Ode to Donuts-And Party Announcement!

Re: Patch week!

Appreciate the changes. However, I have the same concern as Thalric. I have been focusing on CON because I need that.

Melee folks can dump both wisdom and intelligence, and discipline.

Re: Upcoming Changes.

Layman damage-oriented guilds (mainly blademasters) were sunk.

Re: Upcoming Changes.

Fair points actually. Layman guilds, especially ones that give you defensive abilities and haste, will be of great value.

Healing, while still useful, has taken a back seat to straight evasion though. Healing compared to damage got a downgrade.

Re: Upcoming Changes.

Yes minstrels and almost all layman magic guilds and definitely all occ magic guilds where castrated. Hopefully the upcoming changes will help, but I can't see it returning to 'normal' as if it were, why all the changes then...just to get us back to normal? With the increased challenge in joining ma...

Re: Upcoming Changes.

Thanks Arc. My experience has been that things are much harder though semi survivable as my magic char. Much less powerful than before. I have no other char.

It does seem like it's taking more time to kill as well which is odd given that none of the changes should have affected that

Re: Upcoming Changes.

I'm not playing until this is sorted out. Can anyone give a sane reason why this wasn't approached iteratively? Even now? it's not like it can't happen. The only feedback I can give you concretely is that my bda encounters on the plains were toe to toe balanced (slightly in their favor if I had to g...

Re: Upcoming Changes.

Re: Snedecor First of all, I sincerely hope caster occ players will give the wizards a chance to adjust stuff. If the game is badly broken for casters, which it may well be, it won't stay like that. Second, to answer your last question: I am almost positive this change was thought up and implemente...

Re: Upcoming Changes.

Cherek, It's pretty clear that a large portion of Genesis (including me) find these changes simply unpalatable. I can understand, if it was useful, an adjustment of I don't know, 1.2x. But 2._x? Even if you just think this is the grandest hill to die on, you're really going to just shirk off 30% (at...
