Player Character Balance

[D-molisher]

So in other words, people fear fixes. (Not new to the game). Now I see a lot of defensive stands here. Some people thinking mhm mhm if they nerf my shiradi spam machine what sort of sorcerer will I be able to play end game? mhmm if they nerf kiting how on earth will I be able to take +300HP per hit from those HP bags? And then getting very aggressive at anything that touches that.

It appears to me that there is a lot of private calculation and a complete lack of trust that the development team will implement comprehensive changes, rather than just smacking this one thing you are using and leaving the rest ready to eat you on the way down.

To a certain extend, experience and the fact that they tend to ask for very narrow suggestions at a time seems to indicate it, but I don't think that long term it does any favor to the goal of having a better game.

You are talking about Turbine (TM)
There have been enormous nerfs all the years i have been here, so i see a valid reason for most peoples doubts -> including mine.

Like the bard nerf that made amrath bard proof, havent bothered doing amrath since -> exept a few times when friends / guild ask for hlp flagging for TOD.
But with new items ( raid loot inbalance ) noone cares for TOD anyway.

P.S:
Probably why i didnt bother with the stupid survey, that doesnt add enuff choice / questions.
