Please Fix Slaughter

[DracotheDragon]

one thing i have noticed on the PVP threads when you bring up the fact it is broken or point out premeds are causing th fights to become unfair the same 3 people scream WHINER ALERT and they normally go with the pre-mades to the point where they have a lot of wins, they are wining so hard it has locked other threads up because of it because they don't want to have a chance of losing there shallow victory,

Thats because, one: we're beating a dead horse. There are already dozens of threads about Slaughter being broken, and on top of this, no one has constructive criticism, its just "waaa! waaa! I keep losing! Slaughter sucks!" And two: the people that are whining about premades and slaughter in some cases are just lazy. Premades arent unfair, and if you're tired of losing to them make your own, and if you're not proactively trying to lead your team and expecting a win you dont deserve a comment because you arent even trying.

Thank you, exactly what I mean^^^

Premades are not unfair but I feel that the main issue is Cometeor-in-nearly-all-caster premades. My group does really well in Slaughter but it is still a problem that needs to be addressed.

Slaughter dont need just a few fixes, it basicly needs huge changes in almost every aspect you can think of. That game mode was announced as a big pvp update, but its clearly the most unbalanced pvp content i have seen for a long time. Its a huge messing up and feels like one of the devs did put it together in one day of work. I really enjoyed secure so far, because that does have some strategy in it, but sadly since they released the pre beta slaughter in 2.5 i havent got in any secure game so far. I was kinda adicted to pvp, played around 20-30 games a week, but i already stopped around two weeks ago. Because Slaughter requires zero strategy and is just a zergfest when it comes down to one point. I dont know, but in my opinion that looks like Square didnt really care about pvp at all. I know this is a pve game and thats fine, but if they want to include pvp they should care about it or screw it out of the game. The current status of pvp in this game is really bad.

Cometeor's biggest problem is that when its spammed there is little room for counter play, likewise melee LB has a similar issue. That the damage is so high, that most classes will be one shot leaving no room for counter play. A lack of counter play is bad for a competitive environment. What SE needs do change how both Cometeor and Raw Destruction damage works. Instead of full damage upfront, it can deal 50% direct damage and the other 50% damage takes the form of a DoT. That way the counter play is the DoT can be removed. If not you slowly die.

Both LBs will still be powerful but now players will have the ability to counter them.

My main problem is that even if I, or my friend, am out of cometeor by a long shot we still get hit by it. I haven't had this problem with any other instances. Does anyone else have this problem?

Yep I have the same problem. Even if I move out of cometeor mid cast I still get hit by it. I can sprint out of it and still get hit by it a couple seconds later. Afaik, cometeor is the only skill that does this. Its like there is a latency issue between the skill cast time and actual animation.

It's like old Titan fights. Whatever fix the performed on PVE duties, it looks like that didn't get brought forward into PVP.

I love it when I cast Cometor from beyond the grave, it's like the ultimate revenge when I die miscast but it goes off anyway.
