    Default Why so much hate on Elite Sea Blaster in PvE?

    Title says it all.

    C'mon guys it's not as if this is going to cause a wipe in the party! It could be used to ease the tension in farming or sorts!

    If people hate on it that much, why not just switch to another weapon instead of provoking them?

    If I was trying to do quick farming runs while someone with an ESB kept killing party members left and right, I'd ask politely to switch weapons or get the boot.

    The ESB is mostly only fun for the one using it but I can understand 100% why other people don't share that joy. Maybe you should try placing yourself in their shoes for once.


    And for all doubters of my rockstar status:

    ESB doesn't bother me. It's part of the game, just stay alert and go around the bombs. I ran with someone last night with ESB equipped, he was nice enough to declare it up front as people joined.

    I will say I find it insightful to see who gets mad when they go... KABOOM-SPLAT.

    Didn't matter, it's just a 3m radius that I play with against mobs. If they don't want to dodge that, why must they force the user to switch in the first place?

    And also If I remembered correctly, Technoemail gave out some tips when it comes to playing with the ESB, so I personally think I can cope with someone with an ESB in my team. The more the merrier.

    Looks like I gotta make games now.

    Anywho, ESB would be funnier if there are 2 or more chars in the party utilizing it.

    Don't get me wrong, I love that ESB, but if you don't like people complaining about it, you should make your own rooms or run with people who don't care.

    Peope clearly care enough for you to make a topic about it. As said, try and put yourself in their shoes.

    hate the ESB.

    It's PvE. Party members are supposed to work together, not kill each other. Using the ESB is a choice that the player makes. If another player was doing something else that got other party members killed, they should be booted.

    Funny how STS always wants player to learn to work together and then let people run around trolling their party by dropping exploding sewer grates on top of them

    Wow...you guyz are getting angry over those?
    In humania cap, I was lvling up in nuri, and I think the place where strongmans anvil comes in funhouse and hits you
    And can kill ya.
    When I was there, there was two birds with ESB, their bombs dropped, the anvil came, everyone was wiped out by supa exploding anvil! (xcept for birds lol!)
    With ESB, sometimes it would be annoying, if a boss is taking ya down, then ESB cannon and finishes ya off.

    Some people don't pay much attention in battle and take it easy and don't see the bomb dropping...I've seen an Esb kill a whole team during a duke fight due to his enthralled effect.

    True True. This is why I won't use it against bosses. Just the mobs would do.

    I'm a hater, that thing gets me almost every time. I don't mind the dieing part it's the long run to catch back up if there's no mag. If you haven't figured it out yet I play this game like old people make love,, slow an sloppy.
