Re: Plants Suck
Meh. In the first week of my gameplay i spammed toxic peashooter because seemed very quickly to be used, but as long as i understood the game i got the fact he has extremely limits, the first limit his the character overall. I bet he was very strong in the first gw1 and eventually get nerfed, the character is annoying to play against, and usually things annoying to play against are usually hateable and getting stupid nerfs. We already talked in another thread about this, fact is they mostly ignore a lots of factors.
That character is pratically useless.
Now ill explain how that character seems to be more effective that he really does.
In order to get so many vanquishes you have to do kills.. no matter your kill/damage partecipation.. your toxic dot only to Kill steal from your allies :P
Whenever you see something getting close to you, run like a bi*** using your hype.
Continue spamming your RT button, trying to hit something from the other side of the map. No matter if your team-mates are losing because they lack a team-mate on the frontlin, no matter if you could just have pick a Cactus, e, just play like a bi*** . With the toxic working so many seconds and apply to all targets is not hard to get not deserved kills or assist.
If this game will eventually have a chat i would imagine.
"omg Toxic peashooter, pls try focus"
"no fk u, im the carry, i need to be safe"
Meanwhile all plants die and toxic runs away with hype
"gg report toxic pea shooter, what a noob, pls l2p"
"stfu im an expert, i carry this"-
Fire PeaShooter is better, just harder because small blast radius, but to compensante it reward you more, since fire procs do more damage.
Plasma, Law and Agent are fairly better, but hard to use. But whenever you see someone using them correctly you notice the real difference.
Fact is, since they are not going to ruin your game so often you accept the fact they are stronger.
They have higher skillceiling, theorically they should be nerfed too, but, people feedback matters.
Also at any moba games you know kills doesnt mean nothing. Always, objectives DO win. This is why devs already says that class is balanced.
Ah to be clear, in team vanquish objectives do not win, but you have to consider all DAMAGE DEALT, DAMAGE TAKEN, UTILITY GIVE to the team and so on.
PeaShooter is a damage dealer class, doesnt bring anything else. I consider Toxic more like an utility character. He can force people to get off from the walls and forcing you to go all in or go back, more than a raw damage dealer. He has AoE for sure, but a lots of character have more consistent AoE damage.
Because that class is just noob friendly, and IMHO not even close to be balanced, but slightly UP, but since he's easier, everyone can have decent result.
