Heal Packs need to be better..

[crazyangle03]

I'm really disappointed that you need to step on the packs before you get healed, there's a lot of instances (PVP/PVE) where i was stepping on it but it didn't get me healed and i died..

before i was thinking its just latency issues but after i got myself a new internet (260..Green Ping) this situation still happens everyday..... -_-

is it possible that the Pick up Radius will be increase like 3-5 yards or so (or just increase the pick up radius in packs)... it really sucks when you need to step on in..

Packs are glitches. Sometimes they don't even drop yet your cool down is going! A larger radius would lead to lots of false pick ups too! I just want the packs drop glitch addressed!

The glitch has something to do with skills doesn't appear at all when charged. To solve this just add half second after charging then you can release the skill. This has been addressed to support since last year but they still working on it.

Well...the only ways I can pwn a rogue in 1v1s are:
1. Hope to kill the rogue before he/she reaches the health packs.
2. Hope the health packs don't work and I get a lucky crit.
So...I'm kinda hoping this won't be fixed! :)

Once I see a rogue reach their health packs I pull back and force them to either heal or follow me. HPs are nice in the aspect u can have you're heal cooling down while not using you're heal. Due to this I think health packs are balanced and because rogues have some minor healing skills outside of health packs.

Also, the annoying fact that sometimes a charged skill will not fire is especially frustrating in PvP.

[drgrimmy]

A couple points:

Sorcerers heal also frequently enough fails in PvP to be annoying. Especially with charged lifegiver.

Despite your improved ping it may still be due to delay between when you actually die and when you see yourself die. I can't tell you how often I see the green rings of lifegiver casting around my dead body when I am lying on the floor. It begs the question: how does a dead sorcerer cast a spell? Again although I typically have an excellent connection, ping does vary, and even with an excellent ping there is probably enough delay that you are dead on the server but appear alive on your device and are able to still cast a skill or run over a health pack even though you are already technically dead.

Also, aren't rogues already strong enough in PvP? I think things are pretty balanced for now. It seems to me that there has to be some tradeoff for a rogue having excellent killing ability, able to frequently one shot enemies. I think that it is only reasonable the the defensive/healing skills of the rogue are somewhat weaker.

Not really a glitch, its when opponent stuns you as soon as you release your finger

Not really a glitch, its when opponent stuns you as soon as you release your finger sometimes it happens in an open space too, without anyone attacking you.

Honestly the heal packs are really op if u think about it. They can lay them down before the fight even starts and the cool down is already ticking, unlike wars and mages, where they usually use it when the hp gets below 75%. Kinda annoying when a rouge can charge a killing shot AND run to save their puny life.

Wolf is right, its so damn annoying. They get to be killers AND healers? Wtf?
Ive had the same problem as grimmy, I usually heal as soon as I die :( not to mention the stupid 2 seconds for the shield to pop up can just aabout kill me.
Rogues need weaknesses...

Even though we get the CD and the shoot and heal advantage, the packs are useless if youre stunned or 80% slowed by shiloh, an advantage for a disadvantage. Also the other two classes have 2sec invulnerability, so dont you think its fair?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and try and answer for Onestrike... because she doesn't feel like respecing for 5plat everyday depending on whether a nice pve group is available or she just wants to pvp?

Also (it's been mentioned before by thoughtful developers) the problem with increasing the pick up radius is that sometimes those packs get bunched together. We don't want to pick up 2 packs when we only meant to pick up 1. That's the difficulty in increasing the pick up radius. How often do packs get bunched together for you? It happens to me all the time.

Sorcerer's and warrior's heals are also useless when you are stunned too as you cannot cast them! Hmm and 2 sec invulnerability, many may dissagree, but I personally don't think that it really makes that much of a difference. A good rogue will sneak up on me and kill me before I even have my shield up, or will just wait for the invulnerability to wear off if my shield is already up. For a bad rogue, hmmm, I often dont even need to put up my shield to kill them. Nevertheless, all classes have their strengths and weaknesses. I think things are pretty balanced and fair as they are. I think buffing the health packs for rogues would tip things too far in favor of the rogues. You cannot deny that as things stand a good rogue most often has the most kills at the end of a match.

Because that is how it is intended to be.... All three characters serve a different purpose in pve and pvp. They are not suppose to be equals in ability. Unfortunately, so many people do not understand this.

Stun imo is way op. But that is for another thread...

The fail on health packs and heals does need to addressed though. It isnt just rogue health packs that are failing.

I often die as warrio as I release hor. Kinda funny as I'll still be standing there with 0% health and blowing a horn -.-

I meant by my post, to keep everything as it is not buff rogues.
