Repeater Reload Speed greatly reduced

[Mryal]

We are aware of this issue, and are actively investigating it. I will provide more information as soon as I have something further to pass along. Thanks to everyone for reporting this.

Yea of course you are I see what you did there.

As many times before, the 'fix' to ranged +tohit involved re-using old code, back from where ranged +to-hit worked.

As a result of that, the reload speed was reverted to the old reload speed, back before arti's were released, wich was a tad slower.This type of 'fix' has happened before.

HUGE thank you for keeping at this and bringing it to the attention of the Dev team. +1

It's in my own best interest - if I lose any more guildies to bugs I'm gonna freak right out, and solve the whole thing with nuclear fire.

But thanks! Here's hoping we get a full answer soon!

If only it was reverted back to the older reload speed. No, this is unfortunately much slower than the reload speed has ever been.

rapid reload is autogranted at lvl 1....and this is on Lam currently, not live.

no worries.

If it goes live we'll be exchanging the current lack of proficiency bug for slow shooting. If this new bug doesn't go live your wife will be hitting more often.

We've tracked down and fixed the reload issue internally.

Much obliged. Should we expect that for next patch, or 14.3? (Assuming there'll continue to be micro-patches for a bit, since the list is likely long.)

Thanks for the update. I'm assuming that the issue won't make it to live via patch 2, but confirmation is always appreciated.

That is good. Any chance at getting Patch 2 delayed till that makes it in? Seriously, with the constant mess ups to combat, it really will be very ill perceived to have another one get shipped out.

Glad to hear it.

Is it in the patch or not? Seriously, why did you waste the time to say you found and fixed it (which you obviously were capable of, you built the game, that wasn't the question) since the question is when will you fix it so it does not ruin our gaming we (sometimes) pay for?

Woot! Now for that question... Will it be in patch 2? Pleeeeease?

Thank you for not scaring away more of our players

And thanks for the info!

Nerfs and bugs, man. Nerfs and bugs...

Healing is more frustrating than ever, my wizard was doing too good so you nerfed her, broken Assassinate makes soloing on a rogue even more frustrating, playing my WF fighter went from sub-optimal to humiliating to have in a group... I just rolled up a repeater bard and this happens? What is there left that isn't broken now?

How was wizard nerfed? Did they nerf Evocation Archmages, or are you talking about the nerf to Wail of the Banshee?

Just to let you guys know in this thread, devs stated that they are pushing back the patch to thursday to add in the xbow fix.

For those keeping track, we're shifting the release date of Update 14 Patch 2 by a day (to Thursday) to get this fixed before folks' repeater-using Artificers decide to....concentrate....very...hard.....on...reloadin g....their....weapons on the live servers.

Darnit, Jerry... you are lagging again. Fix your server.

A big thank you to the dev team for acknowledging, investigating, and fixing this before it went live. Thank you for not making the one character I chose to focus on for the expansion unplayable.
