Well the damage should definitely be lowered, but hopefully it won't all be nerfed into worthless oblivion.

But we're talking (at least partially) about Coercers here. Of course it will be.

Its pathetic to see the people who oneshoted coercers for months are now complaining to get their favour returned. Even with full fabled set from eof a coercer would survive a snipershot in less then 5% of the situations and would die to a swashbuckler before his initial cheapshot wore off. And now a coercer usualy dies with 1 bow attack and noone seem to find that strange, but about oneshoting pets (which are restricted to one zone and going probably to be make no charm in next few days) everybody is crying like a baby. Yeah soe pretty much screwed it up with pvp damage, but look into the mirror you newbs before you complain about others oneshoting you. And how many rangers did stop useing snipershot or swashbucker inspiration when it was their oneshotting ticket eh ?? Soe fucked it up again live with or leave it.

They were indirectly nerfed when they brought in the new resist system which made their spells do an average of half the previous damage.

Its prety much the same with the caster pets in rok. They only hit hard if you are more then 5 levels below it. A level 75 caster pet will barely scratch a level 80 player and 9 of 10 of its spells will be resisted. They only look overpowerd when you send a level 83 caster pet on a level 75 player, then they are hitting for solid 2-3k and wont get resisted. I agree the oneshoting pets are stupid and should be fixed, but sniper shot was abused till its got fixed so give the poor coercers some love as long as it lasts ;). And the pets ca only oneshot players up to level 75. Everything above will need 2 hits

Not saying you're full of shit, but if the GM's really didn't want people abusing something they should make it commonly known that it IS in fact abusing a broken mechanic and therefor an exploit. Anyone can come here and say all day a GM said this or that, but that doesn't mean shit. Put it on the server MOTD or a thread about it on the official forums, something a little more substantial then the lvl 70-79 exile chat. You see what I'm saying?

Now how I see it, yes its a bit over the top, and again untill something official is made regarding it, coercers should use it as much as possible, as its been stated before scouts used to be able to destroy clothys in under 2-3 seconds without even trying. People were never banned for thugging people at cloud pads, using jump boots, using items to keep their health below 50% (which some people still do), or using god abilities pre-nerf (especially rallos deathsave one). Point is lots of things have been nerfed due to overwhelming PvP advantages throughout the game and people didn't get banned for them, why, my guess is because there was NEVER anything official put out that it is in fact abusing said items/abilities.

PvP servers are down atm, they are probably nerfing these pets now (OR FOR THE LOVE OF GOD FIXING THE LOGIN SERVER/ZONING ISSUES) Honestly I hope they don't nerf them too much, 10-15k is OP, 6-8k imho is devisteing as its meant to be, but much more reasonable.

My god I had fun with them the other night. Finally got high enougth to charm these for any reasonable duration. Was grinding ^^^ mobs 11 level higher than me. XP wasn't that great tho considering. Managed to get 3 level 70 tokens, 5 level 60s and some fame in about 1 hour, which is pretty crazy considering I was only level 55.

I'll have to see if Im high enough to do some damage with the new RoK ones.

If you can hold one of the one shot mobs (lowest is lvl 74 ones)... then you will be a level 55 coercer god.

yes, it's very funny what happens when the almighty scouts get one shotted.

anyone who plays a cloth class on pvp server is an idiot, you will never be powerful and if you are, it will last 1 day till the scout tears brand you an exploiter.

It is impossible to kill a coercer in 1 hit as a swashbuckler. However, it is possible to kill a coercer before he can click the pet attack button.

All of a sudden these shitty coercers are getting general and master titles because you can own full groups and LITERALLY 1 shot someone. Jumping a coercer with your buffs that last for 10 seconds and dropping him before he can press 1 button is currently the only way to kill them. I told you from day 1 that it was an exploit, and I've talked to Gaunsky personally who has verified that is indeed an exploit.

Maybe if you didn't suck ass at your class you wouldn't need to abuse broken game mechanics for insta kills.
