A stopgap to handle the item loss issue.

Focused Offense 25% damage when?

LUNATIC! Grab him!

I'm just all for progress. Increasing the level cap will bring more progress to the alpha and get us closer to T2. If T2 isn't far away then maybe suck it up for a few more weeks, get the wipe, and move on. Losing items after server restarts sucks but it's part of the Alpha. Some people of course will leave which is why i think Aza feels like doing something about it. If the cap gets increased to level 15, so be it. I don't care if you increase it to 13, as long as we're moving forward and have some new toys to play with.

On the bolster buff:

Azarael has fixed it on his server, so a lowie char in green gear equal to his level will be competitive to a max. level char in green gear (stat wise). Once the fixed bolster is pushed on the live server, they won't be the easy cannon fodder anymore like now.
As there are no renown abilities yet, the major difference to max. level will be additional abilities (if the lowie chars don't run around in white starter gear...).

IT IS, for DPSs, but thats not the point. 15 no, please. LOTS of unbalanced tactics lay in the 15 barrier. Runefang is 15, Lingering Fires is 15, Hastened Divinity, Wild Gambit, Ensorcelled Agony, etc.... That barrier is noticeable. 14 is good. One more ability and one more tactic, most if not all PvE, or f*****ing useless like Focussed Offense.

Yeah, I know exactly which tactics are in there for obvious reasons

It just seemed like special attention was being devoted to Divine Fury in particular.

Wasnt mean for you but for the people raging at it. Sorry, type have that, u cant see my face while

When people claim something is not balanced, while they fail to grasp the real cause for the imbalance.

When people claim they need to stay in a lower tier with inexperienced players that are experiencing WAR/ROR for the first time in order to be competitive in RvR they fail to see the irony

[Bozzax]

Basically no gear advantage with the removal of lotd items below rank 40 and minimal RR advantage with XP-off.
Funny when r26 chars have more armor than r39 chars.
So what you are complaining about?

Show us the real bolstered numbers of a level 22 RR 33 WH compared to a 39 RR66 WH plus difference in abilities and tactics. On top of this we have
Increased damage from training
Potions
(Pockets)
(event items)
Talismans
Cookie cutter spec vs regular joe spec
Add ons
Experience on how to play
Right rotation

I talk about WHs like xxx that 2-shot newbies and will do the same without LOTD gear

Sorry but you seem to be too dumb to read my posts or you wouldn't come with this example. -.-

All your points are valid for r40 rr80 chars as well, as it is only a matter of time to become max rank. You could have newbies, who don't play like retarded, who ask for help and learn fast. Furthermore you should be aware that the vast majority of players here played WAR at some point and aren't totally inexperienced but my confidence in this fact is sinking as the thread continues.

You have absolutely no clue what rank 26 chars can do in T3. I just have to look in my screenshot collection to see that.

This is just lame bandaid solution like most of the bs Mythics implemented. Lvl 15 will be facerolling lower ranks no matter what, isn't it obvious. Voting for cap increase is like voting for complete imbalance.

Soo even if lvl 14 cap will be implemented it must be rolled back to normal after T2 goes live. So whats the point, just wait for T2.

No, it is not obvious unless you enter rvr naked. Rank 15 were not facerolling Rank 10 on live server and they won't do it here. I say rank 10 because you need a certain amount of core skills to work as a class.

How about ranks 5-8 ? You know you don't have exploits now to level up faster like before. There is no T2 so all lvl 14 will be permanently running in T1 wrecking all who don't have gear of their level. Its obvious you just don't want to see that.
