Quoted from "xMagus;568841"

the skill works fine yes it does what it is supposed to do which is an instant cast however if spammed fast enough can hit a player 2-4 times in the same global cooldown which is not working as intended. It is not my client that isnt updating its not lag or video card problems its obvious and straight to the point casted faster then the global therefore making it an exploit. We argue this all day about your broken class or you can man up or woman up and say Hey yes this is how i get kills in siege because if it wasnt this way I would go down faster then a cheap hooker after labor day.


Show me a video of someone getting 4 iceblades off on one global cooldown and we can talk. Anyone can make crap up to try and prove they are right. I've never been able to "bug" the gcd to get kills. If you want to say something is broken, prove it. I've casted a lot of iceblades in my p/s career and not once have been able to do what you claim, how about u evidence up and prove those wild accusations that you're making.

Ok now it's my turn, rogues can kill people and ignore all siege defenses without ever coming out of hide or using escape, scouts can kill people at 350 range, and knights can stay immune for 3 consecutive minutes. See, I can say things that are wrong without backing it up with anything too, this is fun.

I can show you actually quaffy, its not just ice blade though that does this, it gets QQ'ed becuase its one of the only few ranged skills that doesnt have its own cooldown and magic based. ( what i mean by this is its easy to do in pvp, rather than other skills.)

Any skill in this game that only based on GCD can be used pretty much, a W/r can easily test this using Blood dance and then shadowstab.

Time the 2 perfectly and youll see it easily. And why i say blood dance and SS is because youll see in combat log 2 different skills so you dont get confused and stuff. That's what ill show in the video ill make tomorrow.

Heres an idea how about putting a 3 sec cast time on it or leave it alone and make it like a charged cast, where if the p/s is moving then it wont cast. Sort of like Franitc briar was before the nerf, ill take the 3 sec charged cast time any day over an instant with a 12 sec cool down.

Ice Blade doesn't need any cooldown or cast time..all it needs is a projectile attribute added to it so it acts more like shot/fireball etc. If you have ever played a priest healer and actual stat for heals and not like a regard that stacks wis/ma you will know that p/s ice blade is the only thing that makes priest bearable for questing and such. (I know you could make some pvp pieces but im too lazy to make a ANOTHER lot of gear -_-) Its just fcked that a a scout or mage for example can cast something before a p/s and still get owned before that cast even hits.

5. Diamonds and item sales. Its very nice to see Cedric implemented and working correctly. Its also nice to see the diamond cost lowered on a lot of items to the point where their reasonable. However, removing ABLs from the item shop regularly hurt the economy more then introducing Cedric will help fix. Now we have to wait to buy things or give things to guildies until theres a sale and hope that the players farming gear stock up on enough ABLs to get through to the next sale. You probably find a higher revenue if people were able to buy ABLs constantly since their constantly needed for players to progress and gear. Im sitting on a few items right now until theres another ABL sale since I farmed them and cant unbind them.


You missed a couple of things.

Implementing bans on zeevex trade; the handicap of not being allowed to buy zeevex from players so diamonds can be recharged as and when we want means trying to buy from players. Great idea *claps*, been wasting megas for a couple of days and no sellers or sellers wanting *45-65k per dia when it was 30-35k per last week. Personally I'd hate to see people start raging when gear prices go up in coordination with the increase to the diamond prices, we can't blame the sellers for upping the price when there's sales but then again gear buyers shouldn't blame the gear sellers for upping the price of gear since most people only want to buy dias during sales....hmm lose lose for both sides...great strat o.ob

Increase in ruby prices for items for items from the ruby shop....another bright idea that deserves a round of applause.

I'll spell it out plain and simple if you want MORE Bang for Your Buck there are better and less expensive FTP and PTP games on the market.


Except that I'm spending 0 bucks, so my bang/buck ratio is already infinite...not sure how i can get it higher than "undefined"

Why so eager for bang for buck? How about play a game you enjoy playing. This is the only mmorpg that has kept me interested long term thus far.

Well the other night we fought a guild called "Unity" and as I was protecting Hilot from their unlimited ranks of nublets my guild was trying to take knin. Well it wasn't going so well cause they had a really good p/s and a s/r. Plus they had a few flame towers fearing people. So I did what any l2p rogue should do, I went in with escape, right to the p/s and one shot her. Then Va/shot their scout, he died then I took out all the flames. And we took the tower and they never got it back. I went back to Hilot and squished a dozen more roaches.

