Played a necro since the first day on Vallon Zek. You and Thrilla are completely wrong. Please go find a screenshot of Deflux healing for 330 in pvp. You can't because it never happened.

Also I didn't talk about Vexing's damage component, just the healing buff.

YOUR WRONG!

I seriously think a necro like Thrilla who won BOTB on live and guy ranked number 8 on 5000 pop server would no more than you about how pvp worked.

DoT spells should do full damage in PVP and no one gives a fuck ? Well whatever

Your right dot dmg never did full dmg in pvp and shouldn't do full dmg here!

One bane of Nife at 5 secs will straight out kill a caster even with full vellious hp gear! And no if they implement that the server will fill with tears!

One ebomb will drop a self buffed caster to 15% life here lol!

Hey if you want to make necros non-classic and buff the shit out of them, be my guest -- I play a necro.

But I've played since 2000 and I know what I'm talking about: Lifetaps are DDs and DDs do 2/3 dmg, and lifetaps only heal the damage they deal. Please prove me wrong, I'd love to be able to not die instantly post 50 to melees. Then again healing for 330 and not 219 against a monk, warrior, rogue, etc. isn't going to do shit. They'll still out-damage it and they have way more hitpoints than I do.

Sham poison dots *never* landed on live with the double resist check, even after malo. Most SZ shams I remember fighting 55+ would use malo + decay to land the disease, then melee for the finisher. DoT damage here is far too low for that to even be viable.

I could 2 shot in range int casters on RZ with stinging swarm and WD in 7.25 sec of casting if they didn't dispell. Again, this would be impossible with the DoT damage here, as both of those would only do 70% or so to a lower level caster here.

But really, classic isn't a solution. Melee damage is much higher here than live, and casters can't use clickies to refresh spell gems, so adjustments should be made to keep casters viable. The current resist code was probably intended to serve that purpose, but just ended up being far too big of a step.

agree, and very curious how the new dev will handle this.

Potus I thought you played a druid. So confused right now

So many needed fix in it!

-Highsun fix'd

-Detrimental clickies only usable in PVE

-Beneficial clickies have added cast times(golem wands etc)

-Soulfires paladin only(May have added cast times)

-Fix to OOR dispelling

-Magician earth pet roots resists fixed from 30% @ 150mr to 80% @ 150mr.

and up to 15 more fixes concerning pvp.

In the upcoming patch(the one after this one, if everything goes right), we will have classic resists(HUMONGOUS CHANGE).

We, at Nihilum, can't wait for all these to go in(especially classic resists). This server needed this when it opened but its never too late to change it! Hopefully population picks back up when this all goes in.

Even the next patch will make it way more interesting for everybody, getting rid of instant clicky kills/golem wand spamming, highsun spam on casters and earth pet roots.

All this means is Teams 99 is ONE STEP CLOSER!!

You will get the maximum of the taps potential.
