What about the promise of giving something back when you nerf? And about this game beeing soloable to 200? Forgot those I guess. Keep making our timeinvestment in this game a waste and we wont waste our time on your game anymore. Really is this the way FC gonna keep ppl motivated to keep playing this game? Nerf whatever items we have to worthlessness then introduce new items to compansate? If so thats really the most amateurish way to run a RPG I've seen and doomed to failure. So are debuffs that are instacast and virtually impossible to resist and makes opponents useless, like trader drains and doc slow. TMS is way more powerful because it reflects all types of damage, 1vs1 its more or less 80sec invulnerability. Ppl can claim its overpowered as much as they like the, so is TMS 75% reflect in 80sec. Good job taking away ppls motivation of lvling FC, no wait lvl reqs on nanos solve that! 1050 or 1100 atk? 790 or 830 unbuffed evades? Thats the difference between lvl 162 and 200 in skills for my chars. And I agree this was most of the advantage of beeing lvl 200. Reflect bracers are almost worthless after this. If you look at the DB proj/energy/melee bracer can only go in right wrist and physics/elements/nano in left wrist. The arul saba bracers might actually take the reflect bracers place as the tool that gives high levels a little edge over mid level players. a particular damage type, and will still reflect 21 points max.īut with arul saba bracers comming out (seems like they are comming out at least) we might see people going for +7-800hp or +150 hp/+100 damage type bracers instead. Looked at a new DB and saw that the nerf is 42% -> 14%, not 42% -> 7% like Cosmik claimed. I guess seeing level 140s slapping around a level 200 is going to become a regular event after this.

a significantly lower level character of a 'strong profession'. Well, bracers was a tool that allowed high level characters of 'weak professions' to survive vs. Well, I guess i can thank all the lowbie whiners who didn't wanna spend the time getting bracers for themselves, got killed, then whined about it, for this nerf. An mmoprg shouldn't be about equality all the time, people who put more time and effort into a game should be a tad more 'uber' than others. Why not just give everyone the same damn gun, hp, armor, items, etc.? That's what it's becoming. Pfft, once again funcom takes away another 'Edge' players can get themselves by putting more time and effort into the game than others. To be honest, I have a couple crappy bracers on now, and got novice without the help of bracers, but was planning on hunting down all my bracers 2 more levels from now ( when i hit 190 ), in hopes of becoming more harder to kill. I could see maybee decrease the %'s on them a bit, but funcom, your running the bracers into the damn ground, just like you did with trader team heals. This nerf punishes the people who took the time to go hunt for these bracers and obtain them, and takes away another + of being high level! Having a couple title 6 bracers at lvl 190+ is an advantage of being high level in this game. Only quarrel I have is the change on bracers, here are my thoughts:īad move funcom. First i'd like to say I'm happy with the upcoming patch, the changes look pretty cool, and should bring along alot of fun! Good going funcom. You will now only be able to get a maximum of 7% reflection against a particular damage type, not up to 42%. Bracers of Reflection have been changed to be less effective.
