View Full Version : Angel Sets are too OP?! Especially in PvP?

Hey, STS,

I just wanted to request if you considered tuning down the stats of the angel sets a little. I'll explain my reasoning below.

*L65 sets are worthless now, there is no need for them.

*Angel Sets give a huge bonus in PvP and really unbalance the classes! Take elves for example, they're already the support and damage class, now you give them the dodge they need as well? With their high armor and dodge, as well as high skill range, it's WAY too difficult to kill them. Birds are the ones that get the shortest end of the stick in this, just ridiculous IMO. If something could be done to balance this, it would be extremely appreciated. Also, in the future, having such overpowered exclusive items is just not fair to the rest of the PL population and pretty much kills PvP at that level.

Also, on a side note, those who spec'd to L7 skills who were under L65 still have the skills set at L7, further imbalancing PvP and PvE.

Hope you guys can make changes accordingly! :)

Thanks for all that you do,

~Parth

Hey Apollo,

We appreciate your feedback and stress other players to voice theirs as well, but we wanted to make these special. Our long time players who have shown dedication or supported our game deserve something extra. We suggest you try new tactics in overcoming these differences in classes.

Hope you don't quit! :)

Thanks!

Umm no dont tune down the angel gear how bout if ppl really hate the gear in pvp make it non equipable( is that even a word?) In pvp yes angel gear makes lvl 65 gear practically usless but were not 65s anymore+humania will more then likely get a crafting thing...hopefully im finally not a squishy voodoo bear just cause i couldnt aford way way high priced crafted orlok gear and respec to int cause it gave me better armor

Voodoo gave you better armor than Orlok? Also, I believe 1m is quite easy to make.

@Radar, that's a little selfish, IMO, to want to have such a big advantage over players. I have all three classes capped at 66, all with vanity sets so it won't make too big a difference to me, but have you guys tried PvP? It's literally terrible for anyone who isn't an elf.

Shall we tone down 56 glyph so 55 sewer can have a fairer shot? Or 61 Fang?

I'm also going to agree with Under, not everyone has 70mil at their beck and call to get whatever they want when they want it. Have you seen the prices on the new Humania gear? No regular player can possibly afford that. The angel gear is giving everybody the ability to have good gear, maybe 66 pvp is 1 sided right now but wait about a year when 3/4 of the angel gear owners are gone, then it will be the 66 humania gear users winning.

If that is the case and the technical support is acquired they should make l7 skills not able to be used under 40 lvl. They should also respec angel gear to less dodge and more inteligence to balance the dodge loss. My opinion!

I think part of the problem is that the angel sets are better even than the humania gear, at least from what I've seen. I can understand rewarding long-time dedicated players and all, but giving away stuff that's better than the endgame lootable gear of the just-released campaign doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

Why does it need to be nerfed? I think that people who got the angel sets had to work for them and they deserve a reward... We don't all have 100m like you Apollo that we can buy whatever we want whenever we want it... I think the new sets are quite nice. And balanced... My lvl 66 bear can take out a Mage just fine as well as a bird it just takes a lil more effort... I for one am going to twink 66 I'm making a Mage and bird and leaving bear at 66 so long endgame ;P if devs nerf the angel sets... Wow. I will be livid.

@Lowly I realize that, but there still remains the issue of these sets being such a huge advantage at L66 twinking.

Again i'll say, should we nerf 56 glyph too? Or 61 fang?

Pvp is a feature based on advantages, the object of pvp is to kill your opponents, if you can't kill your opponents then you find an advantage and try again. I'm gonna use your logic if you don't mind: Everybody had the chance to download the game and reach 66 before the update thus everyone had the chance to get the angel gear.

I think the L7 skill now is fixed. For L66 angelic items, I agree there is some unbalanced as classes are distorted... I am actually conservative/traditional too but well nice to see how players will adjust on the new environment, I always see dex bird win the highest lvl pvp which i feel unbiased too.. what do you think? lvl 65 pvp is okay in my thought, just create a game where lvl 66 up cant join :)

Wow.

First, not everyone pvp's nonstop. Isn't pvp about "adapt and overcome? And like others have said, not everyone has the time to farm, merch, pvp, and so on. Nor, do we have friends who are willing to give gold to buy sets like 56 glyph, 61 sang, etc.

