Nerfing of my build!

I use Mind wipe, Beserk Stance for Sword build... Mind wipe doubled in delay and requires casting, Beserk Stance stops all regen, and now all my sword skills take 5 times longer to use. When nerfing, do you look at anyone elses deck or just see what I'm playing? I was having fun.. hundreds of hours making this design and you spend 5 minutes to make it worthless. I went from being one of the best to now struggling versus one npc monsters.
You make me suck because you can't see the obvious. This is beyond reasonable... This has gone personal.

 

Lol or you have a gift for finding the most broken / unbalanced skills and wreaking havok with em

That or Chris hates you. Either way, well done. lol

 

lmao

 

It's great to have you here!

 

"We hates him, my precious!" -@Chris

 

The next question would be whether this change was made by evil Chris, fire Chris, or vanilla Chris.

 

Also, I hope Chris continues to focus in on the top 1% to balance out the game. Seems like a good approach to me.

 

Are there any other swordsmen experiencing this?

The patch notes make no mention of changing the cast time on these glyphs.

@Attenwood @Chris is this a bug or intentional? Why does it take 5 times longer to cast melee glyphs now? Ranged glyphs are instant.

 

trust me Turin. i feel your pain. and it always feels personal. i cant build anything without getting nerfed into oblivion.

 

I designed my guy with Beserk Stance, Sword Skills and Mind wipe.. all those skills took Major Nerfs. Mind wipe takes 3 times longer and can now be interupted, Beserk Stance now stops Regenration and Sword attacks take 5 Times Longer to use. Not small changes.. major major changes, all focused on me. Sure.. great job fixing things they designed after the 100 hours I put in making those skills work.

 

check your PM's

 

Of all the Very Heavy Nerfing to Me Personally, the 5x longer to use my sword skills is the real killer. 5x nerfing.. thats too much and everyone knows you cant call 5x slower attack a nerf, that's a butchering.

 

Actually, I check your playstyle, and go the opposite way, knowing the NERF MAELSTROM is nigh upon ye, while I'm safe in noobdoom for months weeks days hours to come!

 

mind wipe IS slower. ...not sure what's he's talking about with the slower sword skills, though, and i don't use stances to compare, but this looks like a bug.

 

Ugh. I hope if there is an actual issue, it isnt ignored by the sheer annoyance of that thread. Nothing like wasting the dev's time more then needed.

 

Ahhh so I see what you were upset at when I saw you in game. Truly sorry about that. Probably so many more changes are still coming though man. I don't think we can count on things staying the same. There will be changes and after having been here for over 3 years I can say that for every time I thought it wouldn't work out it did or still will. I am still very confident it will. Sometimes I didn't have the whole picture in my mind and things didn't make sense until later when I saw more of the picture. The best we can do is remember where we are and be good to each other, give examples and remember it is not done and your feedback is valuable too. It can be frustrating sometimes doing this but it is important work and everyone is working so hard on this game and we are helping giving our time and thoughts and feedback. *cheers* and wishing you well.

 

Yeah and we needed three different rage posts to narrow down a possible bug.
Yay? Communication +?

 

Nah man, im a backer. Basically i can kick, scream and waste as much of their time as I want. If i was to nicely put the issue out for them to fix, it would be to easy and might actually be too productive. Theres clearly not enough garbage to cycle through as there is.
Lol..
