Is healer not the support role?
i was never apart of the group calling to delete aug but at this point if were only ever gonna have a single support spec maybe its time to either delete aug or rework them back into a dps spec and take most of that utility and put it back in the class tree. even if theres no support role you cant have a single support spec in the game with no plans to add more. doing so gets you exactly where we are now with the problems caused and no solution in sight. aug should have been released with 2-3 other support specs so that theres real feedback or not made as a support spec and just a dps spec. this is just poor management at this point. either add more or get rid of the 1 we have
To be honest class tuning mostly only matters for those who participate in high and content, so it should be aimed for them. This whole "it's only 1%" is such a dumb argument.
Mostly here to comment about the Support.Reminding people that, if Blizzard does a comment akin to "we don't have a solid plan..." that pretty much translates to "maybe we'll have a plan in 8-12 months from now"So to Augs? Fresh out of luck in that if you wanted to feel more "Support" like a Captain from LotRO instead of only a damage buffer.The great news? Since this MMO is not top MMO anymore, they can't butcher the definition of "Support" world wide as before like other things. So there's hope if you wish that class fantasy, whether in the future here, or somewhere else.
These guys do look quite hot. Are they lovers?
Delete Aug
Who is that in the thumbnail
Marcellian: "Are you considering revamping Hero Talents in a future patch".Ion: "Unlikely because players are used to playing with them for months and we don't want to change that"That is the most disgusting thing I've ever heard.So first Blizzard rush out the expansion to get it out as soon as possible. Next, the developers LITERALLY admit that they don't have enough time to revamp the hero talents during beta because there isn't enough time. For example, the Hunter dev admitted they cannot revamp the hero talents based on feedback because there isn't enough time.THEN, Blizzard have the audacity to say they won't be getting changed in future patches AFTER already rushing out the expansion and not giving developers enough time to complete the main expansion feature that should have been done for launch.Disappointing doesn't quantify this situation. This is outrageous. Edit:It actually gets worse. Ion later says: "Spend the entire Beta cycle responding and iterating on feedback, but at some point we have to stop and tune, we have to ship the game."I cannot believe he said that. Unbelievable.Does he not realise that some classes like Hunter got ONE form of hero talents. No other changes or iteration from feedback was made at all because the developer said there wasn't time. Now he is saying that at some point they have to ship the game. REALLY? The Hero Talents for some classes was NEVER READY in the first place, and didn't receive any iteration on them at all from feedback and was rushed out the door.This is a really poor response from Ion.
Also, delete aug
Love seeing the interviews! Makes the information feel more real than when we just get a blue post. Keep em coming Gamescom!
hero talents were a mistakethe dev team already can't give a &*!@ about half the spec in the game, now you also get to watch them not give a #$%^ about half the hero talent trees
