Return of Reckoning

Emissary trying to salvage what he can in terms of communication, being the good Egg he is o7

But honestly, if there are statements like "I would wait until all the itemization patches have come through" from the official side, that just causes me personally to wait until all this balancing and whatnot is done with (whenever that will be) , before i play the game again.

The time and energy i am able (and willing, for that matter) to put towards RoR has been pretty limited for a long time now, overall state of RvR and willynilly (at least that's what it feels like to me) changes like the most recent ones aren't helping ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm very surprised that last patch was not pushed to test server.

When you have no intention of changing anything (or rolling back awful changes) why would it matter?

What server need is full reset and full new start with old gcd

There is items from Aor+Earlier RoR to compare power lvls, what effort is required to get this item and what rank is required etc. Funny thing is that all the best things in AoR When rr80 was max, most of them didnt require ANY Renown rank=)

Is there any word on when we can expect these itemization patches to come through? Don't want to run LV, buy triumphant rings, etc. on multiple characters only to find them nerfed soon after.

Next patch in may will be jewelry and jewelry sets. The patch after that will be Armor and their Set bonuses.

There will be released on the test server first?

Reason I and many people I know stopped playing is the constant changing of systems and balance. I don't mind balance changes but when they fundamentally change how the game is played too abruptly it leads to a need to constantly change and swap out gear which leads to costs which leads to boring griding gameplay and to be honest.. I can't be arsed. I want to come on play a game in a spec ive only had to figure out once and then enjoy the game. Right now it feels like I can't do that. When the devs have finished with the balance changing in its entirety then I may come back. I'm also waiting for the long anticipated RvR changes to come into effect.

That means weapon balance considered as success and you proceed with exactly same rules?
