Yeah anybody who is saying that heavy + lifestaff isn’t OP is trolling.
I literally just played an outpost and one dude was 1 V 10 same as in this video and wasn’t losing a single hp. He solo tanked our entire team and pushed us all the way to our respawn.
im unsure what void bent does, but zero people on my server Savoya have it. Im in faction armor heavy and 100% cannot take 10 people at once.
Since when cc was a thing in this game? Very few weapons can cc. I am a spear user but , knocking down and ccing people isn’t easy. Maybe that’s why people keep spamming hammer.
Regardless, if you can 1 vs 7 or even 1 vs 10 as an armored healer, then you are clearly OP. If you don’t believe it is OP you are simply denying the truth right in front of your face. So it would be simply a waste of time discussing this issue with people like you. It shouldn’t take no more than 3 or 4 serious dpsers to take down a healer. Even if the group missed the chance to CC the healer, healer isn’t supposed to so be so tanky in the first place. Any more than that, the game is broken. Remember how expedition groups can only have 5 members per group? Above all, the fact that dedicated damage dealers are dealing less than 1k damage per hit to a guy with more than 10k hp is an undeniable proof that heavy armor is in need of a serious nerf.
exactly. All my stats and items are put into dealing damage, and when i crit on a heavy armor enemy, i deal roughly 1k when they don’t dodge, and then a healer comes along and gives him a HoT for 700 hp per second… Oh, and the tank also deals more damage to me than I do to him.
Thanks for confirming you’re just a trash player who falls on cheese specs to even slightly compete. Just remember eventually it’ll be nerfed and you’ll be useless as you have 0 skill to fall back on.
Also like your entire statement on Rapier is a huge OOOF and shows you off as clueless which helps my case so I’m fine with that.
What? Literally half your comment doesn’t make sense. Facetanking a 10v1 
? You sure aren’t the smartest cookie in the jar kiddo
Never in a single universe will this happen. Ill paypall you 1k if you find a pvp player thats has over hunders of hours in pvp to play against the so called noob in heavy armor and ls. Be my guest.
Hahaha how dear you play what you like. People just need to run spear hammer to 1v10 then its gg. Its so easy hahaha. I can’t believe people would want to play other weapons to try and beat mine. I’m just so good hahaha
Lifestaff heavy armor is tanky yea, but it’s not going to kill anyone with a brain. It’s literally useless on it’s own other than being a distraction for bad players who want to try and focus it. All you need is one single person to CC them while you kill the rest of their team. They are slow as hell. They aren’t dodging any CC and their abilities all have an interruptible cast time. People just need to realize that tanks should be focusing the healers with their 10 billion CC skills, not the dps. If they are focused on dodging CC and/or keeping themselves alive, they aren’t healing their team mates! It doesn’t matter if you can’t kill the healer if they end up being the last one alive in the middle of 10 enemies, you’re still wining that fight.
It’s hilarious watching these clips where people just sit in the healers sacred ground, make no effort whatsoever to CC chain, no effort whatsoever to drag them out of the circle, no effort whatsoever to save CDs to burst them as they try to cast sacred ground. It’s just a bunch of monkeys playing in the only possible way that would allow the opponent to survive and complaining that they are losing. Just use your brain

How much damage does the healer do vs for example a ice gauntlet to heavy armor. From my own testing my int build with no buffs (421 intelligence) does around 600 damage to a full heavy player (yes i know resilience perk is busted). The healer can do similar damage themself which is the hilarious part about players in heavy armor.
That is no where near balanced where the mage or archer output the same damage on average and cant survive as long themself due to being in light or medium armor. Not to mention all the abilities that give “heavy” players mobility. Its a super soldier class in outpost rush and sieges. Everyones switched from mages / archers on my own server because you can not compete otherwise.
Its easy enough to balance, rather than a flat -20% damage reduction each piece of heavy armor you get -10% damage reduction. If you want to run full heavy thats your choice knowing you wont do any damage what so ever. Same would apply to healing output, the more heavy armor worn the less heal your doing.
everyone complaining about not being able to 1v1 a healer. They do no damage, they can’t 1v1 you either unless you literally stand in their sacred ground with them and let them wail on you with their second weapon.

