Balance is more ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ than Dark and Darker.

[h2od]

Logged in. First game. Picked cleric. Killed some goblins. I play Cleric in DnD, so this all seemed familiar. Saw a stealthed rogue, pressed E, got shielded and killed him in 2 hits. Maybe he was just low on HP.

Loot rogue. See a Sword master coming at me. I press E, put on shield. Sword master kills me in literally 1 hit.

I inspect him. Full epics, lvl 20, pub stomping me in my very first game.
To get 1 shot as a cleric with my shield buff up is assinine.

in an Easy 1v1 lobby with a bunch of gear

also it is balance... game should account for level differences.

that is a balance issue you dolt. Lvl 20s shouldn't be paired with lvl 1s.

aand when matchmaking is imbalanced, it's a balance issue.

"Balance is out of whack"

> Proceeds to tell us how he got his ♥♥♥♥ pushed in by a person in Epics and thinks his Common gear should have saved him

[digdug]

gear and level should give you an advantage, but that doesn't mean it should make it so you're going to curb stomp a lvl 1. There should be a balance where skill is more important than gear.

All of you defending the design behind the current system have room temp iqs

[Detestar Concierto]

but lv 1 VS lv 20 with full gear tho....
I thiiiiiiiiiink the one with room temp IQ is not really far above me

[Tri-Enclave President CEO]

Funny, just read this and next match I got obliterated by a level 20. Definitely needs better matchmaking so a level 1 doesn't fight against a max level 20 with God knows what kind of gear.

[Chocbomb]

Balance issue.
Matchmaking is broken.

[El Cockquistador]

It's a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Chinese knockoff of an already ♥♥♥♥♥♥ game what do you expect, polish and balance?

Worse than Dark and Darker lol - when we had 85% PDR fighter, rogue landmines, 2-shotting Ranger and 300+ HP barbarians.

Balance and matchmaking are always hot topics in extraction games.
And this will be an ongoing topic.

I am not quite sure if OP wants to talk about balance or matchmaking.
I am not a fan of matchmaking of any kind except for whelp protection for the first x matches. If we match by gear that removes the reason to gear up. Games like this thrive from highs and lows.
Gear disparity should be reasonable between base gear and BiS.
Class balance needs work.

Funny thing is. We still have all that ♥♥♥♥ you said and more lmfao

The only thing this "Test" is missing is the addition of high roller/hard mode (which is coming this week) and making it mandatory after a certain gear score. There was a Rogue runnign around with all blues and purples one shotting default players earlier. While Rogue is easy to deal with in this game, you won't stand a chance in default gear against somebody doing that.
