Indeed rogue is one of the weakest classes right now. I suggest you make a BD on elf side or change to Barbarian on mc side.

No, you are wrong. All the dogs take the same damage regardless of how many dogs are spawned. I have tested.

great ideia, but won't be implemented because aigreed will lose money.

This is one of the best talents in the entire game. It's FREE 13% damage reduction calculated AFTER defenses and resilience. Also, even if you have 9K hp, the dogs will still be alive after you die. Calculation: Suppose you have 9000 hp and you start taking damage with the key talent active. Redirected damage = (13/100 * 9000) * 3 = 3510 Dog hp at level 5 is 3.6k ish on level 32.

The problem with seeker is when used with stun buffs (like I said before: potion, food, scroll, horror talents. No need to sacrifice resilience). With daggers you can easily permastun + big damage one target because high attack speed = more chance to proc. This is my only complaint. Maybe nerf stun stat and make it proc only once each x seconds so that the target can find a gap to defend himself.

Guys, stop downplaying seeker damage just because you are on their faction. Seeker with dagger and stun buffs (from pots, scrolls and horror passives) is OP, period. It has nothing to do with him having better gears or better amp. Unless you are a DK or a barb, you will die before you can do anything. And BD is op because of the stun/debuff ignoring skill and insane damage. BD anti stun skill lasts for too long and let's him completely ignore one stat/aspect of the game which is resistance. Yes, mage and barb also has anti stun skill but for some reason they gave a much better version of it to BD.

BD and seeker are overpowered right now (BD always was).

Please fix the talent UI. It get's messed up every time you go to login screen to change characters. Only solution is to close the application and start again.

up, still not fixed

I have relic of magic reaction on my necromancer's nightmare and sometimes it doesn't activate when it should. It started happening after one of the recent updates. To fix this, I always have to go to skill menu, turn off magic reaction relic (select another relic instead), save, select magic reaction relic, and save again.

Sapphire is down

Seeker is op right now, but developers are very slow to do anything about that (this is why blade dancers stay op for a very long time before it gets any nerf).

LMAO at nerfing necro even more. Now you can't even use poison shield to defend against rogue's first strike on stealth! Also, poison activation can now be blocked and dodged (which doesn't even make sense) No offense but you guys are a joke, this is one of the reasons this will be forever a amateur game run by amateur development team.

Currently, necro is the worst pvp class in the game while blade dancer is #1. Yet, developers decided to nerf necro AGAIN and buff blade dancer AGAIN. Shows how clueless they are about the game. I have both charmer and necromancer (both properly geared) and the difference is like day and night. Necromancer is absolute garbage for pvp and will be even worse after update. Removing the acid rain + poison shield combo is the dumbest thing they could think of. It's like the philosophy behind their decisions is "make necro easier to use but at same time make it worse".

How can game developers be so clueless about blade dancers being broken?

Developers hate necromancer. They just make the classe easier to play but weaker.

You developers really hate necromancer WTF! You gave it a little damage boost on Deathly eye and Nerfed practically everything else from the weakest pvp class in the game! Holy shit!

Introduction As of now, the necromancer class can be described as a supporter/debuffer with many situational skills and indirect damage. I suppose this is what developers and game designers had in mind when designing this class. This a good concept that doesn't need to change. However there are a few problems with HOW this concept is implemented, specially considering the current meta: 1) Skills are too situational It's ok for some skills to be situational, but some of them are completely useless depending on the scenario (I'm talking about "Fateful connection" and "Dead Soldier"). 2) Lack of Survivability In the current meta, many classes can quickly dish out a lot of direct damage. Necromancer can be easily killed even if you play at the backline trying to support your team. This is further aggravated by the next item in the list: lack of range. 3) Lack of range Most defensive skills (heal, shield, nightmare, panic) have poor range. This makes it exceptionally dangerous to support your team given that necro is very frail and still has to stay very close to the heat of the battle to do some support. 4) Lack of skill synergy Necromancer skills simply just don't work well together. Specially considering all of it's stuns (nightmare and panic) are interrupted by any kind of damage while also considering necro has a lot of "area of effect" skills with periodic damage. Mix in with Warspear's infamous "position desync bug", and you have a very frustrating class to play. 5) Resists This is perhaps the worst problem with the class. There are too many ways to resist debuffs in the current meta (relics, resistance status, expert skills). This makes it so that half of necro skills will simply not work sometimes. So in the end of the day you have a very frail class with skills that won't always work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Skill balance suggestions Here are my skill adjustment suggestions considering the aforementioned problems with the class: Deathly eye We understand deathly eye cooldown had to be increased because of the introduction of relics. But that made an useless skill even more useless and impractical. Suggestions: 1) Deathly eye has a chance to remove one of target's positive effects. The chance of removing positive effect increases with the skill level (being 100% at level 5). 2) Now the "deathly eye" debuff increases the duration and power of other debuffs (could be only infection and mental pit) inflicted on target. Duration of other debuffs increases with skill level and number of "deathly eye" stacks inflicted on the target. 3) Now it can be "comboed" with "Fateful connection" the same way as "Infection". Nightmares Now only direct damage attacks can remove the sleep effect (damage over time like poison, poison shield and "Fateful Connection" damage won't remove sleep debuff). Fateful connection Now the skill also reduces all the targets resistance stat to 0. Dead soldier Skill will always spawn at least 1 soldier, even if no corpses on the area. Mental pit Now it can be "comboed" with "Fateful connection" the same way as "Infection". New expert skill (Ancient Will) Increases the range of all basic skills (not expert skills). Can also be used on allies. Duration and extended range increases with skill level (could be only 1 or 2 yards extended range).

I see a small step to the right direction with those balance changes, specially some skills now being affected by player base level. Even tho necro and priest are still garbage on arena and nothing more than party supporters on dungeons. Still not enough to bring me back to the game.

Where's the new mechanics? This is more of the same with different sprites. Sadly, this won't be enough to bring back players like me.

Funny topic, I kill paladins easy. Tip: Stay away from banner and don't be close to your teammate or else fetter will stun more targets from your team. The only class who needs to be nerfed right now is barbarian.

Does level 28 get book from berengar tower heroic? or only from mythic?

Was this on the first test day? I heard they nerfed it on the second open test.
