we have been actually. which is why mages and ranged are getting nerfed, because theyre doing way too much damage.
strange. stop trying to 1v1 a melee user in melee with your ig/fs combo. where are your melee users peeling for you? this is a team game not a duel simulator.
because all the M1 spammers got upset they couldnt gold W to win. they have to use their shift key as well. its how it is with most games instead of balancing to the high tier they balance to the outrage of low tier players who refuse to adapt
but they arent. GA hammer and hatchet do 40% more damage and have better CC mobility and auto lock. just saying
oh so now we are crying about the hatchet now too. theres a few vids posted today of mages kiting melee infinitely. maybe you should go watch them and take some notes (aka git gud)
stop trying to 1v1 people in a team game. are you dense or what.
Never seen GA/wh player that lost when combat started from 25+ m range.
I get that people are pissed off because the builds that they have spent gold and time on making, is getting nerfed.
But, im always curious if they are pissed after just having read the patch notes, or if they got into the PTR and actually got to play around with their build and saw it was nerfed to the ground in person so to speak.
then you are bad LOL
Maybe you are just playing spamming leftclick.
left click from 25 yards away? doesnt seem very effective, LOL
Dude, just dont respond to this guy, he is a troll that does this in pretty much every thread discussing balance.
devs get their data from the best content in the game. tentacle camping. and they found everyone is using firestaff. there goes your changes.
Hi. Fire staff main here. BETA TESTER of over 20 YEARS. Des
I assure you, FOR DPS what is META now on live, is FIRE and ICE.
As a TOP TEN Albion Online SHOTCALLER, I have to share with you that hammer/GA is only one piece of ZvZ. You cannot take only GA/hammers out with heals and expect to win. You need frontline, backline, etc.
Heavy armor is receiving an indirect nerf due to disintegrate effects from VOID. This nerfs all melee in wars/rush. They received buffs to less used abilities, not meta abilities. Healing is also receiving a nerf indirectly due to a VOID ability that reduces either healing received/output by 50%.
Current tuning on PTR is initial numbers, which will be adjusted and further tuned before being released. We are here to TEST and give input.
You did good coming here to discuss, but let’s keep it constructive.
They nerfed the meta on test server, which was well deserved. They are STILL tuning.
My fireball is instant cast, aoe, and leaves burn on the ground.
It’s inherently strong. I’m GLAD it doesn’t crit now, for fear that it would be nerfed in the future anyways. Only rapier can outburst me + fire has both knockback and mobility.
Between FIRE and ICE being META on live, many players are opting to use particular gems that provide elemental resistance to one or a combination of both. You may be getting countered by gems. Don’t roll cookiecutter and you won’t face this problem. Also, use ele convert gems to increase bypassing their resists.
TLDR;
PTR is not the next patch. It is to test tuning before adjusting values.
Meta is FIRE and ICE, IT SHOULD BE NERFED:
With the release of VOID, both have been inherently buffed as VOID is huge utility for FIRE and ICE builds as secondary and scales off INT. You also get damage buffs from VOID.
ARMOR MITIGATION + (MELEE) is nerfed indirectly and so is healing due to the addition of VOID guantlet debuffs.
hatchet ? hatchet is dead.
hatchet is alive as long as undying is around
damagevise it is dead.
Hatchet Nerfed? - #32 by ygtygt look at the last message of this thread. i post a video from an invasion today.
cool pve content go to pvp then come back
this is a pvp game not pve
what is that answer 
60 level tier 5 hatchet (935 damage stat) with + %8.9damage with light attack bonus is dealing 375 damage and that guy is telling me that game is about pvp, what is that :D:D i’m not talking about what is that game about, i’m talking about hatchet’s damage
lol someone is in a small company on a dead server. come back once you actually do pvp like the game is balanced towards. silly casual
u are trying to ignore the real thing here i’m talking about. i’m talking about hatchet’s damage and u are telling me go to pvp. i dont care other weapons’ damage. i’m talking about hatchet here. i dont care other weapons or pvp weapon balance. i dont care pvp for now.
flagged as u deserved.
