New Weapon Perk Change

Just want to make sure I have this correct.

Your arguing that life stealing is OP?

And that a 2 perk bow is OP? (Refreshing is not a weapon perk…)

Or is it just the perk buckets that makes you think it is OP? Would you be happy if AGS made you a ThwartingCounter/TrenchantRecovery/Enchanted Great axe to make it fair?

Also an enchanted/Attunement/Proc musket is going to be 100% better than Infamy next path

Don’t try to create perception. Lifestealing, Ref move, Vicious these perks are extremely OP on the Void gauntlet

You still insist on not understanding the point I’m talking about here. if tiger’s 2 is being nerfed because of dmgcon, all the guns i said should be nerfed…

because this is discrimination

Dude, you’re still talking nonsense.
If AGS is adding a weapon to the game and players are working hard to get it, you cannot nerf it. if you are nerfing this weapon just because it has 2 dmgcons, you have to nerf all the other 2 dmgcon,proc weapons as well, or even easier you shouldn’t add such weapons to the game at all.

it’s none of my business the topic here is Named items

Seems like some of you don’t craft your items. Replacing two wardrobe items could cost you a couple mil to purchase or even craft that perfect BIS. I guess maybe you could be one that buys gold so maybe also why you don’t care or think it’s not a big deal. Let’s also remember that if the PTR settings hold true, we will also have another huge weapon balance issue.

Ah a Tigers instinct enjoyer. Sry they nerfing your weapon but that hatchet was incredibly OP. 46% more damage to Light/Heavy attacks AND abilities (without effecting empower cap) while also applying what will be a 70% weapon damage DOT?

Ya I don’t feel bad about that nerf.

meta changes are fine

hmm if you’re into the abilities. so let’s talk a little bit about Lazarus Bow
keen,vicious,enchant %22 more damage 625gs
every dodge +%20 damage buff 5s…
Deal +10% more damage to foes suffering from a debuff.
Deal +15% more damage to foes at least 10m away.
Deal +20% more damage to targets below 50% health.
Deal +20% extra damage to any foe as long as you have not damaged them in the last 10s.
Deal +15% more damage to foes at least 10m away.
When you land a headshot, deal +20% more damage and have a 50% chance to get your arrow back.
Heavy attack arrows fly faster and deal +10% more damage.

total %152 more damage…
Posion DOT 12% weapon damage per second for 20 seconds…

yes lazarus bow is really weak at all.

I really admire your logic.

Sir their are three MAJOR flaws with you logic that are simply Ignoring game mechanics.

1.) Vicious and Enchanted do NOT stack. One boosts crits, one boosts non-crit basic attacks. You attacks will never be boosted by BOTH perks. Which is not the case for Rogue and Vicious which can both be Proc’d simulations VERY easily.

2.) MANY of those bow passives you listed are Empowers. Which are capped at 50%…. Bow near constantly has a 40% empower, which means you only leave 10% room for additional empowers.

3.) As I’ve stated multiple times, The Laz Bow is and has been bugged since launch. The Vicious perk does not work. You are crying about an Enchanted/Keen bow….

Could this be a problem unique to you? :thinking: :thinking: :thinking: :thinking: :thinking:

It’s 2 perks out of 30 perks it’s not that big of a deal. Although I will say that right now these weapon perks seem to be OverPowered af. There will definitely be some weapon perks that will be a requirement in some builds. Here are the craziest ones that you can’t go without imo.

Note - The third number represents the percentage while equipped on the weapon. Also, Some perks do not list the prerequisites like “On Death” or “Under 50%” health but they are still there.

  • Repulsing Clearout: now has increased effectiveness (50…146…209%) while on a hammer.
  • Empowering Shooter Stance: now has an increased effectiveness (4…23…41%) while on a musket.
  • Crippling Powder Burn: now has an increased effectiveness (5…24…42%) while on a musket.
  • Penetrating Rapid Fire: now effects all rapid fire attacks and the armor penetration is increased while on a bow 5…19…33%
  • Sundering Riposte: now has increased rend while on a rapier 5…15…24%.
  • Refreshing Pillar of Fire: now has increased cooldown 3…14…25% while on a firestaff.
  • Refreshing Charge: If Unpredictable Strike hits it recharges 5…30…54% charge faster.
  • Crippling Reap: increased slow speed 5…31…50% while on a great axe. Also the duration increased from 2s to 4s.
  • Healing Tomb: Now heals for 5…18…30% of base health when Entomb ends.
  • Iced Refresh: has increased cooldown 20…77…100% while on an ice gauntlet.
  • Enfeebling Skewer: Increased the effectiveness of the weakness to 3…24…44%.
  • Fortifying Perforate: increased fortify 2…9.6…17% while on a spear.
  • Putrefying Scream: increased healing effectiveness 10…29…40% while on a void gauntlet also now lasts 8s instead of 10s.
  • Voracious Blade: increased healing effectiveness 10…31…51% while on a void gauntlet.

