MultiScoreGasmz Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 death of the soakers...? The stego, getting a huge nerf for damage resistance...some might say good it was way too good at soaking. But the problem is the devs are nerfing all other soaking Dino’s(bronto, paracer, etc) almost into the ground with health stats when they’re suppose to be “tanky” Dino’s. Every creature in ark has a purpose, the stego was recently useless now more recently given use for soaking turrets, now that only use is threatened I do not agree with either of these up coming nerfs for the patch scheduled for the 18th of February and if enough people get behind me we might be able to change the deva mind!

Volunteer Moderator GP Posted January 27, 2018 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted January 27, 2018 I have a feeling the fire breath is related to the Dragon, i.e. the boss, not the Wyvern. Pretty sure they would have said Wyvern if that's what they meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MultiScoreGasmz Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 Thank you for the clarification, since everyone refers to them as dragons it’s easy to get confused! But the issue of the stego how do you feel about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My server has stegos turned off on our cluster for the mere fact, they are too op. I feel this patch may ACTUALLY balance them out again. Not only that, aberration has a new bullet soaker (The Crab) which is equal to if not better then the stego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that 100 turrets limit will also be enforced with that update - i'd say its balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm playing on a nitrado hosted server and it's been 100 for over a month now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeyB Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I want op pre nerf turtles back, they made stegosaurus the soaker and completely made turtles useless, give turtles a saddle that stops the rider being shot off the top or being able to use c4/rockets and were good. Turtles make sense as tanks, stegos don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of these complaints about how the 100 turret limit is not enough, so they need to nerf the bullet soakers too. They finally let us know what those reductions will be, and low and behold, people are complaining again. I really do feel for Wildcard on this whole balancing game. They have their work cut out for them trying to please a disapproving playerbase while the vocal minority screeches at every little change.

I’m sure if Wildcard didn’t listen, they would never fix bugs, release content, or better yet, even bother to further develop their game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfasaurusRex Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 It's fine, turrets will be limited to 100, and soakers are being nerfed to balance it out. Everything is going to be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is the game should have been balanced BEFORE launch, not 5 months later. Looks bad imho when they are still doing massive balancing nerfs this long after full release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could argue that they should have introduced the limit in early access. The balancing is a knock on effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankTheCaesar Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I’d say the nerf is good. A stegosaurus soaking bullets was cheating, or glitching at least. I mean the trick where bullets hit the scales instead of the person, when they are supposed to be set on players. It’s not an intended mechanism and therefore against rules. Im not a raider though, so is that what makes it a tank or does the creature have natural overall high health/defense? It always seemed to me that the “scales” had unusually high resistance than the rest of the Dino but that could be the whole creature. I just assume it’s a glitch because that’s all these cancerous freaks in PvP ever do. There’s no real fighting any more, only exploiting unintended mechanics. Which is why I am in PvE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimeForHavocYT Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Why is it people always need to complain? If you don’t like what WC are doing simply don’t play, or since you’re developer professionals, why don’t you make your own game? If you can’t do better then what they did then stop running the team down every chance you get. Play the game and enjoy it or don’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also for those of you who don't know, the Crab has 75%? Resistance to bullets. Tame a 150 pump all lvls into health and you have 3 stegos in 1 tame.

No matter the amount of buffs/nerfs there will always at least be something considered 'off-meta' and something will always be considered top tier. Plain and simple.
