correction: It does break nightmare. Tested with shaman and paladin banner. it doesn't break with warlock dot because they don't even activate reflect. Already removed this shitty rune from my necro.

but if all the other cases are true, it needs to be changed to a special type of damage that doesn't get computed by skills. also it is very useful for PvE, if your tank is using retribution, all the mobs stay behind faster.

I tested with necromancer vs warlock and it didn't break the nightmare with dot reflect.

I don't known if any of you dear developers actually play the game but blade dancer is completely broken class now. And this is the result of 2 factors: 1) BUG on passive skill: The description of the new passive expert skill "power of the blades" says it only increase the damage of NORMAL ATTACKS, but in reality it is affecting the overall attack of Blade Dancer, boosting the power of all the skills as well. Blade Dancer was already a strong (but balanced) class but this is over kill. You guys picked the best melee class in the game and boosted it's attack to absurd levels. It is by far, stronger than a rogue now. 2) Changes on counter: I known you guys tried to change this skill as an attempt of balancing it because it was too strong. But the end result is the extreme opposite. You said you "lowered the damage" but in reality it got a damage BOOST because of the bug I described above. Not only the damage was increased, it stays on forever now. What's the point if a skill doesn't have any weaknesses? Before you could at least stop attacking the Blade Dancer while he was with counter activated but now you no longer can do that because it is activated the entire time. Here are my 2 suggestions: 1) FIX power of the blades so that it increases only the damage of normal attacks. 2) Revert COUNTER to how it was before.

Also necromancers are safe from breaking their own nightmares because of retribution. I equipped my necro with retribution and made a warlock use life exhaust on me. Before I got hit by dots, I used nightmare on the warlock and looked like retribution didn't work (thank god). Maybe it doesn't activate on dots at all.

lol even if the damage is low it is more game changing than we thought

My necromancer has +10 defense and got hit by 710 damage from a counter by a +10 BD. They increased counter duration so at level 4 or even 3 (if you have good cooldown) it will stay activated 100% of the time. They reduced counter damage by 10% but in the end that didn't matter because BD's new passive skill has a bug which is increasing the damage not only of normal attacks but all skills aswell. So that 10% damage nerfed from counter was immediately taken back by the new glytched passive expert skill at the cost of 0 skill points because even at level 1 it already increases 10% damage. Here's a summary of what happened with Blade Dancers on latest update: 1) Gained free 10% damage increase on all normal attacks and skills. (IT IS EVEN MORE IF YOU PUT POINTS ON THIS SKILL) 2) Increased counter duration so it stays active all the time on levels 3 and 4 3) Gave BD the ability to bypass shields and skills like barbarian's last wish Sorry roland but if you think this is balanced (or even intended by the developers) it only shows you don't even play the game.

up.

The game is great, but BD has some bugs which should be corrected and I already created a topic on "suggestions" talking about how to prevent arena abuse with loser party using a better ranking system (used in other games to prevent this kind of abuse). That's the only 2 things that I can think of that are wrong with the game, far from "everything is wrong in my opinion". For a reading on how to improve the ranking system I suggest you this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system For a reading on why using loser party on arena is bad thing to the game, have a look at this: http://www.examiner.com/article/how-cheaters-cheat-boosting

r0land, it's a mistake to measure how strong a class is by looking at arena season results. All arena winners are people who abused the system using another team who will purposely keep losing while the other team is on gladiator potion. That's another aspect of the game which should be improved.

But the main problem with BD (at the moment) is that he is over powered BECAUSE OF A BUG. If one class has a skill description that does not represent what the skills does, either the description of the skill or the the skill itself has to be fixed. I'm talking about the passive skill power of the blades, it has 2 bugs: 1) It is bypassing skills like shields and barbarian last breath. 2) It is increasing the damage of BD's normal attacks AND all BD's skills (including counter).

BD is overpowered, sorry had to say it

ONLINE

Hurray! Let BDs run wild with their broken skills during one entire month

Are we getting better resolution and bigger screen for PC on this release?

Will BD passive skill be fixed?

I really hope it gets fixed along with christmas update. I don't want an entire arena season with BD's killing everthing with 1 hamstring. This is a BIG issue specially if the blade dancer has 3 or 4 points on this skill.

Also worth noting that barkskin has a huge duration compared to it's cooldown so at level 5 you can keep 4 people on your party with defense boost 100% of the time.

barkskin only 50% defense at level 5 make it 80% for druid and keep current value for shaman because they are op now with healing totem. forest song needs to hit all enemies in the same map and be 100% on all levels. wtf an area stun that doesn't work 100% of the time what are developers thinking? also secret link needs to work without party coz I'm a retarded kid who wants my class to be the best at 1v1 (protip: druid already is)

what do you get with 300 medals?

BD is overpowered again. Roland said maybe they will fix BD's new passive skill (damage increase) which is increasing overall damage and not just basic attacks like the description says. Also there are reports on russian forums that this passive skill is bypassing some types of shield in the game. And then we have counter, it was already a problematic skill and it got buffed...

Add one option to enable us to see a very narrow rectangle (it could even be a green line) below the character's Name and Guild indicating his current HP. This is to make it easier for healers to choose the right target for their supportive skills.

Doesn't matter if the priest is "skilled" or not, any healer can just stay on the place yawning while priest tries to kill it. The only way a priest can kill another healer is if the healer is not patient and take unnecessary risks. Also there are a couple of good priests on Sapphire, but you guys will never realize it because you think best at 1v1 = good at that class.

Funny how he deposit useless stuff and immediately take the gold as trying to say "see guys, I take the gold but at the same time I contribute to guild". Stern is one of the worst leaders a guild could have + a big noob who can't control warlock.

Any words on this issue mr. Roland?
