Gunner skill : balders vengence, too easy to interrupt

i know this change was made due to pvp reasons and how much people cried,
but this skill has a very long animation, a VERY obvious animation and it can be interrupted so easily by almost anything it seems, even while you're up in the air!.
too many things are being nerfed because of pvp, the brawlers spinning suction skill, the valks dark herald i heard will get nerfed .

    Never really understood that. The wind up animation is so long it's basically impossible to be killed by it unless you just aren't paying any attention at all. As it stands now BV isn't worth using unless one of your team mates manages to get a perfect CC off. GG BHS!

    *Stuns in CS. Oh I've had some bad times by getting stunned and a gunner shooting that up right after...

    On Mass PvP you usually time your BV when sorcerers, reapers, archers, lancers, valkyries; uses their cc or their pulls/giggas.

    A few BV on a Mass PvP can massacre dozens or even a hundred players at a closed areas as in-side Velika city on CU.

    Glyph Blast for attack speed, glyph AB for attack speed, and use a strong bravery. Proc blast attack speed and fire a AB for more speed, then you BV. Use Lein's rootbeer for even faster BV. Have mystic, priest, or both for Aura and ES for even more speed. Use a quatrafoil to go even further beyond a super saiyan.

    The best of all is when you're ladder guard on CS and the climbers are like half HP, and you've got it loaded, they're like 10 guys on that ladder all packed up on the area it will hit. 10 kills at once and the narrator wets herself screaming GOOOOOODLIKE!!

    With Lancer's Adrenaline Rush + AB Speed Glyph + Priest's Energy Stars / Mystic Aura + Root Beer, BV can fire pretty damn fast.

    Forgot to also mention, Blast Speed Glyph + Strong Bravery + Etchings.

    They're complaining about BV being interrupted from being casted.

    Yes......and they just gave a way to prevent the interruption? Recall provides an iframe so you can get BV off without being stunned, sure you can't animation cancel the end of it but you still get it off.

    Which at the end of the day is a waste of an iframe because Balders damage isn’t that great so you will still end up needing to recall, but alas you wasted it.
  • Then roll after
  • Well to play PVP with gunner 1 x 1 is a bit complicate once she is very slow. Unless you are geared and play very well. If you do not know gunner really 100% and the other classes very well, PvP can be a disaster with gunner or any other class
    I would say gunner is nice in GvG!

    Take a look in this video 1 x 1:

    (3:58 till 4:05 or 9:00 till 9:12) for example!

    Balder can be used in the right moment 1 x 1.
    I do agree with you the balder's skill is very slow but need to know when and how to use.
    Note: can be a bit slow but in GvG if very well combined with other classes and also more gunners you also can do a serious damage or kill many in a shoot :)
    I remember in my guild (Tensus +15, long ago) 3 gunners full +15 combine 3 balder's at same time (or few seconds diff) in different directions so if do not know how to dodge properly/right place or pay attention where and how to go it means = death.
