1. "ASAP" - are we talking about several days or rather several weeks time frame?

1. Days

Question, any plans on making it easier for MDPS to contribute in keep sieges to get higher probability of loot?
Because as it is, RDPS will keep getting kills by shooting down stuff (that melee cannot reach) and tanks can always get contri from ramming doors and tanking Keep Lord, whereas MDPS keep always drawing the short straw.
My BG has managed to get maybe 11-13 bags from keeps, whereas my WE is somewhere at 5 or thereabouts, both with similar hours played. (WE 7 days, BG 5 days old)
Not complaining, RNG can suck, but it is extremely kinky for MDPS for now. (especially those with lesser AoE capabilities that help in crowded areas like keeps)

New gear sounds promising, gotta keep farming as usual.

Also another question, as it is currently, lairs spawn with a random timer between 2 and 3 hours; will this continue in the future, or do you plan on changing the respawn mechanics somehow? (camping 1 hour would be less tedious than cultivating 3 hours in a cave)
And, any idea if currently broken lairs bosses might be fixed? Some were partially functional in old WAR, but currently are broken. (Talabec, Ostland, DW...)

Thanks for info

Side note can you please consider not increasing health/wounds on new sets? If so thanks in advance.

Man o man, this is awesome ! Can't understand any of the complaints about RR. Rollback means you can keep playing 1 toon for ages again before reaching top and getting bored. This is great.

And 3 new sets or gear + weapons is the best news piece we got since T4 release. Maybe the renown ability change will be even better news !

Thumbs up : you blokes are making faster progress on a dead Marc Jacob's game, than Marc Jacobs is actually making on his new game !

ty ty.
Also : can i be a GM now ?

Good stuff.

Roll back to RR 0 for all I care.

So much new content WOW. Looking forward to test everything when it wilk show up.
RvR inside Boss Lair looks cool. End year event gave us great fight near the giants. If Boss Lair fights will be similar then we will have something epic. WAR everywhere (almost ).

When roll back will happen the lowest rr someone could have is 43? Or I didn't understand something?

Renown compression wouldn't affect anyone under RR43. Everyone above RR43 will be adjusted proportionally.

RR43 |---b-----------c------------------------------w-------------------------------r------------------------t--| RR80

RR43 |--b---c-----w------r-----t-|RR50

Again, this doesn't mean RR50 is the new cap, that's just the target range to start making adjustments. People will still be able to level up again, but there will be a different set of mastery benefits in place.

Thanks man.
Considering that some of those changes will be here in DAYS it's greatest news since T4 release. You make a great job
