Absolute bonkers, the stuns from some classes alone already make PvP quite annoying, but add that to high damage classes such as VhL which could potentially stun lock you and KO you before you even realize it PvP has become quite boring and I only do it if I'm really bored.

This is insane! As for a possible solution, I've seen other MMOs have a system where if you joined a pvp map, it changes your classe from a pve version to a pvp version, one that has nerfed damage and stuns, disables powerful effects, consumables and item damage boosts. meaning that classes fundamentally change in pvp, and these versions get their own balance patches, the get their own buffs and nerfs, and it's doesn't affect the pve version of the class at all. I think applying that in AQW would make so much sense. As always thank you shimi for the amazing video

It seems like a lot of work for aqw. There are near a 1000 classes give or take, to make them all balanced or change them all for pvp outside of pve is smth i dont think they can do since every class is an unique game item. What i think the fix could be is a rotational banning period of sertaint: classes ,amulets ,weapons and items so player got smth to work with and make there own balance. This has nothing to do with your responce but i wish they would intigrate guild activity together wirh the team pvp thing makes both of em more interesting

Tips: you can counter dodge classes with blaze binder as all skills dont misses and most dodge classes dont have high def. so u can burn them with your high dot and burst skills and you can also counter classes like great thief (i'm not sure), MOM class, and artifact hunter class with DOT class.

oh my gosh old AE soundtrack at the end... was it from DF or something

two vhls with nsods is pretty much a wild west standoff also desyncs are a scary thing to occur to the point that they will call you out for being a cheater

Maybe to solve it before a match starts there should be a voting of things that cannot be used in PVP or Brawls, like no potions, scrolls, dmg boost items, banning classes and also set ranges for certain lvls, kinda like how they made those battleground maps for leveling. They can implement harder versions for brawls like bosses can 1 hit you and has an ability to negate debuffs.

I wanna point out that Artifact Hunter also have a massive HoT and a absurd buff for Damage, literally Doom or Destiny (also the reason of the doom and destiny wheels) It's the few classes I love to use from time to time

I've always thought stuns are the most unnecessary part of pvp in this game. Lots of good points made 👍. The only other thing I can think to mention is the fact that you can prestack your abilities on monsters which is really broken with classes like Master of Moglins where you can just immediately open with the 5th skill and have every single effect from that skill active.

If it’s possible, they could adjust a class’s numbers to balance it out specifically in PVP like League’s Howling Abyss does for certain champions. Don’t know if AQW’s system could do that though.

I luv when shiminuki uploads videos that are not class reviews

What's the music btw? Its really good

I think that the item damage buff should not apply when fighting other players, since there is already a powercreep problem. Not to mention it is not a very new player friendly item that can make one person deal literally 50% more damage than another player as a base. That really helps prevent people from joining pvp, it also doesn't help that levels are not auto scaled so if you've not maxed your character then you are at a disadvantage from the start. So for sure I agree with it needing a re-work of some sort. I think that it could be improved greatly with a few small changes: like reduce stun duration vs players and make skill like flame barrier and temp insanity less effective, remove all outside damage bonuses, and limit the bonus item slot to only a few pvp specific items that could come with the potential pvp update.

Does anyone know the name of the song playing in the beginning?

Shimi, will you be doing a Defender rework overview?

woah woah woah...yesterday i was there in the lobby with that todoroki looking guy....could i have been in the presence of shiminuki senpai and not even known it?!

I think removing the damage boost from any item can help this issue. As for op class, increasing the hp bonus from amulet can help to make the fight last longer and give player a chance to retaliete before got bursted. Also increasing the veriety of amulet can make pvp more interesting such amulet that gives you hit chance bonus but only gives you like 500 to 1000 hp bonus instead of 5000 hp, etc Fixingthe suicide bug is a top priority. As for bludrut brawl, maybe make a kill count system, where the number of trophy you get is equal to the number of enemy player you kill. Finally put MORE items and reward or even pvp ranking syste to encourage player to pvp instead of afking in yulgar.

Make a video on how to counter the holy-grail-classes of AQW PvP like Artifact Hunter and Great Thief

I know how this is going to sound but I have a friend who used to work for AE as a writer and he told me when they originally made PVP it such a hassle that it nearly sunk half the dev team so im pretty sure at that they said screw it and gave up rather than go through that mess again.

yeah, love that you had to create a video about this abomination.

Keep it up shiminuki!

