The only thing I don't like about this patch so far.

The change to stop pre buff sets is really annoying as a PvP player. Trying to use clever alchemist before engaging my opponent is pretty frustrating as it won't work. Is there another way this could be altered? I'm sure I could get used to not hitting it until in combat, but regardless you are already on the back bar to activate. It could potentially keep you there if you don't reply offensively fast enough.

    Yeh, the change to armor master really sucks.

    With how many people there are ganking, keeping a shield up and having those resistances as you're moving around is a big help.

    As that scenario may be true, there are much more people using it to achieve builds that don't die.
    This patch and all the changes is because of the way the community acts...

    It was actually a change made for pve. As players were activating a set and then swapping their gear before combat to boost stats beyond what should be possible. Set effectiveness in other content is a side effect of altering pre buff sets.

    Quick gear swaps that are enabled solely via add-ons should be against ToS as they give a competitive advantage. This must be a PC only problem.

    This would be eliminated if the buffs were removed when the sets were taken off.

    It's a Dev miss that you were ever able to accomplish this game.

    It's poor player sportsmanship for anyone that used this and thought it was acceptable.

    You're not supposed to get 6 set combinations. It was BS in the first place and you know it.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Earn it.

    IRL'ing for a while for assorted reasons, in forum, and in game.

    PC players don't play with or against console, just other PC players. Hence all PC players have access to the same tools as all other PC players.

    There can be no competitive advantage in using addons when everyone in your player pool has the exact same options as anyone else. Personal choice to not use them bears your own personal responsibility and consequence.
