    this came from the notes on update 39 on test server they havent released what powers have changed yet

    Fire Improvements!

    With Game Update 39, we have made improvements to Fire. Fire now has new damage mechanic improvements that now ensures Fire has the same damage potential as Weapon Mastery, combo powers (Light/Celestial/Rage), DoT Powers (Nature/Electricity) and Pet powers (Sorcery/Earth).

    Fire users can now use a number of new mechanics centered around "Channels and Casts" to cause superior damage output. Specific changes are outlined in the notes below.

    Whats the point of this thread?. You just copied and pasted what the Devs have posted.

    That can't be the only changed they have done...no WIP thread ?

    Probably because we can't discuss it in the notes and not all of us are PC players to test it out.

    You can now move while using a cast power like Mass Det.

    That's great... I guess.
  18. Korlick Loyal Player

    Well...
    Its the most healer dependant tank.
    Its the most block dependant tank.
    At the begining of a new tier is the most weakest.
    Self Healings are a joke.
    Self healings had been broken since the first fire revamp.

    We have an amazing Fire DPS in our league who already obliterates content. I worry just how powerful he will become with these changes!
