Thats their plan i guess. Its funny how they got time to make new pets and events every month or so but wont solve the actual problem - balancing the classes smh. Might aswell intorduce two more classes hey sts? Mages are dead anywaysQuote:

Plus if freeze did come back for mage then the non breeze owner's will start complaining and it too will get removed again. So mages arent gonna win. If they wanted to give freeze to mage they would have done it the same time they introduced breeze. But its not gonna happen coz its gonna cause bigger problem for them to solve.
Breeze killed everything it was a big FAIL.
We are debating about a serious skill here... not complaining...
This debate and discussion would help devs take a decision..
Lets keep it constructive and discuss further..
+1 agree
Please remind me to never run tombs with you.Quote:

Yes, if sts can allow pets to have Mage skills and wepons have mages skills. Why can't they give our skills back? Now I want to why the Mage class was made if they got no skills. There is a huge difference between pets getting mages skills and mages not having their very own skills. What's the point when a pet has the capability to freeze a class while the class that can freeze cannot even freeze their target totally in pvp?Quote:

People who may not own this pet are the ones complaining that its too op. If it gets a nerf what about the people that spent 2 to +3m to use this pet effectively. I have bought one and I know I wont be a happy camper :) Just remember every decision made will make someone upset. I think it would be wise to keep Breeze as it is to.. 1) Keep the price up so endgamers have something worthy to make money off. 2)People who have already bought and opened this pet will get what they deserve - a good pet. 3)Give anyone else who has not bought it the chance to see from our perspective on the pet. :)
Oh and... Bring back mages ability to freeze :)
Omg...okQuote:

To the devs and the mage population:
Just remove freeze from pvp. Period.
Mages should not get freeze back. If thats the case, rogues are clearly screwed becuase unlike mages, we are vulnerable to 2 hits and 3 hits the entire duration of a 1v1/clash, as we do not have a shield skill. Imagine us frozen without any shield or buffs!
Mages will be fine in clashes with thier two new shield buffs without the freeze in pvp, the problem here is that every mage wants to outlive the tank or rogues in clash. No. Rogues and mages are not tanky, you are bound to get killed, so don't expect a buff that will make you everlasting. Look at rogues, we die in the first few seconds of the clash a lot, whereas mages have the 2 second immunity that can help.
My second point, I believe pvp isn't made for 1v1s and NO BUFFS OR NERFS should be made on the basis of 1v1s, however, I can easily say that in a 1v1 against a rogue, a mage can chill in thier 2 seconds invulnrability and spam skills - strike 2k crits with the potential 3 attack skills. With or without razor, its hard not to die. Not to mention its duration is bugged, so it doesn't even last half the match and we are stunned as soon as it wears out.
Just giving a rogue perspective, because the way things are headed with these mage buffs, rogues are screwed. They already got buffed enough, stop crying. Not all mages can kill tanks in 1v1s and that does not mean they were underpowered (what? You want to kill every class in pvp naturally?). The pvp here was intended for teamplay. If you cannot kill other mages or rogues, refer to the earlier point or maybe its time for you to get new gear or skill . If you want tips ask Beocatarii, he can kill rogues finely in 1v1s.

Why not make it a charged attack that can freeze the TGT, if you allow an uncharged attack to freeze ur target in pvp that is kind of unfair from my perspective since ice skill cooldown is 3 secs and the TGT remains frozen more than the CD PERIOD. For the least increase the CD period or make the skill such that the target only freezes when the skill is the charged.this would make it likely to be balanced and sort of normalish.
It doesn't matter if its charged or uncharged. It still freezes and mages do not need OP buffs. I'd imagine you'd be unhappy if the 20% damage nerf on rogues was removed.Quote:

Breeze won't be removed.. Idk about if its unique freeze ability would be completely removed or not..Quote:

breeze freezes too often and stuns for too long. Don't get rid of breeze AA, just nerf it. You should have a timer of consecutive stuns from breeze. In PvP i get stunned for 7 secs unfreeze for 2 secs and get stunned again for 7 secs. Developers please listen to the community, we are offering out constructive criticism so please take our opinions on board.
Devs have been discussing removing freeze in pvp. Don't lose hope.Quote:

Lol if breeze can freeze, mages can be able to freeze to. End of story. I'm sick to see EVERY skill of a mage gettin converted into a PET!!!Quote:

I would have a chance kill some players with freeze, I quited endgame pvp because i can't follow in gear, I'm half myth/legendary, everyone who see me in pvp go Always after me because i'm the most 'EASY' target 'food'.
With freeze on ice i would have a chance of winning or running away (if not freezed by breeze)
Thats from a mage view my kdr is so negative.. I'm so scared to log into my 41 mage everyone who see my kdr starts whine about it. There is noway i can get my kdr positive with rogues usin breeze. So i rather stay at twink
I would LOVE to comeback at endgame. The time i was Purple thunder was the best time ive ever had. Then new gears came at a crazy rate and i can't follow (gold wise) Thats where i left 41.

I would like to recall Carapace's reply here...
Pl suggest some changes be made to breeze to keep its worth alive and make it more balanced...

