Return of Reckoning

I don't quite understand the armor nerf, while damage in RoR (not live) is the highest it has ever been at the moment.
Also you already nerfed armor talis a while back (- 27% if memory serves, from 180 to 132).

Feel like you're progressively ruining the game, trying to make it more pepes friendly ...

At the moment (and for quite a while), DPS in RoR is at the highest has ever been.

Apart from RP/Zealot changes (50 ft is pretty small), the greatest problem at the moment is the unbearable lag/skill delay in medium/large fights.
It's really disturbing that this problem isn't the absolutely number one priority (or at least so it appears).

You took another month to carry out RP / Zealot changes that were terrible and came up with ever worse changes.
Convoluted, half range nerf, requires to spec all 3 trees.
Get out of town.

That's my point, it's hard for cloth healers to fully give up defenses, hence the changes on willpower scaling don't make much sense imho.
Also damage in RoR has never been higher that it is right now after the ability rework (mostly for open rvr wb scale).

Me thinks these are very good and healthy changes.
I don't know why everyone is so evasive about using Discipline. I have all healers in the game and everyone uses discipline (even now before the announced changes).
Look at best healer in the game Halta (full healing bonus).

IB/BG ...

Firstly, I'd like to address the new healer tactic; Sacrificial Renewal
Sacrificial Renewal - New Tactic replacing Subtlety: Whenever you critically heal an ally, you increase the power of your heals by 15% for 5 seconds, but you also take 10% more damage from all sources.

I really like ...

6) Adding injury to insult, Zealots/Rune Priests will have add more willpower to maintain their current level of healing output, meaning they will have to give up some defenses.


Imo, this isn't a bad thing for the overall health of the game. One thing I've said in the past and hoping for was ...

Rituals and Master Runes ticking every 5 sec and being up only 10 sec (is it even 3 ticks?), it's a big hit on absorb tactic and 6 pc triumphant procs (or any other heal proc from gear).
If those ticks even count as direct heals, that is.
I don't see compensation for this in healing output for Runie ...

What gear level will be Darkpromise though ?
Also TOVL / Tyrant ?
Hopefully you won't be reintroducing the broken pocket items from LOTD either.
