So how is it a bo or bg is supposed to channel at the same time as spamming shatter enchantment, as they can obviously not do both at the same time...detrap wrote: ↑Fri May 21, 2021 9:49 am
But order doesn't have 50% block channel abilities while destro have two classes with this ability, it doesn't defend against rampage but when you have a blackguard with 1500 toughness to mitigate all that damage from rampage and 90% block to avoid all the other defendable attacks at the same time, it seems to even out.
Just saying it is a lot easier to type out the perfect situation on your phone and say "just 'blank' 4head" . Reminds me of those dudes back in guild wars 2 who used to say "just dodge lol" Things aren't nearly as clean and convenient as everyone likes to claim on these forums. Especially with lag, latency, and positional bugs (been parried and blocked from behind too many times to count, same thing with knocked down enemies parrying/blocking from the bum)
That's just a latency/lag issue, you deal with it as best you can. It's the same for everyone. Rarely had an issue in warband encounters getting my important attacks to work on targets and my latency is very high.
Anyone with experience playing this game knows things aren't always so easy or clean, especially when it is a messy 300 v 300 or more.
Those are rare occasions, I'm referring to more common warband vs warband events (or similar/smaller). So what abilities do you use apart from cc when assisting targets with your dps? Shattering/severing should be one of the first when its available, and in somewhere like city sieges, its very easy to land your attacks.
You make it sound like rampage is a crap ability because every tank and their mom is shattering it. Which, again, is hardly the case lol.
I didn't say that, but I will say it's not an overpowered one either. Albeit we have to wait and see what happens with destro not having access to cdr as often as before to help spam shatter enchantment more easily, that's IF the general population of destro tanks actually use it in the first place.
Also can I see a screen shot of a 1500 toughness bg, that sounds neat
2. I'm glad you can get your abilities off. But I would say it seems a bit silly to say things like "it works for me!" When plenty of other people have mentioned connection issues. Remind me of people who say on gaming forums "well it works for my rig!" When a game is released buggy.
3. And yeah if you are playing a poorly skilled wb you can derp around and focus the MA target with everyone else. But in reality a good tank is swapping guards and trying to cc incoming dmg and focus targets on cooldown. As well as punting away people that need to be punted.
Sure there are tons of times when you see rampage and you turn to target a slayer to shatter in the moment, but if that is all you're focusing on you're either playing a low skill wb or you already lost.
4. It is obvious from your signature and comments which side you main. I'm trying to spent even amounts of time on both sides and I can tell you a lot of the players play both sides. It allows me a better perspective, one i would hope for everyone on the server. So the same tanks who "don't know how to shatter" on destro are the same who "don't know how to shatter" on order. Just luckily you don't have to worry about rampage when playing on order.
Believe what you want to believe. Nerf rampage because your connection is bad. I enjoy playing both sides, just trying to help give some advice on how to play the classes to counter/mitigate rampage, because they do exist. Rampage isn't even the best thing in the Slayer skill trees that make them strong.
