    most of the changes are logical.

    they have figured out some of the top performance hogs is aoe so they:

    1) limited popular spammable aoes ( springs, orbs, vigor)

    more people will now take the single target vigor and the other morph has 2 second tics.

    2) they nerfed aoe dots and buffed single target dots so more will now use the single target than the aoe dots

    you all wanted performance fixes and this is how thats done.

    Why do people keep calling vigor a spammable? Spamming vigor does nothing but waste your stamina.

    Because good Stam players try to keep it close to 100% uptime when in PvP battles.

    What they don't want to acknowledge is how badly Stam HoTs dominated DoTs (and most damage in general) previously, so much that most Stam players never had the need for any burst heal and ran momentum in heavy instead of Rally, making it as mobile as medium. Now they can rock heavy armor but be susceptible to snares because they will need rally as DoTs slightly outpace HoTs.

    You can still use a 1H/Bow in heavy and have FM for snare removal and Draining Shot for the burst heal.

    They added a new, kinda powerful dot that I think merits a bar slot on an already crowded buff bar. But you are correct.

    This patch has already been badly received. On console, people are rushing to do content whilst they still can. But many have already given up; the active users in my guilds are way down and it's so quiet.

    I will be back to this game in a year or 2 and hoping for nice changes.
