    Devs, did you intend to so severely nerf our range damage? Or is this an unintended bug that we may expect to be fixed?

    I am sure once they see the results, in a few weeks they will make adjustments. Be a decent doctor and have some patients... *giggles*

    The PvP nerf was impressive to say the least. Having a bow's damage rating drop from 84 to 8.4. I wonder if the last person on Deathtoll will remember to turn off the lights ...

    It was indeed an impressive nerf. The myth wand from umbrite keys has gone from a rating of ~286 down to 161. It's below even fabled heroic weapons. I'm starting to think that my friends who left last month had the right idea. Or, maybe it's just time to go ftp and relax with some decorating.

    You know, if many of the raiders quit, but enough people still want to raid, you will have to learn tactics and working as a team instead of relying on the extra firepower that All access gives you, that and the Allaccess members you have that are still wanting to raid.

    Yes, I want to raid. But for fun, not as a job. So ill do it with my RP guild one day, and have fun, rather than a job where I have to be on 2 of the 3 raid nights each week or lose my raiding spot to another. Been there, done that... threw away the tshirt long ago.

    Ranged weapons are using the incorrect formula for calculating DPS currently, they are calculating themselves as dual wield weapons instead. The bug should be fixed in the next hotfix.

    All the rangers quit at KoS launch because their auto-attacks were hitting for 100. Noone left to quit over this.

    When is the next hotfix? Today? Was it intentional to have this effect the normal servers too? As of right now, my Ranger has half the damage rating on his bow as he used to on the normal servers.

    Haven't tested this dps drop, but I expect it's significant. Some might say game breaking.

    Hopefully at least thursday, I wouldnt be surprised if melee'ing does more DPS now, and that would be extremely bad DPS.

    Because if the rest of them are changed like this, it's going to be really awesome? :/

    So what are the Thursday patches called? They aren't crazy rare and I would say this easily could justify one.

    Yes, thanks for the quick "oops, I messed up again because I didn't have eyes put on what changed." Now wait a week for the fix.

    Actually kinda surprised, my dps hasn't suffered too much. I am noticing that the damage rating keeps changing mid fight from current rating to original and back again..........

    Oh, dear. Does that mean you indirectly found a different bug too?
