Magus

So same up planned for engineer for "sniper" skill reduce 3s to 2s cast?

They're not. It's a PUG tactic for PUG use in cases where RDPS is heavy and Guard is lacking. No one playing in a proper comp that has Guard is likely to sacrifice damage for it, and it doesn't stack with Guard and detaunts by design. If we have an imbalance in how good the melee classes are on each side, let's tackle it separately.
I won't be so sure of that, especially for those premade running 6vsX, that will make them very resistant. Let's wait and see :)
No melee premade will use this tactic.
Well, not necessarily true. Why wouldn't you use it to save yourself from a BW/SW burst load + a tank punting you out of guard range?

Brilliant argumentation here, lol. Fireball and Fiery Blast both have 3s cast, shoul the Devs make one of them 2?

I suggest you to move forward mate, tell them - now Magus is the only dps class in the game with 2 x 2-second casts, and that is definitely not fair. :mrgreen:
Last time I checked, Fiery Blast wasn't part of a single-target rotation?

@Lil: you're really going to give up a tactic slot for situational usage like that? You have two tanks, defensive M1s etc, pots for ohshi moments. I just don't see people giving up a tactic for an ability that first necessitates that you hit someone with a ST ability; good luck getting off a ST ability in the air.

Even though I don't fancy the change to Soulfire since it dumbs down dok/wp class even more* you need to do the same to Fell Sac (~mirror)


* one less useable ability outside of spamming aoe heal, aoe hot, clns, st heal and gather

Yer getting soft is a waste of a slot, 3 seconds means you'll get 2 abilites off with 1.1s GCD, and its limited to Da' Savage path.
Keep On Choppin' is pretty bad, as 100AP is negligable + rage drop...
Healdebuff/Snare has low tooltip damage, not a great option to use.
Furious Choppin, I can see its use there, but its rarely picked up as GTTC is better.

Then all that's left is Throat Slasha and Go for Da Soft Spot, which might be removed from Da Savage to nerf ST of SL/Choppa while going AoE tree.

Stab you Gooder is a great tactic, but I think Slayer AA haste is a better DPS tactic.

On main topic:
New Retribution/Bring it On seems decent, if a little AP Heavy. Will be going on my hotbar for some RvR testing.

Hello,

I am sad to see another patch modifying classes while many other work has to do, see recreated, of course I have trouble understanding the nerve of rampage, the up of magus, black orc, SH but exceed this change, my question is simple: the flight of the players does not make you asked questions?

I hope that Mr. Aza's post will be a positive sign .

but you seem persisted in your strategy of change on a moving basis which seems to me very far from any constructive logic.

I have been on your server since the beginning and I carried a lot of hope in you ... it's sad

Good luck to you

I think he means 'does players leaving not make you ask questions?'
