Why are beastlords so OP right now?

    Other than the prestige abilities the beatlord is just better than any class by about 2-3x. the primals just hit hard even when the player has lower potency than mobs mitigations. Are they bypassing mitigations as well? I'm generally curious.

    It's not beastlords, its all scouts. Assassins and Rangers are performing just as good.
    I do hope they buff mages though - really in a tough spot, even after the combat mit buffs.

    Maybe your BL is a beast and your other dps need to up their game?

    When you look at tank, healer and support dps and then predator/rogue/BL dps. It looks like they're getting the balance better in that regard. Sorc/Sum need fixing to perform similarly to predator/rogue and then dps will be looking functional.

    Then there's just the job of tweaking each classes utility to make all that make sense again and hey, we might have a game which nearly works.

    haha its blightshadow and the primals that are at "ancient" ability but no, BL's overall are just higher. I will up my game though =)

    i'd rather them buff mages, then look at outliers after the fact. I think the difference between assassin/ranger/beastlord, all things equal is less than 15%. mages are decidedly about 1/5th of a scout at the moment.

    From my personal experience over the years, the primals never really scale very well with potency. I think what we will see if a strong class now, as as other catch up it will balance out. I've always been super strong at the beginning of expansion packs and gotten progressively weaker as the expansion goes along.

    What is Blight Shadow?

    I believe Blightshadow is one one of the new Prestige AAs. Similar "Spiral of Shadows" or "Danse Macabre" on differing scout classes.
