About White lion AOE

[Wdova]

What happend to Slayers?
Why AOE white lions topin damage charts and dbs count in cities?
Why best single target frontload burster and most mobile MDPs on order side became also best AOE dps at same time?

Is this how balance works?

Is this how balance works?

1) Nothing, still higher dmg potential than WLs have, requires more carry+support though

2) Only if running down enemy pugs + finishing targets, a balanced equal fight and SL does more dmg pressure + burst (no pets in cities). If you fighting pugs, the WL will get to each target faster + melt it before SL even reaches it. Even the greatest proc bomb potential of WL loses to placement of 2-5 ID procbombs + Rampage potential assuming enemies havent already been overrun + dead.

3) Its missing the burst due to missing the pet in cities, the pet cannot be sustained in long AOE based fights. Come play both sides and try cities from multiple POVs before spreading lies - SL excels at certain fighs, WL in certain other fights. And no other class in game comes close to the actual dmg potential of a well played well carried SL player who has brains.

Lot of SL "mains" may have finisher their Sov grind already, and are now trying WL alts. Same stuff has happened on Destro, people finish 1 main and now gear whatever alts.

Mobility is the key here. WL is least affected by CC, even punted can pounce back in to target in no time. Like Auran said, WL is pug killer, SL more organised city oriented when there is a comm and coordination.

some slayers need to git gud

If a WL specs into aoe it loses much of its burst with pet addition abilities and other abilities like heal debuff, knockdown etc not available, so it's not particularly front loaded. Most of its aoe is from Meatspin. I would prefer to have a Mara personally, no pounce but slightly better aoe damage and group utility and survivability, without pet, plus brilliant M4.

If WL/Mara out dps Slayer/Choppa is usually if much better gear, survive better or the Slayer/Choppa isn't very good.

WL does not outdps Slayer in cities when gear/skill is the same, it also doesn't get shattered limbs

[Foltestik]

Wl can get bigger number becouse have 3 Dot and his aoe is 24, and slayer isnt but its not so much efektive dmg like slayers.

becoz wl used to whine about mara monstro stuff then they got a better aoe build.

And there was me thinking it was cos WL was order, I stand corrected
