Nerf/Monk incombat run speed pls.

nisox · 12-03-2007, 01:23 PM

Wtf is up with not having monk's incombat run speed nerfed? when all other incombat run speeds where nerfed.

They can just pretty much sprint fd fd fd and run away when they are about to lose. And they cna just sprint and do insane dps in pvp and keep hitting u while u are trying to kite them.

WTF is up with that bullshit.

Monk's 70% sprint only works if they are not engaged in PvP combat. Otherwise, monks sprint at 40% like everyone else.

Not gonna bother with the rest of your complaints as they're very unreasonable, especially when coming from someone who plays a class with extreme DPS, evac and track.

You are wrong, Monks get 70% sprint speed in pvp combat.

There is no way to stop a monk when they start lossing to just tsunami and sprint away.

This isnt a matter of what class has what.

This is a matter of it being used in a similar way as Brigands use to use Safe house when it first came out and all other evacs didnt work in combat.

Ok.

I play a monk and it's not supposed to be 70% when engaged in PvP combat. Tsunami also does not work unless you are in combat.

I haven't played my monk in a few days, so maybe something is broke. I'll go and check it myself and post again when I've done it.

lol tsunami not working pvp lolololol

Ok let me state this once, and try to understand the conditions before u guys throw in different stuff.

First a monk's 65%-70% sprint speed Does work in pvp combat!!!.

Second lets say a monk is engaged in pvp combat, now he can pop Tsunami, when he is about to lose, so he doesnt get hit, and then he can just sprint away from the fight without getting hit. No other class can catch up to them at 70% sprint speed, once they are in combat.

Third, by the time you get a monk down to low health even after he has healed for about 40%-50% health, u have pretty much used all ur roots or stifles or snares on him, and u are low on power, and he is pretty much immune to those or ur CAs are not up again. Even if u do land a root or snare by luck, he can just use freedom of action and run away again.

In, conclusion i call this bull shit. Pretty much similar to when safehouse or use to work in pvp combat.

P.S. i am gona ignore what necodemus said.

dude your a faggot, its not fucking in combat run speed - its SPRINT run speed. Yes it works in combat, but its not free of charge like in combat run speed - it still drains the shit out of our power like everyone else. And please tell me when u find another monk who pwns ur faces off with sprint like I do. Guarantee you wont find them, 70% is not enough to catch someone at 50% without being out of power way before u kill them. Its one of the few skill based manuevers that are still in the game and I know how to time it right and pwn ur face- evac next time thats what its for.
Maybe I should make a post about snare, Wahhhh they snared me and caught me while they were in combat and I was running at 90%. NERF SNARE PLEASE!
Just stfu u whiney biotch
.
Edit: PS I forgot to mention, in case you werent aware - monks dont get a snare at all or a root that lasts longer then 3 seconds (majority of monks wont have it more then 2.4 sec and some not at all). So to fucking complain about the absolute ONLY ability we have to catch players who dont engage is fucking outrageous. I will battle this til the end and ontop of that your just a big fucking douche for even bringing it up.

The only reason u got me cause there was a swashy and a paladin behind you. And i have very little problem if you use it offensively.

What i am pissed about is that this yellow monk came charging me and i was about to own him, but then he just tsunamis and sprints away.

Wtf is that.

And yea sprint costs power, but its 50% less power with the AAs. So most of the time you losing very little.

Incorrect. Only the initial power cost (The activation fee, if you will) is reduced by 50%. The rest of sprint's mana cost ticks as usual.
