Ninja's nerf.

Its mobility and high damage output is not balanced by its lack of armor and health when dying only causes Ninja to be incapable of dealing damage for 3-5 seconds (the time it generally takes for them to ender pearl back to the flag carrier/flag room). 3-5 seconds for a Ninja to come back is as if the Ninja never died in the first place. Now, if ender pearls were restricted for a while after spawning or if there was a respawn timer, this would be a relevant rebuttal, but seeing as that is not true, your argument falls flat.

Miskey pointed out a con to having high damage and high mobility at the same time and what do you do? You tell him that his argument is irrelevant. Imagine me saying that fracking is good for our economy and energy supply while you proceed to inform me that fracking is capable of causing a good amount of earthquakes, pollution, water supply damage, and more. Then, imagine that I proceeded to tell you that what you pointed out (and should have pointed out) was irrelevant simply because it didn't discuss what I presented, but rather, countered it by presenting the cons that go hand in hand with the pros that I presented. You telling Miskey that his point was irrelevant to the thread was beyond words in terms of stupidity and was childish in the fact that you seemed to only have wanted positive feedback for what you proposed. Do learn to acknowledge and consider critiques of your proposal whenever you are making a thread. If you cannot serve to do so, perhaps you would be better off not posting threads in the first place.

 

I was discussing ninjas current nerf. My opinion is that the nerf that was done is not the correct way to balance ninja. I pointed out an alternative that would still reduce the total amount of damage, but not upfront.

 

The Ninja sword nerf is the wrong way to rework Ninja because it's trying to fix a problem that isn't a problem. Ninja's insane mobility, its ability to crisscross maps like nobody's business is the problem, not that it could be dealing slightly too much damage to Pyros (which is funny because Pyros can 2 shot anyone on fire including Ninjas). That is entirely relevant to this thread because Ninja's latest sword nerf is a band aid fix and what Ninja really needs a nerf on its ender-pearls, but for some reason that hasn't happened yet.

 

You got Alzheimer's disease, comrade?

You brought up and are discussing a nerf that reduces Ninja's damage and makes its obscene mobility a bit bearable (through the reduction of the damage that may be done through application of its mobility). Removing the damage nerf would only serve to give Ninja's mobility more power since it would allow its mobility to once again allow the coming back and pestering of flag carriers to unbearable extents where the flag carrier is continually receiving high damage (reduced by the nerf, making the other factors of the mobility more bearable), killing the same Ninja 10 times, and being distracted. We are not discussing something that is completely irrelevant to Ninja's mobility, say the change class star, but rather, we are discussing how Ninja's high damage makes Ninja's high mobility so much more of a detriment to the quality of the game. The power of Ninja's mobility and the power of Ninja's damage are directly connected. Were you that kid in Kindergarten that wasn't able to connect the dots properly?

 

Finally, Someone who understands.

 

wow you actually have to work to recover what a crazy idea right

(edited after i posted: )
But really, ninjas still deal a good amount of damage so I don't know what you're all complaining about. You cant easily recover? Man, it's just like any other class now! (Minus assassin, assassin is still a good recovery class and only good against people who dont know to block or watch behind them. While battling experienced players to recov, it actually takes skill.)

Also, when ninjas had sharp 5 it was easy for them to take out the defense. It was also easy to pvp with if you were good since you're able to run quickly and go behind someone faster than they can turn (sometimes) and you still deal a fair amount of damage.

I complained with the soldier nerf and I decided nothing is going to change if I complained so I decided to learn how to play soldier the new way. Maybe you should learn different strategies for ninja now since its been nerved because thats what the rest of us had to do when our main classes were nerfed too

I've been saying this for near on a year now.

 

Yes, exactly what nas has been saying. It doesnt matter if the class it nerfed, it happened, deal with it, itll probably never change, so update your strategy with your class. Sibs, you say ninjas nerfed yet when me and you are on you still recover very well. i guess thats just because you are a beast at ninja, but still, ninjas sword does the same amount of damage it did with the other sharpness.

 

What the heck are you even talking about. If American colonists took that attitude when the British were taxing the hell out of them and said "oh well, this will probably never change, we're not gonna be able to change anything so we're just going to live with it" I can tell you right now you wouldn't have a United States of America! And if American colonists, who had nothing but a few machine muskets could rid themselves of one of the most powerful empires in World History then there is no reason why CTF'ers cannot get some of the updates that they want (through a large consensus) on a freaking Minecraft Capture the Flag server.

No it doesn't... -_-

 

Except you're not exactly being forced to pay brawl a tax. Or at all.

 

That's not the point lol
