Return of Reckoning

I do agree that backlash, imo, should just be removed.




I get the reflex, but this would erode class identity, and I think that's undesirable.

I'm pretty sure I'm speaking for most Sorcs and BWs that we don't mind playing a highly vulnerable, self-damaging class, assuming there's an ...

The damage is no longer there to justify the backlash.

My perspective as BW is that you're super squishy, not very mobily, barely have any cc, damage self... And for all that, your damage is not THAT high, compared to other dps classes.

This.

Broadly speaking, it's the same for sorc.

Excellent suggestion.

Regen kills build diversity, but at the same time closes the gap between normal glasses and some stupidly broken ones. Regen works especially well against dots. Without regen, prepare to go 100-0 from 2 dots thrown by a passing shaman.




This is a valid point. Shaman/AM has been borked in solo ...

Small scale is relatively common, yes, but not solo roaming.

As someone who exclusively solo roams on all of my characters - there are not more than ~15 roamers on a faction (SOLO roamers, mind you) in a zone which fields 200+ players on each side respectively, you even get to know them by names ...

Solo roaming/small-scale roaming isn't "niche" at all. It's a crucial part of a healthy RvR scene. Players need something to do during off-hours, and somewhere to go when the lakes are zergy.

Currently, it's being spoiled by the fact that normal players cannot compete AT ALL with regen builds.

Why is it lame?

Stacking for blob wars is optimised through certain classes items builds
Leet v Leet also has the same (other classes, builds and items)

Especially since regeneration stacking mostly hold value in a solo context and everyone has the option to do it



It's lame because you're ...

These and various similar items should be removed.

Regen stacking as the sole solo meta is just extremely lame.

I wouldn't agree that's the biggest problem.

It is that players are not incentivized nor given proper tools to fight against the blob.

At 40% AAO and above, it starts getting seriously difficult to find play even for experienced players. It's a lot of sitting around while getting nothing - no one ...
