    What the heck do areas matter? What were they supposed to add as new content? Loading screens? Areas equally benefit Pve and PvP. Look at what they fixed/nerfed, and honestly tell me that you think most of the significant changes were mainly for PvE.

    I can't OHKO backstab forest NPCs anymore, so there's that...

    They make PvE more difficult, and also change PvP. I can't really say if they were intended for PvP other than the
    Spoiler:
    changes, because that one wouldn't change PvE much at all. So that one I think is all PvP. The rest though strike me as just making the game generally more difficult, which I agree with because in its current state its just too easy to

    So, I still disagree.

    95% of this thread hasn't been on topic. You may as well lock it (and 70% of the other threads on here).

    Actually most of us were actually discussing buffs. . .

    We can only try Prayer




    But I'm going to try and get a video up that crunches numbers and shows off buffs a bit more to get a little more info. Or even if there is no video, get some concrete numbers.

    Blaine's thread on Catalysts might help, I think in the resources thread there is one for SLB, and one for DMB.

    Which actually makes you a **** (just saying).

    Correct me if I'm wrong Buggy, but wasn't the OP concerned with discussing whether buffs were intended for PvP or PvE, not whether they were OP or not? Because that would actually make the majority of posts off-topic.

    Looked through the DMB thread, but it doesn't really track total damage with split and other stuff I am looking for like cast time.

    You know who knows, whoever runs Mugen. I suspect he actually knows the real damage algorithms.

    It was more putting forth the fact that they are unbalanced for the current player intended purpose of using them within duels, and seemed to be a tool that was meant to be used with greater utility in PvE or PvP invasions.

    So kind of, but it is kind of a broad topic at the same time.

    Well he has posted on the site before, and you can email him through Mugen I think and ask him. I'm pretty sure Blaine himself knows too, but he's like a ghost drifting in and out.

    I just think it's more so Blaine has lost interest in the game. He's played it a lot and cataloged so much, he's only human. I know I can't be entertained by any one thing that long haha.

    I'm feeling the same way lately as well, I'm barely playing till DLC, and after that I probably won't stick around super long. A man can only take so much Dark Souls.

    I'm not playing till the DLC either, also Blaine is actually in the Borderlands 2 thread right now, so messaging him might get his attention.
