Avatars being nerfed

[khaliss]

A gear check mob can potentially 1-round a top geared tank but not on a constant basis. For example, RZTW (PoTime) on live was one of those bosses that can chew up a tank rotation easily.

A retune is probably called for if it can 1-rounded a non-donator topgeared tank most of the time. If Jeido gets one-rounded 4 out of 5 attempts, then the mob needs to be toned down a little bit. If it's 1 out of 5 attempts, then probably not.

It seems like everyone wants to powder puff the raid game on the server, I'm done arguing to keep raids challenging and difficult. Nerf PoFear please, the next round of posts asking for it to happen is soon to come.

I thought the change was reversed?

[Seipher]

He just added flurry back, it still does a tiny bit less dmg

[Harney]

And by tiny bit you mean 2k per hit, which is 8k per round or 12k per flurry, even against a 45% defensive tank it's still 5.5kish damage that you just took off the top of his max round. If that's a tiny bit, then 30k hp is a tiny bit more than 24.5k. Lets not try and deceive people how significant the change was.

(11.5k x 6) x .45 = 31.05k, if the mob lands his absolute max hit on you, every single time. Before the nerf, (13.5k x 6) x .45 = 36.45k hp

So his max round is over 5k under what it used to be, I know you're a newb to the raid scene on this server, so I'm going to go ahead and spell out to you that 5k is a fucking ton of hp to just take off a mob's max round / flurry.

Jeido is sitting at 21k / 4.1k ac and succesfully tanked this mob. So now, after reducing his max round / flurry by 5k, you're basically going to allow a tov geared warrior to step up and have a shot at tanking a tier 5 boss and the hardest mob before Xegony? Like I said, if this is really what the majority of the server wants, then please, go in to Fear and get your ass handed to you and come and post about getting it nerfed. Because it's inevitable.

I was gonna say something, but I wont repeat myself. you are right Harney, changes (sometimes nerfs) are needed.
