UWSC going to be nerfed?
13 pages • Page 12
SF is fun. Mindless fun. And that suits some people better than others.
It's about the target market. Most of the good players have moved on to alternatives, but, Anet still needs to keep their remaining player base happy.
SF sin is all most remaining players know how to play so ANet can never take it away from them. If you're looking for diversity and challenge in a game, look elsewhere, because you wont find it here.

Feather farming nets you a similar profit, true, apart from the odd good drop from UWSC, but what do ppl feather farm with? yu Perma's (amongst other things) |

I think what most people here complaining don't understand is that Permas are completely useless in general PvE. It is only used in farming and SC, which, let's face it, is another type of farming. If there is a problem here, it is not about Permas but about th concept of farming. It's obvious that you can farm other places than UW and net similar if not higher profit. The reason people do UWSC instead is because it is not monotonous and presents at least a little challenge to the average player.
You can QQ all you want about how easy perma is for you. I don't really care what you think of the game, but at least be honest:
1) Permas do not actually hurt the so-called economy.
2) There are far easier farms that net just as good profit

You be crazy to think they are nerfing that. Can I have some of what you are smoking?

We have been discussing the MB ele at length, but as we see it, the problem is with the tiebreaker not the build. There are other builds that do the same thing as the MB ele, so just nerfing it isn't actually going to fix anything. So we are going to continue to work on the tiebreaker instead. Changes like that need more careful consideration than normal so it takes longer to get something onto Live. - Image:User Linsey Murdock sig.jpgLinsey talk 18:57, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

If it weren't for the ability to do SCs, a lot of players would have quit a long time ago.
The complaints people bring up against permas and UWSC are not actually arguments against permas and UWSC, but rather arguments against farming in general. Again, you can feather farm and net similar profit. But that's insanely boring and most people wouldn't be able to stand it. UWSC and other SCs allow people to "farm" while not being bored out of their minds.
If you kill SCs, farming will be relegated to people who are willing to perform utterly mindless tasks over and over again.
The only logical recourse the argument takes is that farming must necessarily be mindless and boring. If you think that, that's fine, but it's your opinion. If so, you need to go ahead and say it and stop hiding.

You're right. I'm glad were now in agreement. Now stop trying to kill what's left to enjoy in the game just because you don't enjoy it, Mr. troll wins flawless victory.
Getting an eblade or VSF from the chest is like winning the lottery. It's so rare, that it hardly affects the expected value from UWSC.

I want realm SC teams to be nerfed so other classes can actually play in those areas without being told SF or GTFO.
Screw the farmers, they've had their time |
Fix your own problems instead of QQing that its a problem with the game and demanding Anet screw over the majority (by your own argument, those who want to SC are the majority) to suit you.

Yeah, but, the problem here is that assassins in PvE are completely useless without SF. you said it yourself, SF or GTFO is how it is with assassins, not other classes. Other classes actually have a use in most everything else, including most other SC's. Maybe some even have more than one use! (besides paragons). Devoting most of a bar to dagger attacks is useless in PvE, and critscythe is decent but most groups would rather use something else.

If less than a full team is able to clear an area, something is up. No exception.

However, when 2 assassins are able to clear UW in 30 minutes, something is up, no exception.
