Newsflash: T&L PvP is dogsh*t

[Atam]

To all the people who think they are pro players because they can push 3 buttons in order: you're not.
It's like playing a single player game in godmode. It's fun for a while but it will get boring quickly.
I was fighting someone and they were able to damage through 2 shields (2k each) , 3 heals (with passive proc boosts making them 4k each heal) while standing on a healing circle and with mid tier armour. Do the maths and that attack was doing 40-50k total damage. That's a fking joke.
So if you aren't being stunlocked without a chance to fight back you are being deleted by ridiculously unbalanced and poorly designed damage mechanics.
You are not PvP gods. It's a dogsh*t game and you're just playing it with the cheat enabled.
It's moot anyway because it'll be a dead game in 12 months. Enjoy stomping noobs for now but remember you'll fking suck hard when you go back to a proper game because you chose the soft option.

My dude. Some people are spending literally thousands of dollars just to get a single weapon.

The game is all about gear. You got hit by a whale.

It still stands. If gear trumps skill then it isn't a skill based game and therefore it is bad PvP. Besides, you can't buy your way out of a stunlock and that is absolutely poor game design.

Actually, you can. The stunbreak trinket is craftable and costs abyss mats that sell on the AH. You can also buy stunbreak potions at a vendor.

i agree, stun does not mean the player is good.

The simple fact that the game has so many CC abilities available to all different builds is just bad. There are no diminishing returns and with every build having 1 or more stuns the potions and trinkets are like taking an umbrella for a tsunami.
PvP is a joke in this game because it is designed for whales. The skills have to be extreme to make people open their wallets. Nobody is going to pay thousands to get a extra kill out of 10. They will pay thousands for a guaranteed 3 button delete. And the fact that that exists makes PvP bad.
Gear > skill is not skills based combat.

i think it was some riot games dev that said something about 'fun' mechanics not always being fair. it's a real pain to try and balance these things. massive cooldowns, environmental conditions, chance to proc, huge cost to character resource like mana or whatever. this all breaks down even more if you're dealing with 100 maybe 1000s of people with 'fun' abilities.

shii been this way since dawn of mmorpgs, mate.

Jokes on you I just shield push people off cliffs in gear from the dollar tree. I don't even trait my gear and I sell everything to buy cosmetics. I will continue to do so until someone stops me.

How u can have skill issue on a game that don't require SKILL to play ? Just gear and money ?

yeah these humans are a bane to the human race, so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ aggravating trying to farm a world boss on garbage timers with even more garbage drop rates, cant even make it into the boss half the time because the game punishes death and rezs you half health and mana and you just get focused by a bunch of ♥♥♥♥♥ in voicechat.

Only skill issue is those using greatsword and believing they have skill ;)
