how do you guys see pvp? i personally enjoy pvp, but i cant blame people that dont, bc there rlly is no personality on anything

for example, builds, best one are high defense, high power and maybe 100 or more atk size, that kinda it, it rlly just bodies every other build, assuming both have equal skill, i think the 1.14 (dark sea) formula was the best formula, sure the only valiable stat for pvp were size and atk speed, but i rlly feel like every stat would benefit for that formula to the point where is viable, but as far, agil is annoying but rlly doesnt help u more than deciding when the fight ends/starts, atk speed sucks since at 200 you only get 24% more speed, intensity isnt worth enough to be mainly run, AP and resistance sucks (especially resistance, just bc people are dumb and atk u during the end of a charge doesnt mean that resistance is good meta), the only viable stat is atk size, which scales better than the stat that forces you to aim to deal dmg

i got people being disappointed that resistance no longer affects blocking or that their dagger get deleted by wind or even people that cant combo people after a self synergy or grab (while i hated that self synergy thing, i gotta admit that it added some personality), these are casual players, they dont play the game bc its balanced for pvp, they play it for fun, but if the fun is sacrificed for balancing, then pvp will also not be fun anymore, at this point can you rlly pvp for the reason to have fun? i guess ya but can you even point what makes it fun? i guess not, which that is a big issue, honestly i hope bteam will undo most changes that took from the personalities of abilities/stats, even if the game is a bit less balance, its atleast gonna be fun, so who cares?

I see it with my eyes :eyes:

pvp is fun and should be more developed with more world events revolving around pvp

also make atk speed great again :100:
atk speed meta is by far the most fun

4

was gonna answer before I saw it was 2 paragraphs, then was gonna answer again until I saw the Iā€™s were LOWERCASE

5

the only things to do in this game is grind for stuff to pvp and pvp

6

I commit clan-icide, player-icide, and low-level-icide every time I play AO.

I canā€™t team gank on people anymore because my sister takes piss poor care of her PC and broke it when she was having a gamer rage.

(Sad times we live in)

Should be less punishing for people that donā€™t want to, and have more engaging aspects (that isnā€™t renown or stats) for those that do.

To this day I do not understand how you say that without even the slightest morsel of shame. I wouldnā€™t even cal that PVP.

Anyways, what I want is more player choice in how their build works. A more traditional skill tree system wouldā€™ve worked wonders, as the current system is more or less just spamming either fast or large moves while jumping above your opponent.

i just hopped on recently after a month or so of break

wow playing valorant on 30 ping and 80 fps consistently has spoiled me

optimization seems to be a huge reason why pvp is so gatekept and frustrating for players who have low end pcs and laptops

if vetex optimizes ao so many more players would get into it

only enjoyable part of the game currently

No, that was the most unskilled, brainless, and least fun meta to deal with. Even people were saying size was more skilled at that point.

12

Honestly, I would much rather prefer a skill tree as well.

The attack speed scaling formula in-game is broken, resort to using the gear builder to see the true % .

Anyway, PvP is just toxic and unbalanced in this game. Itā€™s enjoyable as long as youā€™re not fighting any meatheads or having insane lag or anything alike.

I only PvP in my Elysium servers meaning I can kick anyone I want and fight in a non laggy environment so I donā€™t really encounter the issue of lag or toxic inviduals anymore but yeah.

Itā€™s fun when I actually wanna do itā€¦?

I usually hate most types of ā€œcompetitiveā€ PvP, specially games like Valorant and League of Legends for uhh personal issues.

The only ā€œrealā€ PvP I did was in my Elysium with 8 friends, never with randoms, when it comes to open world PvPā€¦ well, a ESC + L + Enter works just fine (thank you for making me used to this Rogue Lineage)

I used to be one of those ā€œpvpheadsā€ a few years ago when I was a teenager because I wanted to feel ā€œacceptedā€ in another group of ex-friends and oh boy it was terrible, I prob made alot of ppl have a bad day on some other games :fr:

mb for the yap

I genuinely dislike it, Itā€™s unique but goodness at some point I donā€™t feel like Iā€™m a mage using magic, it feels like Iā€™m using an overglorified laser gun due to all the projectiles but maybe thatā€™s just my problem personally.

It is, however, the most enjoyable thing to do in the game right now which is why I havenā€™t touched it in awhile. I used to have a passion for it, but now it just feels bad.

i dont like it
1, because of meta
1.1, because of powercreep
1.1.1, because certain stuff are really difficult to balance

2, gankers
90% of my pvp experience is with gankers/spawnkillers

there was only once time when i did enjoy pvp, but that was because the opponent was ā€˜beatableā€™ in my eyes
either someone is low level, or overpowered, or somehow both

17

I prefer fighting with schlongs not magic, fighting styles or weapons

18

PvP is an acquired taste for sure, but Iā€™d say itā€™s overall pretty alright.

19

very few people were and those who do are just wrong

20

I donā€™t care about (false, I care when it changes how pve would which is probably every change but I dunno anything about pvp so this opinion is probably extremely stinky)
