stupidsyrup Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Yeah so the Ravage root for both Vengeance and Carnage is just a wee bit OP. Last I checked Dodge means it purges all impairing effects, both movement and damaging. And yet....I'm still stuck to munch that damage. On my Sniper, nope I can't roll away, gotta eat that ****. The class was pretty good to begin with, but noob smashers whined that it sucks, when in reality it's got a higher skill cap than smash. So if Hold the Line allows me to leave, why won't any of my other abilities, mainly Dodge, allow me to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodge gives you 100% evasion, meaning the whole cast will miss. It probably should cleanse the root as well, but then again, who cares when that Warrior just spent a Ravage for nothing.

Ravage is melee damage. If you hit dodge, ravage misses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupidsyrup Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 Ravage is melee damage. If you hit dodge, ravage misses. Yeah and Force Shroud is suppose to be immune to tech attacks. Guess who gets Debilitated over the fire pit? Anyways, it would be nice if it missed, but alas, it does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EzioMessi Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 That's werid. Force Camo (Combat spec) clears Ravage root for me just fine. I think Dodge just broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, it would be nice if it missed, but alas, it does not. Force shroud is 100% force/tech resistance. Force/tech accuracy is typically around 105%. 5% of the time something is going to go through shroud. Never seen a warrior/knight running around with over 100% melee accuracy.

I don't believe it is broken like force shroud where "5%" of attacks have the chance to hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incorrect, shroud grants 200% resistance to force/tech damage. The tooltip say 100%, but if you check your defensive section of your character sheet while it's active, it will say 200%. Shroud is just broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raansu Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Anyways, it would be nice if it missed, but alas, it does not. Hahaha what? Are you sure you know the difference between white damage and force/tech? Chances are you took damage from someone else. Ravage will NOT hurt you if you have dodge up. Every swing will completely miss. As for purging roots. Chances are you popped it during the leap root. Ravage will miss, but you can still get rooted after dodge is activated. So basically you cleansed one root and got rooted again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The roots are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't dominate a veng/vig toon on your sniper, you should probably queue for a fp instead of pvp.

It won't be any different. MS/Ravage is retardedly easy to interrupt without unremitting; and even then the channel still has a .5 - 1 sec of vulnerability due to the leap animation.

Op healer uses Infiltrate, brings group to us. I get jumped, I can't roll away, I get screwed over. L2P issue, got it. Biggest thing here is maybe I should've just crouched, but it's not like I know where I need to set up shop when I can't see my enemy.

Telaan Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Ravage is essentially lowered to a 12s CD for vengeance now. Not sure how you think it wont be any different for them. Unremitting only activates after force leap/charge (15 sec cd, minimum range 8m). The amount of ms/ravages that are protected by unremitting will only increase in that you can leap->ms->ohs->pb->push (1 min cd)->leap->ms. After that opening rotation, it's back to business as usual. If you see a guardian/juggernaut using their 3 sec channelled ability without having completed a leap/charge, use any cc ability and their DPS goes down the toilet.

AdrianDmitruk Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 You said you had dodge up and was having ravage hit through it... Dodge is 100% evasion, but accuracy can go above 100%. Meaning if your opponent has enough accuracy there is a very small chance of getting hit with ravage even with evasion up. It's very rare but I have seen it happen to me on my scoundrel healer.

Cempa Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 A 3 sec root in wrong in light of the fact that root in this game is off resolve and it allows 3sec of free hits from other players. What if you are ranged? Say a Sorcerer? Root into root into choke into scream and you can't do a single thing about it...Barrier? OK done, what next? Bubble? 1 hit and its down and I just wasted 16 sec of the game doing nothing NEXT? The issue is not 1 Warrior, in a team setting you will have 2 or more, care to count how many sec they can root? You don't need to have 3 PvP viable trees for every class BW GET THAT OUT OF YOUR HEAD. 1 is ok 2 is plenty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZooMzy Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Only reason why Camo clears the root is because Ravage roots you for the duration, whether it misses or not, and Camo breaks the channel since you go invisible. If you break sight with it like Camoing out or stealthing out, you clear the root because Ravage gets interrupted, not because the Camo root clear fixed it. Also, don't tell the Veng jugs this, but you have a one second window to interrupt the Ravage at the very end of the channel after their buff from leaping. The GCD makes it to where if you save your stun/knockback for the final hit in the cast, you can actually stop it/break the channel from a knockback or stun.
