no, musket trapper tree is cool, but 100% unusable. Its not that they need to buff musket, but tune the trapper tree to be more viable in pve. All in all, almost every single other weapon outperforms musket for cleave/AOE/Single target damage.
its almost like devs sat down and had a meeting, bow is pve and musket is pvp.
is that your only reason?
reload x damage x target make musket a weak weapon in PvE
the only arguments I’ve seen so far are always the same “PvP, it’s easy to hit”
but I don’t see anyone hitting 100% of the shots with targets running, jumping, teleporting, rolling, improve arguments
and no one should hit 100% of shots, but it’s crazy easy to hit with musket compared to every other ranged weapon. No drop (which is ridiculous) and every other weapon has to lead their targets.
If you can’t kill a greataxe player you don’t deserve to be top 5 anything. All you have to do is press shift everytime they swing at you or use an ability and you will take even less damage than they do. Not to mention if you are in light armor and they are medium or heavy you can kite them literally forever untouched. Source: Main GA/WH for a long time, now trying musket because it’s a joke
Longe Story short:
Muskets sucks in PvE
Muskets are ruinning OPR in PvP… There is a post about this already…
Just delete Musket from the game…
This stupid weapon doesn´t fit in NW.
And I bet with you the weapon is gonna be non existent in 3v3s so what we gonna do about that though
great idea, and make NW more of a generic MMO
trash opinion, imagine being salty that people suggest that the solution to becoming better with an aim-based weapon is to aim better LMAO…
musket is not trash, and infact needs a heavy PVP nerf with damage dropoff and bullet drop. It is not balanced and has no counter when the opponent knows how to aim and focus targets
+1
or the guy you’re fighting against literally has no fingers, he barely tried to escape you and just stood in your grav well reloading his musket
LoL… this video…
I will never understand why there is a aim zoom hit scam weapon on a game that players use axes and swords…
It´s just so stupid… I don´t care if it´s historicaly accurate…
If you can see clearly on the video I forced him to use his stamina to 0 and inside the gravity - if you play musket you know that you cant reload cuz gravity bugs out the reload on musket for reasons - so me as a pro musket player use that knowledge to tear apart each and every musket player. His Fleche, Evade and riposte was already on cooldown so rapier was not an option.
this weapon is braindead. and everyone who plays it have no honor and no skill… the only thing you need is a big nerf or a delete
idk what game ur playing but 1 great axe left click takes away 1/3 of my health lmao. Oh and they also heal every time they crit or do ability. Oh and also this game’s audio cue is so quiet its arguably nonexistent lmao.
why dont u play it then. All these ppl crying about muskets basically have no game sense what so ever and dont know how to avoid being targeted.
I main mage with 50con light armor aswell and when i play mage, i have no problem with muskets, they’ll hit me prolly 2 times at best and im already gone lmao. You just need to time your dodge and make use of the corners, long story short “game sense”, or with other words just be good lol.
playing musket well takes more skills than most ppl think. You need to have good aim, good awareness, good gamesense and good positioning, and u need to have good mechanics with the rapier too, otherwise melees with light armor will just erase you. A good musket will 100% make an impact on the fight and thus its fun and rewarding. Thats why i mostly main musket (i only whip out mage build for war and for 1v1), musket rapier is one of the highest skilled class in the game. If you’re not good enough you just wont do well.
Sure you can just sit on a rock the whole match and be annoying and shoot ppl from accross the map but that way you’ll make little to no impact for your team. And those OPR with those 5man muskets who only shoot ppl accross the map normally end up in the loosing side, unless the team gap is huge. Because those 5man could have been playing other classes where they would be so much more useful than doing 5k damage every 10s each person (its very hard to do dps as musket who sit too far back)
It really doesn’t
you main musket bcs its totally easy and you looose with other weapons. Everyone who have exp in pvp based games would agree, that muskets are a joke. I have a different mentality, i cannot play things that are braindead bcs i dont feel any reward by killing someone without any challenge. This weapon should be banned, and the game would be better. still i hope they just rework it and balance it out.
Upload a video about you playing musket my guy. I want to see your mad skills.
Again a non-sense video that bitching about “Musket is OP and you need to learn how to play and reach to 625 gear score with best items” bla bla bla talks.
It is obvious that your friend’s ping ms is under 45 ms for 20v20 arena, there is zero lag or zero bullet delay or seeing enemy players afterward visual delays etc at all while this game high in game latency problems. and he plays probably in 720p with lowest settings too to remove the FPS drop problem in this game but I cannot enjoy playing with 720p in 2022 for a high pc requirement game - mmorpg… Your friend’s gear score is 607 but it looks like he has the “Infamy” legendary best musket weapon from 1:48 you can see it.
Your friend is mixed gear light armor - one medium rest is light armor but he gave lots of points to CONS stat, and he is using food etc buffs too.
