Remove Sprint from PVP please, thanks!

[Omagana]

Sprint should definitely be removed or reworked in PVP (and PVE tbh). Healers aren't the only magic class benefiting outrageously from it...it's bad enough that long animation melee abilities cancel out on a target moving at normal speed never mind sprinting. I've been playing my summoner a lot in PVP because it's a total face roll to disease/dot and sprint all the time.

If you want to moan about the survivability of healers, that's a separate issue and I'm not saying it isn't an issue. They shouldn't need spirit in the first place.

Edit: Also, every class but tank gets owned just as quickly if piled.

As a WAR who doesn't use sprint, I'm glad sprint is usable. Otherwise, I would be absolutely demolishing the healers. It helps balance it out.

Thank you for using your brain and being able to see how things balance out for different classes.

Casters cast times make most of their spells useless in PvP. Sprint helps balance out cast times and super low AC. You expect them to just stand there while you two-shot them?

caster use tp for sprint and safe all his mp to cast.......a meele need to use tp for sprint/follow the healer and have 0 point to attack

unbalance

meele need to use his point he needs for his attack to follow this sucks

It's not an unbalance. You're just crying because you don't like it, that doesn't make it unbalanced. melee have all kinds of tools to interrupt and stop runners. Use them!

I don't need to use my brain regarding casters, as most of them with a good pt are getting stuff off just fine and have no need to use sprint every time its up.

The issues I see day to day with unorganized and zero communication PuGs are healers getting left unsupported as the other PT immobilizes that healer's 3 members going after their protected healer. This results in less than 2 min matches with the opposite team having all 4 members alive.

You act like casters are the only ones fending for themselves. I'm a Bard, range is my friend, however I am still squishy, have limited defensive tools against melee and have to rely on my team and using my brain.

PVP requires teamwork, its not a duel.

As a warrior, i find it frustrating to try to keep a healer or BLM in check. The fact that every 10 seconds or so they can use sprint, and with the horrible hit detection in this game, half of my skills wont even land on them. Makes it nearly useless to try to fight a caster, so I end up trying to play protect the healer against 1 tank and 2 DPS

True. I play PLD and BRD in PvP and you are squishy :P But you also have no cast times. I don't see you point on the 2 min runs though. If you are doing a PUG and don't strategize then you kind of deserve what you get. It is a good thing that groups that plan have a better chance of winning. I still am of the mind that the pros and cons to casters in PvP (sprint being one of them) is pretty even with everything else and the other jobs.

Why? You can sprint too. You have invigorate as a monk. As a war I use enliven so I can chase down a whm, stun em and whack em. You can get that too so you can sprint even more.

[Rightchaus]

Increasing damage taken while sprinting in pvp would balance it out.

Don't forget Icarus Wings! With so many coming free from that one quest at the moment, they tend to be very cheap on AH.
