100% agree lets just delete fire staff from game its not like it will make any difference with like maybe 5 people playing it on my server.
Please nerf Firestaff, i play it for some time and I know how broken OP it is.
Sometimes as FS mage I can even kill some melee player, it shouldn`t happen that FS user can kill someone, pls nerf it.

Yikes
i see that player everydayā¦

Ya nerf FS. We get overwhelming invites to mutations. We are so OP nerf us more because every groups goes ya, a FSā¦
This is 100% the reason that all weapons and gear should have split PVP/PVE functionality. It sucks being a PVE player with a weapon that has been nerfed into the ground because of PVP.

When people joke like this Iām always kinda scared that some may not see this as a joke :(((
AGS dont see this as joke but i dont care anymore. pvp in this game is dead.
Very nice work! As a fellow FS Mage (IG included), this was text book performance on how to survive as a mage while out skilling their opponent. 
Clutch 1v3!! really enjoyed watching that!
Clearly, the OP who made this post forgot how far long Firestaff Mages have come. After launch, we all knew how much of a joke Firestaff damage was until in February 2022 when the devās started to realize FS Mages need more love since melee reigned supreme for quite some time and in part, they still do to this day.
The players who have 20-30+ kills as a Mage including their combined team efforts in the above post w/ screen shot, were clearly against a team who were under performers, especially if their ābestā enemy player was 9-12. That says a lot about their gear and performance as a team.
And Iām sure youāre very versed in min/max gearing your mage, youāve got a pretty good handle on things.
For the rest of the players, they need to understand itās take time and effort to gear up their FS Mage to play like you (kiwdahc) and hone their skills as a FS Mage.
FS does not need a nerf, (And Iām sure you know this). I donāt know where players are getting this nerf mentality from. Clearly, these players still donāt see the dangers that Musket and Greatsword can inflict in OPR or Wars. For players that believe FS needs a nerf, you have not been playing as a FS Mage main for long. Understand that a fresh out of the box Level 60 FS Mage going into 3v3 or ORP with sub-par gear and little knowledge of your opponents are going to dust you easily. Improved build and gear will solidify your gameplay with skill and survivability.
At launch, remember when it was Level 30ās killing Level 60ās? (good times!) It was about āskillā not gear. You didnāt need great gear to out skill/perform a level 60 player. Now and days itās reversed. Better gear over skill will smash sub-par geared/skilled players.

Lol good one
Why do you say that? Because he missed attacks? Lol
Yea this is best part. PPl who have 0 understanding of game mechanics and 0 skill and didnt manage to make any single build work for them before now are very deadly in heavy armors running ss/gs xd
I know at least 4 players that did run arena bow/x, fs/x, bb/x, ga/x and many builds and each they were potato. But now i get super hard times to not die to them on arena.

sounds like someone ran in to a wow pvp streamer what makes firestaff look Op 
Thats the problem with having only Mutated expeditions as the only serious endgame PvE, something not everyone gets into, compared to what raids and solo instances will hopefully be, everyone and their dog flocks to PvP, encounter various issues with weapon balancing, complain on the forums, with some issues actually being legit, and AGS go ahead and base their weapon balancing around PvP in one form or another.
Nerfing the FS, bow, whatever it may be, into the ground in PvE since not enough people complain about that, considering this is a PvE game before anything else, then when raids and other serious endgame PvE content comes out, you watch how everyone will complain that they cant kill shit in these PvE endgame areas because all the weapons are just so ruined from balancing weapons around PvP.

Have your tried not getting hit by the easily dodgable fireball? Have you considered just being away from the player while they are shooting the flamethrower. You should have a 3 second window to attack if you avoid thos things. Fire mages like their burner spell to get away. Or close the gap. So avoiding that is a minor detail and when they like a tactic they stick with it. So find out if the player is a mid range or close range player and plan your defense accordingly.
its not needed to run away from Flamethrower. Just attack, even left click spam will be higher dmg than flamethrower.
This video is apt for you:
That or interupt their attack with the javolin its hilarious. They see it coming and phapoooon! Knocked on their asses. They get up and you then sweep their legs and stab them again.
