Trader's God Mode 1-160

[Coolerd]

Can funcom Lvl Lock drains for PvP so we have maybe one chance to face them without be totaly owned?

Done some PvP at low lvl's was all fun to everyone, even if i died was still fun, until some Trader logs in and u cant do nothing, just log off. Drains need LvL lock, lvl 50 trader's casting Nanites ruin the game.

Lvl 49+ casting this

I want lazy to come in with his PROTIPS, but basically, theyre fixing drains. Check out nano docs.

[Gridpain]

yeah, but tbh, we could use this going live sooner than later.

Specially at low level, when out of range of NR perked people.

@op. i recommend familiarizing yourself with the profession balance documents. will help avoid not one but two useless threads discussing things that are already getting fixed.

[Coolerd]

so until full rebalance mortals whe cant do tower wars, pls funcom fix this before ty.

[Lazy]

or you can make nr twinks and enfos.

[Coolerd]

i have one mp76 with 780 NR, in 5 secs vs one trader my Nanoskills where -350 and i have 900ish.

Enfos cant do nothing vs predrained traders, and NR toons cant kill traders if they are OSB, wth are u talking about? im sure u are some of those amazing trader user's.

[Lazy]

lol 780 nr.

That's not completly true.

NR toons (agents) can kill traders, it just take some time.

What's really f**ked up is traders under level 23. Out of range of level 30, it takes a trader to kill another ... except slow trader vs "Nerfed"

That. If you don't like pvping traders, just don't then.

[Coolerd]

pls funcom make one Trader server lvl 1-150 so all those traders can drain eachother while rest of the world is happy having fun at pvp.

or maybe just lvl lock Drains.

I asked for this change some years ago...
A prerebalance fix would be very welcome especially because rebalance is taking like forever..
these drains are just absurd and the fact that nothing got changed is really freakin me out.

900-250=650
650-250=400

WTB info where the other -750 nanoskills came from to get you to -350.. and since you're a MP, you might be interested in knowing that as long as you do /pet attack before you are drained your pet wont stop attacking once you are..

ps. NSD is your friend..

[Frubaliscious]

level lock nanites to 151+

we've been asking for years.

yeah, traders never calm pets, lol.

p.s. = good luck with that NSD ever landing ever in a million years in the 1 second you have until you can't cast it anymore.

i have to explain why u will never NSD one trader in PvP or its too obvious?

[Frubaliscious]

instead of focusing just on Traders, I'd love to understand why the only professions even viable at 100 and under pvp are ENFO, TRADER, and NR AGENT. in fact, there's only 2 viable professions, since NR AGENT is a response to Traders. these 2 professions are in every way responsible for creating an unapproachable segment of the game for almost every newcomer.

I cannot believe such a glaring, obvious problem has been overlooked or ignored for so many years.

there is nothing that even comes close to the power of these 2 profs. Enfo is just as bad imo, since they can maintain over the top AR, and pvt damage at little to no sacrifice in survivability.

at 100+ other options become available, but just barely. by time you reach 150, the choices become much less diluted according to what can bump heads with a trader, and more geared towards what you'd prefer to play, which is how it should be along the entire level range.

[Lazy]

@colored if you're so slow that you get SS'd before you can NSD every time i think that says more about your pvp skill than about the OPness of traders.

@frub: tl1-5 traders have been brokenly op since dinosaurs roamed rubi-ka. it's so bad that pretty much the "standard" hardcounter to a trader is a higher level trader ...

[Coolerd]

yeah because if i click 200000 times NSD my mp is going to cast faster the 9 secs attack time, also Trader nanos have 11more range. Lazy pls u fail tryng to troll, why u lose your time making such usseles reply's? Its obvious that nobody can NSD a trader if this is not AFK.
