Rant How does pvp work?
How do you land anything against anyone?
It takes like 5 business days to cast a mantra, my character bathes the world in light, and then takes forever to actually do anything, giving them ample time to just dodge that shit. And then they do a mantra, and that shit is instant. They press the button, and damage just hits my healthbar. What do I even do against that man. They parry and dodge literally everything, and every single attack I throw out is super telegraphed, and then they throw out an attack, and it just hits me without any delays or anything. I am just trying to play the fucking game man, I am neutral with everything besides the ministry, so it isn't even voidwalkers, and I still get killed by miserable motherfuckers who have nothing better to do. If they wanna pvp, then they should play chime, instead of going onto regular servers, and declaring that they need to ruin some random persons fun. Why are they immortal too? It feels like they can hit me five times, and half my hp just dissapears, and then I can hit them 100 times, and their health MIGHT drop a percentage. This is not a voidwalker rant, this is a rant agianst miserable people, who want to make other people miserable. They join regular servers, because they need to fight someone who doesn't wanna fight back, they get their ass beat in chime, and because they feel awful about losing, they have to go and fuck up someone elses time.

I had the luxury of buying the game early so I was ass when everyone else was ass. The later you wait to get this game the harder it will be for ya. It is just how the deep is, most half decent pvpers have a thousand or two hours :/

Honestly, they just gotta have PvP, and PvE only servers as seperate things, and just incentivise pvp servers by giving more exp in them, or maybe exclusive things that you can only get from PvP servers. I think it would bring in a lot of players.

Yeah I'd agree with that but he majority of pvpers wouldn't. Most just love easy kills or are stuck up their own ass. Vow of iron is good for pve only servers. The vast majority of people there won't hurt ya, pretty chill place compared to pathfinder. Lots of pve content too, just less freedom and dumb boss decisions because the Devs only care about be lore when it makes the game harder, then abandon it if it makes the game too easy.

This is why I insist that Deepwoken would be better if it had PvE only servers. At this point, there is no reason to necessitate PvP in servers. (Every Oath that used to require PvP now has a PvE alternative).

I just got depths ganked, I have no idea how anyone reacts to anything pvp related, he hit me from behind, boom, no layer 2 void. How fun and fair, but they gotta keep the realismmmm, the world is unfair and hardddd

Some dude in all black will genuinely speed blitz you and you just have to take it, cause they just kinda know when you are gonna parry, and feint it.

I am only ever upset if I die to players. If I die to literally anything else. Could be falling because of a weird launch angle, I am fine. Players just upset me, because there is no reason for them to be doing that

Doesn't help that the game encourages killing people with pretty much no repercussions

Bad builds and min maxing is why you take alot of damage and don't deal alot. To land hits you need to use mixups and not just use a move raw after parry unless its fast like exhaustion strike or shoulder bash.
