never what a reply in first place.
i'll just start ignoring your posts from now on, since they are not only gramatically, but also in terms of your thought process, waaaay to strange/hard to follow. additionally YOUR sense of whats good and what not is in my opinion completely retarded. alone that you do not see any benefit behind the overcapping of your resists/armor for 30 second (with just another whooping 30 seconds downtime WTF) shows me that you have no clue. sure the 75% dmg reduction is nice (and No @your statement: afaik -> morale damage = true damage), but those are just 10 seconds instead of 30 seconds.
But lemme explain why overcapping makes sense (random numbers, but pretty close): We have 75% (softcap) at like 6k Armor. Now we have someone debuffing us for 1600 armor => we go down to ~40% Reduction for Armor here => 35% More damage received.
On the other hand, if we have 6k Armor + ~800 from a M4 and then get debuffed with 1600 again we will just go down to like ~65% armor -> 10% more damage. And since fights tend to take multiple minutes and not just a handful of seconds id ALWAYS prefer a 30second buff over a stronger 10 second one. But whatever.. i feel like wasting ressources when i try to read and answer to your posts. Like stated above - do not even try to respond to me personally since i simply dont care anymore about your posts.
You seems do not understant my perspective. The value of all of this it was like 65-75% only for "armor" there are even resistence in game and for those it's 40%:
As you even stated there are caps so the total reduction is not good as you think.
Hence armor and resistence +75% damage reduction are better than 30 sec of slighter buff.
Also i told moral push make a lot preferable have core moral 4 instead mid moral path. Core is a life saver, mid moral path not.
I alredy explined you why even 60 spam seconds are not good as 20 sec of better damage reduction.
--->"moral and burst".
Your suggested moral would be better if there were in game: less burst / more damage over long time / less heal
While it's the opposite: lot of burst/ insignificant damage over long time/ lot of strong heal ( crit and none).
The game and victory revolve around few seconds of push and balance break due to some skills in game, if you are able to counter those skill that's make the difference from a wb that can kill 3 party and 1 wb that can 2wbs.
This could be personal but i view the game as a close system so i cannot simply touch here and there. It need from my point of view a lists of things that are not in their spot and it need to know where i wanna go. They can even be fix 1 by 1 and then tested but i need to know where i wanna go, i think it's not possible just take bounch of things and then fix them randomly with out know where we are going, also change something had repercussions on other things. All is connected.BTT: There could and also should be made tons of minor changes all along. the stuff that i suggested was just something thats not too gamebreaking at all, but would still bring an increase in terms of healthiness in the tank-archetype, since obviously some things are more op than others. be it in durations or effects. The problem here comes through the buffs and debuffs offered through other archetypes (mdps/rdps). Like i shortly mentioned the WE m3. Sure kotbs has a nice crit buff, with pretty much perma uptime, but if you consider the IMMENSE burst a group gets offered through the M3 of a WE it someone evens out. Same surely applies for other examples as well, but thats another story.
Like Tenton (i believe he was it?) stated: Better some minor adjustments now in the early stage of the game, than having some big ass change later in t4, where everyone gonna rant about everything. People have to deal with the fact that the balance of War was mostly Sh*t and needs to be overhauled. And i just say you better now than later, so people can actually see how it plays out and tweak and tune the numbers over the way up to t4.
We also had some talk about SM AP drain in another topic, which i didnt mention in my first post, but thats just another example of a skill that can easily be tweaked without creating much of an inbalance in regard of other tanks.
What i personally would be interrested to see is a list of skills what you guys actually find OP or UP. And i mean no walls of text, but simply something like:
"Chosen - Quake: 3 seconds are imo too short!"
For exemple i think that touch the value of the resistences aura would had a bad repercussion for damage in game. PPl said they are op, for who? for chosen? Bo buff the same ammount, this mean that they were designed to be that way to counter aoe magic damage. and if 2/3 tank x realm have a way to buff resistences i think that i'am correct. Nerf aura will make chosen less preferable but will cause other issue, so it's not the way to go.
What i want? realm balance
how i achive that ? fixing stuff
have i to follow some way around game was build(1) or it's better keep it simple and fix at eye(2)?
1- i need to mirror things follow the original game pattern that even war dev didn't respect, so it's truly hard and i dont have completly pattern as BG/Kobs were introduced later and KOBS do not respect this patter (exemple)
2- freely change things just to keep things simple to achive some kind of better balance inside the realm but this will not make balance realm vs realm that it was the wya that game was originaly designed ( each realm have all/or similar ability other realm have).
I cannot accept the second choice so every time i suggest something i take in accout the repercussions and follow a list of fix not only 1 fix
Exemple:
if you change x you even need to change at least y or then z will became too good.
