yeah, i just started using my banked collection earring again

i think its just appearing like its doing more than it should since i wasnt used to it. ah well.

Yeah it's all in the earring proc. They count as piercing damage so I guess the game calculates it as melee swings and procs off of them. That's why it's so nice even though it's so old.

Edit: the interrupt proc on the off stance is doing the same thing. You can see it's adding more chimes at the end too.

god people shut the fuck up already

Can we have this thread mysteriously dissapear please Pantz.

Personally I'm praying the damage hasn't already been done

The subtle approach didn't work on page 1, so I'm glad someone went right to spelling it out.

I figured this one out and it should get fixed in GU 39. Thanks for pointing it out.

i love the whole "shhh we know it looks broken but just dont tell anyone" attitude. what the fuck?

i'd rather be honest with the devs and have our class (or items affecting an archetype) be working properly, so they can then further tune balance without making drastic changes.

i hate sweeping nerfs to a class or entire archetype. i'd rather we be up front about shit that seems weird and let the devs decide if its broken or not. i want to know that my class is T2 dps, will stay T2 dps, will be balanced against T1 dps properly, and will receive the respect that it deserves in other areas of combat effectiveness.

the longer you cover shit up the worse it gets, because they balance the game around what's currently coming out of parses and whatnot. would you rather they decided that rogues were doing T1 dps now, nerf the shit out of something that actually matters, and THEN discover later that it's due to a small detail about melee damage based procs? great, another nerf coming, and then we're even lower than we started. brilliant.

gg brigs gg fucking stupid cunts

gg piss-poor shady attitudes that do more harm than good

"lets hide shit from the devs as long as possible so they end up with absolutely no respect for our class' playerbase"

thats a solid path to success if i ever heard one!
