It'd be interesting to see what you guys think about the whole duelling scene in 1.07 so far.

For me, Archon wizards rape and everything seems ridiculously unbalanced - mostly 1-2 shotting.

[Mr.Mag]

hope blizz will set some dmg cap as it was on d2. it's not strategy so far, just luck or "better class".

[Nemra]

or we will have to introduce a rule to duel with 300 dps weapons ;p

I dont get it, Blizzcon team deathmatch seemed fine, how did they go from there to 1-2 shotting?

[Mr.Mag]

blizzcon was some time ago. now everyone has better items so dmg is higher. blizz didnt notice that

[Andre]

This is bullshit my character pretty oneshots everything

[Mr.Mag]

i cant even try to duel -> ERROR 12 - No license attached to account!

[Andre]

Problem is that they stated that pvp will not be balanced and they not expect to balance it even cause it's just an additional feature for them. And EP cannot make rules that will force people to sell their good eq for a crap one so the whole pvp scene is just fucked up(and i'm not even raging since i got a 105 k hp/4xxk dps dh, i just found it to be unfair and not skill based).
Pay to win at its finest, fuck this game seriously.

[Mr.Mag]

the worst thing is that we knew how pvp will look like and when it comes just as we thought, it's unacceptable

[Andre]

I wasn't expecting to be this retarded to be honest.
1 shotting everything is just lol.

[FeN]

i agree with u Andre, but tbh i was predicting that end.

[Mr.Mag]

dont you agree pvp cap would change much?

The only possible way for now

[RoGH]

Right now it seems a bit imba But w/e, we need to do our job, check pvp on ptr, than host some tours/league on europe realm (probably without any rules at the beggining ) and then move on, maybe blizzard will change or add something or we will get big group of players willing to play with some rules, like banning certain skills/item mods.

We can always make 1v1 league "almost naked - weapons only"

I just got a crazy idea, to do dueling simply at lower character levels like 50-59 or something, to prevent insta gibs. I dont see any other viable way. At least its not worth time to make rules in a state we have now.

For me D3 is a dead game. I dont play it for like 2 or 3 months now and every single patch/change they make i'm convinced i did right thing. Frankly when i look at this now, trying to make pvp enviroment in pve game when developers said they don't care about pvp is a bit crazy idea.
I'm guessing that tahey didn't relese arenas or other form of pvp simply cos they don't see any reasonable way to give ANY balnace. As someone mentioned earlier in other topic, even flat 90% damge reduction in pvp would still casue 30k-40k hits at some chars.

Itemisation in this game clearly isn't made so we can pvp (even in pve aspect it still suck for me).
My bet it such, that maybe and its maybe after an expansion comes out there will be any way to
do proper pvp. Though tbh i lost my hopes on this game.

[Mr.Mag]

is pvp possible on all levels?
