eh nah solo lifestaff is pretty bad now, i can always kill them 1v1. dueling outside WW isn’t a good example of what the game should feel like.
Are they switching weapons or using pots? Yeah, the ground is flat out there. Around half of the open world pvp involves hills and rocks. Also, the goal of duels is to beat each other not stall till the other player leaves.
yes. if they don’t I can still pressure them enough through their heals
no, i’m talking about the lag outside cities.
and i’ve even dueled against lifestaff without potting in 50 con light armor and have won before. I can kill lifestaffers out in the world easy with food+pots if they’re solo.
apparently he thinks that every lifestaff drops with blessed,fortifying sacred ground, etc.
Yeah, this guy just used the life staff used pots and spammed ranged attacks only after dodge spamming. This was also on a hill, so clear out did not work most of the time. He did not switch to his other weapon. Issue is not me being killed, but him being unkillable if he is only on defense.
yeah the only thing that can pressure healers enough right now I think is the rapier. it’s kinda lame. any other weapon goodluck. Have you tried trenchant strikes/crit perk or w/e?
any melee weapon + relevant perk and VG + relevant perk can easily pressure them.
You can force blessed and do not need the other perks on your weapon. The other perks can be on armors also.
thank you for correcting me then
Youre either going to wise up and throw an antiheal on yourself somewhere or you wont. That is your solution lol. I’m now only here to respond to other people because this might be my favorite thread now.
The fact that 1 perk means that you win 100% of 1v1’s with healers should tell you that the game is unbalanced in an entirely different direction then you think but somehow I don’t believe that you will agree on that one.
Its really good man! they cut putrifying screams antiheal in half and gave all melee weapons the potential to have to old putrifying scream antiheal. its wild.
yeah i bet. I personally don’t need it with rapier cause there hasn’t been a case where I can’t just burn them down with evade post lifestaff nerf lol. And I don’t really care enough about solo lifestaffers. it’s w/e. If it’s a group fight, if the healer gets focused in heavy he’s going to die.
yeah rapier is insane!
I am glad you keep boot licking AGS’s healing copout. I am sure everyone is going to waste a weapon perk because solo life staff players. This is totally going to fix healing.
healing isn’t even that strong in pvp anymore nothing compared to what it used to be lol
Duels in WW is not comparable to how the open world pvp plays out. Flat terrain allows most of the melee skills work. No stacking healing and regeneration pots. Its a different game. If the guy switched out of life staff, it would have been over in a reasonable amount of time instead of time wasting harassment. You probably should try playing the rest of the game instead sitting in WW doing nothing.
I literally just said this.
And I stopped dueling in WW, not because of the terrain, but cause it’s laggy 24/7 and every fight is rng due to latency and weapon swap bugs. Not sure why you’re telling me to stop dueling in WW when I have over 5k solo kills in solo wpvp.
I only brought up dueling cause lifestaffs aren’t unkillable, and if they’re lagging then I just assumed you were dueling in cities lul. I agree that if the game is lagging then you can’t pressure them enough for it to matter.
This fight was in top left MD at the starmetal ore which was 1.5-2 coins each. Its hard to tell if its the server taking a dump or I’m playing vs euros. Wars also lag the server. I am not sure if you actually played vs a full focus tank, but this guy was like a .5 seconds behind and doing 6k heals.
Also, the focus scaling is/was broken and applies twice. The sweaty people know this and have 300+ focus abusing the shit out of it. Not sure if last patch fixed it but probably not. Just trash balancing all around.
So you get to choose how pvp should be? how a healer should eventually die if u hit it long enough with your greataxe?
I actually agree with you tho, on the healers being RLLY strong, 1 of my friends is lifestaff/VG and unkillable legit, on top of that he has lifesteal on VG , disables YOUR healing with VG or takes away anything u have, and THAT is disgustingly strong, what you ran into is a puppy compared xD. but i understand the frustration.
Maybe play Greataxe / VG just for the heal disables 
PVP is about killing each other not stalling till the other guy leaves. If I die its fine, but this was literally just stalling out the fight till I leave. No weapon swaps. Just dodge, insta heal, pots, and circle.
GA is pretty ass right now. Its just for setting up grav wells and sustain, so it would be WH/VG. But why should I have to take VG when there are 4 str main weapons? I should not have to switch out of str just because mono life staff is so strong?
