Please nerf summoner in PvP.

Esuna/Leeches is almost impossible to interrupt

I have noticed this as well. It's not really about the speed of the skill but the lag. You see the cast bar way way late compared to when they began casting it in reality. I hardly even see esunas and leeches, often I find even a cure getting through even though the cast was only half way done on my screen when I stunned or hit with other direct damage. I am honestly surprised that the positional updating works as well as it does in pvp but it's still a far cry from near perfection. There's nothing more frustrating than whacking a skill endlessly just to see the animation begin and end midway because of magic.

Lag in an mmo? Preposterous!

This is very, very false. If you know they're casting it that means you have them targeted. If you have them targeted that means you're CCing them or DPSing them. Both of which interrupt casts. How could you not be quick enough to interrupt them? Are you using some attack with a 10 second cast?

The only way you're interrupting a cleanse is with an auto attack or it just so happens to line up with your global.

Of course they can't cast if they're cc'd, but the cleanse spells fire so quickly they're almost impossible to actively interrupt.

I keep hearing from casters 'The 100% interrupt rate makes it too hard, fix please' and from melees 'Caster free sprint makes it too hard, nerf please'. People just need to take time to come up with better strategies/gear up/get some new PVP abilities. It really shakes things up. Do something different than 'zerg the healer ' people don't tend to expect it.

It also really helps to have a preformed party so that you can communicate well.

Auto attack on 2m cd or something?

[Zabuza]

This right here is a outright refusal to admit that you aren't as good as you think. The sooner you accept that you aren't good at pvp, the sooner you can attempt to fix it. I guess you'll keep pointing the finger though.



They were using it. It suffers DR like anything else, like I said it's a learn to play issue on you and your teams part.

Please oh wise one teach me how to be better against a double SMN comp with my one gap closer that is on a 30 second cooldown vs nonstop slows and binds.

Edit: Just noticed you have a level 50 summoner, nevermind.

Eight classes in the game, and if someone has one specific one to fifty you will have that attitude?

as a lvl 50 summoner i joined a pvp and people have lernd to split the second they see a summoner and go after me and the healer and due to the interruptions per every hit it is actually easy to take us both down with some good teamwork but i can see when some say swift cast res's can be a pain but if they nerfed that then people would complane outside of pvp, which brings a interesting question to yoshi how can he "balance" a class then when touched everyone gose psyco, i can see a fix being
removing swift cast from summoners in pvp, that means to bring someone back were a sitting target that can be interrupted for nearly 10 seconds.

when i hear people complane about classes in PVP it reminds me of dark souls before everyone cried to nerf every weppion in the game and when they did they cried about the game being to hard due to the nerfs before everyone just accepted the idea of it and adapted

as for 3 summoner groups maybe they could stop duplicate classes or something o3o;

[Farrell]

Monks should be happy with the nonsensical buffs they got. Instead they come on here and ask for nerfs on other classes. If video games has taught me anything it's ppl that pick melee are usually the whiny ones. Want to look like badasses while having things handed to them. Seen it in sooo many games.

[Zelfarion]

Summoner also has the highest burst in the game. The class is too well rounded and applies too much pressure and damage for the insane support it brings.

Ehh I dont know where you got this info from but this isnt true. Summoner is a stream dmg class NOT a burst class. They are the best AoE stream dmg class in the game.

Dragoons have the highest burst/spike dps in the game. Monks are the highest single target dps class. and Black mage is the highest aoe burst dps class.

I just had to inform about this. cause when it comes to single target burst Summoner doesnt stand a change in terms of sheer dps against a dragoon or a monk. I mean heck even a black mage is better in terms of dps. But summoner are more aoe stream dps. so continious dmg is what they are built to do.

I mean look at all them dots and dot buff skills.

But yeah they shuld get nerfed in pvp since they can woop the ass off everyone when played correctly.

That is all.
