My take on the crit/armor set changes

[dur3al]

Am i the only one who like this crit reduc ?

Nah, im sure there are countless other players who main a kotbs or always group with a kotbs that slots dirty tricks who couldnt careless

Order biased change confirmed!

You guys know that they nerfed Kotbs and currently you can get the same crit a kobts gives on destru with a BG right?

It was merely a joke however if you are comparing crimson death to encouraged aim or dirty tricks then lol

This wasnt and shouldnt be a destro v order debate (for me) its the fact that the change was aimed at balancing classes that benefit from +% crit damage while it affects every class, itemization shouldnt be the fix for balance issues.

Itemization is the fix for balance issues caused by itemization

BW/Sorc/SW/SH, (AMs/Shamans too, yay!) Slayers, Order in general (leading shots + dirty tricks). Again, it's not a huge change, but it's a significant and not really productive one. .

We may have lower crit chance altogether, but still order side has access to dirty tricks and leading shots; so I wouldn't rly call that balanced.

Just a joke guys i swear.

Im puzzled, no gear gives +% crit damage other then epic quest weapons (which i believe are unchanged ?) and the whole reason was to tone down crit damage, i dont see heal crit itemization being an issue and as i have stated previously this change indirectly affects every class not just the classes which this change was aimed at.

If you take the extra +power given on weapons which replaced crit you would notice that classes with +% crit damage tactics/career mechanics now hit harder then before.

But i didnt post that did i, so yes what i said was a joke. If you dont have anything to bring to the discussion then i would prefer if you go look for an argument somewhere else, tnx.

What was the balance issue then? Too much reliance on crit?

[blaqwar]

The issue is power creep.

I obviously didn't mean the absence or presence of power creep being the issue.
