With this system you are at ubis mercy and their balancing. Picking my warlord in gear activated modes feels almost like i'm gimping myself and my team.

    P.S. keeping track of what perks you want post match, in the rewards screen is a legit pain in the *** considering you can only have 60 items in your hero's inventory.

    Also the feline perk is pretty much useless along side the rest, I immediately scrap every gear piece I get with that perk. +10% to movement speed if you unlock all renown levels, no thanks. It's not that it's totally useless, it's just never something I would take over any one of the other options.

    Your post in the other thread was reductionist like this too.

    If you take a second to look past your own biases, you'll see literally no one is complaining about lack of revenge builds. Instead, we are complaining that Ubisoft's solution to OP revenge builds was to trash the system entirely, when it was really just that build that need revamping. The gear stats system had been revamped several times already, no good reason why just the revenge stats couldn't be changed.

    If you like the perk system, fine. But you're failing to understand the arguments of those complaining about the new system.

    i get you're point, and some of them are people just mad that the perks don't live up to the hype they thought it would be, and i agree some of the perks are trash / useless to the heroes they are on, but a majority of the people here will be the people who just relied on revenge builds to play the game. i think they could of just taken the revenge gains away from the stats but they decided to try to mix it up completely. i'd rather try this new way and see how it goes than have continued the way it was.

    My point is we spent thousands of Steel and hours into getting our heroes customized to our liking. The system (except for revenge builds) was actually pretty good and allowed for some diversity in play-style among players playing even the same heroes. Instead of continuing to fine-tune the system (like they had been doing since release), it's now gone and in place we have these temporary boosts which require 600 points to activate. The system itself is also mind-boggling to someone who doesn't take the time to study it - IMO you shouldn't have to read a blog post to understand a game mechanic like this, it should be fairly evident from the UI.

    And I very much disagree with you for some reason believing without evidence that a majority of complainers had revenge builds. There is no evidence for that. Personally, I utilized stamina regen/cost reduction and attack increase builds. Now, I have to recalibrate my fighting style because those stamina stats are gone as are my attack bonuses. My defense is higher since I don't have a reduction on it and my health gain from kill is higher as well - but I don't care, my playstyle didn't revolve around defense or getting health from kills. Now I have to rethink things.

    I am leaving the game on 26th when RDR2 is coming out. I was able to tolerate most of bs but this one I can't. We even had a topic before the update where many players expressed their concerns but it was pretty much ignored.

    So after more than a year and 4000+ Dominion matches, they take away everything from me. My builds, my playing style, very soul of every of my characters.

    PS, for those complaining about revenge, that coud have been adjusted , same as other stats. There was no need for this what they did. Also, thanks to revenge feat that mostly assasins and hybrids have, they are still at advantage. Revenge is popping up like popcorn every few seconds during Breach .

    Paradoxically, there's more potential for revenge builds now being annoying, as you can simply get shields that will let you take more hits and activate revenge.
    Players with no access to heroic gear would have to be idiotic enough to waste thousands of steel to get their perks activated as opposed to just grinding to reps high enough to get gear worth updating. So they'll either waste steel or play with more of a disadvantage than previously when there were stats.
    This **** doesn't even matter in the light of the fact that 99% of heroic + legendary gear was literally taken away by Ubi. The 1% is the gear that got randomized with the right perks.

    Do not waste your time replying to trolls and ignoramuses like o0_JdogJ_0o who either don't understand what happened or are willingly accepting to be exploited and have their rights violated without putting up any resistance.

    Please, listen to us Ubisoft. We love For Honor, and we don't want to do this. But Perks are killing your game, and your players. We love For Honor too much to see this happen to it.
