Deule · 01-07-2009, 06:06 PM

Here are the notes on test at the moment that pertain to us:

Quote:

Taunts and detaunts can now critical similar to how melee and spell criticals work.
Threat output and hate position changes will now be displayed to the chat windows. You can find it under Combat in the Hate Adjustment category.
Hate gain mods will no longer affect taunt adjustments.
Area of effect spells and combat arts will no longer spread hate to encounter members when damage is applied.

Quote:

Crusader
Idolic Axe has changed to increase the base amount of the crusaders taunts and gives them an additional chance to critically taunt an enemy.

Quote:

Shadowknight
Enchance: Anguish will now increase the base damage of the combat art appropriately.

Quote:

Shadowknight
The Dark Caress and Unholy Weapon lines have merged into the offensive and defensive stances.

Defensive stance line will lower damage but increase threat output.

Offensive stance boosts damage slightly but reduces hate gain.

Sickening Circle will also increase threat now.

The Kick line now has a threat component.

dps when tanking in def stance will be lower
tanking in offstance will probably rock more than it does now

reads like we wont have unholy arms in def stance, that sucks

That's freaking awesome.

I think the developers are starting to finally get the idea. Tanking is gonna be a lot better, DPSing is going to be a lot better. No nerfs...as far as I can tell. New changes are gonna make seting up a crusader gear wise different, wouldn't need all that dps gear to hold hate effectively.

Looking forward to this going live.
