The movement on the attack animation of GA is larger than light armor dodge kek

It’s meta because the game likes to stack people on one spot. Of course in that case people will use a wide swinging aoe weapon lol

Thats not the main reason though. It has the lowest skill floor in terms of weapons because of how much cc and grab it has compared to any other weapon. Along with warhammer its basically impossible to not be stunned or slowed by these users. I switched to try them out and it was easy and boring to play.
There is a lot that needs to be fixed before we can fully understand what needs a nerf and what doesnt.

Based on your concept: My musket should oneshot even heavy armor players… Musked is designed to penetrate heavy armor. Learn to dodge.

In this game, if you don’t use greataxe or lifestaff then you will be a loser.
At a point only ga and ls players will keep playing every other weapon user will quit. 
Iam so tilted. Waiting for a balance patch, but only new bugs and exploits are arriving.

in fact heres a good all around mmo PVPer- mosty of WoW warrior fame
Baheerha in a War today and hes hitting for 500 to 1500ish
I dont agree with his comment but saying to learn to dodge in a 20 v 20 just doesnt work. Its like 10v10 at any one time you can’t dodge every single attack while killing people it just doesnt work.
The problem with your comment is as a 335 int fire staff light armor user, my max CRIT with a HEAVY ATTACK on these heavy armor mongoloids is about 650, they have like 12,000 health and atleast 3 people healing them, also in heavy armor, so im also critting them for 650 with a slow heavy attack. If you go dex its even worse. PvP is just unplayable right now unless you go heavy armor mongoloid
It doesn’t need to be nerfed… The Bug needs to be fixed! Period!
Idk at this point, why argue on opness of GA? Best cc in the game, good mobility, good cleave domage, best melee range/way easier to hit than rapier or spear, fit well with heavy armor. 70% of GA user in every War/Outpost. I guess ppl sayin it’s not op are delusional GA users xd

You can’t really dodge it consistently especially with this lag lately. GA is too tanky, does to much damage, to fast, has op cc. Lowest skill cap weapon in the game. You just stun, left click, left click repeat. You don’t have to aim the attacks because of the insane tracking and wide hitbox. Everything about it is broken. A good GA player will beat any other melee build every time. Only thing that kind of counters it is fire staff ice gauntlet but ice shower and storm are bugged so…welcome to this cancerous meta.
Herd all nerfs towards greataxe. I wanna see a shepherd herding nerfs in the direction of greataxe soon.
You cannot dodge great axe, they will just pull you in place then whack you, they can even cancel a flesche… I am not even sure how a heavy armor with great axe can run as fast as a light armor, and swing axe like its a hatchet… but yeah fix first resilience bug and let’s see what will happen after that
True, resilience bug also plays a big role in this build so we have to see what happens if they take normal damage after resilience fix.
" Learn to dodge " was wrong to write. I apologize for that. Open World 1v1 you should be able to dodge those big attack though. Execute skill has a slow animation but if you don’t dodge it then it will hit for upwards of 5k+. It’s a skill which has a long cooldown. If you’re eye to eye within 15 meters then Bloodlust is on. All the weapons have their own perks and I feel they all need to do more damage for PVP like the GA. Players need to be able to kill players without them being able to absorb as mush as they are currently.
the problem is when someone uses the greataxe that is actually good at the game then they can track you with their mouse to have full uptime on the speed buff, and then rotate left click left click dodge so that every swing is a giant gap closer. They wont run out of stamina doing this, but you will run out of stamina trying to dodge them. They can outrun light armor take more damage than them and deal more damage than them