Yes some skills are OP, but there is a counter attack for each one. Some classes like a s/k with a p/k can hold a tower for 40 hours, but those same two may need a rogue to take it in the first place. I personally say IB needs a proper CD, but at the end of the day they are squishy as hell.

Let's just delete the class then.

We shall let the whiners win then and they can move onto the next class that killed them.

We should also delete all the other classes that kill P/S in siege because if a P/S is sooooooo OP then that would make the 200k 1 shot invisible attack from a rogue OP+5.
Check your combat log when you get ganked by a Rogue you didn't even see because the attack went off before the client showed the player. "You are Dead" then the damage hits you when your at the rez point.......Player exploit...not a chance. Crappy game....I think so.

As for a "casting exploit" there is no such thing and it's ridiculous to even come up with that idea. Pushing a button fast is an exploit? Really.....I lol'd myself out of my chair!
It's a broken laggy over priced game. Anyone complaining about dying, then blaming spell or skill for lagging in an inadequate game is again...rediculous.

This game is all but dead anyway. So lets just ruin some more classes so that we can just put this game out of it's misery.

Here,

The best example is at 0:34-0:39.

Any 2 spells or a spell with only GCD and even charged chop with its own 1 second cooldown can have this happen.

That is just the main one I use. And I also play it as r/s, r/k, and k/r, and statted mainly for r/k. I also have a r/p and a d/s/r that I use sometimes, all either endgame or close to it. I have about 10 toons Ive leveled into the 50s or so. So Im not just "another rogue". And the thread wasnt about iceblade, it was about things I have noticed in the past few months of being back. And considering rogues constantly get called exploiters for doing things like "hide" or "low blow", calling out a broken mechanic on a class isnt really all that out of range.

Quoted from "wolfstorm000;568545"

1. P/S. Really? Took forever to get rid of the scout burns from Ch.III/ beginning Ch.IV and there is a class thats worse in siege then a scout was. Ice Blade is a ridiculously over powered skill. It has been but I think Im seeing more of it now since Ive been back. Spammable with no GCD and high damage that seems to ignore most defense. Yeah, thats fair. And a lot of P/S's that Ive seen have been using targeting macros so not only is it a one-button class, they dont even push that button. It is kinda funny that some of the P/Ss Ive seen running around are FOTM players who couldnt wait for another glitched class.


Get more Mdef.

Quoted from "wolfstorm000;568545"

3. R/K. Still my favorite class to play, still the one I never use. Which part of nerfing disarm wasnt understood a year ago when it made R/K no longer a fully viable dps class with parties? With recons in both daggers the second I run out of energy and have to start spamming Holy Strike Im the tank. Sure, I can solo, and do, most anything I want, but I like playing in parties too. And I always have to go R/S unless I want to tank. As more and more times goes on I consider the opinion expressed a long time ago, that the developers play R/Ss and didnt want anything to compete with them, except now they play P/Ss.


You may have missed it but Throw & Combo throw actually do a damage based on your weapons as well. (So they do a reasonable amount of damage while you are out of energy, so out of energy should no longer be an excuse for not DPS'ing)

Quoted from "wolfstorm000;568545"

4. Dwarves. Overall a nice addition to the game. I played a Wa/M for awhile and thoroughly enjoyed it. The warlocks seem to have very great potential. Champions seem to have a lot of potential also. I just missed playing my Rogues. Which leads me to:
4a. When are knights going to get some sort of reworking? Ch. I was the last actual fix to knights that I remember and it shows. With the fixes done to Wardens and Champion being introduced we have 2 classes with the potential to out tank the tanks. Not to mention W/K, N/W and several other classes with plate ability. Everyone in game is talking about level 75 gear and when the level cap is going to be changed and knights are still not up to par, skill or ability wise.


From what I have seen, Wardens and Champions are good tanks but they still cannot compare to a fully stacked Knight.

Quoted from "wolfstorm000;568545"

6. Banning botters and reporting. For weeks on end I have seen people botting guard dogs and other sellable items. I have talked to multiple others who have reported such and yet they are still there. I have had the displeasure of running into extremely rude players (a few) who I would love to see some manners taught to. Yet I dont really see an option to report them for what they are doing. Would love to see a GM thread where things like that can be discussed.


I am pretty sure in every single thread botters have been brought up. The response was "Report them". (In case you missed it as well, I do remember one of the GM/CM's stating that they removed the in-game report feature because it was broken and had a 255 character limit so most of the time it involved asking the player for the information all over again.)
