DPs Balance patch??

[akeskin69]

Hi ,

So after the recent healer balance patch which made healers stronger dps than solo classes on order,, when can we expect some
Balance patches for the DPS classes?

[Ruin]

the healer patch is not yet done. And it was like 7 months diference between tank patch and heals, and you have 2x of dps classes.

This will be a long, long time coming; the concept of “in the near future” is not even applicable here.

And no solo/duel stuff is considered while thinking on balance i believe.

Small scale seems to have a lot of AM/ shaman / rps and zealots atm. They also seem to be really strong now and they were strong b4

Agreed. The current meta of send tanks forward as a 'front line', stand back and range around that front line, and POUNCE to low HP targets around that front line (and apply debuffs/dmg 360 degrees) create a disadvantage for one faction.

Specifically (examples):

-Choppa/Slayer need a mechanic change as their damage bonus negatives are too high
-MSH/ASW need some tweaks
-more embedded bubbles/absorbs that are part of an existing ability and not one more button to push in order to combat ranged while in melee. (example, modify Jagged Edge to also include a small bubble that can overwrite itself or a reduction of 'ranged' dmg, or even an incoming healing bonus on crit).
-change the guard range back to 30'
-change melee aoe abilities to 30', keep ranged at 25' or even smaller
-modify the base level of toughness to be higher on MDPS. Armor/Resistance and avoidance is too easily bypassed currently.


We are probably a few years out from this patch and am looking forward to some improvements for MDPS.
