Think the varangian guards need a buff
Varangian guard are extremely weak for what they do yes. They cost 90 food (so *0.9 of the cost of standard MAA) but 40 gold (so *2 the cost of standard MAA). Already there you have a problem, but in addition they are not sufficiently powerful for that cost. Castle Age Varangian with 140 HP and slower attack speed is basically eating shit against all "special" MAA in terms of usefulness.
Jeanne d'arc growing on me akin to a tumour.
I get why she's good casting material though
Btw the Golden Horn Tower can also spawn mercenary units from the trade post, if you put a Mercenary House next to it. Hopefully they let you select what it will spawn in a future update though...
It'd be fun but I think it'd be too strong and open up all kinds of wild builds for the Byzantines if you could pick what it spawns, especially because the units you can get from trade posts are basically a list of the most cracked units in the game. You really have to think about what merc contract you want to pick if you're going for the Golden Horn Tower with how it works now. I think Western mercs are not great against Joan, especially if you take the Hippodrome, the Hippodrome locks you into making horsemen and you'll get longbows from your merc house...horseman/longbow is a good comp against a lot of things but not royal knights. And landsknechts are good against the kind of tightly packed infantry formations you'll pretty much never see out of a French player. With a Hippodrome opening vs Joan I like the Eastern contract better instead and Cistern of the First Hill instead of GHT...you want the option to make Ghulams if the Joan player switches to mass spears but you don't necessarily want to have them get randomly produced by a GHT, and I think the endgame of the Hippodrome is trying to max out with a lot of cataphracts, one of the most pop-efficient units in the game, and the pilgrim flask is a major benefit when using cataphracts.
Wait a second...Jean summons are for FREE? ...and Byzantines have banned Greek Fire upgrade? so balanced...
What?! Byzantines need everything they can get!
Jeanne d'Arc's summons have a big cool down (4minutes I think) but I agree with you on the fact that they need to be nerfed in some way.
Mitoe's build order is lovely. i have 80% winrate as byzantines and currently sitting in diamond 3 (roughly 10 games)
I feel like every civ should have to wait until castle to place stone walls but byzantines should have a civ bonus of stone walls in feudal for 10-20% cheaper
thats a good idea! would help their early game alot
I feel that when you make effects that only last for a certain age you force civs into a one dimensional play style. However I understand where your coming from.
Take away her ability to train royal knights and replace them with Jeans riders. A civ with best unit for feudal pressure gets a hero. Never seen a Jean lose a feudal fight ever
jean did lose a bunch of feudal fights tho what are u on lol
@@jeromethy have you ever heard the term you can win battles but still lose the war? i dont think youre understanding the bigger picture
@@jasonyun1158That's besides the point, though. You claimed "never seen a Jean lose a feudal fight ever".
She needs a hard nerf and buff the rest of the faction as needed. This type of hero units really does not work in AOE games. She should be adding flavor and nothing more.
@@TheRealXartaX I think what he meant isn't that she is winning games despite lost feudal fights, but that she is winning games BECAUSE these feudal fights, even if they are lost, because thanks to them she is getting lvl ups
Nice vid aussie, but I would love if we could get some more of your own gameplay. These casts are great also though!
Mr Merlin and BeastyQt do casts of his games. Or probably he's playing on Twitch.
I don't know man, but with the Byzantines already having low popularity and still being discovered amongst the players.
Taking away a nice upgrade as a "gentleman aggreement" while letting the Jeannie do literally magic out of thin air seems very balanced to me and i would rather not play against the civilization atleast competitive.
who woulda thought an unrealistic hero unit would be overpowered
Imagine when they make everything intuitive. Putting units in rams, using siege towers, using water trade. This game has a lot of growth
I kinda like Joan. Her role in the game matches her historical feats.
she was an inspirational figure not some titan who could spawn cannons out of thin air and destroy 40 units by herself
@@JL-vk1rsI mean if you were English, and some random ass peasant girl broke your siege, escorted the enemy king to their coronation, you too would think she could spawn armies out of thin air
I think the horseman open was good against either form of Joan, although one is mainly used. What's difficult is how much of your army should counter her or her army? It feels like it's forcing you to move into a tri-composition.
