Man..this aoe armor debuff is tough to swallow

Same meaningless changes for change's sake as SW. Fixing stuff that isn't broken with no long-term direction or logic.Sundowner wrote: Fri Dec 25, 2020 2:39 pm Why moving WL skills between trees? I get you u are making hunter more aoe oriented, but it messes with builds. for aoe build you will not be able to have finisher+pounce, because echoing roar is a joke ability and no one took it. and for ranked you want have heal debuff+pounce together. like, why messing with class that much? WL is already nerfed to a great extent.
Yeah changing BHA to not work in the assault is brutal. The defensive nerf is unnecessary as well. This spec is a late-game spec anyways, now it is even less effective. Maybe add an armor buff to it to compensate or speed buff.VindicoAtrum wrote: Fri Dec 25, 2020 2:35 pm Actual shock at 3x nerf to SW.
Swift strikes is garbage, so moving it core makes no difference whatsoever. Can see why you did it, to get shadowstep to where pounces are on other classes, but no-one cares.
"the range is reduced to 45ft and the defense buff is reduced to 15%." baffled. Completely baffled. Shadowstep puts you where your target WAS not IS when you land, so it's already a poor gap closer, now it's just much much worse than pounce/leap which can now dismount again, which SW can't do.
"- Broadhead Arrow : This ability require Scout or Skirmish stance." nerf nerf nerf, no more ranged ailment to apply shadow sting when in assault stance.
Why not just remove assault and come out and say "SW is a ranged ONLY class" cause you're getting there slowly.
I really wanna hear rationale behind WL changes. because anything WL will be good is solo roam killing squishies. with new trees in aoe you are a mara, but worse, in solo ranked, you are a mara, but worse. Also maybe swap cull the weak and primal fury as it is for mara? this will, at least, make some sense.VindicoAtrum wrote: Fri Dec 25, 2020 2:46 pmSame meaningless changes for change's sake as SW.

Echoing Roar interupt is an important ability for WL in warband play, agree through on why.jpg make the change.Sundowner wrote: Fri Dec 25, 2020 2:39 pm Why moving WL skills between trees?

Im fine with this nerf, I can now be aoe-spec and assault spec at the same time thanks to shadowstep being further down.VindicoAtrum wrote: Fri Dec 25, 2020 2:35 pm Actual shock at 3x nerf to SW.
