inb4 whining about Goblins going megaspeed and a hundred reports about worried Order players reporting shamans for speedhacking...

[Stickzy]

Quick Escape, very nice!

@noiree Lets hope Odjira will never be implemented.

Thanks.

Quick escape is a speed boost which ends when you use an ability; some epic weapons already have this ability.
I'm on the fence about that renown passive...at least it's not improved flee.

is there a way to make QE not stack with Run away?

Aza, why do you fold to the arguments of a few people always, and then go along with what they say with something exactly like you do now with "enjoy your consequences". Most people including yourself know that they are bad ideas, and then when the community tries to get it taken out, it would take overwhelming support to change it back to the way it was. This applies to many changes, but mostly thinking about RD and CW atm.

Basically, against reason and logic you allow a few people to dictate what you do with the game just so you don't have to deal with the 'headache' that they give you, but it takes way more effort and support from the community to get the opposite done. Really is a shame.

tl;dr I hate the renown abilities and I think they do much more harm than good to the state of the game.

Oh boy; guess I'll be over there for the next couple of days, in my corner playing Vermintide. Enjoy guys!

And excellent bugfix/implementation on the AH front. You guys are making amazing progress as far as economic systems of the game go. Now all that's left is COD and return mail attachments.

Edit: In response to the above post: At the end of the day, this is still an alpha server and basically an experiment in progress. Not even the brightest mind could predict the exact outcome of a thousand variables that change in response to a small change in the underlying system (which giving everyone a speed proc is, and let's not fools ourselves this will be a mandatory pick up for anyone semi-serious about the game), even if it has been tried before on live. This game is a different beast now, as is the community and I don't think Aza was folding to pressure here, I believe that his genuine intent is to gauge the change and experiment, as much as it is to shut up the advocates of QE being implemented.
