Today I was just doing some pvp and I thought I was doing better than usual so I decided to do more, and then there were two people who had way too much pierce. When someone hit me with a spell, my tower shield didn't do anything. That's right, Ice's most important spell was completely pierced like it was a paper towel! No fair!!! Pierce has made completely defenseless (no pun intended). I don't mind the idea of pierce because then if there were no pierce and would have a hard time fighting enemies and players with high resist, but there needs to be a way to counter pierce! and are to a degree discriminated against in pvp! Poor can't use their minions because the computer is random enough to use a feint with a blood bat. Anyway, it's one thing if constantly criticaling wizards with over 100 damage are able to one hit kill you, but it's another thing if there's no way to not let that win them the match. I did say I don't mind the idea of pierce, but I think there should also be a stat that counters pierce and a nerf on pierce gear!
Thank you for reading -Your friendly neighborhood man
Pierce was KI's solution to the towering resistance Wizards, (mostly Thamaturges) were having. Like you said, it's not fair to other schools fighting against these wizards as their attacks wouldn't do much. My point, Pierce isn't broken, at least not yet and as was mentioned earlier, you still have your resistance behind that tower.
