New CP- Sorcs need new ULT, Overload Nerf? DK-Molten Armaments (same)
Losing the up to 34% buff option on Heavy and Light Attacks from the old CP really makes Overload a worthless Ult. Your base skills now hit harder than this in most cases. I'm hoping there is either a new Ult or a buff on the horizon for Sorcers...
Same with Mag.DK's who are already severely limited in play styles... There strongest single DD attack was a buffed out Heavy Attack with a Staff (which is exceptionally slow) or a Lightning Staff which was often effective at replacing the ranged spammable many other classes have---- With the loss of the option to buff heavy and light attacks through CP both these classes took a huge hit on the options for diversity
-and before anyone says "but you could defend them up to 34% also before and now you can't"--- was anyone actually doing that? People playing this style offensively would look to choose this tactic, but I don't anyone who was defending to the same extent. For the most part these were more unique "niche" builds... the kind of thing that keeps the game interesting, and also the same kind of thing that seems to be going extinct more and more each year
