Return of Reckoning

Kotbs gets an armor aura and chosen doesn't because armor buff is already present on blork, and not on SM. Idea was to give a group buff to a class of every archetype on both sides i would imagine.
Pugs are unaffected, since they didn't generally use armor pots at all. Most complaints ive heard are ...

I've yet to hear an argument for removing Morale DR that makes any sense to me. You can already 1 shot with morale drops and you want to what.. make it require less people? Is this supposed to be a buff to small mans? Because it's not lol.

People somehow hold this belief and that 24man AoE helps ...

You picked a small excerpt from nocturnalguest's post and ignored the part where he addresses your answer.

Anyway, something not yet mentioned here is the way healers do support: both dok and zealot buffing is passive or mostly passive - covenants, runes, others. AM/shammy is mostly the same ...

At any given moment you are at most 1 gcd away from the punt and with stance shift you always have it ready. "Too complicated, please buff" must be the most pathetic reason for balance change I've seen on this forum, and I have seen much more than my sanity would prefer.

Those americans really are after RoR VIPs

Let me be the devil's advocate here. Deaths are actually a metric of how well a player does, in many different cases. Just not as a flat k/d value. Healer with little deaths over his/her career is presumably better at positioning and reading fights than one who dies all the time. And for a healer ...

That might be the first patch that is overall an improvement to the game ive seen. Now, to avoid praising anyone too hard, some changes (especially to morale abilities) are clearly made to remind everyone that there is a fair share of randomness involved in every balance decision that is made.

So everyone is shouting that proposed changes are imbalanced and too strong. Also they would mean two tanks do less than one tank currently for their own party. And using the very realistic scenario of delegating 4 tanks to guard 1 target to prove it. Oh humanity.
Then again, fitting mindset of ...

Not being able to punt BOs as far sounds fun in paper but in actuality it would be a balance nightmare to the point of breaking the fundamentals of 6v6. Kill conditions are built on punting tanks and the moment you can't do that you only further encourage the strongest and most popular 6v6 ...

Slice Through is only 3 targets by the way, not AoE.


First, nefarian is talking explicitly about smallscale where 3 target slow is essentially uncapped AoE. Blork slow does not exist in ST spec for a couple of reasons, those reasons being tactic slot starvation and 20% not being enough to ...
