1. What careers are you looking to rework next and what ideas do you have for their rework?

2. How are you going to be approaching future reworks are you going to do one career at a time or make smaller tweaks to multiple careers at a time, or do you have your own way of dealing with class reworks and if so, can you give us some information on how you approach reworks and balance?

3. Do you have any plans for making city more accessible?
Because at the moment city's rarely happen in peak times and it is forcing a lot of players to chase bags rolls, which is having a negative effect in other areas of RvR.

4. To help with performance a lot of players play with spell effects off but this is a problem in RvR because you cannot see enemy AOE abilities, is there anyway the dev's can change the graphics settings to allow more options to customize their spell effects settings such as adding 'enemy spell effects' or 'enemy AOE spell effects'?

5. Do you have any plans to make the open world worth exploring?

First of all ty for amazing work, here are some questions:

1. What is your view of balance now, especially in cities (since winrate disparity is more obvious there), do you think it is totally player issue or you intend to buff/nerf classes to get more balanced winrates?

2. As we can see order has huge disparity in WB viability of classes (i.e. kotbs, wp and slayers are kings of current meta), but destro has more choice (i.e. mara is far better than WL in largescale, mSH is aoe while msw is ST, etc.), which in the end gives destro more choices to build viable WBs. Do you think having very good, but limited roster hurts order and if so, do you plan to make other classes more viable for largescale?

3. What is your opinion on order having 1 cd decreaser and destro having 2 and both of them being a bit easier to use than order's? do you consider it balanced?

4. What is your plan on future balance patches, are there any plans on introducing new abilities or drastically change existing ones?

5. Do you plan to overhaul tactics, since a lot of tactics are pretty much useless and serve no purpose.

6. What are your plans regarding classes that underperform?

7. What are future plans for pet classes in orvr and 24v24, when pets melt and it is safer to run WL/SH without pet, do you accept that it will be impossible to balance pets in both smallscale and largescale at the same time or do you have some plans for them?

When can we get a guild vault log? It's very important for new guilds.

Are you satisfied with city? It seems to be one of the least favored parts of the game for a number of reasons. Any ideas or plans to revamp the end game gear progression and/or the way cities work?

Are there any plans for balance changes in order to address the heavy-melee meta?

So...was there a point in taking out appearance for us that really focus on it and it makes this game more enjoyable for us?
we lost it and in return there are still regular random lag spikes and dc from forts still happen(even on combat log off and effects off, .v and the rest)
now even bolster from pve to rvr lags harder for some reason
so we lost it for what reason?
so that those who blame lag on their losses can...continue to blame it on lag? no performance boosts have been achieved
and the argument that "players can mask their gear and get an edge"
WHEN??? in rvr when there are 40+ people on your screen
or is the Imaginary "new player" gona look at the gear he doesnt know and go "ahh man this choppa has only his loincloth on im gona win for sure!" insanity
Or for the extremely subjective "greater good" of the server...by just taking away and not even blinking (and having the arogance to just (did a poll,not enough results,results dont matter we will in pure spite keep it removed...Get ****)
lost a vital part of my game experience for nothing
loosing something tangible that was not broken or hurting anyones experience and fun of the game BUT ONLY ADDING TO IT...for a change thats intangible and has no effect to minimal effect is just...well ill stop there a grudge is never forgotten and never will be

[sleer40k]

will we get a city rework?
getting ch22 more viable?
more good items out of sets?

[badoglio]

- any intention of making city siege a pve event? (like just a wb fightning npcs in city) so people can stop complaining about useless balances when its clearly not classes balance the problem of losing it
(but yeah, maybe its the players fault, since its a pvp game)


- when 2h choppa /slayer 's rework is programmed?!



- royal weapons?!



- witch elf pounce is useless, it's a common knowledge, when witch will get a similar treatment like wh had?! (all witch elf players switched whs, its a fact)

Reverting guard avoidance change when?

[Gelismar]

Salvaging seems to broken for a few players, where when they go to salvage an item, the window comes up, but is blank...therefore, cannot salvage. The repair option does not work, and even uninstalling and reinstalling the game several times still does not solve the issue.

Are there any plans to try to fix this salvaging issue at all?
