And still there is a problem on gorge 1st boss. D/S Group Exorcism doesnt removing all stuns, just theese which boss called. Others can be removed by regular druid skill (forgot name). Better way is replacing it, that called by boss stun can be removed by druid regular skill, and theese others by group exorcism. Or just fix that all stuns can be removed by GE.

There are effect types in game which you can see in their tooltips if they are defined. Druid/Scout skill Group Exorcism is removing "Harmful Effect" type of effects.

The debuff you have mentioned is in following screenshot;

This is a Curse effect and cannot be cleaned by Group Exorcism skill.

Cleanable debuff by Group Exorcism is a Harmful Effect, in following screenshot;

I am sharing list of English versions of effect types to make it clear to know if a debuff has an effect type, if so, to know which effect type it has.

Hello

Please tell me it's a balance of classes or the murder war/mage and strengthening others? Lowered the attack by 30 % and did not strengthen any skill. No mass damage no passive damage increase. Return the magic attack or give something instead. Make Electrical Rage a passive skill to avoid making a stack every time.
And fix the thorn shield of the druid/guardian .Healers interrupt each other's buffs.

We are aware players are experiencing 20% lower damage on their skills that has no cast time, Warrior/Mage is one of them. It is expecting to be fixed soon.

First of all, please fix RoFl asap, I dont know who messed up here and how those 60% hits could come back into the game, but they make RoFL finally completely undesireable to run. Though if this is intended this time, please say so, so that I dont have to look forward to any fixes!

The issues concerning heals have already been adressed I guess, however I also am wondering how such an obvious mistake could make it into the "final" patch, don't you test your code at all nowadays?!

Now to what I experienced as tank:

Authoritative Deterrence - I dont see why this skill was changed, because it was strong enough as it is and the new effect makes it even stronger overall, resulting in more raid-dmg during bursts.

Holy Protection - I believe the most ineffective change made in this patch (maybe second to Wisdom and Bravery), since it still has no effect on dps-classes, who already are permanently at -90% and for tanks there also is not much effective difference between 452% and 462% aggro...

Knight/Rogue overall: I like the changes made to this class very much to revive it, however I think that alltogether there is too much dmg-reduction + passive heal. Knights already take too low dmg in RoFL, this combo makes heals during bossfights even more obsolete.

And again for Holy Strike in more detail: I see absolutely no reason why this change was made. As I said Knights already could get enough aggro, now this skill is stronger then any other skill for Knight and all you need to do is spam this one skill. You dont even need bufffood or other buffs to get enough aggro to have more than anyone else in any situation, now that champs are "gone".

Up to now Knight were a fun class to play, because of the competition with champions in aggro and that you have to take care what skill to use when, now its just braindead spamming Holy Strike. PLEASE change this back to how it was, it was more than fine.

Overall I like the approach you have and the way skills were changed in their functionality very much, however I hoped champs to have their dmg nerved to the level of other already popular classes and unpopular classes boostet to even those, but you overdid it by far.

Now almost every changed class is stronger than it was before.

With all those additional raidbuffs players overall got such an increase in dmg-output, that instances became even easier than before, regarding dealing dmg.

So maybe at least now you might reconsider balancing lp and def-values for bosses in endcontent, unless you nerv a lot of the buffs you just made to classes with the recent patch, not even regarding broken classes like S/D and M/R...

Considering Mage/Rogue, maybe some players who made first-hand experiences could share constructive feedback here, instead of just complaining about it in global chat.

Cheers!

Edit: Did btw anyone think about what impact many of those new skills will have on PvP...? Some classes will be quite broken in there even with their dmg being fiexed.

Thank you for your feedback, consider this as Beta as main thread mentions please, and about PvP, we will have different balancing for that content later.

Hi all,

1st just a general comment to the devs team - I was surprised how deep the changes were, some classes now really different from how they used to be, which I suppose could be good or bad, depending on your prospective.

2nd it feels like magical dps are now doing exceptionally high dps at least at instances like gorge and below; since rofl mobs were bugged today we could not test it but I feel magic dps will still be very strong and much stronger compared to physical (needs to be confirmed), in particular a couple magic classes seem to do very well, I guess will comment more after testing in few rofl runs once its fixed.

