Which class would you like to see in the Balance Forum?

[sanii]

Its not about changes in WP mechanics as a salvation healer but rather RoR v AoR differences overall and as you point gear differences (and what most important availability of LoTD items). And my "friend" WP healer in AoR was consider sometimes as a self-sufficient tank rather back line char without losing a lot of it heal abilities - what is almost impossible in RoR.

So what i'm going to ask here is , why exactly is this an issue (Salvation in particular)? Doesn't it sound fairly ridiculous that you can facetank your enemies as a healer while still having higher output then cloth healers (And all of it facilitated thru OP Items and Renown abilities) ?

Also another factor to all this , it was much more frequent in AoR to find yourself against not only pugs, but SIGNIFICANTLY lower geared pugs as the gear and RR difference was massive(unlike in RoR) , giving you the impression that you can easily facetank the masses.

Long time ago when WAR was live i got an idea for some kind of all class balance

here it is make a resists and armor softcap tangled to wearing armor so:

tanks got 75% armor and 35% rez caps (don't start whine they still got block, distrupt and tactics reducing magic damage gona be usefull)
medium armor classes 50% armor 50% rez
cloth classes 35% armor 75% rez

what you think of it guys is it gonna be viable or current system is better, where everybody stacking armor?

It literally makes no sense for tanks to have lower resists than other classes: they are tanks, they're supposed to be able to absorb all forms of damage better than DPS and healers.

See the problem isn't the caps per se , you can still easily overcap yourself and enjoy the full benefits of stacking armor due to the fact that weapon skill and armor debuffs will put you lower ( maybe it would be a nerf for the clothies that go full on armor-). The actuall problem is the simple fact that it is way too easy to stack both resistance and armor towards and above the cap ( in the case of resistances). The amount of stats you lose for gaining significant resistance/armor boosts is negligible for alot of classes that stack/use them. And especially for healers who don't value willpower that will be the go to strategy.

Changing these mechanics tho is on a whole different level as it can raise numerous other issues , like ttk dropping significantly so its gonna require careful adjustments.

so you saying tonns of block and distrupt doesn't count as survivability besides of increesed HP

overcap and get what 2-5% more for what and cloth healers increase they survivability vs magic damage dealers.

the answer is ALL CLASSES, and the main question WHEN balance forums (after 70 sets probably so it's gonna be long time)

ps. magus and engi are good u just need to GIT GUD bit more with them

you definitely missed my point. In my first post I did not point to issues with salvation WP now or in the old times. I m just waiting for years (since 2010) to see balance WP and DoC offensive abilities. I think WP problem with melee (grace) heal or wrath tree its not only my idea.
