I don't play Destro but I don't really want them nerfing classes already, it's still too early. Yes this is annoying but there's ways to combat it.

As I said when Age of Conan started pissing about with classes - get the bugs fixed, the promised content released (bug free) THEN start messing about with class balance once you've got a solid subs base.

Erm, this isn't a nerf it's a fix lol. Magnet doesn't pull unlimited neither should rift. It still pulls a large amount of people... but finally it won't crash comps by pulling 100 people into one tiny space. Thank you for this fix.

Aye, I agree, its not really a nerf, but a needed fix. That said, I'd like them to address the Magus's generally sub-par DPS.

Nah both should pull 12 now. Needed fix imo but won't change much for most people, it's not often they are able to pull more than 12, so chances are the whines will continue.

Why do I detect sarcasm even though this was one of the most game-breaking bugs in the game?

what's so hard about having your Renown Rank just as high as your level?

why am i not suprised by that

try looking at your own class sometime

then try again

:)

Bright Wizards are overpowered (amongst certain other classes/specific abilities) but they're not game breaking, Chaotic Rift utterly destroyed any zerg even with minimal organisation from Destruction's part and there is/was absolutley no way to counter it. Besides, this is a hotfix for something that wasn't intended, not a nerf, so I don't see your problem.

but they're not game breaking

says you, i would beg to differ, not least because it seems to have atracted all the "reroll fotm to win" fuckwits, so you cant move for BWs

and cylian, if that was directed at me, i was pointing to the fact he plays a BW, not that he had lvl/rr the same

I say they're not game breaking because they can be countered. Before the hotfix, Rift could NOT be countered. Sure, BW's bring a lot of destruction to a fight - and there's no penalty to bringing addtional BW's, they synergize so well the more the better, however most of (and you can disagree all you like) the people that play Bright Wizards are totally incompetant at playing their class and can be quite easily dealt with, because, as you say, people are rolling them as they are overpowered.

Would you have agreed that Chaotic Rift was gamebreaking if my signature told you I was playing a Squig Herder or a Shadow Warrior?
