How the hell did you manage to get chaos gloves and still dont have razah? --Neil • 08:15, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Because Duncan and Frostmaw are my bitches. --BriarThe Spider 08:23, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Also DoA farming =/= DoA completion. Technically speaking I've only "Completed" DoA 3 times. And razah doesn't help me do that. So, fuck'im.--BriarThe Spider 08:25, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

What happened to my quotes on your wall of infamy? =(--TahiriVeila 22:46, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

I forgot that you said something of value. --BriarThe Spider 22:49, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Feedback

Though I'm sure Salome would appreciate your staunch approval, adding a comment unrelated to that Update – where you promote the banning of those who post off topic – is a poor irony at best. Then again, this cold has left me favouring dry humour. G R E E N E R 07:36, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Interesting.--BriarThe Spider 13:42, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Assassin use of secondary elites

The problem with assassins lies in the functionality of dual attacks and the addition os 1/2s attacks. Dual attacks are inherently overpowered as they allow players to strike twice with a single attack skill (which often deals 30+ armor ignoring damage per strike). 1/2s attacks build an incredibly large IAS into a skill allowing for bar compression and the rapid application of damage combined with accumulation of adrenaline. Unless those two functionalities are changed, assassins will continue to abuse their secondaries while rangers and warriors will have opportunities to abuse the assassin secondary.--TahiriVeila 17:19, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

I'm aware that assassin's are overpowered Jake. Thank you. --BriarThe Spider 17:21, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, you said you wished there was something that could be done to prevent sins from abusing secondaries. xD--TahiriVeila 17:25, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Aye, I do. But short of removing them from the game, I don't see what exactly can be done. Toughy ain't it? --BriarThe Spider 17:27, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

My choice would be to return them to a hit-and-run spiker/split role. Get rid 1/2s attacks (or at least increase the recharges on all of them to a minimum of 8), rebuff some of the spike-chain skills (like hoto) and some of the shadow arts elites. /shrug --TahiriVeila 17:29, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

That might work, But I honestly think the source of their overpowered nature stems from Critical strikes. Their energy management is almost as overpowered as the Old school soul reaping.--BriarThe Spider 17:32, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

The reason that sins abuse war secondary is that their current role is a pseudo-warrior: straight-up damage and disruption. Their skills are set up to work on similar principles to fill similar roles. In order to fix the real problem, sins need to not want to use warrior skills because sins won't want to fit into the warrior's role. Therein lies the big problem with assassins: they don't have their own role. As it stands, now, daggers might as well be a fourth warrior weapon (well, besides the energy costs, but you get the point).

So the deep-down solution is to give sins their own role and modify their skills to fit into that role. It would be a lot of work, both from design and implementation standpoints. But that's what needs to happen for sins to ever be really balanced. — Raine Valen 18:22, 8 Feb 2011 (UTC)

And we both know, especially with John's recent announcement not to do big skill updates anymore, that it will never happen. Karate Jesus 18:37, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

I believe enough has been said on the topic (Feedback page, not the above). Please let it be. G R E E N E R 10:56, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Just to be clear, is this "Stop talking to this person or I'll ban you" or "Please stop clogging up the feedback page?"?--BriarThe Spider 10:58, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

The latter. As for conversing with the other contributor, use the wisdom I know you have and give me no cause to consider the former. Yes, this also includes the conversation on Embark Beach. G R E E N E R 11:02, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Funny you should mention that, I was just contemplating a way to be a jerk and not break NPA for that very page. :D Thanks for clearing that up. --BriarThe Spider 11:05, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

I

Am toying with the idea of Deleting my Mesmer (because I'm sick of DoA) and Creating another assassin, Female this time. Because I like assassins.

Thoughts? --BriarThe Spider 03:02, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
