Spectal Throw is not in line with melee

Changed title from to something more proper for this forum.

So basically the majority of people defending keeping it the way it is have no other reason than "I don't understand why it bothers you, so that obviously means there is no problem."

Wow. Brilliant.
It's obviously impossible for people to feel like they are hindering their character by not using stronger things, making an experience less enjoyable. That's why nobody has ever complained about it. Blaming players for thinking the wrong way is definitely the solution. There is definitely also no partying or competition in this game, so there is no way that you could feel inferior to other players.

Once upon a time, everyone was using ground slam.
And then everyone was using Freezing Pulse.
And then everyone was using Cleave.
And then everyone was using Searing Bond.
ect..

They didn't have to remove these abilities, or even nerf them (well they did nerf cleave), it's just that the metagame shifted at some points, new skills appeared, and new trends emerged. Spectral throw was overused when it was released, it's now less used but still a lot for various reasons (like its synergy with powerfull aura as they are in the current metagame), I'm pretty sure at some point in the future spectral throw will be forgotten. And will reappear later.
Removing skills because they're overused is ridiculous.

Completely missed the point.

Wait, REMOVE spec throw but let that mess CAST ON CRIT remain? ROFL, are you new to this game? Serious question.

CoC is the biggest most ignorant hot mess ever created, it's just dumb, spamming cyclone and discharging 100 times a second till you get a seizure.....Yeah, balance.

The difference is that ST is OP from the start for melee builds.

CoC Discharge with Cyclone works well in end game but it takes a lot of effort to make it work to begin with since you'll need lots of charges.

and it doesn't cast that much of course but it's the builds main damage.

Also a build like that is not that tanky as others

i bet reflect is fun with that

also, you can literally get a seizure from a build like that, i dont suffer from that but i honestly couldnt play it cause all of those lights give me a headache

Tbh i dont really care about CoC, i just have no interest in it, it might be very powerful, but its unplayable because you lag out, you get headaches, you desync etc. And also no one wants to play with a CoC in party for the same reasons

How do you think I feel playing Summoner.
I watch every other build out there walk all over my dps.

CoC, RF, ANYTHING! makes summoner laughable.
I mean WTF RF just has to walk the map and its clear.

Dude, summoner is super good, a lot of people do atziri with a summoner because of how awesome the evanghelist prox shield is.

You can solo uber with a summoner. Of course it has its downside, its incredibly boring, so its not an overpowered build.
