Riposte ICD

Post#1 » Tue Jul 02, 2019 7:47 am

there are 4 skills using same mechanic - dmg reflection on avoidance.
SM - Wall of darting steel.
BO - Can't hit me.
BG - None shall pass.
and mdps tactic - Riposte.

above 3 are channeling. Riposte is tactic.
it doesn't interfere with rotations
it doesn't require any player input.

other high rewarding tactics are balanced by restriction.
excluding yourself, internal CD, stat penalty etc.
Riposte is exception.

argument point
1. it gives anti-melee advantage but weakens you in every other area.
so it's balanced.
- it gives extream advantage, that's problem.
and you can avoid situation where it doesn't give big advantage in solo.

2. it's solo spec
balance should be done around grp play. true.
but solo is also part of the game.
leaving extream cases like this untouched makes that area broken.
player skills should be more involved in this area than pets or auto dmg.

suggestion
internal CD 1 second.
