Allods Online Forum

The more I read, the more I feel that Allods will die in my eyes in patch 7. I like being independent, not relying on a punch of people to be able to do stuff. I know this topic is about PvP, but if same goes even remotely similar with pve content - the game is turning into something intolerable for me personally. I've always hated pure support/ccs classes as they are typically very lousy to level... How will they do Private Allod demons for example? (are private allods even existing in patch 7?)

Ps. There has been a lot of new Russians flooding to New Frontier server - they've all said they hate patch 7 and what it did to the game. And this isn't imagination, I've spoken with them in Howlem and Evermeet Isle... Only time will tell but my heart is sinking already.

so as heal, i can go afk each battle while cc will work on me and rest is fighting?

excactly! and doubling this in gravity with pointing at the "punch" u have to relie on here some times.
its becomming more and more guildrelated content, very very bad imo no good solution to get rid of sololeechers.

summi, bard, druid, engi, pala, scout were pure joy for me to level to max...
i suffered a bit with singletarget from warrior, psi, mage...
but i see your point, and so they gave free waters at maxlvl i thought?

REALLY? thats an incredible bad news if russians come here just for the last months before patch 7 will ruin this server too...

I wonder what they hope to accomplish. This version either gets update to 7.0 too or gets closed down. It will happen before they get to any reasonable level here.

Also, I don't get why you people get sad.
If you fight in a bunch of random people against other bunch of random people, it will be exactly the same as now since neither will be able to take any advantage of the new system. If a coordinated group fights against a bunch of random people they will win 9 out of 10 times in 6.0 (there can be a rare case of the random group being much better geared and that making the difference).

Only things that change is when two coordinated groups fight - the one who's better coordinated will win instead of the one who has better gear. And that 9 out of 10 becomes 10 out of 10 vs randoms.

Oh and I almost forgot about one more case (only affecting f2p): A less cash-shopped but better skilled group will decimate a brainless but super cash-shopped group, because the battle is going to be about something more than "pure throughput".

That really depends what you are hoping to achieve in PvE. It's true, the astral aspect might be very dull of casual/solo PvE players (since there're about 4 astral islands so far, later on half the gear you get is from raids), but there's also a new solo feature - Distortions. It's entirely solo instance, the difficulty is tailored around that as well - there aren't even mercenaries available.

You generally don't level as pure support or CC (just as you wouldn't level as full healer). By the time you're level 70 and you have Private Allod, you can have enough stats for a hybrid build. Support does lower damage than pure DPS, but they're by no means crippled to a point where they can't kill solo monsters. By the time you have Private Allod, you're supposed to have Greatness as well, so you can make it that you have a full support and a full DPS or a hybrid build.
Rest assured that these hybrid builds -mostly used for PvP, but I can imagine they're fine for soloing as well - are more than capable from what we've seen on BGs.
Private Allods still exist just like before, however the Mazes are still disabled on Russian servers. From what I can tell the devs want to change a thing or two about mazes, so you can expect them to return in 7.0.2 or so.

The 7.0 patch is certainly not without its flaws, but having some Russians join the 6.0 does not mean you are not going to enjoy it. It's a simple case of the fact it's impossible to satisfy everyone's needs.
I feel like they've spent too much time and resources on reworking the classes to a point where it's harmful for both the PvE and PvP content, but we'll just have to see for ourselves how it actually plays.

I'm rolling this back to the original topic really quickly. This happened to me, I think last Friday. It wasn't just me either, a bunch of people were kicked out similar to my rune/gs (6:5/60k). Which I always thought was average for someone who's only played for 2 months and hasn't dropped any irl money into it. Then suddenly a group of players all of whom belonged to the same guild and had similar names started kicking players from the team and then me.

While I can understand WHY they did it, it's still pretty god damn rude to do it without an apology. Plus the whole deserter debuff actually is a little stupid.

I still remember the names of the players and the guild, and if this happened to you around this weekend, it's probably the same dickbags and you probably already know their names/guild.

let me guess.... the names are naked(something)

Stop being assholes everyone, seriously.

why are you allowed to insult people ? because you are full cash shop ?

Quoted from "IAmGroot"

I have been so disgusted with so many players recently in this game

If those players are saying that everyone are assholes, I understand you. Now, have a look in the mirror

Quoted from "Hiren"

Actually most classes are roughly the same in terms of complexity or difficulty.

Lol.
Scout is the class the most brainless : spamming instat aoe and dot like a no-brain and make hit-and-run
Same for palas. many noobs are pvping on holy tank build to make their class over-imba towards the others: a

Quoted from "Hiren"

In the end you shouldn't really worry about class balancing

palatank is unkillable on pvp with this patch

Stop looking for fights with people. If you have nothing useful to say; do not say anything at all.
