The point is, you were claiming that everything the devs were changing was for pve. Yet example after example after example was shown of changes that were made explicitly because of pvp. No one is claiming that those changes were not needed, to a point. I would argue that the healing system was most assuredly better before, but as with all things Funcom the desired results lay somewhere in between where it was and where it currently is (closer to where it was though).

But who are those “casual player’s” asking to nerf everything? 99% of threads asking for things to be nerfed are from… PvP players. You can call them casual’s if you like, I couldn’t care less. They are still playing the same game mode. How many of those nerfs are warranted? A very small percentage (at least in the blanketed way in which they are calling for them).

This is a very good example of why crying for “NERF HORSES” is wrong. Was it ACTUALLY the horse that was the problem? Nope. Was it the weapon (lance), and the lack of dismount options that was the problem? Yes. The horse itself was not.

NERF DAGGERS! Another one that gets cried about all the time. Yet when you really look into it, it’s not daggers. It’s ONE dagger, maybe two daggers that they actually have an issue with. That’s it. But they want the entire class of weapon to be nerfed (which mind you, it already has been previously). Also, daggers would not be nearly as effective if they just turned off target lock, which they absolutely should do without question.

NERF BOWS! Bows are not even a good weapon option ffs! Yet there are cries to nerf them none the less. WHY? Because they can’t be arsed to look into what the actual problem is. ONE SPECIFIC set of attribute perks. But, those same attribute perks are “useful” to them for other builds to NO NO NO we can’t ask to have THAT nerfed, so **** everyone else who plays any other game mode where bows are pretty much rubbish to begin with, NERF THEM!!!

So yeah @Zeatros there have been significant changes to the game which have been done explicitly for PvP, and are still being done for PvP in spite of your, and others, claims to the contrary. And those changes have massive ramifications to everyone who plays the game in PvE or Singleplayer or RP or any other game mode out there. Do some of those changes need to be made? Yes! (Gomba stomp anyone?) Do we, as a player base need to be more analytical when we request changes to be made? YES!!! Because we should all know by now Funcom certainly isn’t going to be.
