Q: “You know this dampening meta has a lot of players upset… the chief complaint is that players can obtain PvE gear that bolsters their defensives for 0 reason and makes them unkillable. What ever shall we do about this?”
A: “REMOVE absorb gear and instead make it do DAMAGE it’ll be way faster paste and the players WILL LOVE IT. They WANT their gear playing for them. They just want FASTER PASTE let’s just make the gear do damage instead of dampen! Genius!”
Yes please make it dry faster. I hate slow paste, runs everywhere and makes a mess.
if i dont get my paste allotment in about 30 minutes i’m gonna freak
This is what people asked for. You guys asked for classes, even, and honestly especially, Plate, to die quicker. As it was apparently unfair to you, for immobile classes to be tanky. So you got what you asked for. This current meta is on you guys. 
Literally no one asked for corruption 45% power swings, stop being disingenuous. It just makes you look stupid
Yea guys because of you, jawahs crucible of storm tank items were pruned and nerfed to the ground and now he cant find any enjoyment (free rating) from this game.
YOU SHOULD ALL BE ASHAMED.
My god you are dumb…
To be fair, pushing rating wasn’t really fun either.
Well, maybe some of the time it was. Fighting comps like TSG, Turbo, Hero, those were fun matchups. Nothing was fun about playing into Double Fire/Resto, or Destro/Fire/Resto, or RMPally, etc. Even if we won, it wasn’t worth the awful experience. So glad my final match was against Turbo.
I seem to specifically remember people asking for a high DPS meta, where people could die outside of offensive CDs on a regular basis.
Yeah, from class abilities that can be countered or stopped. Not stupid passives that you have to be lucky to get to drop on your gear. Not sure why you have a hard time seeing the difference.
Yes because after a decade of people saying they hate PvE gear breaking arena they in fact were asking for PvE gear to break arena
So every class should have a GPyro? I see. Interesting. Gear shouldn’t matter, it should only be your spells and abilities that determine your DPS. Got it.
Having class abilities outside of massive cooldowns doing damage is important. Making sure the damage comes from buttons pressed so there’s counter play is important. People want that. People don’t want an 80k bleed that can proc off anything or enough random versatility that your damage goes up by 40-50% for no reason.
How do you interpret this from what anyone else is saying man, I’m actually bewildered… I want to try to understand your point of view so I can maybe have a sensible discussion but I’m struggling to relate to your mindset here.
The game doesn’t need player power coming from random procs/buffs both defensively and offensively. That’s simply all people are asking for. Crucible gear is just as stupid as corruption, why does it have to be one or the other when we haven’t really had anything this extreme in many expacs, and even in the xpacs with massive PvE item outliers character power was still incredibly high.
Yeah that’s obviously what I said. Quit being so dense.
ITT: Jawah defending crucible and justifying his meteoric rise to r1 ret paladin NA… pt 120930129381029831023879
you whispered me after beating me in 2s like 4 days ago so im gonna down vote this post
So you want templates back.
Just a heads up you might wanna take the cuss word out if the title so u don’t get band.
How do you get I want templates from corruption is horrible?
Because until we have templates again, PvE gear will always be useful in PvP again. And as long as PvE gear is in PvP, PvE gear will always have some difference, whether overall being stronger or weaker, than PvE gear.
