Regarding Non-participation/Taunting Behavior During PvP

"continue". They have to start, first lol.

Use whatever tools that are available. I am not encouraging you to use it per say but it is pretty clear this is something SE does not care about.

I have quit ranked CC and will never touch it again. But, for those looking to seriously climb the ladder, at this point all competitive integrity is non-existent. If you have to question whether or not the match was legit or not then the system has failed.

NIN can effectively kill someone if they catch them unawares in 5 GCDs if they don't guard or heal.

Assassinate > Mug > Bunshin > Three Mudra > Forked Raijin > Fuma Shuriken > Three Mudra > Fading Raijin > Hyosho Ranryu > Fuma Shuriken

Bunshin and Three Mudra are both OGCDs

If a NIN solos you faster than 5 GCDs they're using scripts.

Handle word, being solos.

"And for all we know they are aware and working on balance changes, but nothing is so broken in pvp that the devs would be forced to take the game down. There are bugs and imbalances but again it's been 2 weeks and only an armchair dev would say that's plenty of time to QA and release a balance patch."

An excerpt from reddit...

Especially watch out for it if they have LB. If they drop you below 50% and force you to guard, they can still execute you with Seiton Tenchu.

Balance isn't exactly the problem, it is like purify, guard and tickrate.

[Bureda]

What game are they playing? Because it's not Final Fantasy 14. Some dev got offended he was spammed nice job when he couldn't carry as a WHM or RDM?

The priorities are so out of wack. Lmao. WTF AM I READING.

I'm kind of curious to see what the patch will contain. Normally SE wouldn't touch balance midseason for the same reason they don't mess with it during the prog portion of a raid tier. But perhaps the response has been strong enough this time around they might make an exception..?
