Re: What is a DPS healer?

it might be controversial for me to say but i really do think tanks and healers shouldn't even have DPS masteries. We already have plenty of DPS classes and players in the game and they cant spec into healing or tanking, so its so lop sided. A healer that doesnt heal and a tank that doesnt tank jus...

Re: [Swordmaster] Roll back (mostly) to December

The fact that this discussion has completely ignored SnB SM tells you everything you need to know about the viability and success of two-handed SM. WoDS is not only one of the best tank abilities, it's maybe the best ability in the entire game. I haven't played mine in a bit, but I'm a dumbass SnB ...

[Swordmaster] Roll back (mostly) to December

I was going to make a series of individual proposals but maybe just better to put in in one spot. I have no idea what the balance team is planning to do with SM, but I will say if it is left in the current state it is functionally crippled class as the new doesn't even begin to make up for the old n...

Re: Dev restart the balance to the beginning

After ability patch orders are doing way better esp at wb level play. Just check last 5-6 lotd. Replacing pull meta with proc meta changed so many things. These macro changes favouring orders realm more. Individual balance got his up and downs but that is process that is not over yet I don't think ...

Re: Idea for future balancing & incl. explaination why.

Never. If you want accurate mirrors play GW2, TESO, WoW. RoR is as unique as DAoC in this regard. Ror community is quite conservative in this regard. Including me. You forgot to mention Star Wars: The Old Republic which was essentially made by the same folks as this game (and has the same mechanics...

Re: Idea for future balancing & incl. explaination why.

I do not understand why you think homogenization will make for different meta setups. If anything it seems like it will cement metas even more. Asymmetry, while making balancing difficult, also provide opportunities for creating new interesting niches. IMO the "balance" efforts went off th...

[Swordmaster] Change Heaven's Blade back to resist/armor buff

Revert the change from the December patch that turned Heaven's Blade proc from a resist buff to a resist debuff. Rationale: Heaven's blade is only marginally useful as a general resist debuff especially considering you have to hit and proc with it compared to Knight's aura "which just works&quo...

Re: SM 2 tactices should be buffered

Any tank without a decent punt is just dead weight. That statement shows very limited thinking. Also, to the original suggestion, there does need to be something where the effects carry over to encourage stance changes. The entire point of the SM (and BO) mechanic is they need to move through them....

Re: Post Ability Rework Balancing Roadmap - Developer Update March 2024.

Thanks for the update :) Something that would be nice for the upcoming balance forum you mentioned is a feedback template for us to fill in. Just something that can make feedback a bit more constructive, as often feedback is just "I died in RvR please nerf!". +1 I've got some strong thoug...

Complaint complaint complaint. Ppl on this forum are only capable of complaining. I wouldn't liste to such ppl eaither.