- During the freeze, about every .5 seconds there will be a X% chance for the trapped player to break free. This would likely be around 25% or 33%, but could go as high as 50% depending on the maximum length of the freeze.
For example, if percentage to break free is 25%, then for the rest of the stun immunity period of 7.5 sec this player has 25% chance to get freezed again (of course calculated every 0.5 seconds for the suposed duration of the freeze effect).
Correct me if im wrong in here...
From the intent of introduction of Breeze's ability... I think it connects to Remiem's thread in Sorcerers Section on "When is Mage Buff Coming"?..
Through Breeze's ability i think we can see the picture connecting to the Statement here "What Happens if Mages get their Freeze ability back"
So Breeze's ability, as i may see, is giving a future picture on a part of incoming Mage buff...
For me, freeze is a good alternative buff for mage's squishiness(it's like wet bathroom tissue. Honestly want more hp or armor. )
Having its own 10sec immune out of stun immune, about 30%chance of 2 sec freeze with 50% chance of break sounds reasonable because frostbolt cd is pretty short and it's aoe attack.
Only thing I don't like about this is that pvp has too much stun and panic already. Too much stun makes game bored. (And other bugs that sts might bring up..)
Except that cara has good concept of freeze I think.
Let's not cry that we can't kill this class as before. They aren't supposed to kill other class naturally(well, rogue were), but if the freeze immune works properly, it's not gonna be that bad.
Or just more armor and hp are fine for me too. Xp
And keep breeze freeze in its own 10sec immune to keep its value. This freeze should not stack.
Freeze never works in pvp. If a pet breaks the rule, people will complain!!Quote:

We will be re-analyzing Breeze once we get back from the Holidays (January 5th.) I can not speak just yet about what exactly those changes will be, but we've got our eye on it.
Wow pvp players world wide rejoice... minus the few with only breeze and legendaries who were all of sudden killing ringed players with S&S o.OQuote:

That's like saying Para gems are prelepsis of a rogue buff.Quote:

There is definitely some OP issues with breeze and having it ensures almost 100% victory in 1 v1 situations and a high percentage in clashes is seriously wrong. On the other hand, to nerf it to the point of being a sorc / mage pet is also not right given the 120 planar fragments price tag. It's not an easy task to farm for an average player.
Lastly, even with the recent shield buff (thank you very much STG) our mages still face significant issues in balance. No doubt the fully geared mage can hold its ground in pvp, but the basic issue of a legendary warrior / rogue still having an almost certain victory over a similar legendary mage still persist. I care for the mage community in general so that is why even after the buffs at the top end of mage has happened I want to remind you that there are still flaws fundamental to the class itself. I agree that the mage skill nerf on crowd control in pvp is the reason this class is so underpowered.
@Bless
Like all situations there are always
counters, just experiment and think harder. So what if freeze was returned (look at the word here it means to restore and not bluntly given)? Mages were meant to be the CC class. So use ironhide pet / misty pet to remove stun. Walk the talk if you say pvp is not a 1 v1 game. Have someone sacrifice and use such a pet for the benefit of the rest. Sure with misty and ironhide you are not going to get a lot of kills but that's a team player no?
Walk the talk and think very very carefully before you make a suggestion and claim something like pvp is not about 1 v 1. Because that scenario happens a lot in pvp. Maybe because I always join tdm against groups that stack at the start, I dunno.
The vote back on... I hope all Sorcs vote for Mage Freeze in pvp :D
Why should mages have a freeze ability? So that rogues and tanks would avoid it with razor/jug/mist? So that mages would cry afterwards to give them a legit buff?Quote:

You wanna walk the talk? Then give feedback on new skills or group combos instead of supporting another OP luck factor.
I'd rather have no freezing in PvP than having mages get freeze. Simply because this would be way too OP and PvP was doing fine till Breeze showed up. Rogues with Breeze are literally unstoppable in a 1v1 scenario (and there's no running from it, 1v1s are a major part of PvP) as the 7 seconds freeze is enough to down literally ANYTHING. IMO, this is unfair.
On another tangent, mages should get an armor boost. Rogues have ~500 armor more so they do not have such a hard time in PvP. Increasing base armor stats by say 100-200 will do wonders. Rogues shouldn't be able to have higher damage AND armor than mages. (Not talking about damage stat, output damage - ever seen a mage score a 4k crit on one attack?) Let's ignore shield for a second because it 100% will not last the full time in clashes unless you're like versus a team in commons, and think about it a bit. Mages should have a comparable armor boost to make us less squishy, and will make shield less of a norm vs, say, warriors.
Just my $.02, let's wait for STS's decision.
if stun and freeze immunity are different, then a toon without impairing immunity are dead already ( dont expect razor and jugg it has long cd !) Fire-Freeze-Panic pet + elon proc etc etc .. u cant move, a warrior with 25% stun chance and a samael still can easily stunlock this day, imagine a mage with 100% stun chance + FREEZE, and please dont talk about mage's squishyness, rogue will die very first in a clash if their tank cant heal, believe me this is true
Mages faster, if mage no heal and get an crit of 3-4k without shield mages wil be dead, mage dies fast in pvp then rouges do...Quote:
