Immortal healers

[Harka12]

You need to queue with friends or actually direct your team of randoms rather than call for a role to be nerfed. Gameplay problems require gameplay fixes. Teamwork problems require teamwork fixes.

So you suggest for me to que with friends, or the random pvp is unplayable because the healers without hard focus not going to die, wut? How do you want to direct a player who kill the paladin rather then healer while both of them near each other? We usually mark the healers and ask the team for focus, still nothing.

I've done it before. Its actually not that hard if you put some effort into it. I use text macros all the time in frontlines.

Kill orders. Flags. Markers. Specific commands. Specific targets. Orders to press. Orders to retreat. Sound effects. They all go a long way in frontlines.


Nine times out of ten people are running around like chocobos with their heads cut off because they don't know what to do.

I see you try to help me glad to it, thanks. Still, in my opinion the developers should to make the gameplay fun, not i should to struggle with headless chocobos for some focus/team work.

Then what you want is to revert to 3.0 PvP. Or at least an increased skillset beyond the 9 button mash.

Dunno what it was like, i play less then 2 months ago, but i saw videos. Imo the old system was far better then this primitive 6 button spam. But as you can see, no matter what the developers do to make the game easier, the most player still cant use it properly. Anyway i would like healer nerf, not fun at all that they can tank down 2-3 dps from your team alone.

I played 11 years of World of Warcraft PvP, and i was kinda good 4 months ago on rated arenas(like feast) and rated battlegrounds(like frontline on rated difficulty), so dont think im a fool who cant use his own job and came here to cry for unwise nerfs.

But then people might play it and we couldn't treat PvP like a meme anymore.

Personally, I can only encourage you to find a different game for PvP. This game's PvP is notoriously bad and as a result, notoriously dead and that's unlikely to ever change, because the developers have their priorities all wrong from the ground up. The fact that they want to sell this game's PvP as an E-Sport tells you all you need to know, really.

And for healers, well...
"[...] nobody will want to play as a healer, if they aren’t that strong."

No point even bothering when that's the priority on his mind.

Thanks for your post Yeah, i dont think just because i started a post something going to change, but this is the reason i not going to play if my last 7 day goes off. The main story questline, and the colorful amount of content this game have is just beauty and amazing, compared to World of Warcraft, but i not going to play raids and dungeons because i not like to fight against computer.

Just be clear, the pvp is dying atm, at late night u have to wait 20-30 min sometimes for a single game? The other problem the reward system, on Stormblood you not really have any mmo-like reward which gave us some progress for doing pvp and upgrade our characters. The old pvp what i saw on youtube where we have the pve-like abilitys should be far better for pvp then this...

So seems like im done with this pvp.
