How PA don't understand that the major problem in balance is not DP and the biggest issue atm is that how crazy AP scale proportionally to DP and that AP scale for staking AP but DP drastically scale from total gear stat but not from staking DP.
If they want more longer pvp (not 1-3 skill = kill) then don't rise DP but lower the AP bonus .
If ppl stack AP they must understand that they inflict high damage and will be able to kill opponent from 1-3 skill but they the same must understand that if the opponent is the same AP they will die from same 1-3 skill but if you want to live then stack some DP and be ready that you will don't die from 1-3 skill but from 3-6 but you will inflict less damage to your opponent and you will kill it from same 3-6 or more skills... -

@AnexAmen, and if they just straight up gave everyone more HP, they could have completely avoided the need for yet another complicated formulae and yet ANOTHER meaningless stat (Renown score).

@Anex Lowering AP means a big destabilization , you just cannot lower the AP scoale . All classes are scalling in a diff way AP and DP wise . It's way better than before now , i personally can enjoy pvp more now .
On low gear the pvp is fast but on 550+ GS the pvp is better .

I don't understand dev's logic. "since it could only benefit certain classes and possibly result in bigger gaps between classes" can also be applied to grab skills. The only class which relies on air attack to one-combo people (only when opponents are Stunned/Stiffed since the whole combo is unprotected) while not having any grab skills is SORC. Correct me if I am wrong.

Lets not forget that BDO is the only true action MMORPG , PA still needs to experience the balance in the game . Never first genre of a game was perfect and never it will be because players have diff builds and can troll or break the game by going full ap or full evasion witch means 0 cc .
