You certainly have out performed every expectation I had with this patch

Sparky_Sorc · August 2019

I expected things with my magsorc and plar to be a bit strange but still thought we'll just wait and see. I've played around with all options today including stam toons and just find everything is clunky. Maybe a vague word but there is no flow. I realize that you will be working on classes next patch so we'll just have to extend the waiting period 3 or so months. Good luck devs, this is a mess.

Careful. You'll have the White Knights in here defending this patch and telling you to adapt.

It’s fine, just adapt.

I have to assume you mean pvp, because the rotation i've threw myself on and been practicing with the new dots has actually been pretty fun and new. Weird to hear, and maybe i'll get sick of it, but I was a bit tired of the "lay down 3 aoes then spam forever then rebuff" that we had for the past 2-3+ years. did a casual vBRP run with my group and we almost beat our personal record, and our dps was overall higher.

I can't afford to change or upgrade gear every 3 months ...too unstable. I adapt to change but give me a break. I need things to settle for a while. I dont want to feel stagnant but heck changing every 5 mins is soul destroying. I have many alts to look after so yea it can overwhelming.

The (META) Gear didn't really change since Summerset tho?😅

In Elsweyr Lokkestiz was added and that's it.

Thats weird since most AoE took a hit.

I thought our time would take a hit too but here's what I figure is going on;

aoe damage is aoe damage. Trash in vBRP will die pretty fast whether you have 10 aoes on it dealing 30% less damage or not. What matters in vBRP then is burning priority targets- infusers, bosses, gargoyles, stone totems, etc. And since single target damage has gone way way up, dealing with those priority targets was way easier. For example, usually we kill haj-mota in stage 4 just out of safety because we often get disorganized at that point and need to clear it out because we couldn't kill tames fast enough. This time we practically killed tames before it was finished spawning.
