Phantasmal blades is too weak as a skill

You didn’t do that. The main problem is that you don’t try to learn, but instead create a new thread every time with yet another “revolutionary” false claim

This forum section is about suggestions. Are you the one who wants to give the approval of what’s valuable to post or not? I didn’t make any claims, I made some calculations and presented an analysis of why I’d never take PB. What is the problem with that? Should I always ask for permission from someone before posting something? I don’t see the reason this discussion continues.

why I’d never take PB.

You should really try it, it’s a strong skill and fun to use.

And if your calculations prevent you from using it, well, that’s your loss.

@Shadowpast

Asking for civil conversation when accusing others of “harassment” when they disagree with you is hypocrisy at its best.

The only one defending my point is me, while there are around 10 people repeating the same thing over and over again. Why the need for repetition? If someone new comes on the thread and sees that what they’re about to say was already said, he should just give a like or something. Why do I still have to respond to the same exact thing?

I think all your points have been made so unless someone has something new to add …

Mar as mentioned earlier the base math was wrong even if you ignore the additional aspects of gear and bonus skills
You applied cast speed scaling to AP, but you didn’t to PB and listed wd/flat assumes it only hits 1x in the same timeframe (it doesn’t), meanwhile you attributed 4x ticks/second speed scaling to AP inflating its numbers already at your own comparison/“even if ignoring the game - what your fellow players tell you”
there’s just multiple reasons why you’re getting the pushback you’'re getting, and you’re simply just wrong…

@Mar

I’d say you’re wrong.

1k flat can only happen if you counted it once, because otherwise you’d end up closer at 2k flats…
likewise AP wd/flats only has your numbers if you counted them for 4ticks ie a full second’s cast

I’d say you’re wrong. And if you’re right it would be cool as well because I could see PB as something better. AP attacks 4 times per second at 100% cast speed. PB attacks only once (with 5 projectiles) at 100% cast speed. Is this wrong?

To the OP:

@Zantai

Individuals items/skills may seem underpowered (or overpowered) when looked at in a vacuum, but are actually fine when considered within the larger context of all the items/skills in the game, which is why we need to look at the big picture when we make changes. So don’t worry about solutions and focus on providing us your gameplay experience instead. Let us worry about the details!

To everyone else:

@Zantai

3. Just because somebody posts on the internet does not mean that you have to reply to it.
   Someone post something that makes you really angry? Don’t answer. Or take some time to cool off and post in a mature and constructive manner later. Senseless back and forth internet arguments that are based purely on subjective or emotional responses are a waste of your time and ours.