Second, if the stats on the sets were lessened, there would be an outrage of a much larger scale than tbis thread. What ever happened to beimg grateful for the things given to us?

Please gather a large sample size of the community before maming threads like these.

Having an bonus from the elite vanities in pvp is same as the angel gear. So either both goes away or both stays.

@ apollo no i wasnt sayin voodoo gear is better then crafted orlok lol i was sayin cause i couldn't afford it no matter how much i farmed or biught low and resold that i had respec to int so i could get int gear to increase armor seein as crafted lilith was slightly cheaper and i got lucky with lilith drops im sure crafted orlok woulda made me alot less squishy then lilith and @ mafia yea read wrong i shoulda been more clear im def not in voodoo gear this high up just sayin i was a squishy voodoo bear but now with the angel gear and my stats int/dex im way better off even if i respec back to str itd just make me squisy again i mean my armor is high dps is high dodge is medium crit is ok and regen is great so the angel gear has me maxed the best i can go hence now tell 71 im taking a whole.dif direction and trying summin new it may fail or it may succeed im goin put all stat points from 66 to 71 in my str now and see bout bein a lil tri bear u can call it noobish or anything u want but all im doin is tryin something new and if it fails or better gear comes out that i need higher dex or int for theres always a option to respec basically theres no harm in experimenting right now if anyone has advice or would like to join me in this weird lil mission im going on let me know any constructive criticism is welcome any advice is welcomed even more just dont be to harsh lol

I agree with the posts I thanked.

I sincerely hope the entire community doesn't have to pay just because an apparent small minority think gear is OP for PvP.

As Crim already said, PvP is just a part of the game. Nerfing these sets would hurt PvE even more. And I bet, even when STS would nerf the sets, other threads will pop up on how specific classes are OP too. This has always been the case in the past, and I don't see how that's ever going to change.

Couldn't we, for once, stop complaining and be grateful to STS for providing a lot of people with incredible useful and cool looking sets? I think they did a marvelous job in providing a lot of players with extremely usable gear, so that people without a gazillion gold can actually enjoy PvP and PvE, and be competitive at the same time.

Please STS, don't nerf the sets.

06-21-2012, 07:29 AM
I hope STS doesn't change anything about the sets. In fact, the angel sets are probly my FAVORITE thing STS has ever done. :)

A lot of people are saying humania is too easy. In fact, I thought that myself the first time I ran through it with 4 elixired players. I changed my mind when I went through it with a non elixired group. The mobs hit hard! I understand why the devs made the maps so long- it's because dodge or kiting are the only ways to make it through (as a bird or mage at least) without getting one hitted. The extra dodge from the angel gear def is helpful!

Imo, endgame pvp was broken way before humania anyway.

Thanks again devs!

I see this is not a big deal to you PvE-ers, but people like Apollo (and myself) are very passionate PvP-ers.
In PvE OP gear on any char always helps clearing faster, but if you had some experience with PvP mechainics you would see why this is such a big deal to him.
I agree fully.


There is better stuff at lvl 70 and it will be replaced. I don't think it will be changed.

Speaking with 55k+ PvP/Ctf kills across my chars. From the gear I have seen in cs so far it looks like the lvl70 equip is very unbalanced favouring Int mages (who get even more crit, dodge, hit and armor), and Str bears (80+ dodge, high crit, added hit), while the dex gear gets the very short end of the stick once again...

Well, that's what it looks like on paper so far.

I couldn't really experiment with the agel stuff myself in PvP so far since the messed up UI makes it pretty much unplayable.

I'll wait until that get's fixed and I experienced some actual endgame PvP action, but if I have to quit my beloved Dexbird that would really hurt...

06-21-2012, 08:21 AM

I don't want to sound harsh, but I doubt you have sufficient endgame PvP experience to make such a statement.

