Hotfix incoming!

My first 72 Slaughter Post Cometeor adjustment.

(Scoreboard showing just Flames)
edited: removed photo, will link if requested, but would rather not broadcast the premade's names as it may look like flaming or something.
case in point, 6 casters with 15+ kills each, 1 with 27 or some crazy number.

So as many predicted, nothing's change.

I'd like to point out as soon as I saw the first AOE marker I looked at the scoreboard. It was 4/4/16 when the first LBs were cast (before LB kills were calculated). Flames had 16 kills when adder/mael only had 4 each.

Is that a lot?

Basically, they all had fever for the whole match... or at least, up until the end.

Honestly, I love to PvP and all but if all I have to deal with in Frontline is being slept or bound and having 5 LBs tossed out every time, it's just not fun by any means. I'd like to play Secure instead but people seem to prefer Slaughter for the moment due to the quicker games and easier marks.

I would be better if they explained how their queuing system works. If I get faster queues doing roulette, I would do that, but I'm too scared about getting stuck in a 1h long secure match that would never start, so I just queue for slaughter right now, which only makes the issue worse since everyone else is doing that.

If they came out and said roulette does give faster queues and explain why then I would switch over. Until then I don't trust their system one bit.

Roulette takes forever compared to just queuing for Slaughter. Tried it a few times and got stuck in queue while my LS got into several slaughter games.

That should change when (if?) they add PvP experience to the roulette rewards.

doing a premade with lots of BLMs is not against the rules but I think they're exploiting the situation.

[zeopower6]

Of course it's not against the rules~ (neither was the SMN/SMN DPS situation in WD)

But it's not really fun to play against teams that are basically all casters and cast their LBs one after another.

You can always join the darkside (non-slaughter que-ers) lol

I refuse to do the pvp roulette or slaughter until they fix it, but from the look of things it seems to be working as they intended. I may just get my ADS mount and bail on PvP in this game altogether if something doesn't change. I can barely stay alive as a WAR in full VIT build as is with all the LB spam in slaughter as is :/

Ok... doing a 72 person Slaughter match showed me the problem.

One or two Black mages casting Cometeor? Not that big of an issue. When it's seven or eight it gets into the extreme. It's just not as fun when you have multiple BLMs camping the landing area with Adrenaline rushes.