Horseman against her or Archer
Spearmen against Royal Knight
Archer against Spearman
Early Knight against her
Also, Byzantines should use stone walls when pushing aggressive cistern placement. Can help in ranged fights.
Ah yes, my favorite faction, John Dark
Optometrist here, finally had my 3 seconds of fame :D
Whenever i watch janne game i always sup the other player 😊
I don't play this game competitively at all, just with friends in co-op, but I _love_ playing as Jeanne. I like using her abilities, and it feels like I can have some control over each fight instead of just watching the units fight automatically
So why's the greek fire projectiles banned? Surely a ~30% net buff for trebs on buildings that doesn't even stack if more than one treb used is not OP. In imperial not even close to a bombard. For units, it's even worse as only does 2 damage a second form fire, so you're not getting anything near even a mangonel with this for use on units, even if the treb manages to hit and the units stand there for 13 seconds. The extra 10% base damage over geometry (which already competes with siege towers for worst thing in the game) is worth a whopping 4 damage, on 12.5s rate of fire. Nothing about it, especially being on the worst civ, screams ban this. Exploit or bug with it?
I could be wrong but I think there is a possible bug with that, where ALL ranged units get the additional damage that's why it's banned for now.
It's bugged and buffs every single unit including mercenaries and archers by 30% dmg
You shouldn’t live your life in half context. The saying is “a jack of all trades is a master of none, but it’s always better than a master of none.”
Drongo is getting there in term of pronunciation!
So the worst civ has a good upgrade that gets banned and people wonder why it is the worst civ.......
I suppose that's because the upgrade is bugged, but I may 100% be wrong
limitaneii
also regarding greek fire treb upgrade for byzantines, sounds to me its the warwolf treb splash upgrade that england has, but not shit, and threrefor banned.
She is busted
The problem with Johanna von Orleans ;) that is obvious here, is also present in most games when she is not facing a civ with good early game pressure. She really is too strong against many civs right now, just for being easier to level up against them.
Btw her name in English is Joan of ark. Obviously you do what you want, but, if were I you I would just call her Joan that way the french people 🐸 can’t hurt you 😂😂😂
Lmao why is everyone hating on the Greek fire projectiles. Clearly it’s not a bug, but a feature. Most games finish in feudal or castle, so it’s not as if it’s likely, so they should just embrace it as it is.
good job ozzy for saying jeanne dark right!!! 1 st time i hear it right from youtube age 4 ;)
I dont think you can say ones overpowered and ones underpowered quite yet. Ones just easy to play and tough to deal with, while the other one just needs some time to learn better. Imo byz is a brand new civ that has a ton of stuff and strats you can do while jdark is a french spin off basically so more people know how to use her faster. Give it some time first :)
as Byzantines what if you don't priorities sheep ( DO gather them and lead them to TC etc.) and instead built farm for oil?
You would probably want to get berries first, they get more oil. But oil is not used until age II, so it is not necessary to prioritize straight food gathering.
They should just make it so Joan dies all experience wiped and they have to rebuild. Because atm you kill it and you kinda delay it for a minute or two… doesn’t feel that impactful given how strong the abilities are
Byzantines should have early maa and cataphracts (a heavily nerfed version of it though). Cataphracts shouldn't be able to beat knights in castle on the other hand.
Jean (like blu jeans) Dee Ark
Your defiance is admirable.
Why is every single cast with Jeanne. Would love to see other match ups 😐
I'd like to see Jeanne get civ unique landmarks.
Spawning a cannon should be allowed close to a siege workshop.....so other companions close to keep ....now it's broken s*it.....
Consecration should also not be global.
Boom 💥
I am really hoping byz get a hand flame thrower unit at some point. Ideally (for me) they remake the imo academy landmark so that they can only get flame throwers from that lm so theres a reason to not always go foreign engineering.
