Return of Reckoning

[Combat and Careers]

General

• Divine Fury, Fanaticism and Murderous Intent will also reduce the healing output of lifesteal skills.

Neither experimental DoK/WP nor experimental AM/Shaman were designed around this being the case, and AM/Shaman mechanic lifesteals are already reduced as they don't have the Raw type.

Will be reverted. Committing to mode lockout instead.

Disciple of Khaine

• The M2 group cleanse "Khaine's Withdrawal" will no longer cleanse the Curse type.

This ability being too strong notwithstanding, Disciple of Khaine having the ability to break its own cleanse weakness (Curse) is part of what enables double and triple DoK to work.

[Experimental Mode]

Prayer of Righteousness / Covenant of Celerity

• Entering or leaving Covenent of Celerity and Prayer of Righteousness once again triggers a 30 second cooldown.

Will be reverted. Committing to mode lockout instead.

• Entering or leaving CoC or PoR also removes all action points.

Prayer of Devotion / Covenant of Vitality

• All damage inflicted is halved, instead of only on certain skills.
• The cooldown for the granted AoE detaunt increases to 25 seconds.
• The healing done by Sigmar's Radiance and Transfer Essence is 350% of damage dealt and mitigated, down from 550% (avg with tactic slotted: 600-700)

Without yet having the ability to reintroduce Divine Strike and Consume Essence, this is the best I can do with S'R and TE.

some big changes. Looks good, and fair.

Good changes, look forward to everyones writups because in all seriousness I enjoy reading them. Its changes like these that keep the game fresh for me.

Well that is a huge nerf. Guess we'll see how this plays out for viability of melle heals and DoK/WP new position/gameplay style in general.

Wait...damage is halved and healing reduced from 550% to 350% of the damage on top of that?

Yeah. It seems so. Nerf bat was much bigger than I anticipated even in "worst case" scenario.

"I don't really care if you stance switch between engagements (i.e. out of combat), but what I do not want to see is MDPS DoK/WP that can just decide to switch into melee heal with no penalty."


if you wanted to penalize them for switching into meleee heal then put a penalty on switching into devotion stance, not switching into righteousness.

don't understand the logic at all on the divine fury and fanatacism nerfs. i'm not gonna spam this thread like i did the last one though. bon voyage, ill be back in a month or so to see how things have worked out.

No. The damage reduction applying to TE, SR, SS, RS and DA was removed.

Shitposting - Azarael

Wo...

those are some major changes, the M2 DoK change alone is YUGE