3rd some cuts I personally feel were way over the top, I suspected you will be after champs and w/m, but I think you went over the top for both, ch/r for example went from 50% pa to now 10% pa and 8% pdam with a possibility of adding pa buff from a priest or a dr/w, this is very significant nerf coupled with nerf on pd (cant use sf) coupled with nerf on aoe, all that on a class that was not top dps on bosses (if you exclude trash) in a first place, this is hard for me to take at the moment. I like the idea of forcing champ dps not to use SF and thus be less tankier, I even suggested something similar myself before, but then decrease in pa to that extent don't think was needed. Perhaps with more testing the number may increase from current 10% pa to 20-25%. Please note the 50% less healing is still on on ch/r yet other classes for example ch/w got it removed not sure if this is intentional or not.

4th champ specific and was commented above as well - Shock Overload - I really like the idea of adding this, but when triggers with white hit instead of returning 15 rage it takes it away which makes sustained very hard - please fix it

Overall, I am honestly just overwhelmed at the moment and lost with so many changes, will take a lot of testing for me and trying to see what works now and what does not (which is a good thing I suppose), I just hope champ will still be viable but just different end game and will be solid contributor to raid. There are also good number of champs combos to test + warriors too, so will be busy.

Will post more details once more testing is performed.

Kind regards,

Rakot

Some thoughts on the latest patch regarding heals and wisdom:

Wisdom is now incredibly overpowered on a healer, I'm doing 1.000.000 Recover's unbuffed with what really is mediocre gear, tier 12 gorge healing staff with max tier 9 equipment and 57k wisdom with whatever stats were available to me at the time.

I LOVE the fact that wisdom is included in heal formulas, but these heals make my instance runs BEYOND boring.

Buffing up wisdom gets me to pretty much 4.000.000 Recover on druid and 5.200.000 Group Heal on priest.. I really don't see how this is fun to anyone, healing is not a challenge anymore, the only thing I can do now to still have some fun is run instances unbuffed..

One Mother Earth's Fountain or Group Heal and everyone gains 3 times their maximum HP, and Recover heals twice the tank's HP.

I want to propose to reduce the amount that wisdom buffs burst heals (like the initial heal on Recover or Urgent Heal), and increase how much wisdom affects Heal over Time (like the effect on Recover on druid, or Regenerate on priest).

This would make healing to me a lot more fun!

Side note: This could also mean that people who had not statted wisdom before can still use their gear, because now their gear is beyond useless... I've seen the effects of it.

Heal formula was using wrong modifier and it is changed after patch already, however, we will work on new heal formula even more within this and next week to balance it.

Generally, as this is Beta, you can expect your class be stronger or weaker than current situation.

Hello,

i think the new spell "Shock Overload" is buggy, because every hit with hammer costs 15 rage and dont increase it like the skill says.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.…h/20200619_1592558726.png

[15:06:38] You cast Shock Strike on yourself, restoring 15 Rage points.

Can you explain your issue more detailed?

Quote from Elistios

This upgrade is really good but i'm not sure about the calculation here for HP. From what I understand I should get 26.1k + 5% of my total HP every 5 seconds but I get around 13k-14k instead? Again not complaining here just want to make sure the healing is calculated correctly because right now it seems like the tooltip and the reality are not in sync.

This restoration using general heal formula like all other healing over time effect, so heal amount will be depending on your heal power and wisdom.

Quote from Tygormann

Is there a reason that Kiss of the Vampire has an exhaustion debuff? I could understand it having it before the patch because of the effect Night Refuge had as well as cooldown reducing effect of Pride of the Baron, but now it seems a bit redundant with its 60 second cooldown being longer than the exhaustion and no skills causing it to be available faster than its exhaustion. In my personal opinion, I would put the effect that was previously on Night Refuge, and apply it to Fang Ritual or Shadow Protection. It would probably be too much to have a separate buff for what was previously the effect of Pride of the Baron as you saw the need to change the skill completely with the patch anyways.

It is due to way of intelligence based bleeds working, we can't remove exhaustion at least for now.

Quote from xLutinex

it seems that the new heal formula does not include wisdom in the correct way. According to my observations the healing of skills depends 95-99% on healing bonus of items. wisdom is more ignored than before, even for hots (healing over time)

Also it seems that magical damage does not have any effect on healing skills

Indeed there is something wrong with wisdom calculation, we will be looking for it.

We are aware of following issues which will be fixed as soon as possible.

- Champion/Warlock 70 elite has 10% MP Cost.

- Mage/Rogue skill Shadow Protection is increasing received area damage.

- Mage/Scout passive Strength of Ashes isn't working as intended.

- Warlock/Mage skill effect Soul Seal is disappearing when you take damage.

We are expecting from our community to report us issues and give us feedback for balance of classes about being too powerful or too weak objectively.
