Fair enough, you posted that while I was typing my comment.

Shock nova was glitched not overpowered, fix the glitch

They did. You no longer get the extra glitched damage from AoE boosts. Still, the skill was too much as it was. It's not like they just fixed the glitch and immediately cut the skill's damage without testing it.

Can one of the mods just lock this? thread is just going in circles.

i just wanted the mods to read my feedback, i didn;t start flaming me for voicing a point...

Your original point is irrational. The single most overpowered skill got reduced, but nine other skills got boosts. It's obvious that they're not going on the trend you implied.

learn to read

I know how to read and I still don't understand what you are complaining about.

If a skill does more damage than the developers intend it to, how do you fix it without lowering the damage? You say you want other skills buffed instead of nerfing but that would just make other skills overpowered also and you'd have a broken game. Our job as beta testers is to give feedback on make the game better and not break it.

I'd understand a bit more if they game was released and you built this character for pvp and then you're build became sub-par, but this is beta. We're balancing for release, it's not really nerfing.

and yeah, yeah... I know you don't play a shock nova witch.

Post was to avoid a trend that happens in every game. I never said "they keep nerfing".

With the way the game works and how much i like it i don;t want it ruined. Most people don't have the mental capacity to comprehend my point apparently (not good with words).

I want to be powerful when i get to endgame.

I want to feel weaker at low levels because i don't wanna waste skill points and i dont have many abilities.

I want to feel OP at high levels when i have a ton of good gear and have specced my tree perfectly.



I do not understand why everyone here wants to feel weak at higher levels. (not saying thats the direction game is going).


AGAIN this is about future progression of the game and not about current content

If you read you'd see its a plea not a complaint.

Here are the OP's points, as far as I can tell:

Everyone should be able to clear the screen in a couple seconds.

Uhhh...no. Sorry. Maybe that's your vision for the game. I disagree. I think most other people disagree. I hope the developers disagree.

Never nerf anything. Nerfing even 1 skill that was overpowered automatically implies we're about to launch on a cycle of class nerfs.

I think your logic is fallacious and you are overreacting. They rebalanced one skill. Let's just move on.

Currently most aoe users can clear the screen in a couple seconds. I Can....

If people want to be weak why are there so many Nova Witches? people only complained because they couldn't do it too.

Thread was about increasing other characters instead of traditional nerfing. Keep the high damage output, increase mob health. Point is the game is about STATS.

The title itself makes the thread look like a complaint, not constructive criticism. Don't tell people to learn to read when your own rhetoric is so poor you can't convey your point as you intended to.

I understand some aspects of the abilty were glitched but 30%. Did you ever think of upping the other other AOE abilities 30% instead.

also when you refer to the 30% nerf it was only applied to one thing: shock nova -
