Good job, I would like you to increase the range of Pyromancer's heat wave to 3x3 similar to Shaman's mortal melody

Can we still test other changes on the test server or is balancing test now closed by staff?

I noticed that the HP steal of Frenzy was reduced from 5% to 3%, but it wasn't included in the changelog.

Ok, once again ...

First, it seems Cleave had a +10% buff, not +15% as announced on 6th season launch post.

Holy Sword addition is nice visually, but it won't solve any experience issues (too long cooldown, misplaced, not enough damage).

All those together will raise paladin exp by something like 6-8% (10% on a spell representing 60-80% of damage - I don't count anything for Holy Sword ... because it won't add anything ). Way not enough to balance anything compared to classes having at least 2x more exp.

What you did on Holy Sword, simply do it on Shield Slam (with some tweaks) : problem solved.

More precisely, in what follows you have a complete reasonable way to go, offering a combination of medium AoE (by medium, I mean not great), single target boost, all those together defining a very different caracteristic gameplay. (Moreover, it's just a matter of modifying existing spell, not huge work to implement )




Finally, I just did a test this morning on best place for me. I barely obtained a 3% more exp. Why so few ? Because I was pretty unlucky with numbers of elite. What it means : buff is *so low* that I may even get less exp now (being unlucky) than before (being lucky) !


To conclude, let's give a very original and audacious idea I just got this morning inspired by my test : give paladin a permanent boosted enraged/elite rate. It would buff their exp *better* than this last "balance", and it would make them desirable again in party.

Hi,

Will fix the changelog.
The test server will stay open and new changes will be announced for testing soon. This is just the first introduction of minor changes.



Askja These are just the first baby steps towards a better balance. The goal is not to have all sub classes do the same experience / hour nor have the same hunting strategy but to rather keep them different from each other yet maintaining a fair experience / hour gain between each other. There is still a lot of work to do and new changes will be tested.

If you look carefully at my proposal, you will catch it's precisely my goal : different gameplay, and according to my calculation, a pala exp roughly equalling 70% of barb exp. To be tested ofc. But well, enough on that.


Could you please check Cleave buff ? Is it 10% or 15% ? I obtain 10% according to my morning hunt.

Home traning doll does not work for offline training. Is that right?

Hi,

Nice volley damage!


Was this an issue before? I am used to conjure enchanted javelins and I expect them to go where they already are in my inventory, not my quiver (since that is not the way to use them)

Shamans are still trash solo exp

Make hailstorm like cross ( on target is bad )
Increase damage mortal melody 5%%

Archer was good now, however I don't understand some of his cooldown spells
Example:

Rogue:
Hellish Voley I hit approx 600 with a cooldown 2 sec
Barbed Arrown i hit approx 1300 with a cooldown 12 sec

it would be more useful to use more area magic, my thoughts and at least it increases 15% over the Barbed arrow
Marks, there's a lot to comment on, your magic is useless, there isn't even a good aoe magic like rogue

Please, make sure that some quiver can be enchanted, and increases the stats of the "Areal Arrow" bonus, which to this day I don't know what it does, Maybe this can change the archer or himself marksman
