Sensei

what's the hot bet here? If modoyko can make better score with DA 77 than SpellG?

Yea you would know better than me about 76-80 DA's Oh my god, are you drunk on holy water today? Go ahead play epicless 77 DA and tell us how that adventure went.

Give me back right now the 30 seconds I spent to read (and re-read to make sure I didn't read wrong) that epic crap! Yikes!

if not mistaken, on official Banes have a way lower chance to cancel but here its close to 100%. It would make a lot of sense if that cancel was affected by mental success/resist of user/target.

@VILEN are you ES? asking for a friend

Yes, that is exactly the world we live in Sieges and pvp, no, they will usually go on their main, but if the situation stays as is, I can definitely see Pony cps forming soon. about the classes you say at the end, I don't know if you refer to them individually or as cps, but the reason i picked ES is that the boost it received is turning the game towards a bad direction, imho.

not to mention that with so many chars 80 lvl, i can name a few counters to random ES's running around But let's stick to the point

You know whats funny? That in the screenshot I posted not a single of those ponies belongs to a top clan. I see macaco boxes and some randoms. Ofc their purpose is to feed, as it always has been. However the reason behind their increase is the real problem. If you see 9 ponies in that screen, it will be 15 in 1 month, because most people are just mentally insecure to play their original class and just want the dopamine effect of an easy win when they suck all their "career" in club. Outside rare encounters with 1 random ES annoying your xp is "more impactful" than olympiad? This just tells me that you see things on a very surface level.

test server is supposed to be a representation of live server, im more worried of how dmg scales there and here by what you showed.

it's not a math quiz to see if numbers add up. It's SHOULD THAT DMG BE ALLOWED goddamit?

I'm sure that even u are not dumb enough to think i would use an overexaggerated story to backup a point. There,i gave u 2 examples other than me, what about them?

@MoDoy you believe that I lie about the dmg above? what exactly? I don't think you do. If my "story" doesnt make sense to you, maybe Semen's 7k does? or natsuyama eating

Hello, my dearest community, It's been a while in our new patch, which brought a couple of changes to many classes whether it was nerfs/boosts/skills added etc. Buuuuut.....there is this one particular class that has increased in popularity since it received a tremendous boost and in the eyes of many ppl, including me, is almost game-breaking (especially in olympiad). Elemental Master A class that has been in top tier of oly farmers since the introduction of olympiad. What the new patch did to this class is basically boost their dmg by 30% , something that was justified as reverting back to how they were supposed to be. By official standards i suppose? Because by official standards, Fear lock is still a thing, while here it was changed (and most of us agreed it was ok). But let me ask you, was that 30% boost of Summoners that necessary? Let's look into it a bit. I'm going to use the skills of Magnus the Unicorn buffed by NPC of olympiad and master's (lv.77) buffs on a lv.80 Shillien Elder with: Weapon with Super Sigel p.def Rune 13 Bw light set +8 Majestic Necklace +5 unsealed / Majestic Earring +5 unsealed / core 3 / orfen 3 / aq 3 Baium Talisman Buffs: Bless Body, Magic Barrier, Shield and rest are irrelevant for this example - - (no Berserker Spirit) Magnus the Unicorn uses on target Whiplash (the stun skill) for 2,512 damage. Then proceeds to cast Tidal Wave for 4,437 damage, essentially 2-shotting a char of close to 6k HP and over 1,1k p.def and around 1k m.def. We can agree that at least one of those skills crit'ed. As a player who is heavily invested in oly, I've been seeing in discord chats/private messages some serious damage texts; ppl that I know their gear, from ponies that I could never justify in the past, yet by current meta are acceptable(?). People who have been playing for years here and see their chars get 2shotted or even 1shotted in cases of 80 lvl summoners are reconsidering their life choices and the result of this fiesta is apparent on hero voice, discord chats, pms, etc. The most frustrating part of it all is that the class does not require some huge gear investment to be effective. So let's raise some questions. Given those pet boosts, is this something we should accept as reasonable? Should the pet stats or Skill Power of pet skills get reduced? Should they all have the chance to crit? Was this change really important for a class that was already one of the top farmers to begin with? Should Aqua Swirl be nerfed? (getting crits of it for 1,4k on top of all that dmg adds extra salt) And last but not least, do we want olympiad to end up a place of carebears playing only ponies?

You give that +7 speed way too much credit. You will not outspeed anything because you are still a human mage. Stick with BW light, if you manage to get +8 set (yes, they exist if you ever get there) you will get some good bonuses, including your beloved speed boost (+4). If you really don't wanna heal your party, you can still kite/root frontliners but purification song will make it mostly a waste of time and MP. That's how the game is right now. For tankiness +4 con +8 wit is acceptable. If you go less wit, your healing capabilities will take a massive hit (casting spd/crits of heal). Which is also why I would pick BW over Doom (ALSO stuns are more common than root/sleep). Bow/Melee setups outside are not even worth discussing, go for 1-handed magic weapon and shield. Cheers.

The fact that you get defensive also makes the suspicions intensify

I swear to god (although atheist), I saw the title and said "finally Semen made QQ thread"!

i never got muted, and im jelly af, look at zp's achievements

incredibly insightful. I would easily vote it "word of the year" for 2020 if corona wasn't so hot

I'm very curious if "macaco" is actually a derogatory term used frequently in Brazil or if we are the ones who came up with it. If it's the later I would feel so proud of us What a great word!

I could see a point to all you said except for this part. A cp is supposed to share chars and if not, at the very least responsibility. If they play together for a week (and I'm being generous), they probably know already if someone bots/loops and should act on it. But randoms or simply ppl who play the game for the 1st time in their life? What are u gonna tell them? Sorry, unlucky?

ok so lets say your friend plebas..i mean bleras decides to lvl up a new toon, so he joins random RB party like he has done in the past, brings krystynka to buff them and someone uses bot. What happens then?

'merica!

Oh man... this was like strict old timers preaching that polygamy is a trick of the devil.

thank you for not allowing ppl to play 2 servers at a time. The ethical value you brought to this topic is on par with our silly flame.

you tell me. He is clapping dem cheeks better?
