If the power buff means double damage.Originally Posted by Raif
Still waiting for the screens... I call BS.
And the war who hit me for 2.7k happened to grab one that game.
Then that might have been a 5.4k hit instead of a 2.7k.
However even though it was said on these forums those buffs do double damage, I think it is quite a bit less than double.
TL;DR
Switching to a different profession is no different than starting a new role at 50, Easily learned. Might as well start at Rank 1 PvP on PvP servers.
Also, the tab targeting needs to be fixed with two things.
1.) It has no real selected cycle through the enemies in los, it goes randomly through them, it also prioritizes pets.
2.)It will sometimes tab through, say, 2 pets 6 times (meaning three rotations for two pets) while enemies that are players are in los, it will do this for player targets too (targeting is random with no kind of tab rythm/cycle/order to go through almost full teams of enemies in los). Give players numbers before their names depending on where they are located at in their raid, and let all people know and see these numbers, and tab cycles through those numbers in order to all enemies in range. Then pets if no players are in range.
3.)I also think minor obstructions that shouldn't, do play a role in who you can tab target, which adds up with the previous problems making it become complicated to target at times.

Thank you for pretty much fixing the nearest target button, it's noticeable.
Actually 2 of them, including Gershowitz.
True, but doesnt change the fact that 4533 with no overkill is still a hard hit. Granted, we have established this is only Pyros, other Mages are fine, however I guarantee if I found a soul that would do even half this damage with 51 points in it I would take it.
I play a Cleric mostly and if we choose an offensive build and put 51 points in it, we would be giving up our ability to heal. Yet we still only hit for 400-700 and lose heals, so whats the point really? I would rather heal and do 100 less damage than give all that up for a little more damage. I am not sure why these other classes are getting 51 point one shots, nor do I really care. The fact I can kill someone with a spoon while others are using knives is something I enjoy.
Even so, I just think this is a bit much in terms of damage. Starts feeling like a FPS with no tactfulness when things are dropped in 1 hit. Id rather wait for Ghost Recon to come out if I want that kind of gameplay.
I'm pretty sure that in order to achieve these obscene numbers the mage would have to go for 51 pt pyro, 5 pts archon, 5 pts offensive archmage, with the last 5 spent wherever. Not a high-survivability build. In addition, he'd have to stand in Ground of Power (no GoS), which spells insane vulnerability. The mage would also need the wings buff, have cast firebolt first, and of course filled his charge bar. To top that off, you'd have to have one or several +magic damage debuffs.
In other words, reaching such insane numbers requires far, far more setup and stars aligning than anything that would make it serve a practical purpose.
The op said he never saw a blast charge hit for 3-4k well on deepstrike i get hit by 3-4k blast charges all the time.Matter of fact 2.5k is about average and i have seen 4.3k was the most.
I definitly would never cry about it or nothing just letting you know that you will see around 4k blas charges when you fight a geared sabo
