    Btw silence 5% doesnt proc as much as the 10% one of course (the 10% one is really a pain) but it still procs fine enough. Maybe the 10% one should be removed after all.

    remove the 10% godstones and keep the 5% and see what will happen. or just lower the 10% to that.
    played on other servers before with no godstones and was amazing to not loose cus a godstone proc 6 times during a fight.

    if not, nope unfair and let them be for what it is

    I agree with you that the proc chance is too much but you can still simply remove GS effects through Healing pots so I don't find any reason for it as a bother except its proc chance. It eventually happens anyway when there's a sorc/SM/ranger = silence+stumble/stun.

    you have your point, but then again, every skill/pots has cd, if you get hit again that would mean dead.

    Actually I am one of the 10% godstone users particularly Silence on my Gladiator and Cleric (I prefer paralyze godstone on my Sorcerer). With my Gladiator it procs like hell (I have a very low MACC with it so I don't think it's only about MACC that triggers the high percentage of godstone proc) but with my Cleric, as I kept saying before, it rarely procs.

    I and my husband never bought 10% godstones using our own credits. We bought them from other people who probably bought it with their own credits or bought it to others who bought it using their credits. But I feel for those who spent thousands of Credits just to buy an item that they see fit in PvP then will be removed ~ where will their credits go?? Just gone with the wind.

    I agree as well how cheap it looks if you win a 1v1 or 2v1 just because of the godstone proc but I don't agree with the complete removal of it. I think the win-win option here is to make the 10% proc a bit lower. Leave the 5% as it is and make 10 6% or 5.5% :p It will still proc but not as crazy as now.

    True. Sometimes what happens to me is, after potting out the 1st proc, the 2nd will come and I can't remove it anymore since my pots is on CD.

    I don't think it will be any refound in case... maybe an "ingame compensation"...

    Anyway godstones suck... even en retail, with the 5% silence or 2% paralyze.. ppl complained...

    I don't think they will be removed, i guess they bring a lot of money to the server.

    But you do realize that it is a mask the administrators are using to somehow escape being persecuted by authorities. Still they agree to it so well... It's actually a two-edge sword that can be used depending on the situation.

    I honestly hate this godstone with a freaking passion. Trust me when I say this, you can ask legion mates when we're pvping and I've got a string of curse words flowing from my mouth on Axon cause of the damn thing. It's incredibly annoying. I play spiritmaster. When 90% of the FREAKING server has 10% silence godstones, I'm the FIRST target, meaning everyone in that stupid zerg is targeting me first. Guess who's silence-locked? Me. Guess who gets bursted down in 2 seconds because of silence? Me.

    It is like fear. I understand people hate fearbombers and I'm totally in agreement with it being OP, but, I don't really do it that often in pvp unless I'm going up against extremely uneven odds. Booleanisfun/Intraining and I duel all the time and I won't let him use his stupid silence weap. xD We actually tested the stupid thing, and yeah, that godstone really does proc every 3 hits, I've got an MA build and I'm not changing it because well...yeah I need to be MA. -_-"

    Lol? RS has a 30second cd. GHPs have 30s cd. So going up against a zerg, first 20 seconds I'm silenced, pot out, the next 30 seconds we're out there is a problem because now I don't have any protection against it. Being silence-locked isn't fun -_- you should try it sometime and then tell me how you feel. I'm alright with being the first target, but when we have stupid OP things like this, it makes me wanna quit. Damn things have GOT to go.

    tl;dr: I hate them. Get rid of them.

    Suggestion: If the decision is to not remove them, then I don't think we should lower the proc rate. I think the time that you're silenced should be reduced. Maybe to 2~3 seconds. That would be fine to kite, 10 seconds is not okay. That's a long time in pvp lol. Or we could reduce it entirely, which I love the idea of: 5% -- 2-3second silence. >=)

    This is the truth. My poor ears were virgins before I played with Sabrina. Now they have been defiled by her tainted words q_q.

    I agree with everyone that 10% is just too much of a chance to land. Think about it--that is 1 out of every 10 hits, in theory. How many attacks can a weaving sin get in in a couple of seconds? Even my glad can get in 10 hits with ease if I catch the person off guard. Now, this is SUPPOSED to be how it goes, and that's worst case scenario. That is not even counting when the damn stone stacks. Shit, I wish I could have a 1/10 chance minimum for everything in life. Those odds are fantastic.

    What should be some is complete purging of the stone. But in that same light, make the 5% blind and silence stones cash shop only. That way, you aren't really losing anything. People will still need to pay for them, but they won't have a ridiculously unfair advantage.

    I think MA messes with the chances. It feels like the formula is
    ProcChance = (Base Percentage + (MA/100))

    2k MA = 30% chance to proc. The reason that it doesn't feel like 20% with 1k MA is because 1k MA would get resisted way more often and has a very low chance to pass MR.

    There a nightmare especially with a sin who has one on each weap :( had a sin keep me in constant silence literally there was no let up the damn godstones must of been proccing every other hit or something insane..

    should lower it to something more manageable like 2% proc chance with 2-3 secs silence

    first of all... godstones are working really wrong right now... they are affected by magic accuracy and magic resist... they are not suppost to be like that... another thing is that the process rate is really high....

    they need to fix those things...

    Id rather see them dropped to 5% since pvp has seemed like a game of chance with the silence godstones. However I wouldn't miss them if they were removed entirely from the game.

    Oh, and "carl wont give you abg sets for disagreeing with the OP"
    Had to say it, been a long time since I said that to you. Though its always in game.


    Edit: I would really like having MR/MA not affecting proc rate too, that's just dumb.
