Re: [Theorycrafting] Toughness is broken (or useless) for DoTs

Thank you! I have heard many times "DoTs ignore toughness" but it's nice to have _actual data_. I truly appreciate your efforts!

Re: Malus

Maybe this has been tried before, but could malus be changed to 'reverse AAO' - a proportional reward debuff based on population? To a minimum of 1, of course, but the zerg would have to have more members than a kill is worth in RR for it to get to 1 _and_ higher level players (worth more RR) might ...

Re: Engineer damage

>Instead of saying "nerf class X" or "ability Y is broken" Why not saying: "Buff people up so they can learn how to play their classes properly?" My usual response is to say, "As class X, how do I survive an attack like Y by class Z?" That usually elicits _som...

Suggestion: suicide command

Sometimes, in this game, you get stuck. Sometimes you get stuck _so bad_ that .u won't unstick you. And sometimes you get stuck in places or times (eg. fort, or instanced dungeons, or during a siege) where using your book, a scroll, or /stuck twice to get to Norsca aren't possible or are less than o...

Re: BG help, I want to be the very best

I don't understand the railing against a BG in wb play: - as the only BG in the wb on a keep lord, me dropping CD and FH on him sped up his death a noticeable amount. - CD and FH when defending the ramp to 3rd floor were also quite helpful as it maximized rdps burst and AoE damage And that's complet...

Re: [Blackguard] - Anguish tree overhaul

>You will often find yourself with ample opportunities to heal debuff several healers, simultaneously

Re: Timeline?

Relatedly, IWBNI there was a way to see bag winners of the last few forts somewhere. The last one of each fort maybe? Again with an API, perhaps.

Re: Timeline?

1. Understood. If the output is delayed by, say, 4 hours, then it really can't be acted on to cause an imbalance. 2. Definitely understood. 3. So maybe just throw up a read-only API with a reverse proxy cache in front to keep the world from spamming the main server with API hits? And then tell us wh...
