The New World pvp meta is shifting fast in 1.05. We’re seeing lots of mages and tanks aren’t as tanky anymore. The patch fixed broken mage abilities which made them more powerful.

If you were wondering what’s the strongest new world class / weapon, right now it’s starting to look like ranged DPS are suddenly much more valuable.

  1. So since bugs/exploits got fixed now all of a sudden Mage is OP, okay lol. Let’s just nerf them now and then dexxers next.
    Mages are supposed to do a lot of damage. If anything there should be a rogue build to counter the glass cannons, if not then that needs to be addressed..not I suck so we should nerf the class that’s actually working as intended.

  2. Lmao, resilience and onyx damage reductions were BOTH bugs. Per developers. Now people are crying about mages? Lmao.

    I was playing mage even when fire pillar and fire ball was missing every other one.

    Suck it up buttercups.

    A GAxe will wreck me in 3-4 hits, that's the trade off for being able to kite and do high DPS.

    Why the hell should a GAxe be able to have stupid damage resistance, multiple speed perks passive/active, and be able to do massive burst damage?

    GAxe users weren't saying crap about that prior to the bug fixes

  3. can confirm Mages Op. My company took over a zone yesterday and it’s the fastest zone take in our server at 13mins with no bugs or exploits backing up either side. Like 5 best players on our faction and known across the server have been mages but now they are just crazy strong

  4. Mage has always been good, people were just so stuck on using the bugged/meta weapons & armor for pvp that most people didn't even want to try something different. only 2% of players had maxed out the fire staff up till the other day lol.

  5. Void was basicly cheating whit 3rd party programm before
    Noch Voidarmor is just broken ingame mechanic
    Like people telling me that they arent tanky anymore lmao stfu
    my crits deal less then my auto attacks what you lot on about
    '' Mages op Copium, I cant facetank 30 hits anymore mages broken "
    STFU

    mages still need 10+ hits to kill a full voidbent
    if he got healing and a brain to use pots
    you need like 20 autos to take him down
    If he uses the right gem and gemdust we back to the old days were you take no damage

    Basicly meaning Melees still OP /strong as fck while me as a mage still gets 2 hit

  6. The meta is, run heavy, get all the mobility and all the damage. It's dumb af. Heavy needs to be penalized more because I'm not about this bunker nuke sh!t. I have 370 Dex, some int, and con, and I can't hit these tanks for more than 800-1.2k. Meanwhile they're zipping across the map and smacking me for 3k with a great axe. We shouldnt be forced into playing specific builds

  7. Nothing against you but your usage of the warhammer is pretty bad. With the launch attack in the air you stun them which gives you enough time for a heavy attack on them and than use your second ability to clash them to the ground. You get a lot more dmg with stragey like that. Also use more heavy attacks instead of light attacks. the heavy attack pulls you to the target 1-2 meters. light attacks do not do that. I almost win every pvp match with the hammer. I am only afraid of the bow, berserker mode (anti cc) and othe warhammer users. I was mage before and actually it really sucked. The damage output of fire and ice wasnt that great especially in pve. Even now fire mages tell me like they make 4k dmg to enemys with 300 intelligence. I make 2,5k as a tank with 200 constituion….

  8. There needs to be more ways to mitigate and cancel healing so that healing is nerfed but only for pvp. Also its odd axes have tracking but ranged dont? There should be tracking but only for when a player uses one of their super fast snap abilities

  9. Yea on my server, a company called 123 (green) took over 6 territories in about a week, using mostly warhammer/great axe (hatchets last week when they were bugged), and little to no mages. Weird.

  10. I feel that bows and muskets would generaly counter mages to a degree however bows and muskets kinda bad atm might be due to everyone using heavy armor making them bad though i think dex weapons need armor penetration on them, so dex weapons better agaist heavy armor as a counter to that and giving them a buff currently the underpowered weapons list normal are all the dex weapons lol
    Mages counter melee with there control ability
    Range counter mages
    melee counter range

    Should be somewhat how it should sit i feel

  11. Waaa they fixed my broken perk and now im not as tanky and die waa nerf everything so i can be tanky and have enough dps and sustain to kill everything again only thing thats broken about mages is the ice gauntlet inf blocking if anything is a problem its heavy armour is 2 good nages dont die fast as they are all in heavy armour if they were in light or med they would be 1 or 2 shot so if anything fix the gear not nerf the weapons
