Return of Reckoning

Would definitely get my vote. More cosmetics would be a great way to keep people interested in their BIS chars.

I also had the idea that maybe 1 time per month you can buy a bound to account token of some sort, that you can then use to buy a higher lvl piece of gear on an alt.

For example, for ...

It's such a shame that they have nerfed this class even further. People have been asking for a long time for the devs to fix SL so that Order would have more mele options for WB play, instead they have made it substantially worse.

I'm general I have been very positive about most of the changes that ...

Best advice is to look for guild warbands that are running regularly in you timezone. Look for messages in /5 that says something like 'guildname' organised warband looking for tank/healer"
Doing premade sc groups on the weekends is also a great way to get to know people.

The most common reaction I see from people who play Order a lot, then roll a mara is 'this feels like cheating' when they get their hands on the pull. Put the skill far into the ST tree where it belongs, and all would be fine.

Most of the changes in the patch so far were ok, but slayer being ...

This is the second thread on the topic and many people talking about this in the patch notes section. Would be lovely to get some dev input on why this choice was made.
I really don't want to have another few years where Order only really has 1 strong aoe mdps.

This issue has popped up a few times over the last 2 years.
Best fix seems to be to use a VPN to change your region. This has fixed the issue for many people, myself included.

Slayer damage has remained roughly the same as far as I can tell, but has become a lot easier to kill with these changes. You are just easy meat to any sustained mele pressure or a couple of rdps surfing the warbands.
You have essentially 0 survivability. This can be offset on choppa pretty easily ...

Well here's to another few years of WL meta, merry Christmas.

I was going to write a similar post till I saw this well detailed post.

In general I'm a big fan of the changes overall and I have enjoyed the playstyle options that have opened up.

However, I have absolutely 0 idea why they have decided to nerf the survivability. You can just explode in the mele ...

Yeah kinda insane after people asking for literal years for this skill to be reworked.
Saw one guy today describe it as a 'high-risk, high-reward' skill and had to have a chuckle.
