Beo, so you area a tank mage that has tactics? or are you going to just not use the weapon specials?

* Players will no longer be able to access the house sign from anywhere else but underneath or beside it.

They have a fix for that tonight, everyone was complaining so they stayed late to correct it.

Next server up that bug should be fixed.

Beo's made some minor adjustments Dorieann. The whole "Tank Mage" scene isn't what it's hyped up to be anymore. Even with my 40 hit harm fork, I could do 10 damage with fork, 11 with harm..but it's just not worth it. Some may like it, but I just don't see it justifing myself. Not being able to use a special while casting a spell, has a put a damper on mage vs warrior. Now if your getting dp spammed, you either arch cure - heal...or you try to disarm. Now if a 4/6 chiv, healing/anat warrior is just eatting your spells up, you have to stop casting completely just to try and bleed.

It put's a huge damper on the situation for mages vs warriors. In my opinion the new templates will be:

Swords, Tactics, Chivlary, Resist, Poison, Med, Parry. (Need med to have mana regen even work now. Mortal/Dp/Bleed will be unstoppable. Only Chiv for remove curse is realiable against necros.)

Necro/mage (With either scribe, weaving, or wrestling. Due to the apple situation mage vs mage..a necro mage just has to cast strangle twice in order to have the upper hand for the fight.)

Archer, Necros (For pvp, mages cant remove curse anymore..so necros just have to spam strangle/mortal ftw!)

Thanks to the super changes, warriors have once again been pushed forward and mages pulled backwards. Now mages get to stand there and get dped/bleed/mortal spammed..and have a choice: Heal, Run, Try to use spec, annnd Die. With Death Strike nerfed, you cant just DS the warrior while hes chasing you. With Nerve strike gone (I like this one however..) and everything else..you have no choice but to just stand there and take it as a mage.

It's given the upper hand back to dexxers which is fair enough, but of course Chiv is the only fair way to go, and mages are just down right ruuuiined.

I say with all the crap EA did to pvp, they should at least give us all (+100) to our skill caps. Especially since this tactic requirment ruins alot of warrior templates.
