Enchanter

• Strength 3 - Spellblade's Reflexes: Increased piercing skill bonus, increased Riposte percentage to 1% per rank.
• Strength 4 - Quickening: Added melee attack speed bonus of 5% per rank, but does not apply to 2-handed weapons.
• Agility 2 - Chronosiphoning: Removed freehand requirement. The amount of casting speed returned is reduced to a 1:2 ratio from what is debuffed.
• Agility 3 - Chronomotion: Increased recovery speed bonus from 4% to 6% per rank.
• Agility 5 - Perpetuality: Fixed ability so that only one triggering effect is on the enchanter at any time. The color of the perpetuality icon becomes "warmer" the higher the casting speed bonus granted from the proc.
• Stamina 2 - Touch of Empathy: Increased range from 5 to 30m.
• Stamina 3 - Empathic Aura: Increased healing critical to 2% per rank.
• Stamina 4 - Empathic Soothing: Increased hate reduction to 1% per rank.
• Stamina 5 - Sever Empathy: Renamed Sever Hate: Now it wipes a few hate positions of hatred that target ally's enemy has towards them. Can be used on raid allies.
• Wisdom 2 - Daydream: Now it reduces hate radius and the chance that the encounter will respond to help.
• Wisdom 4 - Dreamweaver's Trance: Also improves reuse speed of your mesmerization spell by 0.2 seconds per rank.
• Wisdom 5 - Hypnosis: Reduced power cost and casting time. It can affect a weaker epic non-named target for up to 6 seconds.

Those are the official notes, I'm more of a wannabe illu, so you guys are gonna have to tell me if anything matters from those.

Recovery speed increased, still need an empty secondary for perputality(other than that it was unchanged). Overall change for our DPS, very very slim.

After thinking about it, I think the new DPS Spec will be:

AGI, 4-4-7-8-Perpetuality
INT, 6-4-4-8-Volatile Magic

Reasoning is that well, now we will have 12% Casting Haste from Chronosiphoning, 42% Recovery Haste from Chronomotion, and 14.4% Casting Haste from Chronology, and the last 60% from Perpetuality, a total of 86.4(94.4 with a bard that maxes Allegro). Whereas our old AGI, 4-8-8-3-Perpetuality spec would give us 15% Casting Haste from Chronosiphoning, 48% Recovery Haste from Chronomotion, 5.4% Casting Haste from Chronology, and the last 60% from Perpetuality, a total of 80.4(88.4 with bard that maxes Allegro).

However, one thing you may want to change is instead of 6-4-4-8-Volatile Magic, 4-6-4-8-Volatile Magic, since 8 INT isn't very much of a difference, whereas you'd gain more damage on our melee CA which we can now use with any weapon.

solid reasoning as always.

so we can use the attack with something in our off hand, but all other abilities remain the same from AGI, being we still need off hand empty.

(hope so anyway, don't want to have to get a decent second symbol :P)

Dude, we can get 8% Parry/Riposte instead of 6.4% Parry/Riposte, and of course let's not forget the extra 40-Haste Mod we can get! Imagine, 40-dps, 40-haste, 40% Double attack on the Star Forged Bo, it's AMAZING. Shit, I wish I could get more DPS Mod, oh well I guess I'll deal with 70-dps, 140-haste, 70% Double Attack.

While you run around with a big stick remember to set your pre-fix to "spellblade"

This might not work as it said nothing about removing the 2h requirement for this spell.

Pinski

It didn't say removing, it added it. Fuck, bastards are going to ruin my DPS then. Then again, why the fuck are they even adding that requirement? Considering how fucking weak our melee hits as it is, there is absolutely no point in going STR line anyway. So fuck, remove this dumb change before it goes live, and in fact makes the line even worse than it already is.

Any chance the non-removal of secondary requirement in Perpetuality was an oversight? The loss of haste didn't seem as bad when I thought I was getting another symbol.
