I thought i could just watch from time to time and enjoy the show.
But i can’t.
If this would be a discussion face to face, some people would have a hard time to cover their
faces while they tell straight up lies or fabricate stories about how they experienced the PS
pre patch and now.
Saying the PS was to strong and had to be changed, while acting as if that statement would come from someone who actively plays the Veteran Class, is one thing too many here do.
Cut the cow dung!
That’s a straight up lie.
You know it.
I know it.
We all know it.
A Veteran PLAYER that dislikes the PS just simply picks something else. But that was never the problem. People dislike the PS while OTHERS wield it. THAT is the point.
The root of all the discussions around the PS always came from people that HATED to see Veterans wield the Power Sword. No one uses a weapon on his favorite class and then goes ''oh boy, i do hope the devs nerf this thing because i can not stand how strong it is.
The picture is clear. Veteran is a range class. Its range weapons are to strong. Its class specific melee is to strong. Its Ult is to strong. That’s the things you get to read all the time.
Coming from people who mainly play a class that they them self keep in a constant state of changing arguments, depending on what they argument for or against at that time.
One time they declare it to be THE MELEE CLASS.
Next time it is ONLY a melee class.
Then it is a WEAK class that can not deal with shooters.
Next they praise it for its mobility and how good it feels to get to that shooters and smash them.
And the best argument of all times keeps to be, that Veteran with Power Sword would steal the Zealots JOBS.
Then maybe you did your job wrong, if a class that is played by people who enjoy shooting stuff, had to run over to you and swing a melee weapon.
Problem is, that this game forces every class into melee from time to time. More so if you have range weapons with you, where you can not afford to shoot poxwalkers with, like high dmg low ammo weapons.
So just stop arguing, that the Zealot and only the Zealot should shine in melee. The Psyker with its Illisi Mk V blaze Force Sword is levels above the Horde clear potential of the pre nerf Power Sword.
It does not even has to be powered up to clear them with ease. And that thing gets infinite dodges.
And no one talks about it. Or maybe this is the next point on the nerf call agenda, who knows.
There are Weapons in this game, that are iconic to this franchise. Power, Chain and energy weapons are the flagship items when it comes to 40K. And when you have to read, that someone wants these things to be down on the same power level like a shovel or a knife. Well that’s the moment when you hear your inner Terminator say ‘‘Brother bring the flamer. The heavy FLAMER!’’
But please you all, go on tell us how overpowered the Power sword is compared to a normal sword.
And we all gonna ignore that your Ultimate that is meant to buff melee combat still buffs range fire too. But that little bug is too good right? And it would be uncool to suddenly fix it, because now everyone enjoyed it for so long already, right? Would be a shame when they fix it now. You could not even complain about it then, because you argued against that kind of argument when it came to the PS nerf.
