The mere fact that it only has to be dropped once in range to render any enchantment heavy build obsolete is enough of a factor to make it horribe for balance/gameplay.

Seriously if you don't think that NR is unbalanced and screwing over gameplay you really don't understand pvp. I shouldn't need to write more on this with it having been said so many times; if you don't understand why go look at the balance thread by Zrave.

As for enchantment removal outside of NR, it sucks, plain and simple and needs buffing. KOR did not dominate the last bwe just because they had good players/teamwork.

I'm going to link to that thread here, so that no one has an excuse to not read it.

Its annoying!

Yes, complain about rangers needing a nerf! I knew it was gonna happen soon! That'll teach you all not to underestimate a part of the game so early in it's release. Oh and it'll also teach you guys not to ignore rangers in PVP anylonger. =) Suffer, muhaha!. Hahaha. Just teasing.

I've found the greatest use for a W/Mo is "farming". Solo farming at that. While I have to agree in PVP a warrior does seem pretty low on the scale of enjoyment, in PVE they are a blast and don't get "exploited" by cheap socalled tactics or strategy like 100 spirit builds. lol I think in PVP Mezzers are the most fun to play, I love shatter enchantments, especially using them on elementalists and monks.

But, even playing my ranger in PVP I won't stoop to the lowness of spamming spirits of any kind or running like a scared chicken when I'm the last one left and have no rez or any ability to win, I stand there and fight with honor.

There has always been an easy way to deal with rituals...

But then it got removed and throughout ALL of this complaining and ranting and spamming, VERY FEW people have asked about it.

For such an overpowered skill, you need a VERY devastating counter designed specifically for it.

Hence I post this again since I don't see enough people posting it.

Bring back Unnatural Signet.

Have it just SLAY the entire MAP of nature rituals.

If the enemy is going to use a skill set that renders everyone moot points, then by all means, bring the COUNTER to said strategy and make the enemy pay for not bringing any contingency plans.

And with that, you would probably see the end of the super annoying ranger spirit spam build.

It is frustrating, I am forced to be a putrid guy and nothing else. It really effects more than just enchanters/cursers... it also affects the warriors who depend on rigor mortis and the like to actually be able to sneak hits in past guardian, aegis, piles of auras and blinding spells, etc.

Was fun while it lasted, then it descended into flames.
Closed.
Hope we all learned something about the game at least.
