Re: Mara vs WL

Of course English in not my native language. But two things that stuck me the most it needs to be toned down so other WB play-styles have a look-in and I didn't promote nerfing of AOE bombing either are mind bugling to say the least. some guilds (*cough*yours*cough*) Blobbing as 14man is something ...

Still playing the same classes, just swapped names and WL is my main nowadays and I'm part of King's Own. :-)

Re: Returning Archmage from Karak-Norn

Some played Rift and GW2 a bit together, but most of us were scattered across the winds. :-)

Re: Mara vs WL

You want to play single target in the game of large scale battles with huge numbers of people from both sides, despise "AOE funneling" and want the game to be changed to fit your desired playstyle while going an extra mile to show that you are all in it for the better of everyone and some...

Re: Mara vs WL

9 target limits was just 1 small thing that changed Along with 50% less contr from stats while all AoE tactics got nerfed between 10-30% depending on how many tstgets it could hit. CQ was completly revamped to nerf BW Sorcs but it ended up being the only class that had usre for it. While the other ...

Re: Mara vs WL

Have you considered that nerfing bombing or buffing single target are not the only ways to deal with a bomb / zerg problem? Exactly. I don't think that the problem is that AOE damage is too high (arguably, a little bit too high as it should be pressure damage, not the be-all-damage), neither that t...

Re: Mara vs WL

So to summarise: - singletarget is much more skillful - the meme invented by our dearest 6man community, that just nuke one target after another with the ocasional M1, guard punt or healer stagger. Much skill indeed :^) - bombing is one-button mashing - most builds revolve around at least 5 or more...

Re: Mara vs WL

Don't make it sound like "Le Bombing is wrong". Le Bombing is not wrong per se, but unfortunately it is wrong as it currently stands. Why? Because (a) it's the only viable WB play-style to be competitive in RvR and thus it kills diversity in the lakes, (b) it pushes certain classes out of...

Re: Mara vs WL

I would agree with Echosta, Jaycub and Peterthepan. In Peter's words, "the white lion class is a single-target burst MDPS. It provides the highest armor debuff in the game, has pounce for getting to individual targets to deliver huge frontloaded burst." We should not endeavour to make the ...

Re: SM vs WL

Arguably, WL is easier if you play solo (e.g. ganking/roaming) or in PUGs (scenarios/WBs) due to the mobility of the WL. A tank is slow and cumbersome by nature, which makes escaping if you're in trouble with no proper support more difficult and definitely more risky. If you do go SM, someone mentio...
