Its completly worthless and broken now, Basicly the only thing swashbuckler had to keep it up with the rest. Swashbucklers have asked for changes for a long time and now this. No more utilitys and aoes, fix it to what it was, a high single target ca.
It's broken, it'll be fixed. Just chill. It is intended to be a reduction to single target damage on that ability though.
Please undo this change. Dagger storm was making fightingvsingle mobs tolerable, much less doing the solo instances against the boss mobs. I never really understand nerfs to classes that so desperately need help as does my Swashbuckler.
It's useless now, and on top of that it's doing heat damage even though I'm on etherealist. Hope they at least fix that soon.
Why not give now option for summoners to have 2 pets at once and Bls and Predators no cast and reuse timers...
Daggerstorm nerfed into insignificance. Well done DB. Now the Swashbuckler is totally useless. Many thanks for nothing. Well done *clap* Why not delete Swashies from the game as a whole? I better stop posting here before writing things i would regret later on......
bards are also becoming useless buff bots now....i think scouts in general minus maybe assassins and rangers are completely useless.....class balancing is a serious joke when they take abilities from classes that are insignificant and make them even worse....makes me regret even returning to this game and spending money on the collectors edition to do so....pathetic
/agree, daggerstorm was the only reason Swashy's even showed up on the dps chart on boss fights. Basicly Swash's are a seriously underpowered class and the ONLY reason they did not feel like a pile of steaming bantha dung was Daggerstorm.
They made some change to Unda Arcanus Spiritus similar to dagger storm, I wonder if its as messed up?
But hey, they fixed the swashbuckler's Double-Cross today! Swash lives stopped mattering many expansions ago, and now we're being gimped even more. /rude DBG
This needs to go back to having the 35m range on it, too. Not all of the scout classes have a lot of ranged DPS. /sigh
Well RIPerroni Scouts... Literally the day after I remark about how I liked that EQ2's Bards weren't useless buff-bots...
At least bards still have some buffs ... swashies now also do no more dmg (every single target CA might as well be erased from the game) and contribute even less to the groups benefit than before PoP since they no longer provide the 15res buff which was superior compared to most other classes. To me it was tough to justify playing a swash even before the dagger storm change ... this doesnt exactly make it any easier
Like I have said before Swashies are some sort running joke with no effort or feedback from multitudes of suggestions to improve, broken Daggerstorm effects non T1 scouts harshly and needs to be fixed asap,
This is definitely in the "to be determined" category yet. Since, as it is right now, Daggerstorm is literally doing zero and may stay that way for several weeks. Also, since Unda doesn't properly display on the tooltip due to the range modification it has, we really won't know until DS is functional again and the two can be directly compared. My guess right now based upon descriptions is that DS will be stronger AE and Unda will be stronger single (at max range).
