Re: Lack of Order in ranked
Where have you been? There have been multiple proposals in numerous threads, go back and look - I'm not doing it for you lol. I've spent a lot of time proposing ideas, compiling numbers, testing, and providing feedback after the first patch when MS was removed.... All that effort got me was the immediate removal of vigilance in 2h spec. So no, not doing that crap anymore.Atropik wrote: ↑Sat Dec 05, 2020 3:50 pmIf there could be a way to improve dps on kotbs, maybe devs could give it some love, if there was a decent proposal?

Re: Lack of Order in ranked
If you're not killing it's not a damage issue, it's a coordination issue. Plenty of good knights running 2h with the mentioned build. Unless you're 2 knights in group trying to be offensive with some nonstandard build is a waste of perfectly good utilityAlucard2010 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 05, 2020 3:13 pm Lol - I love the forum warriors here.

Re: Lack of Order in ranked
Why do you think, you have to go full deftard with this spec (it's possible but not required)? You can go as offensive as you want or as your team can get away with. I don't know how you manage to do only 10k dmg if you fight in ranked as a Kotbs. The fight lasts 10min (maybe 9min if we subtract the starting time), this means your dps is below 20! This would mean you only use auto attacks i guess? Numbers between 30-80k depending on your gear, RR spec and your ability to spam your dmging abilities between your cc, are more realistic and totaly enough for ranked solo (and premade).Alucard2010 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 05, 2020 12:53 amIt's a nice utility build. Unfortunately you missed one element of why I'm not going to queue ranked - 2H tanks are EXPECTED to bring some amount of assist dmg in order to be successful in ranked. If you haven't realized this yet, then you are likely not at the same level of play yet. 10k noodle dmg output by KOTBs is not up to snuff with literally ANY other tank in the game right now.blechkautz wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 11:43 pmKotbs has a very viable 2h spec for 6v6. Infact it didn't change for the last 5 years. So there is nothing that hinders you from queueing.Alucard2010 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 10:09 pm I legit refuse to queue ranked until KOTBs has a viable 2h spec for 6 man. gimped the class into the ground, not worth trying to play it in a competitive setting doing 10k dmg in ranked.

(auras = resist,stay focused and ap)
Your main Job as a Kotbs in 6v6 is support, which means well timed cc. Your not gonna win a fight by pure dmg (if the enemy is not trash), but by well timed cc from the tanks. This is where the kotbs excels at and one of the reasons why every (atleast allmost) order 6v6 team brings one and only one kotbs. After your done all your supportive tasks, you can go deal dmg, but the amount you bring or have to bring is negligible.
Sure Kotbs has the lowest dmg potential of all tanks, but there has to be one with the lowest. Nevertheless it is still a very viable, I'd say mandatory, pick for 6v6 thanks to the kit it brings.

I think you made clear, that you don't like the role that a kotbs has for 6v6 and would rather have a role where you deal more dmg. Sadly for you, there is and was never such a role for kotbs in 6v6 if you don't count some meme/lol "dps" specs. But claiming kotbs has no viable spec 2h for 6 man ist just wrong.
Re: Lack of Order in ranked
The fix for Knight is simple.
Let Knights go full Max mode and have a 2h and shield at the same time lol

Re: Lack of Order in ranked
Ranked Queue mode (the mode that requires to have 2 tank 2 dps 2 heaelers) should be the only mode for all scenarios. That way all scenarios would have balanced setup and ppl would start understand how game works or can be played properly. From that they would more likely queue for Ranked i believe or at least be ready to queue for ranked SC.
Tbh, i would be even more extreme and i would make Ranked SC as only available mode for Scenarios, with maybe only 1 PUG SC, or Ranked SC should be event SC maybe.
