PatchNotes7.11- Link

Pld little nerf
War buff
Mnk - whatever?
Sam - reversal of melee range - buff
Viper - buff, but why?
Mch - buff
Blm - small bufff
Smn - buff
Rdm - haha, nerf
Picto - fast caster now, buff
Ast - big nerf

I thought Viper was strong, but maybe I am wrong?!

I think most adjustments are based on forum feedback, so I think it is good and fast. So thumbs up SE.

Do I think it is less a of a slaughterhouse now, suitable for Ranked? No, not really. Would need big changes for that I guess. I often feel like I die by damage that is not even targeted at me specifically, like being snapshot by Ast or Whm aoe at max range. Not sure if people need more HP or better healing or better mitigation.

Small stuff.



Japanese posted on their forum something like Protect not getting applied to the WHM itself, if the dash is around an obstacle. Seems like that has been not addressed yet.
Or the abilities that stop their combo or effects, because they go into the void corpse of an enemy player (because they dodge it?), might be still be an issue?

Viper looks strong on paper but it's really not lol

F them RDM finally felt nice in PVP and i immediately get nerved AGAIN. They didnt care for MONTHS when Pala was ruining Onsai but that, nono, gotta patch immediately....

That's the one place it doesn't need help. Just be wary of SAMs (easier said than done but possible), MNKs... .. .. RPR LBs, DNC LBs, and you're fiiiiine. No really I'm not being sarcastic for once, its kit is a meme that works in mass PvP. Really quite well if you have the luxury of babysitters and/or not treated like a bounty target too much.

As for the OP, well it's already been said. You've likely only seen high damage from perpetually ignored vipers for the most part. The patch notes sure made me groan, and I have a couple quick tests to do while in-game but for the most part... yeah... it's not the most ideal change. Making -50% damage taken not drop during Blacklash would've been a great start tbh.

IDK about ranking, but i noticed CC felt a lot better, less like throwing wet sponges... it was the same when they initially changed pvp and introduced CC, RDM felt sweet and my LB actually killed stuff... until they nerved it.
