counter argument, it looks cool
It looks cool, but man is it unfun to deal with
fun when you are on the other end, especially with max destruction gems
Again, this wouldn’t be half the problem it is if the game was PVE-focused. Because then the receiving end wouldn’t matter.
Though this is probably useless to the conversation, I feel like one thing that is overlooked a bit with balancing is that this game is also PvE focused, and when something gets overnerfed because of PvP it feels ass everywhere else even if it’s balanced in PvP. I know this doesn’t really matter much to the game, but when the game is meant to have partially a PvE focus it’s going to feel ass when everything feels weaker due to something being changed because of a PvP placement.
Maybe I’m overthinking it when I say this, but I’m mostly just afraid that everything is going to feel weak by the end of the game both in PvP and in PvE, and I don’t think that the game would be very enjoyable by then. I just hope something is done before then that makes pvp and pve enjoyable and balanced enough.

I have very high hopes for full release despite some of the games current small flaws! It will take a long time but AO will out of early access and im sure some of the stuff addressed here will come in it

yeah stay hopeful ig
It’s really bloody difficult to keep something effective at low/unskilled levels when you neuter it to try and counter high-level play.
Again, the game design unfortunately conflicts with itself.

Honestly this is why Cernyx is my favorite boss. He actually throws you into the air and feels like he’s this “intense” knockback earth mage

Shoot me if I ever say that again
Honestly what I thought at one point, and your argument was exactly the same reason I thought it should be done that way. Features are fine and all, but testing requires time. Time that the testers just don’t have if you do them last minute. Which results in those same balance changes piling up into the next update, with maybe even more changes being requested.
Off the top of my head, I can’t think of one thing that needs to be balanced, aside from complete revamps.
I just want more features to play with.
