Trap/spell dmg

[Wutinni]

I've been playing the game for over 6 years now, and although some of the changes in the last update are ok, the vast majority are not.

Trap Damage - Way too scaled up. The incentive to disarm them is still there with xp boosts, but making any trap on elite deadly to non-evasion characters is either a ploy to make rogues feel useful or sell more artificers on the store. Whatever the reason for the change, its lame.

Mob Casters - Just silly now on low level quests where many characters wouldn't have access to the right protections. At high level I would see some use to this change, but not on lev 2 quests on elite.

Perhaps instead of making changes to things which have supported the game for half a decade, you could focus attention on things like the disconnect errors many players experience zoning into orchard/desert.

I've only read the first 3 pages of this thread, but in case it hasn't already been said, this is NOT working as intended.

As many of you have said in the first 3 pages, the traps are not in line with the rest of the dungeon. This is a bug and is getting attention here at Turbine.

No dev remarks in that thread, despite trying to get their attention.
