It's almost as if those systems, too, pale compared to bleeding synergy.

Bleeding kills people. Dust affs don't.
If your synergy is building towards an arbitrary threshold, great. If you're pressuring multiple vitals, while also pressuring multiple vitals, while also buffing multiple bleeding inputs, while also giving more afflictions based on bleeding inputs, while also threatening both %health and %mana kills, wowe.

Re: Let's talk about Glomdoring.
It's like no-one read the other thread about why people are so turned off on Glomdoring.
Continuing to point out how they are wrong and they just need to 'git gud' is exactly the issue people are complaining about in the 'Why are people leaving' thread. That's exactly what you're doing by discussing Magnagora synergy rather than Glomdoring synergy.
I'm trying to direct the conversation to something productive rather than just continuing down the same path with the same result.
I don't think that's too much to ask here.

Re: Let's talk about Glomdoring.
You can't really say that an org has the best synergy as opposed to other orgs and not be expected to mention the other orgs. Orael has a point as do you.
Mag has synergy. It's just not as deeply rooted as yours is, and the fact that it does have synergy doesn't make yours any less potent or viable. It also hasn't had that synergy for as long as Glomdoring has, nor as much time to build up competent players relying on that synergy.
-------
A common bard tactic is using m6 to drain mana/ego under manabarbs/egovice. No other org in the game benefits from this as much as Glomdoring does, because Glomdoring's array of skillsets are based on draining mana/bleeding for the most part.
--------
No other druid/wood besides Glomdoring's feeds into their other classes' skillsets, either. Unless it's been changed, blacktalon skills (mostly Crow, but melding as well) and wyrdenwood skills all cause heavy bleeding, and wyrdenwood even heal off of local bleeding, further enhancing their survivability.
Meanwhile, Geomancer melds prone and blind which I suppose helps monks and warrior. Geochems have a fume that drains a minor amount of health, three other fumes which cause paranoia/pox/asthma, and bombs which do commonly resisted damage types, and their trans skill hurts people holding their breath
Very little synergy in the last set. At one point, Magnagora's thing was large amounts of damage. With the introduction of "everyone gets illself and vitality", it's just not viable anymore, and any time we try to buff it, people point back at what Mag used to be and tell us that we don't need buffs.

Re: Let's talk about Glomdoring.
I really don't think that was a major point, it was just a leading point into a discussion about Glomdoring and current synergies. Discussing other org synergies seems like a deflection tactic. Is there an issue with just focusing on Glomdoring's skills? Any argument about them being balanced/overpowered/underpowered etc should stand on its own despite any other org synergy or lack there of.Deichtine said:Orael said:This thread is about Glomdoring, not Magnagora. If you want to discuss Mag and it's strategies, please make a new thread
One of the major points in the thread was comparing the synergy of the orgs. It seems prudent to correct the errors the original poster has posted in regards to that and how they failed to notice synergy in the other orgs.
