Sounds a bit ironic the event name just in the same day of the nerf patch. Also, no changes for the most beloved skill rampage.

- Dreadful Agony - Only damages NPCs that are in combat, like it worked on live.

Lie, it never worked like that on live. During live, I used Dreadful Agony to pull mobs all the time. In fact, I used it to remain in combat in the level 1 Nurgling Pit in Norsca, keeping my character online all night while I slept. Gaining renown all night long every time the zone flipped.

So don't try to tell me it was like that during live. Have you forgotten you weren't the only people on the planet to play live?

I wonder what other "during live" comments are just complete fabrications in this list.

Mythic might have changed the ability at some point. But in the patch 1.4.8 ability data extracted from the client there's a check that the target is either a player, or an NPC in combat.

Forgive me, if I don't leap to believe you.

I do agree with you playing kotbs since the day it came out, there has never been a time AoA has ever not done damage to an NPC in combat or not.

However, you really need to give people like Dalen the benefit of the doubt. I may tease from time to time but there is only a handful of people that probably care more about this project and this game more than him.

Give him the benefit of the doubt, prove it wrong factually and professionally if that is the one thing you care about the most (the fluff aura). I love you all

[dalinvar]

so is it good change or bad for Mara and Chosen?

[Qojak]

Outstanding work! Thanks to the team for grinding this out and keeping the game moving forward!

Yes, this is a massive change, and it's gonna be a bit lively for the first few weeks. I'm looking forward to seeing how things are re-balanced past what it was in live over the coming months.

Is there any plausible reason why Judgement snare effect was removed?

I guess doks don't have the snare? I'd rather see it added to fist of khaine instead of removed from judgement. It's the only thing stopping ranged classes kiting a grace/wrath wp to oblivion.

[R1CH]

WL is extremely unfun to play now. You run out of AP after 4-5 abilities, not to mention the pounce nerf and removal of M2. I really hope this gets fixed soon, it went from being my favorite class to literally unplayable .

[Brakh]

Magus/engi nerfs sounds harsh. Are they any good now or just trash?

While Divine Shock(the aoe 30 sec cd punt) it's still not addressed in the sense that it has a 50% + chance to miss on cast, why the need to break the class even more ?
I guess i constantly have to remind myself to re-align my expectations, as i dont pay for anything here in order to expect ''anything'', even rational explanations.

Slayer is clearly weaker after this, even if Rampage remains the same. And its skill rework NOT balance patch just the balance that comes with rework to Live version. Both Slayer and Choppa got weaker, dont understand why they had to do that to Spellbreaker tho
