Patch Notes 22/08/2024

[Sulorie]

Is there any word on the barrier issue? Please don't let this brew for too long, it causes unnecessary frustrations.

[zayabis]

**** patch. there are thousands of other problems that need to be fixed, and they drag the server even deeper into the bottom with changes that are not needed at the moment. developers are dunces

[calipso]

Any chances to place guards back in scenarios where they used to be and make them work?

[Mortgrimm]

With the ws / ini changes it´s time to delete the melee dps. Wasn´t really playable before (i can say it for pet spec WL) and it´s even worse after the patch.
Tbh, i have no clue who came up with this idea.
So you don´t need to fix the pet. It´s not needed anymore.

Additional calculations comparing stats before and after:

I can't help but notice there are no Knight/Chosen case comparisons in that doc. Anyone care to work up a few, or comment as to why not?

"- Weapon Skill now grants 0.5% block strikethrough per 100 Weapon Skill."
ws change by itself is good, but numbers of strikethrough are ridiculous, as well as the fact that it affects only block without parry

my choppa/SL lose another 11%-13% parry... init gives parry now but how about dodge/disrupt? do i have to stack will power on choppa?
its right its time to ditch mdps, zero point to play one.

If so many new opportunites about "optimazing" gear are open i would like to Ask those authors what atm can warlord geared 2h BO do?

As Everyone know class itslef is bit weaker than other 2h tanks.
With full physical abilities and low str BO had to stack weapon skill to make their abilities anyway useful. Moreover IT was boost to parry in both self and guard defence.
So now 2h BO needs to go for def what's is stupid cause dmg output will be not much higher than snb
Or
Be glass Cannon classs without both dmg and survival compared to cost of investments and other classes.
Iam not even talking about 7piece warlord NERF too.

So this decision just destroy 2h BO (and 2h kotbs) but nobody cares because others i suppose people with higher influence on decision making get BUFF for AM Shaman, RP, zealot and range dps in general.
I cannot wait for even more ppl siting on keep walls or even more range slow for classes with single 60sec removal which is useless to all punta etc.

As we know this kind of change is in favour of order while they use more range dps what is completely fine itself.

Ppl who spend months to farm end game gear which is useless are tricked hard.

Ps.
Kotbs players we know Your Pain too.

I can no longer comprehend the balance process nor your vision.
I take a break until you are done with all class overhauls and then decide if I come back.

As an quite old RoR player, i am amazed to see people forgeting that all those changes intends to serve this community so ... Big thanks to all still working on this project, it may never be perfect, but you keep it alive.
