Crit evade meta
#20
I can see with Zeri since she wasn't there back in the day but before, in the Wild West, back when we had OLD Kensei, back when Kensei was just a passive class

The era of the Crit meta.

Wanna know what happened back then? The fights ended in 2~3 rounds against people who didn't build doomwalls; back before Def/Res was nerfed and 90~100% reduction was possible. Who combo'ed first won. Wanna know why? Because back then, Crit went unchecked. Crit evade wasn't enough to keep up with people sitting on 200+ crit while easily doing +300 damage a crit.

Back then, people didn't build crit evade because it was pointless. It was better to build impossible amount of reduction and installing Drown woman which made summoners a very meta pick just for its defensive options.

Which in return, got certain things nerfed and changed that had nothing to do with it. While I don't play this game as much these days (I still pvp on the test), I rather you lots not put a gun to your head and squeeze the trigger for a temporary high and have history repeat itself.

Crit evade exists to counter Crit or lower the chance of it. Just like everything else in this game, there's something to counter another. That's what the basis of balance is.

For example, Crit evade loses its purpose against anything that doesn't care about crit. So, those crit evade items and enchantment suddenly became dead weight.

Nothing has changed for crit evade since the few years GR2 happened and the start of Korv. All that happened was more classes and items existed that promoted the usage of Faith and Luck.

Which in return, makes crit feels like shit because everyone is building those stats for those classes/items. What about the tanks that aren't building that much faith/luck? That barely has enough to force a 50/50? Those people don't need to be punished because of that.

There are many tools in different classes and even potions that can improve your odds of critting. Example? One potion people consistently forgot to exist. "Dark Water Vial".

It would have been better if people suggested that those be stackable like blue potions to deal with Faith stacking crit evade builds. Make it easier to make if crafting it is the problem.

Or even asking for the return of Four Leaf Clover. Ask for Zeran Prayer return but in a Star Graph under Jupiter. There are many options and better things to suggest without breaking anything than a complete rework of a system that has been working fine for years now, which will only cause a chain reaction for other systems to be adjusted and other skills due to the change. Sending the game down a long buggy period.

Nerfing the numbers because 'this class is popular that uses faith and luck' doesn't help as that shoots other tanks and classes that do not run those stats but build enough to not get shredded in a turn by crit's high damage.

I understand the need to consistently crit your target and missing important crits hurts, but that approach isn't ideal. It's just how RNG works sometimes.
