Did concentration got massacred even more today?

sorc happens to be the most op char with all stigmas, fallowed by ranger chanter and so on.. so they felt the nesesity of nerfing the nukes by 20% and somehow it also got nerfed a 40% for pve too even sorc dp burst got removed the extra dmg(when enemy/balaur) so they do sh*ty dmg now but its ok even doing 3k with glacial sorc still own even those glads with 16k hp and temps with 22k .. Fix concentration!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

No way concentration is working as it should be :s ^^

 

Actually i lost a 2v1 vs 2 gladiators that only used bows because all my skills were interrupted. tears were shed.

 

+1000. Happened to me as well... even in a 1 vs 1 against a ranger. MY EGO WAS RAGGEDD. :< :s

 

Just to Inform you my friend ... the EXTRA dmg part of skills ( if the target is balaur/asmo ) SHOULD NOT BE AFFECTED BY OUR MB ! ..This goes for Sm/Assasin and so on ....

The dmg dealt by Shadowburst/Lightburst Lumiel/Kaisinel wrath were bugged, because of Extra dmg beeing multypiled by MB.

Now it is working retail like > Basic dmg * ( 1 + (Mb/12)) + Extra dmg = PvE Dmg ... ( Sorc formula )

And to Inferno/Glacial/Flamespra nerf ... it is nerfed EXACTLY by 20% ... In PvP and in PvE too ( cuz % nerf is not affected by PvP reduction ) When you deal 20% less dmg in PvP you deal 20% less dmg in PvP too .. Simple math

Just to narrow your little misinterpretation

 

thats all i read. i could anticipate U trying to eat me there i dun really care that much what i care about is: Fix concentration!!!!!.

 

That is your problem my friend, I was just kindly pointing out your wrong perception of (not) recent nerf (for you ) fix ( for all those that know how how LB and other spells/abilities with extra dmg part work ) of LB/SB and other spells ...

Concentration is known problem for a long time, we even got Evil set´s reply, with nice formulation, but unfortunatelly that formulation wasn´t very comforting, and it even doesn ´t work ( Ranger´s dot of 32 dmg beeing able to interupt you .. if it was once per a day, ok korean RNG ...but every tick is just crazy )

 

DoTs are my big problem. Random rangers hit me with agonizing arrow, which effect i cannot dispel and i have to wait for a minute until it's gone, if i go to pvp before it is, it'll interrupt my casting and i'll get owned.

Concentration is f***ed up indeed. Shouldn't be like that...

As about the 3 nukes (Inferno/Flame Spray/Glacial Shard), 20% only?
Flame Spray's description says: Inflicts 3436 fire damage on a target within a 25m radius.
Magic Fist's description says: Strikes down a target immobilized in mid-air that is within 20m of you and inflicts [1602 - 1822] damage.

I tested it on a target with 0 Elem Resists (So you don't tell me flame spray deals less coz of the elemental resist which reduces damage)
Flame Spray - 3k
Magic Fist - 3.6k
Add 20% to Flame Spray.. 3000 + 20% = 3600, so by telling me it is nerfed by just 20%, you're telling me that a spell that says 3436 damage and a spell that says 1822 damage can hit the same?

Come on... sorcs are just nerfed more than they should. It is almost impossible to kill a cleric who uses elemental proof scrolls nowadays...

 

u were trying to eat me alive .. im not a chocolate cake uhmmm chocolate well from my exp aetheric spell is doing same dmg as lightburst now so since the base dmg is the same its safe to asume the (extra dmg) got removed its just an opinion u know not a thesis or something u might be thinking also im not talking about the ranger dot thing that stuff always been anoying but a ranger able to interrupt u with every hit not stun just every normal hit in a fight ...i dun think that can happen with full abg concentration stuff so yeah it needs fixing im just making the thread alive so gms notice the importance of it.. since sorc is so nerfed after all wouldnt u think so?

 

Scrolls and return are always supposed to be interrupted by being hit, normal spells aren't though.

 

Try to cast glacial shard when there are 3-4 SM or Cleric DoTs on you lol.
It'll get interrupted in the first second. ._.
Normal spells do get interrupted too, just not that much.. i mean, we got lots of concentration coz of our items and they still get interrupted on the first hit? that's ridiculous...

 

There has been no ninja-updating of the Siel of Lumiel realms, I've discussed this with Carl and we have not applied any secret updates recently.

Not to interrupt the tinfoil-hat teaparty or anything but you are mistaken ;p

As far as Concentration itself is concerned Evil and a couple of our testers have apparently tested this out and compared it to retail, as far as I'm aware they seem to believe the mechanic is functioning as NCSoft intended.
