I think its 4 seconds slowed but thats pretty buggy. Idk if some people have freedom and thats why they are less slowed. But yeah I know that.
iirc freedom works, but good luck getting one. With the RNG craft it’s getting ridiculous lol
Not that expensive in TP with resil on it. But I rather attack perk + resil.
depending on server its like 1k to 5k a piece for a purple. good luck getting the weight class, the attribute, the pvp perk and the weapon perk to match though.
yeah but the bis would be your chosen perk + resil + freedom. RNG for that is insane if you don’t have the money for it.
honest question. yal consider res better or physical/elemental aversion better?
Yeah but thats so rare that it doesnt get sold. If someone gets something like this he will sell it to his company. If someone would sell this with a meta perk it would probably go for 500k.
doesn’t those things only apply to standard attacks? Not skills? I’m not really sure on what they provide but if they do provide resistance to all phys or elem dmg then it’ll be better than resil
Oh wait you are right. it is on “standard” attacks.
in the current iteration of ability spamming that might not be as good as i though F.
back to the drawing board 
skip to like 3:04
I really dislike using meta weapons since I enjoy SnS alot but it feels like without them you’re pretty much fucked…
This.
If you dont play meta u are always weaker.
For example October it was heavy healer.
Thats why we have meta u know 
Technically you’re both right and wrong
You can leaping strike (or any movement ability) out of an ice shower, but only after the root portion of frostbite has expired (1s)
The Heavy Slow portion of Frostbite, doesn’t start to countdown until you leave an Ice Shower (can’t sprint or dodge). Which is 3s total. But it can be 10seconds if you’re stuck inside an Ice Shower (Ice shower lasts 7s, + 3s slow on exit). That’s a long time of no dodges or sprinting while slow walking!
Basically, trade a movement skill cooldown for the duration of Ice Shower’s Frostbite debuff.
But…
Doesn’t change the fact random ice showers in large engagements are often not fun to fight in as a melee. Hopefully the fix to cleansing potions inside wars helps this issue. We should add cleansing potions to OPR
This so much this.
Too many contention points require large amounts of players to congregate.
Spread the fighting out into smaller batches over OPR/War/etc.
E.g. in OPR
We own Luna and Sol, baron isn’t up. Ok everyone blobs onto the only other objective . Same can be said for wars
I may not be able to dodge or run, but that’s why I’ve got shield bash (for stuns), vault kick(for stun or repositioning, skewer for repositioning.
Yes, Random cc sucks and I am squishy which is why In large engagements I’m rarely ever in the thick of it. I opt to go for the backline healers, mages, and other squishier targets, although I can take heavy targets as well.
Cleansing pots in opr would be awesome
Ice rain is absolutely broken … for melees it feels like an 5 second full stun. FIVE !!! Gravity Well and scream get nerfed, but the big meta ice rain not? @AGS You definitly have to look at this spell for balancing reason.
See GA or WH: You get stuck in ice wall… you can’t move, can’t dodge, can’t block ranged dmg (except ice spike). What you can do is to die. As a melee in wars, a freezing rain is your certain death unless the opponents are abysmal. And believe me, there are dozens of ice rains.
Yeah echoing this
IG isn’t broken
Ice shower is broken
Going back to doing daily gypsum and calling it quits for the day. Not going to wait to the end of the month for devs to get their shit together and fix things -OR- make it even worse.
It is funny to see so many IG users crying here that this shit is not op. IT IS. IG is broken af from launch. Its also funny that so many people play with it - but i guess if youre bad at the game you need any advantage you can get right ? Effin loosers.
As for the author of the post - Freedom perk doesnt work against ROOT. it is STUN, SLOW and SILENCE only. Also i think there was already a lot of info about that the the perk doesnt stack or isnt working properly when stacked - which means if you have more than 1 piece with it - you might change it as well.
And in the end its 8% only - so if someone apply a SLOW on you for 3 seconds - thats 180 milliseconds - and if you apply Freedom on top of that - it will cut down the time youre being slowed by 14,4 milliseconds!!! 14 effin MILLISECONDS!!!
The lack of defence against CC in this game is staggering. Also the amount of OP range weapons … they should nerf all of that to the ground. Imagine having a distance advantage, power advantage, and positioning advantage. F*** this shit. People should be afraind of a strong good melee build in this game - and all i hear when im charging at people is laughter. And then all i hear is CC sound effect, CC sound effect, CC sound effect … and then i watch the YOU DIED screen. Balance in this game is a joke … people cry that they cant 1 tap headshot people with muskets …
ITS A F******* RPG GAME! Deal with it. You shouldnt be able to just burst through peoples health bars. If you want 1 tap people go play some garbage COD, Fortcrap or any other garbage game for kids. Im done.
So I tried this in OPR, and it works fine with Ice shower but with grav well you always either get pulled back in (rubber-banded) or you don’t move at all. Also sometimes happens in Ice showers.
Grav well is annoying. I can consistently escape one grav well if I’m not stunned or rooted again by the time the 1 second is up, but sometimes if I escape, I’ll actually get a long “freeze”. By now I know to just keep running because I did actually escape, but it’s really annoying.
