After playing in Spvp, I have come to Wpvp. When I am killed, I have to count the hits and what is what in order to know who killed me. It would be for a great convenience to receive the same little board you get when you are killed in Spvp matches

In the “combat” tab of your chat box, it tells you what skill was used to damage you, and how much it did… However, a window like the PvP things would be nice, because those show pictures and such, right? That would be pretty awesome and helpful. It would be crazy long though, if you survived for a long time through zerg vs. zerg fights…

In chat box, you can loose the sight pretty easy. Also it does not show conditions’ effect. I suppose it would not be that long since when you are out of combat it starts counting all over again.

+1 to remove as well. I just have a problem w/ how much health people have in down states. Say you’re jumped by 2 or maybe 3 guys. You manage to actually get a kill. Oh wait… Your 2 friends can revive you way before I could ever get a stomp off, and you have like 15k hit points. I just killed you, and you still have tons of hit points on the ground and I have to kill you again. I just don’t think it rewards people who overcome bad odds. “oh you managed to defeat someone in a 2v1… well lets just give the two even MORE advantage over the one.” I just don’t like it very much.

my 2 cents.

I might have named the thread wrong name since you guys are going off topic.

However the whole idea of downstate is to have an options on what to do.

All i am hearing is “waaaaaaaaaaa, i don’t have the skill to take on 3 people and come out on top”. ( the downed and the average i see is 2 rescuers).

+1 remove down state

Agreed and sure whatever for the OP. Gut the downstate and put back in healer class…this is an abomination, arbitrary mechanics to fill the void…results in more hassle and less fun.

I like downed state. Its significantly different from other MMOs. Yeh, it may need a bit of tweakage but basically it adds an interesting dynamic. Also, given there is little to no healing in this game it gives you some kind of chance against drooling idiots that just want to steamroll without paying attention.

I like the OP’s suggestion.

For all the other people going on about downstate. I also say keep the downstate but add a button to instakill yourself if you don’t want to wait.