I have been PvPing since 56 cap and of course there always were some classes who had advantage over others (ie Dexmage>Dexbird, Dexbird>Strbear, Intmage>Pally, Warbird>Dexbird) and a few generally OP sets like crafted Lilith wand or crafted Orlok, but overall PvP was very enjoyable for any class at any cap (except for Dexbears and -mages being dead for the last one).
Staffmages also are at an disadvantage since Nuris, mainly because the wand sets became very powerful.
In MF Wand Sets made mages somewhat tanks, support class and high dmg dealers at the same time, being able to 2-shot birds and survive much heat. Warbirds and Str bears also had insane dodge, and hs. But with teamplay and skill those minor advantages could be overcome.

All the new gear looks very dodge based, increasing the luck factor involved in PvP, removing skill needed...
And the Sets listed above (str and Int) have not been adapted better for this cap, but were just made stronger.
Furthermore, Talons, with their low range and base dmg have never been an archers favorite weapon for PvP.

I inversted A LOT of time and money in my Dexbird, seeing the stats on new gear feels like STS is slapping me right across the face as a thankyou.

Please, devs and players take a good read through this thread (http://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?42435-Towards-the-perfect-equipment-a-commentary-and-observations-from-the-past), maybe it offers more insight than my posts...

I don't have that much pvp experience. I'm basing the statement upon my limited PL pvp experience vs my DL pvp experience. To me anyway, DL pvp is way better than PL. I don't really want to go into the reasons why right now (don't want to hijack the thread plus it's not that important anyway, haha). If you really want to know though I can pm you.

I may not have 55k kills (I probably have between 8-10k), but the point of argument for this thread is the fact that soon, individuals will have their hands on the new lvl70 sets. Why punish the lot of people for a very, VERY temporary fix? Which I remind you was a gift.

Now... if the lvl 70 sets are stat heavy in favor of one class over another, then I can see the point in a thread like this.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not mad or blaming the devs to have ruined PvP.

I'm just trying to explain that the gear seems unbalanced so far. If the lv70 sets are gonna be similar to the angelic ones or to what we see in cs, the devs should consider revamping the stats on them right away in an early patch.

When is the last time sets have actually been balanced? I'm asking this because as long as I'm reading these forums, whenever new stuff is released, I've seen thread after thread explaining how one class always seemed to be OP.

I hope this doesn't come across as offensive, that was not my intend. I just don't get the continuous 'this and that is OP' threads, whenever something new is released.

Again i'll say, should we nerf 56 glyph too? Or 61 fang?

Pvp is a feature based on advantages, the object of pvp is to kill your opponents, if you can't kill your opponents then you find an advantage and try again. I'm gonna use your logic if you don't mind: Everybody had the chance to download the game and reach 66 before the update thus everyone had the chance to get the angel gear.

Then I'll use your logic of second chances. When people have these, now they don't want to let others get them. I have the full sets and realize how much of an advantage they have over normal gear.

The difference between L56 glyph and sewers gear is you can still obtain L56 glyph.

@Fluff, try everything in PvP. Mages have such high armor that they do not die unless pinned, pretty ridiculous.

@Sam, okay, I understand that, but it still leaves L66 twinking dead to anyone who does not have a set.

Wow.

First, not everyone pvp's nonstop. Isn't pvp about "adapt and overcome? And like others have said, not everyone has the time to farm, merch, pvp, and so on. Nor, do we have friends who are willing to give gold to buy sets like 56 glyph, 61 sang, etc.

Second, if the stats on the sets were lessened, there would be an outrage of a much larger scale than tbis thread. What ever happened to beimg grateful for the things given to us?

Please gather a large sample size of the community before maming threads like these.

06-21-2012, 12:37 PM
Hey, STS,

I just wanted to request if you considered tuning down the stats of the angel sets a little. I'll explain my reasoning below.

*L65 sets are worthless now, there is no need for them.

*Angel Sets give a huge bonus in PvP and really unbalance the classes! Take elves for example, they're already the support and damage class, now you give them the dodge they need as well? With their high armor and dodge, as well as high skill range, it's WAY too difficult to kill them. Birds are the ones that get the shortest end of the stick in this, just ridiculous IMO. If something could be done to balance this, it would be extremely appreciated. Also, in the future, having such overpowered exclusive items is just not fair to the rest of the PL population and pretty much kills PvP at that level.

Also, on a side note, those who spec'd to L7 skills who were under L65 still have the skills set at L7, further imbalancing PvP and PvE.

