Runes of Magic US / AU

True, if statted like a mage this is an overpowered skill. But this is the only skill priests have that is actually a DPS skill and it is only for Priest/scout. Also if statted like this, there heals would be lower, its a trade-off. DPS with not-so-good heals or Healer with not-so-good DPS.

Really guys? And you dont think other classes need cooldowns on some of their abilities? You guys have been whining about the ice blade for months..if you dont like it being put on you, create a priest/scout and then you can have it to..Stop whining!

This is getting old....

Try using ice blade ......... then complain

I tried using Ice Blade as a rogue/scout but it didn't work, FML

I think Iceblade on P/S needs to be given a cool down, its way over powered that is all

wtf man? i play a r/s and i get frustrated when people call for nerfs on my class combo. nerf hide blah blah blah. the fact of the matter is, if you knew how to play your class you could get around ice blade. scouts with perception and ice blade are probably the 2 biggest problems for me but i still manage to get around them.

figure it out...

edit: oh, and when i say learn how to play your class, that partly entails understanding that just because you can get one shotted doesnt mean that the other guys' class is overpowered, it usually means your GEAR is woefully underpowered compared to him/her.

Every time someone in siege or PvP is killed by any skill or class there are posts on the forums about that skill or class being OP. In the past couple of weeks there have been posts about rogues, mages, scouts etc. being overpowered. The list of skills and complaints about them is even longer. There are even posts about wardens and their pets being over powered and now priests.
This is a one shot kill game learn to live with it. You are going to be able to be killed by one shot in almost every encounter that is the way is the game is designed and meant to be played. There is no way to change this game to make seige or PvP individual battles last longer it is a game about speed, whoever gets off the first shot wins most times. Many skills are buffs are set for seconds or one shot before cooldown and are only good for that first shot so that it must be a kill shot. That is this game. One shot one kill learn to play that way with good use of a second class there are ways to play every class that way.

see my sig. i have an op class in the works just for siege. leveling him atm is slow as i dont play but an hour or two a day. but yea, roll one yourself.

The most hilarious thing about complaints about IB is that it isn't a one-shot skill unless the person getting one-shot is low level or really undergeared.

I'm pretty well geared as mages go (well, for Palenque anyway) and on my p/s, I rarely one-hit anyone. I need 2 shots at least, usually three. I have about 104k buffed for siege, and rogues, scouts and sometimes mages smoke me with one hit. My IB on the other hand, only hits for between 35-85k depending on crits and the mdef of the target, and almost anyone I try and kill has at least 100k+.

Putting a CD on IB would kill it as a PvP class, and make it very unappealing as a healing class, as people usually play it because it's easier to level than your average priest combo. All of those people would suffer in PvE play, and nerfing PvE for balance in PvP is a baaaaaaad idea.

Gear your own class up and think strategically. A p/s isn't at all hard to kill, and while they can hit the top of the kill charts fairly easily, they can also be dealt with fairly easily, if you send your rogues in to kill them. I spend more of my time in a siege war on top of the castle buffing than I do out on the field killing. We just look scary. In reality, most of us are insanely squishy, as long as all the people involved are close to the same gear level.

i had a delicious reply here that very likely would have gotten me a trolling violation with a flame violation for dessert, very likely a forum time-out too.

so ill condense and try not to flame you

L2P and stop cluttering the forums with OP posts. really? ur gunna pick on priests?

no more nerfs, no more calls for nerfs, no more discussion about topics related to nerfs. i cant take another round of them. i dont care about rogues, scouts whatever, whoever i just dont care anymore. every time they touch a class the game gets worse. leave it the F alone and stop breaking stuff or asking them to break stuff. learn to stat, learn to pvp, and learn how to dry those tears and cushion that sore butt.

I'm sorry, but that post deserved a +umptybillion

If I tried to say all that it would take me like 15 paragraphs, and I couldn't ever approach your level of violence restrained, Fearunal lol. That's a thing of true beauty.

What's your mdef? Nonexistent? Then you're the problem, not iceblade.

Eh, it had been a week. It was time for a new one.

uggh, another one of these threads...I think I'll save my energy and just sit out this discussion. Fan usually says all the things I'm thinking anyway.

Feel free to carry on though

If you're gonna cry for nerfs, at least list your main character's name, class, and level.

This is a Redundant thread and should be Deleted IMO. if you don't like being hit with Ice blade for so much damage, increase your magic def or make a priest/Scout and get them back. Stop making these threads as its getting really old and people are tired of them..Stop your QQ'ing!

+1 for the removal of this thread.