I’m sorry, but healers do not deal nearly as much damage on average as any other weapon in the game. Ice gaunglet has the weakest basic attack in the game apart from the lifestaff, and it sounds like you aren’t even using the chill mechanic which is where literally all of the ice gaunglets damage comes from. Lifestaff has 1 way to damage - it’s shitty, predictable, slow basic attack (oh and beam if you even count that) - whereas every other weapon has 3 full abilities that do damage plus a shit ton of perks that enhance their damage.
That’s not the lifestaff doing comparable damage to the ice gaunglet. That’s you comparing one weapon at it’s peak DPS to one at it’s lowest DPS.
Mate then you suck at the game. People are telling what is happening. They even shared multiple videos of it. There are clearly many players suffering from this. There is also videos of players executing this. Despite all the hard evidence, assuming you are doing it right and you die, and the other people who uses similar builds do not die cause the people they fight sucks at the game is simply ignorant at best.
The logic dictates,
Broadly speaking, if there is someone doing something, that something is doable. The fact that you cannot do it yourself doesn’t mean anything.
What we see in the videos is not OK nor is it acceptable. 1 person should not be able to hold against 10 players even when the opponent only uses auto attacks which by the way is at least 1000% weapon damage. There is clearly something broken here. And it is not only 1 thing. Those players receive less damage than they should normally receive AND heal more than they should be able to heal. When those two things couple the result is 1v10. By the way, ridiculous healing amounts has been a long time issue. This is not new either.
If your logic is “it has to be over-tuned otherwise there will be no healers”
I’d rather not have a healer and not clear some of the content in the game than have healers ruin all of my game. At least this way I’ll have some form of game to play.
Also, there are healers because they enjoy healing. We need those. People are playing healers despite they despise healing. Similarly, people are playing tanks despite they despise tanking. It is that over-tuned right now.
Edit: However, there are multiple bugs right now and we should see how things work out after the fixes. Balance should be the secondary subject here as there is no way to see the actual balance with all these game breaking bugs.
Healer in heavy armor deal me 1k-1.1k damage. With 580 fire staff i deal him 600 with normal attack. He can heal all his HP and kill me easily, because i don’t have that much HP and regen and wear light armor.All other weapons is useless, all running heavy + life staff/hatchet or great axe.
If you not seeing what wrong here, you just like to not die vs 10 people and will cry after they fix heavy and healing.

That doesn’t work either, because high tier amber gems are broken. We are limited to wailing on them with the life staff, which happens to have the lowest base damage in the game lol.

I really do not understand why we are discussing balance in a game that damage modifiers and resistance are not working properly, and worst, in many cases damage are not applied at all because of bugs or exploits.

Let me share some numbers with you.
580 FS (Prime Resolve) base damage: 231
580 LS (Glimmering Mercy) base damage: 211
INT bonuses to damage: 10% to light and heave attacks @ 50, 10% crit damage @ 100, 15% elemental damage @ 150, 30% duration of DoTs @ 250, 10% damage against full health target @ 300.
FOC bonuses to damage: none whatsoever
Oh, and healers normally socket diamond (heal increase) into their LS, while DPS are supposed to put some damage increase gem into their weapon.
Now please tell us how in the world does healer manage to hit you for more damage than you’re doing to them, assuming that everything else is equal?

It’s not equal. You blind and don’t see videos on top?Healer in heavy receiving 300-600 damage depends on enemy weapons and he can hit enemies with way more damage.
I get it mate, you enjoy playing your heavy armour+life staff build while dedicating a 1% of your mental capabilities to it and still beat every 1v1 you encounter. I get it. But if you come to the forums at least give it more than that 1% of your brain you normally use… I never said 100 hours, I said 100 duels, also, of course that won’t happen, all dps know we can not beat heavy armour+life staff ALONE, there is no counterplay, and you can not outdamage their heals no matter how many stuns you use. My point is that having a class that can not be defeated in a 1v1 is simply bad game design.

Why don’t you use your eyes and brain? You can see the evidence right in front of you yet still deny it. Your brain must be offline.
Healers are not meant to be killed in 1 vs 1. But you are not supposed to 1 vs 7 or even 1 vs 10 either. And what CCs are you even talking about? CCs are rare and can buy you less than 2 seconds window of uninterrupted attacks. People cried about stagger and they took it away. You can easily negate CCs by holding your weapon in the air like an idiot and simply block. What knockdowns? People get back up right away.
Everyone! Please ditch your weapons and run warhammer exclusively just so you can hopefully CC heavy armor abusing healers! What a f**king joke.
He’s just a troll. Ignore him. Move along.