there are a few things they can do with this. 1st is there should be a boost cap. it doesn't matter if yu have an NSoD + potions, Boosts should automatically be capped at maybe 20-30%. 2nd is something I have experienced myself by playing other games with pvp mechanics, Dmg auto nerf for 1v1 and HP multiplier for TeamVTeam. with the former whenever 2 players do 1v1 their dmg outputs are immediately nerfed before the match begins(there is always a countdown) so no matter how strong they are the match will always last longer than how you would expect. with the latter, upon entering a team vs team pvp, the Health of all players is increased sometimes 5x sometimes 10x, it doesn't really matter how how many times, the point to this is to keep everyone from one-shotting other people especially since AoE skills are extremely hard to counter if you fight with your usual base HP number. and this also makes team v team more engaging and would actually force players to cooperate with each other as you can not just simply solo multiple people even if you have AoE abilities and thus promote more teamwork. 3rd is that extra effects like debuffs/buffs/heals etc. are immediately nerfed as well. whether that be with their durations(like in this one game I play, when doing pvp, all abilities with stun effects are immediately nerfed to only stun for 2 seconds on 1v1) and with their numbers like capping the numbers of the buffs you can stack on yourself to, once again, prevent one-shotting. however, while I do have these suggestions, at the end of the day AQW is not a pvp game and no matter what people say it probably never will be unless of course they force it upon players and with their declining playerbase, that is a very VERY bad idea. especially since if I remember correctly during the earliest years of the game I can still remember people absolutely HATED farming for the DragonBlade of Nulgath requirements because it involves a LOT of PvP. yes the item itself was quite an achievement to acquire but did we like queueing up for matches with some people either having op classes that are almost impossible to counter or other people just afking when the match starts? nah, we didn't, it was annoying. so lo and behold after a few pvp related end game items they stopped involving pvp in farming and just let players farm however they want.

Lord Shiminuki! Name of the songs please!! Specially the second one.

I have an idea for another class review the starter classes

Well, first thing I gotta say, you forgot to mention there's another bug that rarely happends but god is annoying when it does. I call it "Stun Glitch", which well, whenever you or enemy stun each other for some VERY rare reason both of you can't do anything. You both can move but if you try to attack, your skill goes off but doesn't do damage. Is like you're both there saying "Hi". It fixes after some time but still, it has happend to me many times and I don't have any idea of what causes it. Anyway, the fix to the ussie is not as easy as "placing new amulet and monsters, heh!". My ideas are: 1- General Class re-balance: Remove stuns/lower stuns duration and remove hit chance from classes that should not be having them (Cof cof Great Theif) aswell as maybe lowering some number on damage resistance (I think they should place back that VHL stacks up his damage resistance instead of having 50% right away, is so unfair to have Cap max resistance by just pressing one buttom and dealing so much damage at the same time). The game got so many unbalance classes that needs tweaks to work fine on PvE and not beign mosters in PvP. 2- Better sync: This is also something that bothers me to no end and it needs to stop. This doesn't only affects PvP, but PvE aswell. I'm tired of seeing people on spots that they aren't. 3- "Star of the match" and "end of the match" things: One idea that i had is maybe at the start of the match give each player a lot of damage resistance until they are both loading just fine, aswell as some resistance to stuns and such so you can actually do STUFF and not beign one-shotted/stunned right after your screen loaded. Also same thing goes for end of the match things, so you don't have to change your class to remove a DoT or something. 4- Rework Bludrutbrawl: Place everything to today's standars, make the Captian have buffs aswell as resistances to stun and all of that kind of things, same goes to every important mob inside. 5- Ban usables/NSoD: I think is unfair that just a few that took it's time to farm the sword could have that huge adventage. Also, something aside, kinda Pay to Win if you get this sword out of any IoDA just to use it in here. Regardless, I think is an unfair adventage that you can use items in this as not all take they time to farm this items and I understand it. This also will help with the one-shot situation. For the overall items, it's also unfair since not all brings things to the PvP, kinda of a unfair thingy too. Honestly, there so much to be work on. I think what they should do instead of making new stuff, is improving the things we already have. I do believe there's already enough content, just the quality of most of the old things is pretty bad. Good video!

you can use consumables on pvp and multiplayer pvp???

Which has better dodge? Yami no ronin or great thief

I think that once you enter the arena your HP should scale with your stats. If your level 100 and have upwards of 800 magical power then your health should be between 20-30,000 HP, and so two people fitting that criteria makes for a more interesting fight imo. AQW battle arena fights happen way too fast for it to be interesting, especially with NSOD, but if both players had the same HP as the dragons in /lair while having the same stats as a regular player then PVP in AQW could actually be really fun.

I haven’t been exactly up to date with it, but I think there’s gonna be too much issues with the new aqw so the pvp problem won’t even be noted. Y’all can correct me, but after watching some videos of ragnarok explain some stuff, AE is trying to make as much money as possible with the last few weeks remaining until flash closes, you know, with the rares coming back recolored and the new 40k ac package; it’s quite obvious. I read some comments saying it’s a pattern a company does when their game starts dying. Honestly, I think they’re not confident aqw mobile is going to be as “good” as aqw is right now. I’m not sure where I’m leading with this, but uh... the pvp issue is too small compared to others, so I’m just saying it’s probably gonna remain broken for a while longer

hate how it took me a solid 10 minutes for me to realize that "fighting companions" is a stand-in for smash brothers.

I think, they should rework every class designed for PvP into something good for PvE, and then make a proper PvP where potions don't work, NSoD/BBoA/ETC don't work, and most importantly, player stats and level are reduced/raised to a certain level (like 45-55) so that its a fairer playing field. Maybe half the effectiveness of buffs/debuffs in PvP too, i dunno. Maybe also fix all the glaring issues too, yeah.

This why i stick with Sword Master (Blade Master copy) or Sword Master Assassin whichever when i dodge thoughs pesky stuns and unleash 3,2,4,2,4,2,4,5,4,2,3 repeat and with spiral carve for perfection