Oh yeah some of these will be tooooo good not to have but so much choice and you can only pick 1 for each weapon. It’s going to be a fun change.

Now try it with Pen shot.

Also you just gonna ignore the multitude of errors I pointed out in your argument? Bet.

dude you said vicious and enchanted not stack. I shared a video of you stacking it. Instead of saying yes and accepting it, you shamelessly said “Try it with PEN Shot”…

The reason I didn’t want to answer your 2nd argument was because it was a complete fabrication. Well then, you’re so insistent on being a disgrace, I won’t offend you.
let’s watch

Normal damage 2512 Witout any buffs
The reason I use the Infected Throw skill in Hatchet is to create a debuff on the target.
In this way, I activated the MARK skill.

I activated all the buffs and the result is 6307 damage. 150% increase…

Do you so much love BoW enough to humiliate yourself?
Your lies… your bullshit…

ok ok AGS this kid is so upset please buff BoW, make Bow one shot Build pls

I can’t waste any more time with you my friend good luck in life

dude, you forgot Empowering Fireball
Empowering Fireball: now has increased damage 5…32…58% while on a firestaff.

LMAO imagine not understanding how empowers work.

You didn’t factor in honing stones, Oblivion’s, 15% battle bread, Warhorns, gems, outpost buffs, Baron, thrust Dmg on rings, the dex boost from the attribute tree.

Do you really think because you hit high damage numbers on a fricking training dummy that it is comparable to actually combat? I can hit 11k on a training dummy using WarHammer (with buffs), does that mean it’s the most OP weapon?

All bow EMPOWERS (do you understand what’s and empower and what’s not) are essentially negated in War/OPR.

I don’t even f*cking use bow. Only reason I’m arguing this is because your delusional because AGS took away your OP toy.

PS, only reason you hate bows is because you run around with 50 con trying to oneshot people with a cringe cheesey build.

I have 150 days of accumulated in play time. In all mmos the meta changes constantly. When you start playing an mmo you also sign up for the endless grinds lol

and that’s the issue, tweaking your build occasionally is one thing. losing 1m worth of gear is another. lol.

*opr meta

Enchanted boosts basic attacks (light & heavy). Works as intended not boosting pen shot

how many hours you have in this game is irrevelant… we are not measuring d…ks here
they must chage stuff its a neccesity
why ?
because otherwise it will be boring…
for example if we all had bis gear everyone has everything with max value everyone is same…
what happens then ? ppl will get bored. because they wont be able to be superior to other ppl…

ppl who complain abaout changes are basicaly crying because they will lose their superiority…
yes they have right to complain because they spent time on their stuff to get there…

BUT

im not playing this game because i want to satisfy my ego… you shouldnt either !!
im playing this game to have fun… spent time with ppl… talk bullsh.t with random ppl…
i have been playing this game since launch i never had bis gear, never tried to have one. all my items are named itmes.
and i never had any problem so far. im doing all the stuff i enjoy…

so what i will do after the new update ? i will chose nice weapons from my named item rack and upgrade them to use ^^ thats all
my suggestion to you do the same
GL

Dont overpay for gear like an idiot? I never spent more than 100k on single item and im fine. You ppl forget that in games meta does shift, game does change and what was one day bis can be easly crap next day. So dont invest gold you cant afford to invest into items. Simple as that.

Not want to sound harsh but maybe this thread is a good “lessons learnt”.

If it is just about being geared best in class and you do not enjoy the time getting there, then don’t do it.

This applies to New World and every other Game. Meaning if you leave New World going over to whatever Game, then the same will hold true.

Everything is virtual and temporary, perks are changing, new weapons, armor, … get introduced, Meta is changing constantly. And in the end (whenever it is) servers are shut down and everything you belief you owned or gained is lost.

But usually players itself have lost interest long before and have left, leaving their hard earned progress/gear willingly behind.