I don't have a PhD however I feel like if Crackedy had put up stone walls in place of palisade walls then he might have been able to throw off Jeanne d'Arc's tempo enough to give him a better chance in the later parts of the game.
Havent watched the whole vid but if its in feudal then there is an unspoken "no stone walls in feudal" rule with pros
@@Darksiege357 it's not unspoken, that's a tournament rule, and it's stupid. If Relic put it in the game it's in the game, if it will turn your tournament into a cheesefest (which it almost certainly wouldn't now with the changes to walls since the launch of the game) then let it happen until the devs are forced to fix it. Also IMO a lot of tournament players don't think to build stone walls in age III when they really should most of the time because they're used to not walling because of that rule. We'd have a vastly different meta if people regularly used stone walls in feudal. I think Byzantine and OotD in particular are underperforming in part because of this.
Byzantines need some buff, they are pretty weak. Make the strong walls stronger and cheaper and buff a bit something else.
Jeanned'arc is no problem if if being countered by ottoman.
Chinese can countered it if only pyrotechnique tech return to the real valued. 20% more range and damage for all gun powdered units. There Chinese nest of bees might able to kill it as well as the bombard
So everyone just play Ottoman every game? Yeah great.
You ever do team games?
A PhD in Ufology is legitimate and don't let anyone tell you otherwise
🎉
I propose starting with a simple cistern buff. 10/15/20/25/30 percent gather rate
She can spawn a cannon?
No, Jean isn't growing on me... My hate of this op is growing though (says the fast castling Shaolin monk main)
I prefer saying Joan of Arc, its much easier XD
my suggestions to nerf Jeanne d'Arc :
- Make Jeanne levels scale with ages
- Reduce her range dmg reduction from 50/65 to 25/40
- Slightly increase her abilities cooldown
Having a blast with the Byzantines, really dope unique units and faction design. I feel like they will benefit from an Olive Grove reduction cost. It would make the first landmark more viable, and overall better farm transition and better mid-game. Also call the ressource "oil", I can't get how I can squeeze olive oil out of berries and fishes...
Fat surprise the Byzantines lose again.
Watching Jeanne d'Arc winning every game is becoming boring.
Getting what
@@user-bn1ns6xp3i getting the W. My keyboard gets crazy from time to time.
@@IorekMetal must not watch this channel a lot heh 😅
@@user-bn1ns6xp3i I am telling you that in this channel I only see Jeanne winning, of course I don´t watch every video, but I watch a lot.
@@IorekMetal well, bias does tend to skew perspective, particularly when the caster feeds into it
This whole expansion feels like pay to win. All people who bought the game originally should be able to play the new civs. Im sick of getting shit on by these OP civs like Jeanne D'Arc
The vowel sound in "Jeanne" is just "a", not "ea" nor "oa". If you want to improve your pronunciation, think of "Jeanne" as a single syllable: "Jan" (short "a" and short/medium "n")
I don't like when I can guess the outcome from the title :|
easily my least favorite civ
2nd
Drongo, The correct way of pronouncing Jeanne is not like John. forget the e and try to pronounce the a the same way it is pronounced in all latin languages. That's the correct way. The same a you have at the end of Maria for example.
Edit : Of course Joan is fine as well, we get who you are referring to :)
Tired of this french civ
Jeanne isn't too powerful. Crackedy made too many mistakes once the Jeanne player got to Imperial. But I'm guessing the developers will listen to the complaints and nerf Jeanne. Then the civ will be turned into a weaker civ than it already is.
Top drug consumer spotted dent take
calling it a weak civ is pretty fucking stupid, ngl. You must be clueless as to how the game works
People just havent figured out how to counter her effectively which is pretty easy actually: don't feed her exp
Ah yes. Its what I always say in every venture. People have not figured out how to be successful at business - just make profit. People have not figured out how to not lose fights - just dont get hit. People have not figured out how not to die - just dont get cancer.
@@johanlassen6448Winning the Superbowl is easy. Just don't lose