Hope you guys can make changes accordingly! :)

Thanks for all that you do,

~Parth

I like the sets the way they are. For them to Nerf set now would be unfair to all the ppl who sold there 65sets.

The individual tiki gear is not better, but since no hats are dropping there is no way to test to see if it makes a better "set"

Here's what I've seen since I've pvped at all lvls. There is no Op anything. It's how you play your char, how you distribute your skill and attribute points and your strategy. There's always gonna be someone better than you out there. You'll own people and people will own you. I've been in a few situations where I've taken out people using fang gear(including crafted fang stuff) with crafted sewer dex set on my bear. It's strategy. Just play a few matches, watch your opponent and learn their weakness. I'll give it my best shot against these op angel sets and I'll find a way to beat a few using crafted orlok 2h set. Sounds like a long shot but I'm up for a good challenge. Don't get discouraged cause your not winning as much as you were. It's like someone said in an earlier post. Adapt and destroy >:) (not even sure I quoted that right but you get the idea) make new combos, play with different builds. With the skill points being bumped up to 7, its time to figure out new builds that work. Just have fun with pvp. You win some you lose some. But you live. You live to fight another day XD

Gaunab

Just tested the angelic sets on mage and bird with some guildies.
The additinal dodge makes the fights very luck based. A bird can tank and dodge a whole combos and land some crits and a cruel blast to win, or get two-shotted by the mages drain/fire/lightning. Bird vs Bird is just about landing the roots.

If lv70 gear is similar to this, it seriously needs a revamp.

And now please dont tell me I need to adapt to the new gear etc. Higher and higher dodge just magnifies the luck factor involved, decreasing the skill needed.

Optimally, birds should have 40-48 buffed dodge with a bow (I have 66 in Talon set), str bears maybe around 70, and mages have shield and heals to keep them alive so theirs shouldn't need to be above 15.

Just trying to give some input so the actual humania sets might be altered, I hope life as a full dex bird will be enjoyable at 71...

06-22-2012, 08:10 AM
Oh I thought 200+ armor on a bird was ok?

When have you seen a bird use a talon usefully in pvp?
Also, im not so much complaining about the stats and unbalanceness? As much as you just changed the way classes play at the moment. A bowbird doesnt, or cant exist? Why give birds a talon and the others their normal set. Giving a bird a talon is like giving the mage a staff and giving a bear or hammer or claymore or whatever. Thats just what im saying, maybe dont "nerf" the sets, but you could of at least given birds their weapon of choice. Once again not complaining about OP sets. I find myself playing like a warbird now, and not very effectively at all. I would have liked to see a bow for bird, and im sure that would have balanced everything, seriously. It would make birds more dangerous will taking away their survivability (uhhhh pretty sure thats what a bird has been for the past two years) while the mages and bears can stay "OP" as they are now, according to people here, but noe just easier to kill by birds, but dont forget the birds are easier to kill now too. Thats just my two-sense. Nothing will ever be balanced, but its the little things that can make a huge difference, like a bow.A bow is an archers best friend.

I don't like this argument of level 70 items, "resolving the angelic set issue." How the heck is it going to do that? Stats are constantly increasing across all gear for all attributes. Isn't that the issue we have run into? The angelic int set already has the highest armor of any other set, including strength.

Soo, what's going to happen with the 70 sets? There will be a larger difference in armor for an int set and a str set, int sets will have even higher crit and dodge, etc? Dex gear has been drowning since level 56, and it will continue to follow this path! If we continue to just universally increase stats on gear, then NO issue is being resolved, it's being worsened.

Hmph. Perhaps this deserves a little more attention than, "suck it up bro omgzorzz".

Pvp needs to be balanced. Enough said. It's been a while since all of the classes have truly played their own roles (tank and aggro, support and AOE, single target damage) and its also been a while since all of the classes have been balanced. This subject has really not been getting enough attention from the devs, and I think it should, mainly because 35 pvp so unfair and unbalanced because I pwn all so easy

Parth I love you to pieces. I'm just sick of always hearing ppl complain something is overpowered. And let's not forget, last I knew, we don't even know the new set stats yet. So maybe, angel set will be underpowered against Lvl 66 sets and then its not fair to the ppl who can't afford the new sets. (see something will always be unfair to someone)

I think it should be left as is especially with so many unknown factors.

