Since 61% of forum voted against Null's VZTZ resist system, a compromise is in order

Does it sound like fun playing a melee and having to run to the zone line every time two hostiles appear in the zone you're in because one can chain cast snare the entire fight while the other nukes or melees you to death for a free kill?

This right here completely negates the rest of what you say. Two hostiles? In theory, 2 will beat 1. It will not matter which classes are involved. If you are afraid of death then stick to zonelines. I don't know what else to say except you sound like you do not know the game very well.

Enc/Wiz can mez/nuke people to death. Classic combo. No snared/root needed.

Eh I disagree, if you think CC spells landing promotes the casuals you're pretty far off. It'll be the fully decked hybrids/melee train from a cooridinated hardcore player base that will destroy your shit. You can't shake a melee train snared, target ring or not - the biggest group of retards would zerg me down on vz/tz when snare landed. I literally out jousted Jakkt with 10 dmg daggers, but oh no grp pvp im snared with 180 mr and now he's a godmode tstaff monk instead of a retard who can't time shit.

It depends on the situation. It's easy to avoid a big zerg of people if you /who frequently. Personally I say it would allow the casual player a chance to beat the hardcore people in 1v1 when they actually can land spells on them. Instead of being totally destroyed by every godmode melee or caster with high resists. That's my opinion though

[Amuk]

Wrong again, if cc spells land consistently you just won't see godmode melee riding solo. You'll see them leading the charge of a cooridinated guild in a bard group destroying snared people. I mean if resists are being "balanced" for casuals to fight 1v1 I'd probably want to put a gun in my mouth for waiting this long. I don't think anyone wants all spells to be 100% resisted with gear, just the game breaking dumbing grp pvp down ones.

BTW I don't think anyone wants all spells resisted, ebolt/plague/lava bolt/ice comet are going to wreak some havoc on your 1200 hp wizard regardless if he's snared.

Actually most of my gear was given to me. Who are you in game? I'm sure I've hurt you as well.

Amuk if those people run around in groups then you got nothing to fear. If you're alone exping somewhere and you see a group of people entering the zone then you just run away. On the other hand if you see 1 or 2 people entering then you'll most likely stay and go on with your business. I don't see how groups running around will kill anyone beside those who totally lack awareness.

Nvm I see your point now. When you say casual you literally mean someone who takes a year to grind to 50, and doesn't fight for anything significant. I call those people scrubs, I call casuals guilds like kotwr/FOI/SOTG etc on TZ, or like vesica dei on p99. People that actually raid/progress, just arn't on top - with the "casuals" resist system it'll be like 25-0 k/d for the cooridinated melee train guild compared to the casual guild.

can't make it like it was on zek? not emulated fake zek.

Yes this is exactly what I mean with casuals and those are usually the majority of any game.
