The genius idea "Mind Squasher"

If any one disagrees with me I will ms you. To protect my kin, of course.

If MS is removed, what is the point of the blunt skill tree? No lvl 60 weapons apart from those outdated 2 handed weapons or a decent dmg spell. Even the crit buff was merved to a hardly playable short duration.

Pretty much no point, apart from strength passive. The other trees have nice attack spells, but let's be honest, forceful blow is a pile of crap that barely anybody skills.

Loque - "People use MS because it's simply such an overwhelming spell that gives the greatest satisfaction among all the other spells and everybody loves to get high on that aspect".
This may go for some, but not everybody. I genuinely find it useful. There's no point playing a game if you're not playing it for the right reasons.

I receive just as many MS's as you would, but I'll still defend it because it's a spell, as a knight, I depend on while pb is unreliable.





All that being said,



MS and I have a love/hate relationship.

remove the ability to totally remove buffs and like was mentioned put a time on each level for effect.

Game would be boring without MS. There need to be a counter to hard targets. And there need to be dangers, even too a well supported barb. God mode is dull.

The spell is good as it is.
With its 50% chance on lvl 5 and current RNG +much loger cooldown since one of past updates its not spammed.

The problem is the class numbers imbalance at forts among realms.

Recently i just LOL/cry seeing alsius big group of archers and mages helplessly trying to kill a group of red knights and few ammy barbs with conju support at aggy. Seriously i was only one knight in a group and nobody even bothered to wait for my aura.

Use brain, team work instead of crying. Can't do team work?-play single player games.

When last friday i logged barb and saw we got many dual wielding killers online but no support knight i relogged knight cause it was needed.

And yes, we got few players in each realm who are divas/self proclaimed heroes with ego as high as Himalayas/pets simply juicy targets. What i have learned from forum during past few years is that this bunch of "rock stars" constitute vast majority of these who always complain nerf nerf, buff buff because "i cant be OP all the time as some random guy managed to MS me and this stupid conju cast life saviour on that noob instead supporting me - a demi god 24/7 and i was killed instead farming my X-rps a day"

Absolutly agree with you.
See at other trees:
slash has SC - barbs spamming it every 10s and doing really insane dmg in combo with berserk and fulmi.
Pierce tree - people can use range attacks and "use" position bugs/lags to do 8m kicks and such things.

Both that trees can use nice OP legendary 1h weapons in dual wield.
Dual wield vs two-handed need to be fixed too but it is diff story.
Where is 1h hammers or maces for lvl60 batbs? There are only for knights. Best hammer u can have is wm one or new tk one - but there u cant get such bonuses as on swords and spears.

So i think there is balance in that three trees and every tree gives you other type of gameplay and it is good. I want to see more diversity in setups and gameplays.
It will be really boring for me if i fight against barbs and all will buff same and only spam SC and calling for mana on their conjus or kicking me from 8m and hit me 3times before i can get to them.

My view is from barbs side only because it is my main class and i dont have any knights.

[Kiraflax]

u can improve the blunt tree in another aspect. thats logical. and warrior just has too many buffs especially barb

[Awrath]

Or, bring back old dispel that used to remove all buffs too. MS with range!!

99% sure this has nothing to do with pierce.

It is still just a mere 40 second CD, so theoretically every time you cast berserk you can cast MS.
Even if it is a 50% chance, you don't lose anything if it fails. You still deal 100% damage at the cost of a little bit of mana.
However if it does work, you will deal a massive hit and permanently remove all buffs on that target until they come off CD, and when they come off CD you can probably go for another MS.

The spell needs to be adjusted/replaced with something balanced.
