    i never knew that, i have seen a few 2 hander birds now, if thats the case that should be nerfed yup

    btw i fought some good people and lost to them, this one mage in particular is very good, im telling you people should invest less time complaining and just have fun and try and find ways to beat others imo.

    Talons. And also, if you noticed, the blash shot animation is an arrow being thrown so I assume it's meant to be like that.

    Just stop with the nerfing bull guys, it's becoming really frustrating. I am tired of seeing all these complaints, it's starting to ruin the game for me. The whole thing has basically turned into a giant nerf convention. What's good for one person isn't always good for everyone else.

    Hybrids are something that make the game very flexible and enable you to play in a wide variety of ways. PvP is brand-new and going to take awhile to find its best form. Be patient and keep offering constructive feedback. Btw I fixed that thread title for ya

    Removing hybrids is not the answer.

    EDIT: posted without reading the whole thread... I ban myself for such a noob move.

    They are actually quite nasty burst damage with 2h. Probably top 3 in classes. Allowing armor hybriding is one thing, but letting any weapon work with skills regardless of range is wrong on so many levels.

    As long as unrestricted hybrids are in the game, class combat will never be balanced and PvP will never be taken seriously. I'm always checking to see what games are running in pvp at level 35. Most of the time there are no games, and when there is one or two games, there are about 4-5 people playing. The lack of popularity in pvp speaks for itself.

    Edit: that said, the cooldown buff situation is the most troubling aspect of pvp.

    Lag is what causes me to stay away from PvP, not the lack of balance.

    most people don't lag. Try wifi. If your latency is over 300, its your connection, not the game. You should experience more lag in pve with 5 players and all the mobs, than a pvp match thats 2 on 2.

    2 on 2 is fine, the 5 on 5 gets horrible slow down for me!

    Mamboza's Croc Scale Leather. Get some.

    I had Mamboza's Croc Scale Leather for my archer, but I'm playing a straight-up Avian Archer, so it wasn't useful for me. Meditation takes care of my mana needs. However, a bow-bear or a bowchantress with Mamboza's Croc Scale Leather would be pretty awesome....

    You're awesome. Reject the haters and go easy with the nerfs. The complainers will get tired of complaining eventually....

    Ummm, I use wifi with an average of 70-130 ping. It's the game.

    70-130 ping is great latency. Nothing wrong with the game there.

    I know. I normally associate slow and coppy gameplay with the word lag.

    I didnt even bother reading these replies after seeing the name of this post. Any clever birdy or sword wielding chantredd csn kill u once ,aybe twice max then are out of mana. End of story, you then go up to them and kill them and just play back and forth. Mana is a huge factor to hybrids minus clever birdy. You need to realize the devs work hard yes, and we all love them for it, BUT as it stands NOW pvp is broken in more than just HYBRIDS so its hard to say thats the On,y thing thats making it no fun. Itll take time but pvp will have its place in the meantime hybrids make this game.


    Note: i do not play hybrid builds, im pure dps full int build chantress. But i do appreciate those who do

    The devs already said that hybrids bring more option and freedom in the game.
    This game is only in it's early stages, so don't expect PvP to be perfect.
    Expect some nerfs though.
