MAGUS Patch : i love it

[chook06]

MAGUS: this patch looks like a massive buff to the class.

I’ve broken down all the before-and-after changes: new synergies, stronger pets, critical PBAoE, single-target burst, mobility, group utility… There’s plenty here to rethink several builds.

I’ve prepared a full analysis, with a quick summary for those who just want the key points and a detailed section for anyone who wants to theorycraft.

Not much to discuss other than, why would anyone not reroll to magus.

Still havent tested the new Skills ingame, until that all we have is guessing, still dont know if the Port skill is actually good. And imho SH won this rework for sure

These are still only assumptions until the patch goes live.

In my opinion, the Magus will become genuinely viable in a mobile single-target group composition, which is great. The new direction is clear and fun. The same goes for PBAoE and for the pet synergies, which now look really interesting across every spec. I’m very happy with these changes.

Honestly, in group play, the Magus was starting from a pretty weak position, so these changes should greatly improve both the gameplay experience and our overall effectiveness.

That said, the Magus may end up being too strong in solo play, but that does not really bother me since this is an MMORPG.
