[dev1049] Petition - Make entropy stronger

[Natasha]

If they can it'll be with a real crappy scythe, they have much better choices on GS....Are the new WS's based on combat skill?

How do you mean? They require a skill of 357 to merit them if thats what you mean.

Resolution has been tested to have an attack penalty of approximately -40%, ensuring it won't be used versus anything but the weakest fodder.

Already aware of this information, it still pulls ahead by a good margin on lower def. mobs and for higher def. mobs GS has torcleaver.

Even barring torcleaver, GS still has spinning slash and ground strike against high def. mobs.

I'm not a 95 drk but I pay attention. Am I the only person who likes that the tables were turned after GSD lived in the trash can for years?

1. no you're not the only one, but prolly not in the majority. 2. GS was never in the trash, spinning slash was always useful. 3. why would you want scythe to suck? I can see no reason not to want them both to be strong.

Not well however.

The new GS WS is kinda terrible too. I was just skimming BG but apparently it has some sort of Attack penalty.

I honestly hadn't looked at the GS merit WS that closely, but my god. Seems like SE is just wasted yet more time that could have been spent elsewhere.

Why make a yet another tier of WSs, this time making them absolutely gorgeous; but then peppering them with reasons for the players to not bother with them? Christ!!!

As a player whose first (and only) 75 is Dark Knight, I would dearly love to see a Scythe weapon skill that puts Guillotine to rest. I love me some Guillotine, but the level 99 weapon skill should make it look like a paper cut.

Again, 200% for this petition.

However, people keep making arguments that 1 should be stronger than the other, and that Resolution and Entropy shouldn't have the same damage. I still believe they should be the same in damage. If they are, it'll give people that play DRK a real choice in using the type of weapon they love the most; instead of being forced to use 1 weapon over the other because it's clearly better. Make them equivalent so that people can start doing what they want to do and not be ridiculed by everyone else.
