Default time compression nerf for the loss! GU37 Updates discussion

Quote:
Illusionist
  • Illuminate: Increased duration to 20 seconds.
  • Time Compression: Reduced casting speed bonus from 25% to 20%, recovery speed from 50% to 40%.
  • Split Personality: Forces ally to taunt. Pet taunts are more effective, and it taunts the entire encounter throughout the duration.

  • Enhance: Illusory Allies: Increased bonus from 7 to 10 seconds per rank.
Too bad half of this shit is worthless, and TC got nerfed. Discuss.

its because 100% of illusionist take TC line

none of the other changes to the other 2 lines would make us drop either IA or TC line


if they want us to take other lines they have to totally redo them and make them actually useful

look at the other classes that had final skills nerfed lifeburn mana burn

its to get people to go down different paths

i am not sure that it will work with us at least with wizzys they have there ice shape line to put aa points into and had improvements to that and useful skills to somewhat offset

Lifeburn got nerfed because it was pretty overpowered, manaburn was a complete waste of time.

TC got nerfed because it was kind of needed, but meh it barely changes anything, spells barely ever get resisted as it is so *shrug*.

Changes nothing. Just a nerf with a nice sugar coat of "we're trying to balance things". Not that I care because I can't cast it on myself, but yeh our sorcs are not very happy with this.

The more they buff propogation, the less TC is useful for a sorceror as a 2.4/minute proc for 15s is basically going to be up a huge amount of time, thus negating TC's usefulness even more.

It's a nerf, but it doesn't seem like the end of the world...

as a wizard...its kind of lame but its not a thorn in my side. bleh so I cast 20% faster instead of 25%. Thank goodness they didnt mess with its 10% recast. Either way its still going to put my casting on crack. And Manyak...I will always want an illy in my mage group .
