    I'm even having trouble trying to make sense of what you are trying to say, something about melee LB?, but let me give you some tips:

    - Melee LB has a long cast time, you can make them WASTE their adrenaline bar by just moving a few steps away from them.
    - Melee LB is a single target attack.
    - Melee have to be infront of you like 3 steps from you to cast it.
    - You can use Scathe which is an instant attack to interrupt their LB.

    Hopefully these tips will help you improve as a player that is blalantly obvious is the one that doesn't know how to play the game correctly, or perhaps think more than a mindless thrall, seeing only flaws that affect them. Mind you, I don't even player a DPS class for PvP. Kek

    I'm not here to argue what's imbalanced or not, but you are kinda downplaying how good the melee lb is. Unless you have like no lag at all, it is literally impossible to dodge. I run like a crazy distance behind the guy and still get hit. It is definitely not 3 steps. It's basically a free kill, whereas you can at least dodge a caster lb especially when they slow it down with the hotfix.

    Plus the melee usually stuns before it, and a gap closer makes any distance negligible. It's a mechanic where someone less skilled can easily kill a skilled player for free, and that's not good for PvP.

    Both LBs need to be slowed down, as both dps LB are broken as hell.

    Yet it's not a AoE LB, you can't wipe a party or the majority of it with chain melee LB's, unless you have your oponents being played by dogs and have absolutely no reaction or awareness at all.

    Which is why both LBs need a nerf to their damage. The Aoe LB shouldn't be able to wipe a party, and the melee LB shouldn't be a skill balancer and a free kill for someone less skilled.

    Right? I'm glad that you agree with me not defending broken mechanics, I'm neither downplaying melee LB's but actually detailing what I do against melee's, as a ranged caster, this obviously doesn't apply with a melee against another closer range dps/tank. Unless you are of course one of those blms that for some bizarre reason decide to run into a group of players cast aetheric field and manage to make a run trip back home unscratched.

    So youre saying that coordination is killing you, well maybe if YOU DID THE SAME you can kill them before you, geesh its not like casters are teh only ones that should work together..... you have 3 dps with bars full? guess what, you just took out 3 healers, the dps will fall in seconds. Learn some basic strat before you call the nerf wagon.

    The caster LB isnt instant, and if your in the circle youre going to get hit, you can interupt a caster JUST like anotehr dps. Caster range isnt across the zone, you actually have to move in to use......which for most will get them killed, except the teams your on I bet so maybe you should ask them to nerf player ability instead because honestly it looks like thats your only issue. You can use scathe, stun, sleep, areo hell just look at a caster and hes interupted, im tired of explaining basic game principles to someone that has 0 clue how the game works.


    Yhe only reason casters get big number is because your team allows them too, do a better job and it wont be an issue.

    A bullet is not instant, but doesn't mean your reaction time is fast enough to dodge it, and the problem isn't even that it's one LB you are avoiding, it's a barrage of caster LB's. There's a delay in between your action appearing in your screen and it showing it in the ground, and you don't have to be in melee range to cast it, sorry.

    No, you said melee takes to long, which so does casting so your whole point is wrong.

    Dear lord just stop already, ive got you to the point where its not the lb itself but the coordination of multiple players, which if you have dps you CAN DO THE SAME THING.
