tbo xp loss is absolutely necessary because without it there would be NO consequence to dying in pvp as it stands now, but it is severe as hell because xping is so godawful slow

thus xp needs to be boosted and the best way to do so is a massive group xp buff to foster cooperation and help melees.

Either that, or they need to tone down the xp loss in pvp, by alot.

I'm just trying to point out that this game isn't about skill

So let's compare me playing a wizard versus, say, Lamort.

Equal skill?

People fumbling through their bags for consumables (not having them too)? Not knowing when to engage? Starting casting a spell quickly from the right distance? Keeping awareness of everything around you while pvping in a high risk zone?

I took a NoS off that dude lol


Blart didn't PvP in all no drop or naked... seems to do rather well..

Necro was just ssssooo much better when resists were working.

Have fun trading draughts for defluxes :P when he got consistent partials and resists at 130 fire/cold.

Also, with that said, dispelling mattered muuuuuch more and buff stacking/clickies was part of any real caster battle.

I've also noted that casted buffs will not try follow a "push down" method here, where it tries to open to jump into the first available top slot. Rather, here it just replaces itself if already active.

The logic (read: fix), using today's system as an example, should be that it should always reapply the spell presuming that one did not already exist. Applies to both red and blue, fixed on the vztz server I can remember playing.. so.. QUITE doable.

I agree with you when you say what makes a good player. I just don't think it's skill based. It is time investment and knowledge of PvE/PvP mechanics. If some guy gets nervous and freezes that is one thing. This game can't compare to modern games when it comes to skill needed to be on top. I'm not saying the skill based games are more fun, I like this game, but people pat themselves on the backs here when the outcome of a fight is often decided before the first action is taken. It was decided a week ago when the guy was farming a golem wands, having his shaman buddy brew him potions that make other classes pointless, or gathering resist gear.

You don't need to bring up someone that doesn't know how to click on a potion to cure their poison. I think that is just Lamort's mental capacity.

Watching someone run out of range of a healer and die is situational awareness. You gonna say that Ed Reed's awareness, all the tape he's watched.. all the practice he's had, on the field compared to say ... me trying to fill his shoes isn't a difference of skill?

I fought Action in WC, in fact, I gated in to him without draught up (comet + others tho, I was 53) and he didn't land a single spell on me and had to gate. Had Keylime told me he was waiting there, I would have had draught up instead of memming Tox Portal before hand and killed him with a draught (presuming no partial here) while he attempted his gate.

There's good players and bad players. Call it experience, reaction time, mental capacity, being able to stick to targets or joust better or just knowing the fights. It involves skill. I just gotta rest my case here man.
