Patch Notes 19/08/2020

Not being able to search the other realm is annoying. I like to keep tabs on whose online in my destro guild and search to see if people are on to try and fight or group up on one side.


Also are you guys really NERFing T1 SW?? I guess I get it, don’t want to give new people false impressions that SW will be viable later on.

SW was beyond busted in T1. With the one reason being the DOT.

- Player kill credit for quests, tome unlocks and live event tasks is only granted to the group members of the one that did the most damage (the one that gets the loot). Previously anyone that did any damage at all got kill credit. Renown and XP works the same way as before.

Pathnotes need this

Nice little changes. No clue what the two above me are talking about.

if you are a lowbie in a warband its a good idea to take the kill x players quest, but not anymore

- Solo kills from solo players are now excluded from the AAO malus.

- The minimum reward scaler for player kills is now increased to 10% instead of 0% if level difference is too high. Or 20% if only renown difference is too high but level is equal. Previously this would scale down to 0% of the reward which would then get turned into the minimum value of 20 renown points.

What's this??? Some actual love directed toward solo players? I'm confused... Is... is this what happiness feels like?

I... I may actually get decent renown from fights I win where I'm outnumbered now...

Somebody pinch me, I think I'm dreaming...

Very newbie unfriendly. It's harder to get into a decent WB as a sub 40 or a new player - in which case you'll have a harder time getting quests/gold/exp. Not a fan at all.

what was the driving thought behind the kill change? Maybe if we understood why, it would quiet a lot of discussion. Seems pretty random honestly.

i guess, 'stop leeching, make a grp and assist your grp'
it's only for quest kill credit anyway.
rp xp are same as b4. u can still leech.

so sad ppl worried about missing 1 hit leech.

if you're tank/heal form a grp.
dps think they're main tank/heal are supporters. in fact tank/heal are backbone of grp, dps are supporters.
in the end, teamwork make it blurr who's main or support.
to feel that, u need to experience both role with same toon.

first step is getting in grp. second step is l2p grp play.
r u rdy?

What you said, it doesn't really affect the core/regular players anyway because they don't care about exp or gold.

It ends up only affecting newbies, who would.

Basically makes it less profitable to just zerg surf and tag enemies by doing AoE splash damage to all of them.

I love the changes you all make here and there, even if it means readjusting some play styles. Thanks for this clarification! I think, I think I may just be a little excited to play my choppa (single target) a bit more. As always, thanks for the work and WAAAAGH.
