Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

Deeply disappointed with the changes to key skills in the destruction line

    The destruction line isn't getting nerfed just fire staffs incase you missed it Frost staffs are getting buffed to give damage shields on completed heavy attacks while wall of frost has gain a immoveable effect when enemies step into it while shock staff deals more splash damage to more enemies up to 6 now while shock touch can stun enemies now.

    So it's just fire staffs that got nerf not the entire weapon system so it doesn't mean the end of the weapon just impulse spammer like you cause there are no combos when it came to impulse just spam.

    If they want to buff the Ice and lightning staffs, they need to rework the staffs themselves. because they just don't flow the way the fire staff does... that's one of the main reason's most people use Fire staffs, i mean i want to use an Ice staff but i don't like the attack pattern pure and simple. reworking passives and abilities isn't going to cut it.

    This change basically makes there little reason to chose a staff over dual wield... which sucks because i'm a sorc, want to use a staff, but even now they fall short.

    @Lucky28 I agree.

    And another thing that annoys me with Wall of element, unstable wall in particular. You know the wall is made of 3 segments.
    After the duration they explode, but not together or in a row. 1 segment explodes and 1 second later the next ones.
    Wish the would explode all together, or in an predictable order. But not so random.

    Trinimac is my shield,
    Magnus is my mind.

    I think it would be cool if the elemental staff you equipped would change the element of your elemental class skills...well after they make each element valuable and competitive any way. So you could be an ice dragon knight, or a fire sorc.

    This looks to be a hard question. Much harder than this one. Can 6 Boxer puppies rip all of the stuffing out of a Sofa in an Hour? The world may never know

    I have to agree with you here.. what is the point of using a lightning staff anymore if you can't attack multiple targets.

    I always wanted to be a fiery Sorc. But it's just wishful thinking, at least until Spellcrafting - and if that ever comes, it will stil take a long while.
