I absolutely love most of these changes! Yet all I can think about is how strong the community could have been for this game if this kind of support was given in January instead of May. Why oh why did it take 6 months to get them?

 

I wonder if it had anything to do with waiting for respec items to be implemented.  Whatever the reason, it's incredibly exciting to see this kind of forum and community participation now :D

  • Where are those who told me Unbowed suck and Warcry was better? COME ON NOW!

 

 

I'm right here, still advocating for Warcry instead of Unbowed.

 

Getting aggro is still the Templars weakness.

 

From a Guard generation perspective, my current build isn't going to change since it already had Unbowed (and Bodyguard), but I suppose Unbowed will be more of an "Oh ****!" button than it was previously.

Venatori Commander battles will be far more interesting now, I like it all, even the Archer Long Shot nerf!

Sweet!! Alchemist buffs!!! Immolate too!!!

 

I agree with most of these, but one thing that stood out to me was the Walking bomb buff. I don't think that was necessary. Winter's grasp would've benefited more.

 

Having these much earlier would've probably kept me interested.

Did Explosive shot have an elemental fire component before? I don't recall it being around before, but it certainly is here now while I am wielding a bow with a Fire Rune.


Yes im pretty sure it did.

YIKES!!! 

I just got into the necromancer recently and now nerfed  :(

And then my favorite class finally gets a purple bow (and not even one of the best purple bows from what I hear; I'm definitely not shooting 3 arrows at once) after 6 MONTHS with a crappy gray bow and he's hit with a big fat nerf!  :crying:

 

Ok I'll get over this...I just need this vent though

Most of these changes didn't bother me.

 

I don't even mind the nerf to long shot,.. but the lego?

 

Come on man, that was just mean,... The poor guy had One Job!

 

The nerf, like many have said, only really hurts players with low promotes and/or poor gear.

 

The people with high promotes didn't need to play the lego anyways, they have several other options for surviving in perilous pugs.

I approve.

 

In all seriousness, though, these buffs sounds great. I get the nerfs too, they seem fair. Some shorter WF, some less walking bomb damage, a weaker Archer's lance... It actually sounds like the classes become more balanced, so the Hunter won't be considered a 2nd tier Archer you pull out when you're tired of spamming Longshot. Alchemist and Hunter are my favorite rogue classes, hopefully now I won't get kicked out of the lobby when picking an Alchemist at Perilous ;)

 

And this has nothing to do with anything but tonight I dreamt I was playing DAIMP with Luke and his test crew while they were running around on a level that was half Narnia and half Fereldan castle... I should probably stay out of the BSN forums for a while ._.

Double Full Draw nerf, Longshot nerf... Explosive shot better be awesome now because Archer is running out of actual archery abilities.

 

jk death to the railgun

 

 

Curious, though, is the game being balanced more around high promotions or low promotions here?

Mostly good stuff, although as a frequent archer without a longshot ring, and recent fan of the Legio but not having many promotions to up my critical chance, I'm taking some nerfs. Despite my love of archering, longshot was probably a bit too good, so I'm ok with that one. The lower duration on walking fortress seems pretty huge to players with low stats and / or less than great gear. Not a fan of that.

I've one request, why not change the Caltrops to Legos? It seems more approriate with the buff it just gained. Stepping on those things left me some permanent damage.

I like the flask of frost, immolate and spike trap buff. I need to re-spec immolate and try it on Perilous

Luke you're doing balance changes all wrong.

 

We should be hearing massive howls of rage not "Yeah kind of agree with that"  

 

 

 

Not had a chance to give it more than a quick look over yet but overall feels like Yeah kind of agree with that  ;)

"This is an outrage! The forumers would step in if the Devs nerfed a Keeper ability!"

 

...am I doing this right?

Luka is awesome now. 

 

Also Walking bomb is still epic with the nerf.

-nerf major archer ability-

-You can play with caltrops now people-

 

Yeah, because that's what I wanted as an archer. Clearly.

A bard MAGE and now this? :angry:

And why nerf WB while not buffing any ice spell to compensate?

It was a justified nerf to long shot, in case you didn't realize, caltrops is the true defining ability of any seasoned archer.
