The enchant changes are pretty significant, if you're running Absorb Stam backbar and Berserker/Poison front, you just ate something like a 200 Weapon Damage loss from Berserker and a 1k DPS loss from the Poison glyph.
Redguard ate, what, a 1-1.5k loss of max stamina?
So it seems likely that with a similar setup you'd see 3-4k DPS loss.
I don't know where an 8-9k DPS loss would be coming from, though.
What do you see in CMX that's different from last patch?
No real difference between races is good, as that implies balance.
Pretty sure all DPS could use a nerf, as it's been getting a bit too high.
Hopefully it's even across the classes though.
Doesn't sound too bad to me fro now. More testing required
I haven't done a bunch of testing yet, but using my standard Redguard stamblade setup I'm hitting ~54k on PTS right now versus the ~57-58k I was normally hitting in the prior patch.
