Magic is overpowered

[Owned_Nex]

Whats funny is that you guys think PvP is a slugfest where DPS wins because you force the enemy to go through their food first.

 

Of course DPS doesnt always win, but good luck trying to KO when your opponent can eat twice, three, maybe even 4 times between hits.

 

Claw spec is not reliant on speed. People can't simply eat eat eat eat eat the entire fight. You have to take a chance or you cannot win. Sure, you can slow melee, but I'm going to keep barraging you will you eat. Once you get low, one hit is all that is required. Lets not even forget you can eat at the maximum of 2 food per attack cycle, even if the opponant is pure melee.

Safers can win, I've seen it happen quite a bit.

Not in real high level hybriding. Granted this may happen with pures, but by safing you only win when your opponent takes a gamble. If you miasmic me and start eating, i'm just going o walk out.

Many specs require the two hits, most claws/DDS specs i see KO on the 2nd or 3rd hit. Plus he will be outdamaging you by loads, which means you will more likely have to eat more giving him more of a chance to KO.

 

Sure, if you switch to mage its all well and truely, but having to use melee and range for nothing but the KO is a bit tarded.

 

No matter how you spin it, halving attack speed is a pretty big disadvantage.

 

If executed properly 1 claw spec is more than sufficient. 'He" won't be outdamaging me by the loads because I am not stupid and will just stand there melee/ranging, I will start using magic. Because magic speed is normalized, I can always out-eat the damage. Even if you do miasmic me, what stops me from spamming Blood Barrages? Even if you spam miasmic, and do more damage, I can easily out eat the damage. Also, remember that even if it was pure melee vs pure magic, even with miasmic melee can still do much more damage. While slower, even a rapier's maximum hit surpasses that of miasmic barrage. Not to mention that melee is not as restrictive to armor, and can use Karils. For ranging, this is even easier. In full range gear and using even dragon darts, you will still do more damage.

 

Magic itself is very weak. It is by no means overpowered. Even at half attack speed, magic is still severely limited due to the weak armor required, and the ability for melee and rangers to slap on karils and significantly reduce damage. Besides, magic has no KO potential at all.

Has to use magic to have a chance against magic.

 

Oh god.

 

I personally fully agree that mage is balanced, EXCEPT miasmics.

This has already been here but it doesnt help because its liek saying melee is balanced EXCEPT turmoil (prayers wise ofc) turmoil is still a part of it and making magic overpowered as a whole since mismics are included in magic.