All the opponents he shoots or kills are the LOW GEAR SCORES OR LIGHT ARMOR CLASS CANNON PLAYERS WITHOUT ANY CONS… How do I understand these? From the damage he is making against his opponents… Otherwise, you cannot give that much damage to a +150 or +200 or +300 cons opponents in medium and plate armors, and even to kill 100 cons light armor is not easy for 2-3 shoots; because CONS gives hp and defense passives. When players drink HP pots, buff pots or foods etc it is harder to kill. I look the opponents he kills, thy don’t give any fights but standing same location quite a long time too.
In my server, when someone vortex you as playing axe weapon, then you are instant dead as light armor glass cannot musket that you even don’t have time to re-act.
In addition to that, YOUR FRIEND doesn’t join to any major fights %99 of this video, only 1vs1 for targeting glass cannon low gear score players (otherwise you cannot give that much damage), even the players get killed who lies on the ground -thy are still waiting to get stand up and your friend is coming to last hit. In our server, when someone dies thy instantly click to “E” button to prevent opponent to do the last hit too but in this video I cannot see it at all lol, his opponents are begging him to give last hit really. So this server has many low gear score, newly, or noob pvp players that joins OPR…
Some players are saying that “x5 musket killed me as hitting or targeting me at the same time”, if x5 bullets hit you at the same time of course you die.
Majority of players know HOW TO PLAY their class and weapons, no worry; but musket is not OP as you people claim while other weapons are doing far better in DPS and having better active and passive skills from their trees for pvp and pve contents like mutations, OPR and fortress sieges.
In our server, fortress sieges, thy don’t prefer muskets - even to kill people on the walls, but thy prefer archers and mages to do that job; because bow, fire staff, ice gauntlets are doing better than musket.
Expeditions, noone wants musket as DPS so you need to have a separated weapon and armor and accessory sets to join expeditions and mutators…
Majority of players who comments still didn’t understand what kind of problems musket has for pvp and pve… instead thy are using words like “learn to play, get 625 gear score first, you nood, you don’t know how to play, no complain” bla bla insults.
Majority of players have +80 ms or +100 ms or +130 when there are +20 players in one place to do pvp or pve which affect your game play a lot. We know what happens at Shattered Mountain, how the game server is lagging, fps drops, latency increases, even you have a good internet and computer…
Musket is a FPS shooter game class which requires high FPS, low latency, under 60 ms for 100 people pvp like in Battlefield 1-5, Battlefront 2 etc games fps shooter games. And AGS provides the best servers with low latency ? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Go play or watch Archeage, Lineage 2, Aion, Guild Wars 2, ESO etc mmorpg’s mass pvp battles, then compare them New World so called mass pvp or normal pvp combat fights… These old games are doing better than New World as having better server, higher population and +200 players fights with no latency problems or server lags etc… I can share lots of videos about them or you can watch from youtube yourself.
AGS doesn’t provide these and except musket class to be played well, and AGS doesn’t fix any of the musket DPS problems too while thy said themself “Musket is the most less played weapon in pvp and pve, expeditions and everywhere, so we will buff it” but thy nerfed it more and more.
ONLY KILLING LOW GEARS OR GLASS CANNON BUILDS MAKES MUSKET OP? IT IS A BIG NOooooooo, WHAT ABOUT YOUR PERFORMANCE AGAINST %80 OF THE ENEMY TEAM PLAYERS TO FIGHT AGAINST WHILE OTHER WEAPONS ARE DOING EVERYTHING PERFECTLY COMPARING TO MUSKET IN PVP AND PVE…
Musket PvP is not only for OPR FFS while OPR has high latency, server lag problems unless you live close to Germany or Frankfurt City… Musket is doing shit in open world pvp while it is not exist anymore with the current state of the game. Open World mass pvp or pve, or expedition or mutator dungeons - musket is doing shit… Musket is doing shit it Fortress Sieges and you see a few musket players there if thy ever get it. Some of the musket active and passive skills are non-sense that are not doing nothing at all or being used at all for pvp and pve…
BLUNDERBUSS (Main stat is Strength for a fire armed weapon in real life) SHORT-MEDIUM or EVEN LONG via MORTAR RANGED weapon is coming for MELEE CLASSES or Tank classes to use it to give tons of damage instantly… Then you will see how it will be useless to play as musket in OPR, FORTRESS SIEGES and even at so called non-sense open world pvp.
SOME PPL SAYS THAT MUSKET IS NOT FITTING TO GAME BUT WE ARE GETTING BLUNDERBUSS FOR MELEE CLASS PLAYERS…
This game is full of p2w gold buyer, gold seller real life rich players with lots of BOTS, CHEATERS, exploiters, duplicator players… Servers are merged but all servers lost their half population again, and half of the server is full of bots, low gears or afk players or gold sellers, nothing more…
