Time to fix the last one shot mechanic?

HD1994 · 2023-01-16T15:01:53.068Z

I think that perk should just help the farming. It doesn’t make any sense abuse with this stuff in pvp. The only fights i’m having since 3.0 its all about naked with bad gears trying to jump on people head.
That’s all.
So, how we want to approach this?
Just remove this stupid stuff. Oneshot stuff should no exist in pvp game.
There is literally no pvp now.

Lol, it never ends, abusive gameplay in PvP

SirDaveWolf · 2023-01-16T15:11:33.057Z

Damage over time. Just as if you are drowning. People can still be killed then for the achievement but it can’t be abused for cheap oneshot.

They nees to code it where you cant double jump when over encumbered even with beast of burden perk. It shoukd be possiboe, as without beast of burden it stops dodging, just use that code and tweak it.

SirDaveWolf · 2023-01-16T17:43:43.951Z

Just remove oneshot and no one will ever complain about it again.

Re-posting my suggestion.

Some QoL PvP changes that many might agree with Feedback

Obviously Tower of the Elephant is a crucial element of CE. I’d propose making it require you to stand on someone’s head for no less than a half-second before it triggers rather than instant. This should make it far more difficult to use as a viable combat tactic while not removing it outright or nerfing the perks.

Beast of Burden simply needs to be replaced with +150 carrying capacity.

No need to change (and thus bug out) the squish mechanic, change a steam achievement, or any other silly bug inducing major changes. Simply change a perk to grant a significant stat bonus.

Yes. I never liked that you can carry and run with no limits.

Been fighting enemy clan for a few months on various servers. They have usually 3-4 dedicated goomba players trying to squish us while we try to fight normally. We are better players than they are so we have beaten them everytime so far but they do get successful crushings on us. It does NOT feel good to out fight a group of players, try to grab their loot and get get 1 shot when we go to grab it. Leave it to funcom to reward players who arent good at tgeir game enough to fight properly. We obviously have our own people goomba stomping to counter them but they would prefer to fight properly.
This game is an absolute disaster right nkw and i have ZERO faith in thia new dev tream at this point. I wanted to give Dennis and the team a chance, i rrally did, but they havr been just as bad as their predecesors. Theyve lied about pay to win items on bazaar and BP, they dont patch bugs in a timely manner, infact introduce new bugs every time making the game even more unbarable. Anyone who doesnt hardcore PvP you probably wont understand these frustrations like PvPers, but this games bad now…really bad.

SirDaveWolf:

Once i believed that if full encumbrance stopped from this game i’ll quit. Now i feel the exact opposite . The game is too easy now, the inventory of the player can loose at least the half capacity. I know it’s not enough, but it’s a start.
About the elephant tower… I don’t care, all the times i killed someone like this on the past was clan mates . I was constantly over encumbered in the base trying to organize the chests. Somebody had to do it!
If Funcom wishes, they can bring it to pve, so i will be able to kill npcs this way, and remove it from pvp.

Imagine this game with minors… Omg . I am pretty sure most of the players that use this method are 12 year old boys… But i can’t prove it and i don’t want actually, no way!

Just remove the ability to double jump while over-encumbered…problem solved. You have to actually fall or drop on a person and therefore a bit harder to do.

No, it doesn’t. There are so many ways to fix this without crippling a useful and valid perk that many of us enjoy in PVE just because it’s being abused for cheap kills in PVP.

SirDaveWolf:

The limits are there. The stamina regen is awfully slow, you can’t ride, and your inventory slots are limited to 200 max (less than a full vault).

Stop asking for the nerf sledgehammer when a scalpel will do.

That would solve the issue

Xevyr · 2023-01-17T04:57:56.441Z

No…
All of the above are simply way too destructive for absolutely no good reason…

It’s really simple and I suggested this before

Keep everything as it is, but simply require the player to fall at least from 2 foundations high in order to do the one-shot damage… that’s all…

You might have some base defenders from higher ground jumping on you… and kudos to them for that… but it won’t be a “meta” and double-jump won’t mess with it either.

And replace the tower of the elephant trophy for something better!

Beast of Burden causes PVE issues as well, even more so than PVP. Its time for it to go.

Xevyr · 2023-01-17T06:18:59.915Z

I mean, it just arrived I don’t think it’s going anywhere.
If the devs wanted to get rid of it, they would’ve had the perfect opportunity with the attribute revamp, and by perfect, I mean it doesn’t ever get any more perfect than that, since they could’ve even gotten away with it because of the distraction window Age of Sorcery granted them

If you want to discuss the PVE aspects of this, make a thread about it. Don’t get another thread locked up for going off topic.

CodeMage · 2023-01-17T06:56:12.631Z

Hey, I’m not the one who’s claiming “it has to go” because of “PVE problems”. If you want to discuss it in a different topic because you don’t want to derail this one, that’s fine with me – make a topic and link it. The onus on putting some substance behind your claim is on you, not on me.
