No, we've always had most of these issues as "features" except when they were broken for a short time (pet buff drain). These changes are balance changes for the better.
what about the changes we are asking for, they can do, they do for conjurors but not for us ? live update 6: Conjurer changes - Geotic Brand's armor and health buffs will now update immediately rather than after the caster zones. Aspect of the Undead anyone ? Since the patch that increased duration of short buffs, conjurors equivalent of grisly brace/stele last 15mins, while ours still last 3mins. Looks like devs love conjurors more than necro.
Yes, look through the dev tracker for Moogards post regarding the priest balancing and summoner DPS boost. Specifically here: http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=spellart&message.id=39033#M39033 Message Edited by Handlebars on 04-04-2005 01:37 PM
Actually...he said that there will be Con/Necro *Pet* DPS improvements. Which does mean more DPS for us, but they might not be buffing up any of our other spells...just pets. No real details have been listed, so i suppose it could still go either way.
Actually it says nothing of the sort and leaves no room for your interpretation. The sentance reads "Conjurer/Necromancer pet/DPS improvements " which interprets as: Conjurer DPS improvements Conjurer pet improvements Necromancer DPS improvements Necromancer pet improvements The "/" is for word replacement. So if you read Conjurer/Necro as "Conjurer and Necro" the you must read pet/DPS as "Pet and DPS." It is semantics yes. But I can't see how you can edit "Conjurer/Necromancer pet/DPS improvements" to read "Con/Necro *Pet* DPS"
Heh! I guess we could just take that statement to mean "conjurer's pets' DPS is getting an improvement"
