What were these mobs at potency wise before, second whats their base melee multiplier? 1.0? 2.0? 3.0?
Any one find it funny that they done this patch a week after the Great tank nerfing so we are meat to try and kill raid mobs as they where.why not do both together why wait. We are going to need another month of rok or most guild will be getting there weapons next xpack at this rate. Do we have a date for the next patch to fix the first patch. This has left me wondering if the first patch was worth it in the first place and that if they get the next patch right.
Should just make everything a cake walk so every player gets a mythical. Or just make it available at marketplace.
No not really, raids should not have lost that much dps. It was killed Tuesday night with a raid wide dps significantly lower than what was required previously.
Well La Tee F'ing Da!!! Good for you guys but wtf does this have to do with the fact the TANK's have no gear to look forward to getting? Itemization is horrible. Fix that S***!
Dreamy, thanks for the update. Can you verify that even if this fix works and tanks will have less issues with raiding, that they are still going to go back and change the absolute Guardian/Warrior gear back to Defensive stats with health and or mit? Right now, NONE of the crafted gear for Warriors is available with any defensive stats, but one. All spell skills and only 2 options for offensive/spell. This is for all the faction gear. Plus, my favorite, Shackles of the Court needs to go back Defensive as well. While I appreciate the changes to raid zones, it was the lack of availability on gear choices that still stings. I would hate to have the raid mobs debuffed be the end of it.
https://imgur.com/gallery/ocIfkvW ^ 5 pieces of Eternal Sentinel GUARDIAN ONLY fabled raid armor from EoF raids. .. offensive / spell skills? No mit, no hp, no defensive skills?? These were ALL Mitigation, HP and Defensive skills for the most part. Sure, nerf some of it if you need to but these are ridiculous.
I don't have a tank, but I am a healer , and I have noticed how hard it is to keep our tanks up . We had to break of raid 2 days ago because we could not keep our tanks up with 3 healers each
You have to give tanks gear upgrades so we have a reason to log in and play. This has absolutely nothing to do with mob damage output, this is just basic game design. Seriously team, VOES Maidens Chardok Chelsith CoA all pointless to tank those zones. Once upon a time these zones had highly desirable items, worn in synergy with T1 and 2 raid gear. Might as well be tanking blackburrow now it's all vendor trash.
I wonder what they mean by "tank gear" seeing as how gear is only tank gear if it has tank stats. Unless they have some backend "preferred role" indicator tied to equipment. Glad to hear they are going to update some gear for tanks anyway.
I agree tank gear could use another once over. But your statement just isn't true. Yes good tank gear is much more scarce, but it is out there, and there is tank gear progression in raids.
