Not too much info yet, full patch notes supposed to come in the morning. Electromagnet/Chaotic Rift getting the nerf bat. Squig herder getting some major love. They want to reduce the amount of CC in game as well apparently.

IDK what destruction will do now !?!?

they're a 1 trick pony, who mostly won't even come RVR or run scenarios if they don't have their

Magus/Sorc combo.

Oooh, I love to target those little goblin guys and beat the snot out of them, maybe now they will have a few more tricks in thier bags or be able to successfully 2 vs 1 me instead of me killing two and still walking away with half my life bar.

On the server I'm playing on - Order will only run Tor Anroc Scenario ...

It would be nice to be able to get into some of the others at times without a 3 hour wait. I'm really not sure what the fascination is with that one as shoving people into lava gets really old really quickly.

T1-3 everyone just picks the quickest Scenarios. You can do Artifact (or whatever the item is in each tier) 2 -1 compared to the others. T2-T3 we average 6-8 minutes to complete those types of scenarios compared to 15 pacifies or flags themed scenarios.

I just hate to see everyone utilizing scenarios as "the quickest way" to level. It really saddens me that people are not taking advantage of PQ's and questing. Everyone is grinding their way through and not enjoying the game. However, I guess people would like to see what's at the end of the road and also take some keeps/cities.

I'll just link. The list is HUGE.

What I see as important, I may miss stuff due to not knowing a given class


GENERAL CHANGES

*The following classes have a free (and forced) respec due to changes:

* Black Orc
* Bright Wizard
* Chosen
* Engineer
* Ironbreaker
* Magus
* Shadow Warrior

ROOTS

*Non-morale roots now cause a 5s root immunity when broken, and cannot stack

BLACK ORC

*Their snare loses its cooldown and deals DD instead of a DOT, making it spammable as a Gud Plan if you're willing to pay the cost.

*Their ws debuff skill cooldown is lowered, increasing their effectiveness against melee

*Skull Thumper now makes players take extra damage from crits. If this works with sorcs, it could make a nice combo

BRIGHT WIZARD
