BW and upcoming dps patch

[diedrake]

I would love to see 4-5k crits again. Would make targeting the BW or sorc the main reason, rather than " free RR".

That or un-nerf bw/sorc mechanic and have it like it was on live.

This whole defence meta with all the bubbles, constant disrupts, and whatnot that RoR has implemented has made dpsing so anoying.

they could remake the dark magic/combustion mechanics something that, instead of masochistically kill yourself, empower your casts as much as she gets high.

Bw and Sorc mechanich should also give them a huge % striketrough, since the damage you get from it was already nerfed.

i do not agree on that or would make def stat worthless to have in game in the first place.
instead combustion/dark magic should give progressive damage boost and, only at 100%, give little backlash damage (not 750hp per cast like now!)
Players need to have a form of defense against nukes (wether be melee or ranged) so, to compensate, i propose the following:

Dark magic (combustion, don't bother me on double naming you got the idea! x3)
0-20% - no benefits, no boosts, no drawbacks
21-40% - 15%dmg boost on spells, no drawbacks
41-60% - 20%dmg boost, 1% spell crit. 10%chance to get 0.5% of base health damage as backlash
61-80% - 25%dmg boost, 3%crit spell. backlash to 15%
81-100% - 30%damage boost, 5%spell crit boost. backlash to20% for 0.5%base healt (no wounds calculation taken in as addition) of backlash damage.

Remove backlash from ALL spells for both classes and make it happen ONLY with dark magic mechanics
rework "shades of death" to something like BW "fireball barrage": that spell is pathetically trash.

Rework "Piercing shadows": now gives al your area of effect spells a 15% damage bonus and increases their radius by 20%, but your single target spells will deal 15% less damage. (same stuf for BW)
