Will [Imbue Weapon] be changed due to the LA changes?

Imbue Weapon doesn't influence LA damage, directly, but it does seem to still depend on the fact that you'll be light-attacking as a damage source. Will Imbue weapon be moved to HA?

    Bound Armaments called, they want their passive back.

    Siphoning Attacks called, they want a new mechanic.

    Wrecking Blow called, the changes make it exclusive to heavy attack rotations.

    How about we don't entertain the idea anything should be reworked, because their proposed changes should be heavily altered or reversed entirely given the fact that they don't complete any of the stated goals.

    This. Currently I still anticipate them to revert it all and leave it as it is.

    Lets hope... or at least leave out the parts that create too much of a fundamental shift.

    Highly doubtful. Zos is notorious for ill-thought-out changes such as this, sledge hamming global game-altering effects while forgetting to adjust the other parts of the game to match their reckless decisions.

    why would it? IW is just like any other spammable, you are always going to light attack weaving, even with the proposed changes, you cant weave heavy attacks, even with other spammables.

    no chance. They put it on the pts with no intention of reversing it. I believe it is going live and was always going to no matter the feedback.

    Exactly. They have already done the work to code it, so the money is spent. It is going in.

    Make imbue wep work for HA and LA, and possibly give it a secondary effect if used with HA.

    But why is there no response? It was like 2 weeks ago when they proposed this. Why would they not let us know what they think about what has been said so far?

    I thought we have a somewhat open dialogue here. Greymoor PTS starts in not even 2 weeks. So I would like to know if these light attack changes will be something we talk about in a few months or if they actually intend on adding it with Greymoor. Which would be frightening.

    Because it's not a proposed change. This change is going live, they have simply told us early so we can do out freaking out at such a huge change for a month or two before they make it to the patch notes.
    By then, we won't be shocked.
    They change the game how they want, not based on community it seems.

    I think a lot of good points have been raised. I would just like to re-emphasis a bit on the topic that [Imbue Weapon] is a skill that will be impacted by the LA changes, and I believe it's been overlooked. While the argument that LA will still be utilised for resource-gain is valid, and Imbue Weapon will enhance that, I feel like the nature of the skill as a spammable damage source will be more-or-less redundant, especially since the new LA will encourage multiple LA strikes in succession.
