Return of Reckoning

The question actualy is, what is the mechanic behind detecting stealth? We all heard rummros that Initiative helps detect them. But could we get a formula behind it? I have noticed that a loot more players, especialy tanks have been stacking Initiative since the change to parry stat, but the ...

Dark elves keeps, you can get stuck under one of either 2 lamp posts near outer oil placement spot.

Uthorin camp (Eataine), Druchii Barracks (Caledor) fence holes ; spikes all around floor, on fallen wall sections and tents/fixtures, are terribly annoying to deal with.

Rocks on various T4 zones ...

-Under the influence of FP, That front hit of AW is mitigated by 100
-And also the auto attack is mitigated by 103
those 2 are physical dmg and mitigated by armor and toughness

NONE of BOTH is without the mitigation of Armor.
AW in that dmg range without armor mitigation would have been in the 2 ...

Tested with flanking and FP gives full benefits of being on the rear arc, minus the parry/block bypass obviously. Bypassing armor, flanking damage bonus, etc.

Still think this behavior is an aberration, and instead of acting like "you are considered on the rear arc for 10s", Feinted Positioning ...

Adding complexity into existing crafting system which is already a chore to begin with, really unfun and time-consuming, wont make it more appealing I'm afraid...

Keeping things simple as they are, with "bonuses" of gathering skills while you can just play PvP or PvE and get crafting stuff is nice ...

Loading the profile into RoR planner displays two different talis on the weapon, guess it's a visual bug, probably the weapon been previously (pre-patch) equipped with two of the same tali, then after the change in some way it visually "retained" the previous tali, at least in armory...

Max achievable is about 68% crit on BaL, 30% with gear+RR, 4% from Talisman, 1% from event item, 3% by stealing Init, and 5% adding liniment.

With a bit of min-max you can achieve slighlty more (jewelry and such), but anyway the main issue is not the high crit, it's BaL hitting on physical, with ...

Just common sense at this point, WE middle tree, i mean stuff like the Wound debuff( in that tree lol). Middle WE tree is overtuned on steriods. For example it had a -120 WS/Toughness debuff(buffed with a previous patch to 150) and now it added another -150 wound debuff. 3 x 150 on basic abilities ...

I agree the two pounces are far too powerful for a high-bursting DPS class, that also got stealth and escape tools to set the fight's pace as they wish.

Consider removing the pounces entirely, making on par with the WH (which got none, and also lost the speed increase on Oil), and give WE an AoE ...

My advice is to RvR while in T1, then from 16 to 39 do scenarios, where you'll get most of your character against sub-40 enemies, instead of getting farmed in T2-4 RvR by lv40 geared players.

Otherwise, it means you will have to join groups or warbands to compete against most opponents ...
