New melee pet archetype....

how does it even detect when it has a player’s attention? when it’s being targeted?

This is hilarious seeing how beastmater ranger is one of the most OP specs in the game right now.

AOE DAMAGE TOO STRONG!

So my jaguar hits for 4k crit on a glass cannon spec while I wear soldier amulet… So does an ele with burning speed or even higher with fire grab or churning earth. Not to mention, all those skills are also aoe while the pet’s is just 1 target.

ever used a river drake?

If you get hit by the river drake’s 2 second windup tail swipe, you are a MORON.

The drake literally winds his tail back and roots himself in place before doing it, and because the drake has kitten poor precisions like wolves and any pet that isn’t a raven or cat, at best their autoattacks regularly hit for 800-900 damage noncrit.

tail swipe is not restricted to the river drake, and it hits 5 targets for about 2000 damage with a 1.25 cast time

i’m talking about lightning breath; it hits 15 times for about 900 damage each

also their auto-attack cleaves

Zero-adrenaline burst skill is possible

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

with no traits or sigils:

  1. disable auto attack
  2. gain adrenaline with something
  3. connect with a burst skill on a foe
  4. swap weapon set
  5. connect with another burst skill

it won’t work if:

it results in a burst skill effect that is weaker than it would be with 1 bar of adrenaline

burst skills do not immediately drain adrenaline when they connect, only when followed up with a skill or certain effect

this occurrence affects a number of things, including the possibility of missing out on the effects of Berserker’s Power and Heightened Focus during flurry’s channeling


  • connecting with a burst skill and immediately following it up with Healing Surge will result in a stage 1 adrenaline heal instead of 0, even if you used a burst skill with 2 or 3 bars
  • connecting with a burst skill and immediately following it up with FLURRY, unfortunately, inflicts an EQUAL STAGED ADRENALINE BURST EFFECT and is highly exploitable!

i would suggest draining adrenaline when the burst skill completes

Why there is no 1v1

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

of course it is unbalanced in 1v1 situations, because it is intended to be about TEAMS.

I keep hearing this but never with any proof. Citation please.

your citation is in the title of the game
and no it’s not named after lore, pvp came first
