Even a Sorcerer will vaporize you in a few seconds if they know how to play their class. The Slayer is absolutely no longer something to fear, as it’s clearly below the average melee DPS. Too many unjustified constraints for a DPS that is clearly lagging behind.

I would like to respond to something I’ve been reading in multiple forum threads, namely that the balance team would ignore player feedback given on the forums.

The fact that we don’t actively engage in balance related discussions on the forum doesn’t mean we don’t read or care about the feedback supplied there. I personally try to read through every balance related forum thread. The reason for not joining the discussion on the forums is simply one of time and energy. Additionally, there is a balance focus group where the balance team does more actively engage in discussions related around balance and our future ideas.

But between designing, implementing changes, doing bug fixes, having balance and other team meetings, engaging with the focus group, reading forums and actually playing the game (somewhat important for the balance team), there is just no time left for me to also engage on the forums in any in-depth way.

There will be adjustments to both Slayer and Choppa in the next patch, which I believe is planned around mid February.
