I too enjoyed the old renown point system and never liked the new renown point system.

I did as well, you had to invest in core items and tiers to get to the really sweet stuff as opposed to just going straight to the good stuff.

I enjoyed that one more as well, you had to think more about how to do thing. Would it be technically be possible to bring it back or is it gone from the game data?

Nice, SH needs to be even worse than it is now.
Now, in addition to hit like a wet noodle, SH will loose the only advantage it has over other RDPS: mobility.

WHOOOOOOI!

Quick Escape!

To beat the gobbo, ya gotta catch the gobbo...WHOOOOOO!

/respec-renown-time!

FYI, Quick Escape and Run Away! don't stack in RoR.

Does it stack with weapon procs and odjira (some people have it as a reward)

Unfortunate to see renown abilities becoming must haves again.

[Penril]

My sources tell me... you are gonna have to test if they stack and then report back to us

[Morf]

I know this isnt the place to make suggestions however if the general consensus is that the older renown system is better/more balanced (and the files still exist for it) and that the current renown abilities like cw/rd and qe are there to better help players fight the zerg an option may be to give the full sov granted abilities (anti crit, morale drain, inex force) as the 5th piece bonus to other t4 sets (anni/conq/inv/warlord) that way players have the oh **** buttons and at the same time removes the crit levels (coz i know how much the staff hate how everything is crit focused) and also reducing the morale issues spoken about recently.

Using them at the right time will make fighting a zerg easier, likely increase TTK in general, reduce morale bombing/ease of m4 use on destro, reduce crit levels and give players who are more aware/more skilled be able to show it by using them at the perfect time, ofc i am meaning if the current renown point system is scrapped and the older version is introduced.

The AH change is going to be so amazing. Thanks! <3

Terrible ability, terrible implementation. For mdps it's going to be really tough, except, maybe, WLs. Time to dust mine off then. As if gobbos didn't already have enough means (+dps) to get away.

As for the requests, I wonder whom are basing your decisions on? I didn't see a specific topic on this quick escape

It's vice versa; good luck with kiting anyone now. As soon as you do damage to the melee, you risk that his speedbuff procs. As soon as it procs, he will close distance for the snare/KD. As QE breaks on ability use, melees get no disadvantage.
Furthermore we will see lots of tanks, with lots of speed and lots of CC thanks to additional procs from guard damage.
Welcome to WAR.
