right. im jsut confused why everyone here is wasting their time crying in forum, where nothing will happen (sadly) if the ppl can change their way to play to get even or even an advantage out of it. but like i said. u do u, can just say that i hope for u that someone actually reads it and does something but i hardly doubt it.
Fair enough I respect your opinion and your stance on not complaining. Where I disagree is that I believe people should voice their frustrations no matter how unlikely a chance is they will change things. If a lot of people complain and AGS does nothing, it will put a stain on their reputation as being a transparent company and instead will forever be looked at as a company who couldn’t care less about giving their customers a voice and they will be punished with less sales in future content for this game as well new games they make moving forward. They still have plenty of time to redeem themselves however starting by fixing the weapon changes that clearly portray cognitive dissonance on the developer’s part.
i think we are already past that… AGS demonstrates with every porblem they have that they cant or want to be transparent with us players… but yeah in a normal world i would also totally agree with u, but i dont see it ANYWHERE here.
But lets wrap that up, we both stated our opinions, i also respect urs. I just wanted to share that sometimes it also can be a new game aspect to change ur view/build to be viable again.
Lets hope for the best in the future, so that they maybe here us/u and try to go for a real balancing game experience.
Its funny how GA/WH lovers as you first don´t undestand that WARS don´t Reflect the real balance in one weapon or class, cause is obviously because the AOE damage and Ice Storms spams that happens in war, of course Mages will be at top Damage.
Second: do you forgot that 90% of the players can´t or don´t are choosen to wars???
Did u see OPR??? If Devs do your job and simply check data will see that maybe almost 50% of the players are using GA/WH, at least.
Third: seems u like play whitout difficulty and to feel OP, If not, read some point of what i have stated… and post some consistent opinions about why they did not need to be nerfed… but based not on “OHHH MAGES ARE TOP DAMAGE AT WARS”… cause AOE spells… sorry but that argument is ridiculus if 5% of the server or something play wars, and Wars are not the core of this game
Highest damage in wars eh? In that case they’re probably on siege using the repeater. The firestaff is the absolute best weapon to use if you love seeing 20’s above the heads of a group of people. Lol, thats about it, thats all it’s good for, a bit of splash damage. And op is correct, it doesn’t crit, and it doesn’t do an damage, including the “buffed” pillar of fire. We’re basically throwing glitter at grizzly bears
