- In general, what are your thoughts on the class balance in this update?

NB is dead...give us something so people need us in trials. and put siphoning strike magicka based again so i dont lose stam to build up stam...its stupid
[Please also remove the recent homogenisation to sustain! Necrotic Orbs and Blazing Spear should be separate (one gives magicka, the other gives stamina), the fact I can't choose my resource pool I gain sustain in as a tank, is very very silly, and not strategic at all.
Tanking is really just not that fun right now either, I assume no one plays a tank the sustain nerf to them was just really awful, I was hoping for some good changes in how I manage my resources. Instead, I can't even control what I get back, I ask for shards and get magicka back because it's my lowest resource pool. I have literally no idea how you guys imagine we spec our characters for this. It really makes no sense.

They're just going to spout the same exact nonsense that we've seen from dev posts on the forums. After seeing what skills got nerfed into oblivion and what skills a certain new class you have to pay for has, I don't believe any of the reasons they spew forth.

At least give them the benefit of doubt and actually wait for what they have to say before you accuse them ....

Hell BOL being as strong as it is isn't even the issue.
BOL being a 28 meter find-the-lowest-hp-dude-who-made-mistakes-and-heal-him-to-full-whilst-faced-the-completely-opposite-direction is the issue. AKA smart heal. Nerfing BOL to have a conal search pattern instead of a massive giant circular radius would be the proper fix for BOL spamming magplars. This is why BOL has invalidated other magicka heals in PVP - because the skill literally takes ZERO tactical or situational awareness to utilize. Just button mash and heal the right people.
THANK YOU

THANK YOU
As a more casual player, having to visually find and aim my character at whoever needs healing would make the game rather difficult for me to heal people in groups/dungeons, and rather impossible in trials with 12 people, and beyond impossible in PvP..
Just spam-bashing BOL would also drain my magicka rather quickly and is not something that casual players can afford to do..
But go ahead, kill gameplay and make it even MORE impossible for casual players even more than this patch already has..
Continue to cater for the top 1% (just like Trump) and this game will die...

Or maybe you shouldn't be able to instakill people from stealth without providing any chance to react because that ruins the game (especially solo play) for the other 95% of the playerbase?

Stam nightblade will be fine next patch ..... Other classes like Stam DK and Stamplar just got hit hard... honestly my stam dk feels like my night blade without cloak and spike damage.... i carry a shield and yes i can block but its pretty bad atm I'm out of stam in secs....

Stamblade an what cloak/fear?
because there's little to no use for cloak with the changes, unles you start stacking magicka regen...

Heavy Attack was already a great way to get back resources.. but making the game more reliant on it makes combat very clunky and less responsive... It turns PVP into more of a burst meta then it already is... blocking is rendered to expensive to actually use for stamina classes... with defensive combat becoming way to expensive the offensive meta takes hold...
Many people have played the game for 3 years we have built our toons from patch to patch. With every patch we hope to become more effective and stronger. In this type of game people build characters like they build a house ... people have put years in now after all the building and getting stronger this patch literally destroys metas... It destroys unique builds .... It's makes everyone character weaker and some classes and metas received 6 to 7 nerfs stacked on top of their meta...
Another issue I see is balancing when you compare PVP and PVE..... some classes are drastically affected in PVP while not really touched on the PVE aspect...
