Wym, are you trying to say balancing solely around win rates is a bad thing? Surely there's no nuance to consider.Oh no, he does play the game.
He's just the face of the FFXIV development team, trying to play in a mode where people, upon recognizing him and his name (because names aren't hidden in CC), would likely focus target him hard for the sake of memes and internet clout.
So chances are, if he was otherwise unrecognizable, he probably wouldn't have had such a bad time, we wouldn't have had the massive overbuff to BLM, and he wouldn't have had to release statements deflecting accusations of favoritism, and run back some of those buffs like they did.
But, well, that's in the past, I guess.
In the meantime, I have a hard time believing the rationale behind some of their changes as of this last patch, and we suffer as they play around with the nerfs and buffs. But that's also normal, and they're not very good with subtlety, so expect to get rocked even more as the patches continue.
Bring in WoW developement team from Classic to Cataclysm and BDO development team to balance and fix pvp. Cause S.E likes being very casual and dont like "Conflict". They don't understand the clashing of skill and balances.
WHM is hardly as useful as people say. The imp is only really useful for securing a kill, which means you cast it on someone who is probably about to die anyway. Aside from that, WHM has the only real AOE heal which has to be triggered by taking a suicidal leap at an opponent and then they have their LB which is basically a KAME-HAME-HA which heals your teammates if they have the brain power to stand in the way of it, which they usually do not.
It's really no wonder WHM has such a bad W/L record in a team focused game mode where no one acts like a team.
What's the problem?Please take some time and play your own pvp mode before making any more balance updates. If you still think its ok..please put pride to the side and contract out from an experienced pvp development team. At this rate CC will not thrive 6 months from now. There is still time to fix this before interest dissipates and pvp goes back to being completely dead like it has been for years outside of frontline.
