Return of Reckoning

As the title says, do you plan on making balance changes compared to live (when T4 is released and all) ? If so, will it be only numbers tweaks or could it be mechanics/abilities reworks ? (for instance, AM or shaman's nearly useless mechanic, pretty huge changes to make WP/DOK melee healers viable etc)

Balances changes will be made that much is certain but when and for whom remains to be seen

For sure by the time we are in t4 the devs will make changes but we don't know if they will make changes before that

Extent of changes depends on whether we can change the client or at the very least override the hotbars / tooltips to show our reworks.

I was shown a document suggesting changes to make WP/DoK work better in their original role, but due to how the client itself works, some of them are impossible to do without side-effects, such as global cast time modification.

Ok, glad to hear you're at least willing to make change (I don't exactly understand how coding works but I understand it is not really easy to change things :s). I've also seen the discussion about WP/DOK (damn, I would be sooo happy to be able to melee heal ). Thx for quick rep !

balance changes after t4? that discussion will remain for our and our devs ancestors

Can you show us the document? It would be cool to see what the suggested changes were?

It was this, and that's from pre-release even.

Sneaky-or not- troll. Someone posted something on the forum so you need to bash for no reason. I was just asking if balance will change of is set in stone. I'm not playing dps healer (that's useless...), I just used AM/WP as examples of broken mechanics (instead of QQ nerf slayer-kotbs...), and for all i'm concerned by "dps" healers i'd only like to melee heal with a WP (as the class was orininally designed) ---heal, not dps, thx---

ps : I'm not even talking about current RvR, I was talking about end-game, who cares about current meta "balance"?
