but did it feel good tho?
Id say PvP is more on the balanced side now but bear might need a slight buff in armor close range they can destroy but its really hard for them long distanced with all the dodge and procs

I just watched nubs pawning pros because they have bows... that's not balanced at all...
Looking like another Dex cap for sure, mages that couldn't beat me in my 100 int set while wearing fully enchanted 105 sets have these stats with talon proc... 100 dodge buff and 1k armor is way too much.
Before anyone disagrees with that because of who i am, think about ME with THESE stats...

[BOW]
Reducing the area of effect for the bow proc sounds reasonable. I think it should be ~50% smaller.
Ability range should remain at 13 but the proc rate should be dropped back down to where it was last week.
[WAND]
Speed buff should return but at a lower amount (instead of +60% speed, add +30% speed).
Discuss.
Yes, the Talon set is very tanky but doesn't do a lot of damage which is why wand mages are superior. They also have weaknesses such as less mana, lower hit %, etc. when using the set on a mage. Try out the set for yourself and you'll see. Initially, my guildies and I said "wow, the Talon proc sure seems op," but then tested it out for ourselves and were underwhelmed. It's only really useful on a bird and the damage is still low. Before bows were released, birds complained about not putting out enough dmg. Now that bows have been released, there are a lot less complaints about the Talon set. You either go for tankiness or more dmg output, depending on which set you choose.
Agreed on the bow nerfs. I main bird and even I can admit that bow needs a nerf. The proc rate is out of hand.
Not sure about the wand buff. I personally believe that the wand set is one of the strongest sets in the game right now even without the speed. The speed is just unnecessary and awkward. The speed makes it harder to kite in mage vs mage battles, as well as other class battles. Additionally, the speed ruins a major aspect of ctf. As far as buffs go, I would say we need to buff staff, 2h sword, dagger, and tyben's sword before focusing on any other buffs. The other weapons (bow, wand, Talon, axe) are feeling the love currently while these weapons aren't feeling as much love.
We appreciate your quick replies and updates, Cinco. Pvp has been fun thus far this cap. We just need to make some adjustments.

Yep i agree bow is too op i can own people even as a dex bear using bow. The Tyben str gear will need some added dmg or something because bear is the worst atm. Speed on wand i dont think really needs to be added that is just a unnecessary advantage. It's so hard to play talon bird because once we proc we dont land enough dmg and the other player still lives, and if the other player is a bird then he procs and trys to kill but it takes overall around 3 procs both ways to kill evenly(Unless someone procs more then the other).

I wouldnt add dmg to str set premature decisions like these will make pally rule 105, find another way to make bear playable again by using skill dmg or something but buffing the set itself has big set backs in pvp, bear is good in team play but it 1v1 it struggles to get the job done, honestly i think that the axe set or sword set have enough dmg to them because if u fight a pally you notice they do ridiculous damage up close for a str mage. I dont really play bear so idk what can fix the problem they are having but i dont think a set buff is the way to go.
I think the proc rate for the bow should be reduced, but not down to an extent of where it was last week when it barely procced. Again, as sad as it is, the bow and many other sets are heavily proc reliant, determining who wins a fight. An alternative to this could be strongly nerfing procs and boosting skill damage (by a lot) for all classes. Additionally, the bow set has really low armor, so it can be nuked quite easily.
On a side note, I’d like to discuss what changes can be done to fix the bear class. In team fights, bears excel and are essential to winning PvP games. However, an issue arises when fighting 1v1. For instance, bears do seem to have a variety of measures to keep their target grounded, but it seems as if they dont hit hard enough within that stun window, inevitably allowing them to get nuked down. In addition, coupled with the bear class, the Tyben sword’s proc is utterly useless. This is a good opportunity to buff the sword, which will lead to bears utilizing it more often (as was the initial intention). Furthermore, in addition to randomly spawning pools and execute proc, the sword should have an armor break effect, allowing for bears to have the “crushed” combo, and should also have an increase in damage. A lifesteal aspect that the dagger has could also be implented to increase survivability.

Hi, sorry this might be off topic but does “1v1 is an untenable matrix for one Designer. Sorry to say mean that cinco” mean cinco brought us white dragon and all updates alone because if he did I have to give him 2 thumbs up. I praise him when we get something good and rant when something broken and that’s not verry fair. thanks a lot for everything cinco

This.
I would MUCH rather emphasize the team play. 1v1 is certainly not the most balanced, but team play has been quite fun.
@Cinco, in response to the procs you just asked about – I agree with the tweaks you proposed for the bow. I disagree, however, that a speed bonus return for the wand proc. I have been able to play a lot of capture the flag and FFA games, and the speed just makes it awkward and annoyingly unpredictable, only eliminating the strategic element.
Keep procs much it add more strategy to pvp. Was kind of boring having to pvp with bow or wand on every class. Kite and auto attack zzz. Now it’s like kite proc maybe a root effect to set up a team combo
