That’s right! ME of all people, the guy who did the final blow to NERF farmer kit, now wants it buffed. Now, I would like to explain my reasoning on why I wanted it nerfed, to understand why it needs to be buffed again. Although I don’t want to restore it to what it once was, I do think the nerfs were overkill.
I wanted to nerf it at that extreme of a level because:
-A lot of other people were suggesting half food as a nerf, which I thought was a bit too much, but decided that it would be balanced because of my second reason that I wanted the kit nerfed:
-The amount of users of the kit doubled or tripled. I rarely encounter farmer users until a bit before the nerf when skywars solo swarmed with them. It became really annoying to fight, and so I was a bit angry to the point in which it became imbalanced. A farmer kit user could have easily beat a buster user, which buster is already god like in a melee fight, and it was a kit meant for melee. So i kind of broke, I was like frick it! Nerf it hard!
I now want a buff to it because I decided to play the kit, and it got much harder to play the kit after the nerf. It almost seemed harder, to play the game compared to a load of the other kits. I expected farmer now to be like buster level on difficulty to play. Also I anticipated other players to switch to a kit like. Buster or archer but something else happened, and I did not like it a single bit. But now, let’s see what buffs farmer could receive.
I chose this set of gear, for the new, farmer to have. I based this gear off of a private convo with a particular forums user, who wanted a farmer rebuff, or a fisherman nerf, which I left because it got a bit toxic. This convo, despite not being enjoyable at all to being in, shows me what a farmer kit user wanted...
food. (So I’ll add 1-2 pieces back)
I don’t think farmer should be just eggs and food though. This is because, a lot of noobs get carried with only food, and too little food results in a not so good kit. So I decided that armor should be added.
The buffs I think are good for farmer are...
1. 6-7 chicken now instead of 5.
2. iron chestplate and leather helmet.
(I think this is reasonable, and balanced. Farmer is SW only so it could technically get iron armor)
Now to the other problems that I didn’t expect form the farmer nerfs were:
-slight skybasing increase
- Remember when I said that I expected farmer kit users to do after the nerf were to keep using the kit, or move to another one? Welp, my fav kit has now been infested by tryhards, because they can’t deal with not having a lot of food. (Good farmers, who are more respectable, stayed with their kit though. I truely respect those who stayed after the nerf) My fav kit is fisherman of course. I want my own kit slightly nerfed just so those tryhards can stop playing it, before my fav kits image becomes “tryhards use this kit”.
Some people already want this kit nerfed, which I am fine with. Although I found nerf suggestions for that kit too overkill. So I also want to nerf fisherman too! (Although only slightly, saying it wasn’t as OP as farmer’
Fisherman nerfs to save my kit’s image:
-4 salmon instead of 5
-4 salmon instead of 5
The kit was 6 and 6 other types of food, until recently it got nerfed to 5 and 5. I think 4 and 4 makes sense now, due to the tryhard invasion against the kit. I think anything beyond that is where it becomes an overkill nerf.
Thank you for listening to my ted talk.
