Patch Notes 30/9/2017

[peterthepan3]

I wanted IB to get a bit more love in the way BG was treated and all he got is a slight buff to irrelevant to warband setups auto attack speed. I'm disappointed, not enough QoL improvements on this side of the realm

With destro getting WW, it seems, is there a chance to get the nerfed version of Big Brawlin' or any effect added to Phoenix Wing or Redirected Force. Btw, with this change it's time to revert the Shatter Limbs nerf, since the main argument for it was the lack of a viable CD decreaser to counter it.

Agree regarding WB, but for 6man? This could be very nice. Shall start testing.

FYI. This change just killed any reason for us to ever use Choppas and Sorcs in our warband.
Some tweaks need to be made for Sorcs now aswell.
And lets just hope whatever you have planned for chopp fasta! bring em back in.

Is their no other class that can be used as effectively to bomb with?


I thought the higher uptime CD reducers would make choppas more viable in wbs but talking around it seems to have had the opposite effect

Mara, SH, outperforms both Choppas and Sorcs in terms of both dps and utllity.
Sorcs and Choppas being obvious choise in warband is long gone, like 2010 long gone.

Only reason to take a Choppa is coz of 3-2-1 Party with 1 Choppa and 2 sorcs. Now you can't benefit of that anymore due to Never Ending Agony not stacking with CDR, Both classes are just straight up the squishiest ones you can bring and doesn't even do the moast damage.

20 sec duration roughly anytime to 10 sec duration conditional is a big change.

To get the same effect now you either take 2 BO's with knockdown...HAVE to be in melee range. Time it perfectly and hope nothing gets defended. For theoretically 100% upkeep. But in spec lines that traditionally don't do damage.

Or you take a BO and choppa which limits group comps. Again you have to time it perfectly. Anytime on choppa and hope the BO doesn't get defended. Theoretically 30 sec's of chop fasta. 10 knockdown + 10 chop fast + 10 knockdown again.

Choppa's might loose the effect in the future also so...

I really dunno how I feel on this... I guess we'll see. Gut reaction is No. But I we'll see.
