VG: scream on a 14second cd is too short for an ability YOU CANNOT ESCAPE AND HAVE TO PREDICT IN ORDER TO DODGE THERE IS NO CASTING ANIMATION YOU HAVE TO PREDICT IT AND IT IS A DEATH SENTENCE. increase scream cd.
IG: ice shower roots, applies 50% slow AND RENDS. NO ABILITY SHOULD DO ALL 3 OF THESE THINGS PLEASE NERF IT.
If you get hit by ice shower, you deserve to get all those debuffs. It’s got a looooooong CD, it’s got an obvious tell with the windup, it’s point blank with zero range. Learn how to bait out abilities instead of just charging in and blowing cooldowns.
why are they nerfing grav well? is it because of the rend it applies and the 50% slow and not being able to dodge afterwards and not being able to escape grav well with ANY ABILITY oh wait thats not grav well THATS ICE SHOWER. RIGHT LETS NERF GRAV WELL MAKES SENSE.
Shower shouldn’t last indefinitely while you’re in it, it should be a flat 1s root + 3s additional slow. If they made this change, it would be very good still but not as broken.
I think these forums are going to lead to so many nerfs that we might as well be playing with pool noodles. Learn how to counter shit. Learn how to avoid shit. Accept that some builds just counter yours. Get better at the game.
Ice spike is getting nerfed. Shower is fine. If you get caught in shower, you made a mistake and are rightly punished for it. That’s good design. Sorry.
I think IG is fine now after the spike changes. Riposte should have a bigger CD. The VG is tricky tho, I don’t think increasing the CD on scream will help since ur still gonna get spammed by it in big fights. Maybe they should change how roots work in general?
I am not saying nerf anything into the ground i am wondering why they are nerfing melee into the ground and BUFFING??? buffing mages.
it is obvious the devs dont play in wars competitively, melee DO NOT NEED NERFS. the idea melee are the overtuned ones is insane. nerfing melee further will only kill this game, many people will not farm gear for a new build. they will quit. wars will be 80% mages.
It really would be better to just have scream slow. I’d advocate to test for 70% first, but 50 would be fine. a very high slow would force dodge usage, which provides some level of long-term strategy by the vg, and provides the counter-options for other weapons.
