I think you are right, they will see some love this next patch. From a personal standpoint though, it's unfortunate as it's going to make it harder for myself and my progression group in terms of overall DPS output. The last patch already made it harder to consistently get the core together, and now with the release of all these new games coupled with the potential nerfs I feel like my group will be at it's end. I'm sure another group will start up with passionate players, that should be how the cycle goes. Anyways, I do hold the right for judgement, but patch-history has shown that what PC gets is what we get on console.1 -

They will hardly rever d/s changes back m8.
Atleast in the next 1-2 moths.
We stil have to see templar and nb changes.
Maybe all this nerfs are top of the iceberg and when they done with all, the final picture wont be that bad.
And stil, they lack comunication.
Cant wait to see the pre release note.0 -
St_Anger✭✭✭OtherThe main problem of this patch are not the nervs. Everyone just acts as if people are whining because their dps got nerved. The mayor problems are, that there is no new PvE endgame content, so that everyone who already completed Sunspire HM doesnt really have anything to do until May. And the other big problem is that class identity got killed, or rather killed even more after Scalecaller instead of making it better. Every class uses the same gear, every class uses mostly the same skills and every class hast almost the same rotation. Also by standardising the duration of DOTs to 10 seconds dumbed down the rotation, that all rotations have basically become static, and almost no dynamic rotations or elements left.3

Basically, it invalidates the opinion of anyone who hasn’t loaded PTS and run endgame PvE. Apparently basic math counts for nothing. If you have run vet content with non-Hodor level people, you know what I mean. It was already difficult and will get much worse. Many parts have a DPS check to complete."Get off my lawn!"12 -

✭✭✭✭✭I have tested on the PTS and my complaints are a result of performanceI've tried out a lot of the affected skills on test, and my primary conclusion is that things take between 33% to 75% longer to kill overall.
Bottom line is: you will be spending a lot more time trying to accomplish the same things on live you try to accomplish today.2 -

Thanks, that’ll make it fairly balanced on options. There are going to be a lot of people complaining that haven’t either tested or read and evaluated patch notes, so that is a valid choice as well. I’ve seen bandwagon complaints on patches that did not majorly shift the entire game before. I hope to text on PTS this weekend, as I’m a bit nervous about how the math looks, but will reserve final judgement until I see how it plays out. There’s just too many timed enrage mechanics for DPS to take a major hit without really hurting mid tier groups.Edited by rotaugen454 on September 19, 2019 1:22PM"Get off my lawn!"0 -

hasi✭✭✭✭OtherI am from Console, don't own a PC whatsoever to try PTS.
Judging from the the Patch Notes tho, the Nerfs are pretty hard. No one can tell me that complaining about 60% Damage Nerf is overreacting. It's just too much of a big and rough Reduction.
Also, it will probably not lead to a "Either play Spammable, Dot or a Mix of Both"-META. Everyone with Eyes can see that they are trying to align Skills to the same Level to achieve above, but they took a wrong Path.
Especially taking a look at them Nerfing the 'OP' Scamp Pet while MagSorc already performs bad enough this Patch.
The only thing I probably like are the Major Sorcery and Brutality Thing, the Warden getting Buffs as I play one myself. But there again, I think they buffed the Warden too much. A Betty Netch that gives you Purge every 5sec, Stamina/Magicka, Major Sorcery and Brutality without any Cost?(At least that is how I understood it in the Patch Notes..)
Then the Aether Debuff on activating Swarm.. It's a bit too much.😅0 -

The 10 second rotation might actually help people who don’t have the lightning fast twitch reflexes as their dots won’t expire long before they get back to them, so there’s at least one benefit to slightly slower players.Alienoutlaw wrote: »rotaugen454 wrote: »Alienoutlaw wrote: »rotaugen454 wrote: »Alienoutlaw wrote: »rotaugen454 wrote: »Biased poll.

i think the idea of this patch is to stem the "meta" and encourage creative builds....hybrid builds are working very nice (i even tried a stam pet sorc) and i agree a free purge for warden is way to much (i main a warden PvP)1