Well now that I've been in PvP for the past couple days with these "overpowered" Angel sets I feel there is a way around them.

Mages vs Bird - Extremely difficult for the bird to hit but. . .
Bear vs Bird - Bear's suck now unless they use talon.
Bird vs Bird - Whoever dodges the most WINS!

The way around it is simple, buy all the tiki gear because it's 2x better.

I know most of you dont, but dont go off complaining about drops rates and then saying that pvp players think the games all aout them because voiced their opinion about an issue, because im sure every update there has been an issue about pve players complaining about drop rates, or loot, or something.

I have to respectfully disagree. I think it's both PVE and PVP. I for one don't pvp, yet I'm still around after a year and a half.

I think STS would be wiser to find a way to separate the entities. For example, when entering a pvp stage, all set bonuses, and vanities bonuses are nulled out. That would end the complaints about whose getting what bonus. Not to say it won't start others, but at least everyone would be on a much more even playing field.

Then that would defeat the point of pvp players leveling to elite cap, leaving sts with a big whole in their pocket. And would make previous vanities useless.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the new vanity doesn't give bonuses, and people still want it. This includes the pvp players.

Like I said, it won't end the arguments, but it will level the playing field. What are the main arguments we hear? Founders helm, CoP, SoH, MFA bonuses, crafted set bonus vs non crafted gear. All the complaints are around the set bonuses. All the great pvp players say it's about the skill. So level the playing field and find out.

With more thought, mages - while they ARE more powerful than the other classes without a doubt DO have a weakness.

Weakness:

• Low Hit Percent

What does this mean? Birds, who can be hit debuff monsters, need to equip a longbow, instead of the angel talon, blind shot first and then continue with their combo.

The disadvantage? Mages now have dodge, so, it is difficult to land the combo. A root or two might be useful, if you're fast enough to get it in before the mage's main combo.

With that being said, I still believe the classes are imbalanced, as there are more crossover stats that used to be unique to specific classes (Elves getting dodge via angel gear).

That is good to hear! I did some testing, and while break armor can be repaired with heal, blind shot can not. Still have not tested roots, but considering the dodge debuff from crushing blow can not be healed, I assume that can not either.

Yes they can.

Cb and blinding shot are the only two non-healable debuffs AFAIK.

Either way, surviving long enough inside a mage's range to get off booth roots AND blind shot is gonna be fun ;) You also then have 5 seconds of relative safety and two seconds of running before doing it again.

How carma if im returning accounts to owners? That makes no sense.... You should read more carefully..... Worse than a script kiddie i swear.

Karma*

Anyways, hacking, good or bad, is still hacking, therefore karma. Two wrongs do not make a right and neither does bragging about it on the forums, which probably wasn't smart as you just labeled yourself as a hacker.

Question:

Isn't hacking illegal? I thought only hacking your own computer was legal. Again, it wasn't smart to admit that you're hacking a well known company's servers. There are some things you should keep to yourself.

You should leave the returning of accounts to the developers of the game, as they handle it best.

And so, the downfalls of hubris unravel.

To quote you, "worse than a script kiddie, I swear".


Edit: Since you are so skilled, I encourage you to hack my account. Please, prove yourself better than those script kiddies you seem to go on about.

Also, if you really can hack, why are you wasting your time on pixels when you could go much further and reap far greater benefits for the risk involved?

I tried pvping with only a crafted sang crossbow set on my bird, and I can manage to take out the opponent maybe half the time (or less, because I kinda suck). But with mages, I feel I can't do anything. Blast their mana shield? Great, but then I die while trying to debuff and land all my skills. What's even worse is that restore doesn't work properly. Mages are basically owning everyone, and they can heal and stuff too. I understand that the reason I lose is partially because I'm a noob, but i see plenty of other birds getting slaughtered too...And bears

Here's how I see it. If your a:
Bird: Have tons of skill and know how to kite.
Mage: Spam ur buttons and heal a lot.
Bear: No real skill needed.

So you can win with any class if you use them right. The only thing people get angry with is when they are "pro" and lose to a noob with a op set. And they also get angry when they can't afford 100 mil armor.
