Balancing issues in PVP

[Towa-Musa]

The game is balanced around team play... 1v1 duels are just for fun. Balancing around something so pointless would be an impossible task. Case in point, outside of the LB reapers are pretty whatever in CC, but they are basically the best 1v1 job in the game.

sounds like a skill issue.

I think I've misconstrued my main purpose of this post, my main complaint was that many classes have little to no survivability in PVP (not just duels) I was hoping to acknowledge this and maybe be heard by many. Some classes while balanced damage wise have many more options to keep themselves alive for longer periods of time, scoring them more kills and less deaths In PVP, which normally can help turn the tide of a match. If all classes had some way to keep themselves alive without heavily relying on the "Recuperate" ability I feel PVP in a whole would be much more enjoyable as it wouldn't be a race to see how quickly you can deplete the other person's MP but strategize while fighting in order to try and counter whatever move the other person may be using, whether that be some sort of lifesteal for a limited amount of time, a shield that absorbs damage, or anything of that caliber. I apologize for any confusion made by my post!

Personally outside of some niche cases like GNB and its garbage junction system limiting your options, I feel most of the jobs have sufficient enough ways to survive as long as you're paying attention and not throwing yourself blatantly into a situation where you are outnumbered.

Unless its just an outright steamroll by the other team I rarely die more than once. As long as you don't get tunnel vision and try to chase people all over the map and know when to back off, the tools available are more than enough.

They need to redo the entire thing from scratch. Which is sad because they just did that. They just did such an awful job that they have to do it again.

wtf? No they don't. The current system is a solid formula, it just needs some tinkering.

Diminishing returns on similar CCs is about the least I could ask for at this point.

There's just too much of it flying around for Purify to matter much, and you never know which one is going to precede your swift death so it never feels safe to hold off on using it.

Yes please I would like diminishing returns very much.

If they did this, all my issues with the RPR would go out the window.

They could remove one second out of most CC.

Alternatively they could also start by kneecapping miracle of nature something hardcore for starters.
