Undocumented WP balance fix. Working as intended.

Great job guys. Thank you for all your precious time you've spent for this game. Cheers!

I love the news, and as you said, Genisaurus, these are not permanent, but there are a few points I would like to reply to;

Genisaurus wrote: - In the central zone (e.g. Praag), one faction holds each keep. In the end-zones (i.e. Chaos Wastes and Reikland), one realm will start holding both keeps. The attacking realm will have to fight harder and harder the closer they push to the gates of the fortress.

Not sure if I like this. It makes attacking more difficult, and defending much easier. Better without Fortresses/CS, since it prolongs the fight, but then later on with these working...

Genisaurus wrote:Experience, Renown and Influence rewards have been added to zone locks.

This I don't like -

Genisaurus wrote:Additionally, zone locks will grant Officer's medallions.

This I do like. How many medallions?!

Genisaurus wrote:The rewards for zone locks, kill quests, and keep captures or defenses will get worse as you are pushed closer to your own fortress. The rewards become better the closer you get to your enemy's fortress.

So defending is rewarded worse and attacking in a better manner?! Rubbish.

No more purple skull white dye drops? Awwwww.

Yay!!

Genisaurus wrote: - Some set bonuses related to mastery trees have been reworked. They now add free mastery point(s) to the indicated mastery tree. These points are lost when removing the gear, as are any abilities or tactics you no longer qualify for without the bonus points.

You are not serious here, right? Please, tell me you ain't.

1 - Slot the full armor; gain Mastery bonuses.
2 - Run to a trainer.
3 - Try out a new armor piece for how it looks like.
4 - Run back to a trainer.
5 - Try a new armor set for a different tactic.
6 - Run back to the trainer again.
7 - Slot the wrong item (accidentally; wrong item clicked)
8 - Run off to the trainer holding back your tears.

And again and again and again and again.

Trying/using different armor sets you painfully gathered for different tactics - requires running to a trainer?! Each and every time you switch for sc/rvr/pve...?!

Seriously?! o__O'

First you should maybe watch your tone. Asking the devs several times if they are serious seems for me like telling them they havent thought this through.

Second. Activate the addon 'Anywhere Trainer' and Train your masterys everywhere.
For a respec you need to be touching a flight master while using the anywhere trainer.

Damn, you are right.
The old bonus was much better.
And i really like your suggestion how to solve this differently. At last someone who doesn't just rant into the ether.
Seriously.

Any updated versions of that addon available anywhere? the version that comes with the game is...

Hey! someone make an updated version!

Sarcasm does not win anyone's heart or paticence. Argumentation regarding a specific aspect of the development appears to be very unwelcomed and I have not even once in this thread wrongly accused anyone, insulted or misbehaved but only giving an opinion regarding a different aspect of the tiers.

Thank you for your time.

Yes, well, I don't take kindly to someone jumping into the T4 announcement thread to essentially demean and question our approach based on some issue that Mythic themselves failed to solve, which is population spread across tiers. Perhaps you should have thought about what it, personally, means to members of the staff who have been working hard on preparing T4 to have a layman coming into the T4 announcement thread to criticise their development priorities and complain, as a tester, about what the user experience is like and how the developers haven't satisfied you.

Believe me, it's tiresome when you get a thread up about some positive change and there's always some person who doesn't actually contribute anything but still thinks that they get to rain on the parade by making a complaint about some trivial thing and just not dropping it. Sure, you have an opinion. Notwithstanding the fact that you're not on the team and as such shouldn't actually be questioning our development priorities at all, there's an appropriate venue for that opinion. I would have hoped that players had understood by now that patch note threads and content announcement threads are places where griping about minor things is extremely unwelcome.
