I would like to inquire Balance Moderator on his opinion of what the game should be balanced around to better understand the direction Balancing will be going.

Yeah, it’s hard but now we know that if you whine enough you can get what you want
But I believe that the way with constructive arguments and proposals is better

Thankfully, the game isn't balanced around solo encounters. Any ranged/healer that allowed a Wrath WP to catch them is playing wrong (and healers also have access to flee/quick escape).



I'm struggling to envision what melee class you have in mind when you say Wrath WP does comparable damage? Are we talking scenario damage on the scoreboard, the majority of which is fluff?

Medium armor, as do 4/6 melee classes.

You forget that, in order to get the new Charge ability, one has to invest 15 points into Wrath: unless you are high RR, this means you will not be able to get Sigmar's Shield, and your heal spammable/Divine Assault will be significantly weaker; tldr, Wrath WP's melee healing capabilities are now lessened (which they should be, I echo that point of yours).

We do have the option to resurrect, and cleanse, and provide covenants - that much is true - but to suggest that Wrath WP DPS was in any way comparable to a competent slayer, WL or WH is wrong: we have incredibly bad tooltip numbers on our abilities, we lack a +% crit modifier, we lack any damage morales, we lack AoE detaunt (you can't pick this tactic up as a Wrath WP if you want to do damage), etc.




Onslaught PQs are currently being tested by a bunch of dedicated people. Stay patient.

Some friendly advice, now you are a balance mod. Avoid using terms like "we" when discusing classes. Gives folks summat to latch on and derail the thread into ad-nauseum bias. Try to emulate Torque's air of inpartial hatred and disdain towards the serfs.

I do like the tone of the balance changes. I would love every class to have three viable trees.

So he should be like Torq, yes? What about you let them do their thing, and you can work on your own things, Mate.
