You were expecting what, Emma? Big piles of albs queuing up to say "OMG! Wait! That's only as good as a merc or BM! Christ, quick, un-nerf zerkers!"
This is like going into a care home for paraplegics and complaining that you can't wiggle your little toe anymore.

Sent this to the Zerker TL, my basic reply from it is yes. That is what zerker damage is like in 1.62 ;p enjoy

****************************************************
This is a screen shot taken not long after my Zerker dinged 50, this is in patch 1.60 pre-nurf damage,

im buffed with 325 str, 139 qui, 50+13 hammer, 50+13 leftaxe, mp spiked hammer, mp hand axe.

www.thevortex.demon.co.uk/poor-dr00d.jpg

And this is what i worked out that damage to be post-nurf. patch 1.62.

Basicly ive taken off 42% damage from the mainhand styled hits which is what doublefrost has been reduced by.

You perform your Doublefrost perfectly.(+126)
You attack Downinshata with your hammer and hit for 219(+15)
You critical hit for an additional 174 damage!
You attack Downinshata with your axe and hit for 68(-15)
You critical hit for an additional 59 damage!

You perform your Doublefrost perfectly.(+136)
You attack Downinshata with your hammer and hit for 238(+16)
You critical hit for an additional 153 damage!
You just killed Downinshata!

Downinshata is a lvl 50 druid on prydwen in the EU.

Looks like the kind of damage I do in rvr - I do fine so I don't forsee any particular problems *shrug*

Try both hitting same target maybe? Who have str-relics?
Useless comparison

WRONG

mid slash vs alb chain is neutral as is all alb armour

alb slash vs mid studded has a bonus though.

Go away with your doctored screenshots and faked logs Emma!

Why are ppl whinning about merc vs zerker?

A merc has a great chance of killing any zerker and thats pre patch 1.62. A good merc would kill any zerker, now the mercs whinning are may be bad players or gimps? Sycho has no prob killing zerkers and i'm playing a merc atm and zerker drops fast even in frenzy mode.

Merc's didnt need a dmg boost and zerker didnt need a dmg nerf.

Damage seems fine to me and why are you using Doublefrost instead of SS/IB anyway, not like a druid/bard is likely to fight back in a Group vs. Group fight.

Oh and isnt aurora borealis third in backpos chain and procs a dd in 1.62 for zerkers?

I think Landshark made a very good point....

Aaaww Taz, cute char u have

 

[Berz Blackburn]

What point? a good merc beats a zerker anytime allready so with the upcoming patch zerker wont be able to kill any merc and even no BM's

Thanks !

and emma you sound like a broken record, go play your own infi on excal and do everyone on prydwen a favor and fo. LA got nerfed no one seems to care but you. Its a freaking game you sad tw*t.

 

[vukstinaitor]

375 damage fully buffed on a slashweak target isnt very impressive, you need more muscles.

 

[Bigade]

LA has been overpowered since release and well deserves a nerf, doesn't matter how many time you make threads like these it won't change nothing so why bother?

*duh*

What a stupid way of doing it. You can't just reduce figures by 42%. Logs have to be over multiple fights pre and post patches, and thats what the TL's would have done playing on Pen and Live US servers at the same time. And you can't just reduce by a % figure for the simple fact you actually dont know if your over any coded hard cap within the game without actually having access to the code itself or have run 100's of duals to work out actually equations and then its only approx, due to one single lucky hit could throw off those figures. And to top it all, I would guess realm rank bonus and relic bonus' add after everything. So would not be reduced by the 42%, which you have done by reducing the entire figures by 42%.

And btw, as a wizard i currently get hit for in excess of 800 damage per hit off mids while having 26% slash resist and fully buffed. Yet i only get hit for 100-250 off Hibs

anyway.

merc vs zerk unbuffed duel ;p

Enjoy RvR when there are no mids to fight ;p

Cos lets face it well over 50% of the rvr on prydwen is mids vs albs ;p

just cause zerkers get nerfed no mid will rvr again?
since when is 1 class a hole realm?

Wouldn`t it have been better to increase BM/Merc damage 15-20% instead of nurf zerkers ?

Merc's/BM`s have complained since release how gimpy there damage is, now we can add zerkers to that also.

so u actually think its ok that a tank that swings that fast is outdamaging casters?

 

[Meatballs]

Yes but clearly 1500 range makes a lot of difference when everyones running at Mach5 towards each other, and you have to stop to cast, and what with the proliferation of instacast spells now in the game casters still have a much bigger advantage!

 

[mestoph]

Caster's and instant cast spells. Where can i get some, except for vol pillar. Range means nothing for a caster, when you are always the first to die, because the stealther heads straight for you. As your the easy target.

Ice Wizard anyone?

 

[Yussef]

Emma, you forgot the Str caps get removed, so you will be doing more damage than that due to increased weaponskill etc.

Oh and have fun with the exams, kiddies

Hmmm, you havent read the other plethora of BS shes posted about dmg logs and that have you?

 

[old.Niljindil]

Dunno if anyone already mentioned it, cba reading through a thread started by a clueless zerker anyway.

STYLE damage was reduced by 42%, not DAMAGE.

Theres a *huge* difference you know.

Edit: Which, for the trolls out there, translates to about a 20% reduction in damage, give or take a few percent. On the mainhand, the offhand still hits as hard as before, which just makes the damage reduction even less than 20%

Stop whining and learn how the game works instead :sleeping:

Errm , dont remember if I did...

[SilverHood]

none of this matters anyway... its not gonna change

if people dont like it, they leave... check prydwen midgard board for number of goodbye threads

zerker nerf wouldnt be so bad if they gave midgard something back

but instead midgar has to live with the fact that hibbi's and albs had had their love, and midgard has seen very little.. except on Thanes and hunters (yay!)

ohh im sorry, removing the spam from a log means its edited/fake/useless.

and from doing that to just one log, all my future/past logs are fake/edited/doctored/useless ?

right ok then.

im also supprised at how 2 faced people can be.. this is the internet ffs. no one gives a shit about what you think of them.

if you dont like me. so what like i care.

if you do like me. well good for you.
