Sorry if this is a bit off topic but its completely the same with Tanks. Just putting us down consistently. The balancing in this game makes no sense whatsoever.

Mages might have minimal bis gear to grind for from dungeons but also has 2 of the most overpowered weapons currently in the game due to inherent mechanics of the weapons / perks.
Why else would you see TANKS and BRUISERS using MAGE weapons? Wake up.
this isnt saying BB, or GA or melee arent overtuned, but they arent gamebreaking the way VG/IG are in the current meta.
Are you kidding? BIS tempest helmet, BIS amulet and ring from laz/gen, BIS BIS war hammer on tempest and more. And so many near BIS. Mages dont even have 1.
One m10 is nearly enough to max the weapon out, and you get copious amounts of blackguards weapons if you use any form of luck.
I do feel like the perk change wasnt great, but the exaggeration is insane lol
where damage is useless damage and means nothing.
i do 25% damage to all players, they are under infinite healing effects, i kill none but i end up on top leaderboard, means nothing! few mages are used in wars just because of ice shower in combo with gravity, that’s it, remove that, and mages are USELESS.

Are you serious mate?
The doomwalker pieces are literally made for GA. (Reap + GW perks.
The medium set with STR can be combined with it and you get perks for all the cool stuff.
You can double up tankiness with Neishatum’s set or Conqueror set.

Idk FS outclasses bow in nearly every aspect right now. My friend plays FS IG and gets top 5 every game with 10+ kills and almost all always no deaths. He can do it on light and medium. I literally have no chance in 1v1 as he has a faster fire rate, bigger hitbox, doesnt require an aim animation, doesnt have .33 root after shot etc.
And muskets are few and far between. So i’ve viewed FS as the best all around range for awhile now. Plus IG has been insanely overpowered for months to pair with your build.
But relative to mage, GA and healers are better.
So idk the problem? Try some dex or bow and let me know what you think. Bow, rapier, spear all turd right now. Melee can just grit through half your abilities on spear.
nerf mages harder. need a -25% damage to every class honestly. mage users can smack their heads on keyboards and drop 40 kills in an opr. please
Yeah we’re in a real good spot being one-shotted by BBs and 10k grav wells LOL.

No, that’s GA apes you’re describing LOL. 3x cast + crit + heal STILL not enough for you to win?
So it seems to me heavy healers will be killable and medium healers also are easier to kill on PTR notes.
Light healers with a stamina Nerf should be catchable, no?
Think of all that AoE damage mages put down And all those damage numbers being slapped down after the 5 man healer killer squad kills their main healer or even 2 or 3 of them.
I can hear the war comms now, “healers dead, mages throw it down.”
Everyone on point melts and GA is no longer bitched about because you can now I Frame every GWell as long as you don’t spam dodge.
The imbalance of gear drops is 100% true. I really do think more item sets should be Con rather than strength. You know, like the raiders set. Lol

No, you are confusing mages with GA/WH and Muskrats. Those are the ones on the top charts of OPRs.

Perhaps because something like healing entomb, which gives 10% health back, is not that great for squishy low con mage but is great for a tanky high con bruiser who might live long enough to pop another potion with an additional 10% health?
Perhaps because ice storm is not enough to kill other players on its own but is used to slow players down enough for the OP grav well and melee damage to take effect?
I know you don’t want your OP GA nerfed but the game is not going to survive much longer if AGS can’t see through obvious BS like this.

Copious amounts of Blackguard weapons that are useless to mages thanks to the nerf.
I spent 37 hours grinding Tempest to get all 3 mage weapons. Not sure how it’s “copious exaggeration” to expect to be able to use the weapons that I earned doing that exactly as they were when I earned them.
Don’t worry, the devs won’t listen to anyone other than GA users. They’ve shown that time and again, which is one of the reasons why their game is dying.

Yeah… I do think when they do changes like this they shouldn’t announce it ahead of time and make it, “further instances of this item.”
If you didn’t get it, you didn’t get it. If you got it, good for you for playing during this time, here’s your reward. Lol

They can make drops like this but only if they add system to the game that allows to change attribute on item.
I’m not participating in this fight. I simply had a question concerning healing gear.
Isn’t there a drop or two for healers that come from the tentacles in Eternal Pools?
Nah, while there are a few focus-based, no one really uses them because they dont have ideal perks for healers. The one you’re likely thinking of is Silver Leaf. It has 2 mana perks and sacred which is not good. People used to farm it to boost their ring GS and use it until they got better gear. Same with a lifestaff that used to drop in that area too iirc. Far from bis, and not even a 2-perker for healers.
we werent fighting so no worries
