So you are having trouble dealing with a legit build, call it cheating and demand it be “banned”.

Good luck with that.

They said PvP would not be fair so deal with it.

‘Nerf X it killed me in PvP’ is why it never caught on with me.

There are so many broken builds with mechanics not working as intended atm. If they ban them, what one do you want gone next. There’s no ladders in the 1st 2 seasons for a reason. Take a deep breath. By S3, we can then hold the dev’s feet to the fire with balancing & broken mechanics.

Game isn’t balanced for pvp nor should it be aside from the cosmetics you will never use theres 0 reason to do pvp.

Sounds like you’re mad because bad.

I would much rather have them spending the time on new classes and content. Every time I go into the FoH looking for all the bad a** PvP players I never see them. Don’t waste anymore time with PvP in D4.

“As players go through the system, it’s not designed to be fair,” Piepiora explains. "This is not a duelling system. That’s not what Fields of Hatred are, you know? Fields of Hatred are murder grounds; this is not a place for honour.

“Outplaying your opponent, evading attacks at the right time, using your potion, and outlasting your opponent and their potion count make a big difference. Getting a drop on an opponent makes a big difference, too - while they’re fighting in an event or trying to deal with a boss. Those all make big differences. This is the nature of living and dying inside the other Fields of Hatred.”

Regarding how Blizzard plans to balance PvP, the Diablo 4 team has little doubt players will discover potent skill and item combinations that’ll likely need tuning. That said, no one wants to nerf the fun.

“What we don’t want to do is balance the fun out of the situation or make you feel significantly less powerful when you go into these environments,” Piepiora says. “So we are careful to ensure that if you are overpowered in the PvP environment, you are fighting other overpowered PvE or PvP enemies as part of this.”

Piepiora goes on to explain that the team isn’t “trying to design PvP as a balanced experience in the Fields of Hatred in particular”. That’s because it’s not a traditional matchmade activity where you face off against multiple other players, with bosses and other demons to consider.

There you go, you are now educated, do with this information what you will, it won’t be changing anytime soon.

its fine as soon as there are multiple builds doing crazy stuff, but there is just one, on season 1 and pre season there were at least 4-5 doing good…now noone can beat orb, and its not about being bad or good, if u play light orb in pvp you are definitely not good…
they said they will bring down strong builds and they did and istead they made new ones much more broken…

Sounds to me like you arnt playing PvP, sounds to me like you are playing PvM and going into PvP fields in a PvM build which isnt how PvP works. Maybe you should just stay out of PvP fields.

I managed to beat several of them as Infinimist necro.

Dont chase after them let them be impatient and jump into dot on ground they die in a second. There are also video on YT with shadowsurfer build that evaporates people too.

But it depends if the other is optimized for PvP then in PvM setup its hard.
Stuff like dont go over cap of armor/crit damage etc. etc.

jesus sounds to you, wtf im playing pvp from preseason, got pvp spec killing all other builds, man just stop with those bs…

@Samtarios

I read a lot of words there that did not make any coherent sentences. Care to try again because I didn’t understand a thing you were trying to say. Also how are you playing preseason? Season 2 is going on right now…Do you mean eternal realm? If you are in a PvP spec and still unable to kill a ball lightning sorc it sounds like you dont know how to PvP.

Just like before season 1 people cried about HoTa barbs 1 shotting people and they still do you are just here crying about a build you don’t know how to defeat. But I cant wait to see you in PvP fields so I can kill you also with my ball light sorc. :rofl:

so u are dumb, i see, pls dont respond anymore, your opinion is useless, what u dont understand about “from pre season” it means i play pvp from patches before season…dont compare orb sorc with hota barb, dps in pvp of orb sorc and hota barb pre season are no way near…the only way to kill orb sorc is shoot it from distance, up close no matter if u have 80% light resist and everything into dmg reduction and close dmg reduction u die in 2s…393 posts, so you are forum troll who needs to question everyones post…

Coming in here complaining about getting killed in pvp, then calling people “dumb” for calling out your lack of skill or whatever is so precious.

Don’t worry…you’ll be ok kid.

I mean they are actively nerfing busted builds, specially druid ones lol that class is a joke compared to others now

To be fair, if the game was remotely balanced for PvE it probably wouldn’t be as bad in PvP. Speaking as a ball lightning sorc, it’s painfully obvious that the build is busted beyond belief compared with other builds.

Couldn’t agree more, and people think ladders will force them to balance the game, this dev team has produced broken build after broken build with no sight of balance and it’s gonna be done in 2 months? Lol

Not a ball lightning player, but what is with the obsession with balance? The build looks like a lot of fun. Also banning a skill from pvp is kinda odd, why not just ban all skills? Then you can run around and basic attack each other to death really slowly.
