Wizard - Fire balls

In light of recent events where people have asked for wizard fireballs to be 'nerfed', a proper debate should be undertaken.

If you get hit by a fire ball please take a screen shot and post here, then we can see if it needs be weakened.

Personally I do not think it should be 'nerfed' I have been hit many times by fire balls since they were made more powerful and usually as an archer take 5 hearts of damage (not including 1/2 heart fire damage or fall damage if thrown into the air). I have even survived a flamethrower as the balls move slower than an arrow, YOU can avoid them.

 
They were nerfed 10% it seems to be better so they are fine for now but it is still a bit to cheap for you pretty much get an insta kill against a troll.Also make it so fireballs don't make trolls lose there rocks like it used to be.It will throw you up 6 blocks MD.

I didn't know that the fire ball could make you lose a rock, how much damage does a troll take from a fire ball?
Becasue i had a hard time killing viktor_96_a when he was a troll on morgal - i killed him in athe end and got 174 points (thanks by the way) but i took a long time.
 
I personally think the fireballs are fine as they are. They were added with the idea of being the wizard's primary weapon, but in the end people used the Staff as a primary weapon while it should have been a secondary. After all, it's a ball of fire.. they should hurt quite alot.

Ofcourse, this is my opinion. Players are free to discuss this topic on this thread.
 
they are fine - now when can we see new powers such as frost and lightning (joking)

if i could i would 'like' farmeraap and anrza's posts
 
Indeed its fine the way it is. Though I never use it. People are just kinda dumb, when somebody uses flamethrower on them they just keep standing in middle of it instead of trying to avoid it by running around. So no its not OP, not even close. People think its OP because they panic when somebody uses it on them and just don't take action upon it and let them self get killed by it so easily.
 
I never get killed by 2 fireballs. Even if you did, kinda seems odd since means you don't move and stay on exact same spot when somebody is using a flamethrower on you....
 
Flamethrower is easy to dodge if you keep your head and get out of the way. If you stand still, expecting to brush a fireball off, you're screwed. If you are stuck in a corner, you're screwed.

The flamethrower is good for buying time when capturing a flag and decimating barricades. Let's not forget that it has a cooldown of a whole minute - which seems like forever in-game.

Well, as you've been gone for nearly a month, there've been some changes to fireballs.
They deal nearly twice as much as they deal a month ago.



MD, why can't you like the posts?
 
Doesn't change a thing imo, people just complain since they die because they don't act, not before and not now. People don't learn from their deaths ingame. If you see a flamethrower coming you should move and not stand still like 90% of people do. If their own fault they die and not the fact flamethrower is OP. Every person who dies of something is always complaining they either hacking or the thing is OP.
 
i think that wizard fire balls are great now they are more powerful, the flamethrower is a great ability, and i can't like any posts on this thread sjoerdtim, as there is no like button, just 'report, reply and quote'

Main problem is that sometimes the other team doesnt even get the chance to defend. Buying time may be too OP.
