PoE and Skyforge would like to have a word with you on diversity. It does work it can work and you can have multiple ways of getting to that diversity without it breaking a game. This system is terrible as a design and the XIII traits are clear example.
Wait, so your actually trying to claim that 2 instanced playing locations have to do with build diversity? I thought you were going to explain your ridiculousness, not get more…..well…ridiculous.
You sound just as bad as the people who claim this game is casual, LOL Wildstar is more casual than this title.
I do? Sorry to hear that. I would like you to prove that casual play cannot be fun and enjoyable though.
Do I think it is casual? I do not think the game is anything but fun as far as I am concerned. You still have yet to hash out any reasons why diversity is limited in your opinion. For all of your odd claims, I would think you would jump at the chance to do so.
As for the 6/x/6/x/x build you can’t not really not without disabling the only real condition removal tool that’s useful on the engineer as a support engineer. The 3 points you simply have to have in Elixir in order to survive. That’s the essential problem ever since they destroyed kit refinement’s free heal that’s what’s been going on with this character class.
That doesn’t make any sense unless you are trying to play a selfish, self reliant style. Intelligent players use friends and guildies to group with, to fill the gaps. Why do I need stability or cleansing in my build at all when I have a shout warrior and shout guardian in my group that offer all of that a player can ask for. I offer more conditions, CC, additional AoE heals, and fields to blast…….
I’ve explained how they haven’t helped diversity in the second paragraph but let me expand upon it so you’ll see what I mean more clearly. The lack of weapon choices, the locked XIII traits that ironically where put there to improve diversity but haven’t, the lack of new skills (not counting of course the few and far between healing skills).
No, you literally haven’t explained anything at all up to this point. All you have explained is your opinion on a single trait, kit refinement. If you really think that this particular single trait defines a professions over all ability to be diverse, then the problem.
We have enough diversity that in PvP the community feels our turret builds are OP. We are considered one of the best decap professions, we thrive in all aspects of WvW from front line commanding in a zerg, to tower defense, to tower assault, to roaming. We are in the top 3 in damage output in PvE. In each and every one of those cases, a very different build is used. We literally might have the most build diversity out of all the professions.
Do we need more, yes, I feel we do. You seem to think I am disagreeing with your point. I am not, I am simply disagreeing with your noncontributing, accusatory, uninformed claims in your original post. Personally I feel that if they can do a little more for gadgets, which it appears they are trying to do, then we will have A LOT of build options. They are finally doing good things with the FT kit as well. Your going to town in your accusatory attack fest in the OP 3 weeks before changing come in, that you do not have experience with yet. It is not your point I disagree with. it is the way you claim to be the key to “true” diversity as if your ideas are cannon. Yet your ideas were tried in the beta and where an utter and massive disaster. When informed of this, you go out of your way to ignore it. This demonstrates that you do not actually care about diversity, but that you just care about getting your way, whether it is good for the rest of us or not.
I love your attachment by the way, it applies to your original post perfectly, thanks for that.
