Subject: We're not overhauling the class |
| |
Fellow rogues,
Some of the suggestions I've been reading call for dramatic changes to the rogue class. A common concern is cool downs. Cool downs are 5 minutes for a reason, if we were to replace them with 3 minute cool downs, the ability would have to change as well.
Itemization. Absolutely, we can definitely ask for more, different items, since new items come out with each patch. This has a better chance of being implemented than asking for fundamental changes to rogue abilities, as the class team is overall fairly satisfied with the rogue class.
I don't want to come back with a "working as intended" message, so I encourage rogues to keep this consideration in mind when giving feedback.

Q u o t e:
At least fix Eviscerate. That video wouldn't even exist if Eviscerate scaled by weapon damage instead of being fixed.
If Evis scaled to weapon damage, the complaints about itemization would be even worse than they are now. The video showed that rogues aren't all about the equipment, shortening the gap between the casual player and the hard core player.
Anyway, we asked for this during the last round of feedback and the reply back was no.

Q u o t e:
Rats. :/
They did however, promise to reevaluate top rank (forget the number, is it rank 6?) Evis, as it's damage seems to scale lower at level 60 compared to all the levels up to level 60.
I'll be sure to bring it up again this time as well.

Q u o t e:
if you value videos, you dont deserve your job.
i'm sorry to make such an extreme statement, but anyone with fraps can go out and make a ridiculous video of them owning the world if they have enough time to spend.
its called editting to get what you want, and cutting out what you dont.
In that case, take out the first 4 words: Rogues aren't all about the equipment, shortening the gap between the casual player and the hard core player.

Q u o t e:
I don't know if this is intended, but this translates to "Rogues don't really grow after 60, to close the gap between people who play occasionally and people who play religiously" in my mind..
Reiley, please keep in mind that the devs have promised to reevaluate Evis performance at level 60. So don't give up just yet. :)
