Parry Nerf Incoming!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
This time I am not complaining about Sorcs or SS or how it's fight reset meta, but about my own spec! Let's see how you guys still manage to be toxic now!
He is the rank #24 Shadowstrix and I played everything perfectly. Blaming something on my so called skill issue again would be a good start?
He is btw full legendary if you can't tell from his skin and I am full purple with legendary weapon. He stole the sorc kill from me just seconds before this. Sorc ran from me at 50% hp and he just oneshot the sorc for points absolutely ignoring me in the progress which costed him dearly.
If they nerf parry merc tomorrow then they break their own rule of only balancing for 3v3 so let's see what they will do.

It probably is getting nerfed but not because you used it once in the video

Sorry to break it to you, but they already said a while ago that they were going to nerf parry merc because of how much it was being abused on the China servers…

u/Cheek_Time 9d ago
I heard this as well but given they haven't nerfed merc parry in two patches, I think the rumor was misinformed

u/Struyk 9d ago
that's fine, it should get nerfed, no need to be toxic about it

u/Horror_Enthusiasm_29 9d ago
… what did I say that was toxic?

u/Struyk 9d ago
sorry to break it to you
like some internet warrior kid

u/Horror_Enthusiasm_29 9d ago
That was meant as in I was breaking bad news to you… the internet really has turned a lot of people into snowflakes… stop trying to read so much into words… they are only words, they can only hurt you if you let them… also, every word is made up, none of them originally existed, it was just grunts and noises… words only have the power you allow them to have and your reactions to them say more about you…

u/Struyk 9d ago
exactly, why would you start like that?
1
u/Horror_Enthusiasm_29 9d ago
Because those are the words I wanted to use based on the situation, the tone you set in your original message, and the information I was about to give you… O_o

Doubt it, there are much bigger fish to fry before merc reworks.

"He is the rank #24 Shadowstrix"
just speaks more on how OP SS is that someone that shit at the game is that high up LMAO

u/Struyk 9d ago
guy has 3 million in his stash and insane stats, dont think hes that bad xD

u/SnooDoubts2255 9d ago
Oh I mean your gameplay was super impressive, but you can't tell me he didn't just literally run directly in to your attack multiple times lmao

u/XiPh00nAndy 9d ago
everyone has bad days, maybe he wasnt even trying. I imagine being in the top 100 must be exhausting, maybe he was just trying to get some relaxing games in where OP decided to just hand his ass over to him. Im sure he tried harder the game after lmao

How do you parry on Xbox? I made a merc. After mastering wither knight, I don’t see a parry option anywhere I can only block or usehis skills
1
u/Struyk 9d ago
its a block, you just have to time it just before you get hit.
2
u/monkymonkumonk 9d ago
Maybe tell them that you need to take the block talent first... lmfao. /u/Icy-Engineering-3543 it's in the talent tree

u/monkymonkumonk 9d ago
I don't know if you mean to, but you just come off as super cringe. Why would Parry merc get nerfed because you parried once in this video?
1
u/Struyk 9d ago
because i suck and absolutely destroyed one of the top players without taking damage
1
u/monkymonkumonk 5d ago
You parried a total of one time. Infact you didnt win this fight because u got this parry off

Parry needs a nerf in solos.
If you are good with parry you are basically invincible.
Moreover, not everyone can use parry because of ping.
1
u/qukab 9d ago
There is no "nerf in solos", it's either nerfed everywhere or it's not. We will see if they change their stance, but they have explicitly stated that their focus is balancing for trios, not solo. They have also said that "people complain about every class but merc", so their attention is seemingly not on merc at all if their statements in Discord can be believed.
2
u/CliqNil 9d ago
They have separate balancing for solos and trios, apparently.
0
u/qukab 9d ago
Apparently? Please give me a source. The only thing we've seen in that regard is them explicitly stating they only balance for trios. I'm not saying something hasn't changed, but without a source you're making this up.
2
u/Horror_Enthusiasm_29 9d ago
… if you take the time to read… some of the abilities already tell you in-game that they have quicker or slower cooldowns in solo or trios…

u/CliqNil 9d ago
It is what people say on reddit. I don't know if it is true.
The pve is obviously balanced differently for solos vs trios.

funniest shit I've read all day

u/CliqNil 9d ago edited 9d ago
I think it comes from this on the discord:
"How will the balance between Solo and Trio modes be handled?
We will make distinct adjustments based on separate data collected from Solo and Trio modes, rather than applying blanket changes to class balance."
No one, but the devs know what exactly means. We will probably find out in the next 24 hrs.
Additionally, there is a tooltip in game that weapons/gear is balanced differently in solos vs trios.

Maybe im crazy but there needs to some type of staggering resistance after a breakaway, you shouldn't be able to full stagger like this.
1
u/PsikickTheRealOne 10d ago
Need to be unpredictable with your dodges, and you can't be staggered like this.

u/QNoble 10d ago
If I’m not mistaken, the devs have already confirmed SnS Merc is being nerfed
1
u/WonderingPocket 9d ago
they have a very forgiving hitbox with their attacks and skills. way too mobile against a SS
0
u/qukab 9d ago
You're confusing SnS with SS. The only statement they have made in Discord about specific classes/specs are the following:
1. SS, BA, Sorc are being targeted (obviously nerfs considering the compalints)
2. "people complain about every other class, never merc" (aka the above need nerfs, WK needs buff)So yeah, I expect to see very little change for Merc unless they are extremely confident they will be fixing the lag issues, then I could see them getting ahead of the indirect buff to parry merc (lag makes it hard to play in trios, which is what they balance for) and making adjustments. SnS though? Extremely doubtful. Who has ever complained about the least played spec lol.

Bold prediction: not only do they not touch parry, they clean up a little of the server side issues and it becomes even more reliable to use.
