    well I think is going to even the odds against affliction classes.. when an affliction class is clearly having an advantage over a prep class, what do you do? fly/shield/run amok, etc until you reset their momentum, and what used to happen to said knight? nothing, he goes back and keeps prepping, "oh snap, affliction class is ahead of me again" /repeat until you can do your vivi/damn/dsb. 

    Imo is a great solution to balance the fights, if the knight keeps running to avoid the affliction momentum, is only fair that he has a small risk to lose his prep too, i see it as a balanced way to punish a knight that repeatedly runs to avoid stacks without losing anything while doing so (ie. affliction vs affliction ALWAYS lose their momentum when they decide they need to run and heal). 3 minutes seems fair as long as you switch limbs repeatedly of course, you will have issues prepping someone only if you do 3 dsl then blackwind/illuminate/raido out over and over, and I think that's the idea.

    With my 252's I just kept spamming epseth/epteth single arm breaks. Mend leg, mend arm, resto arm usually. Epseth/epteth again, dsl parried leg with epseth/epseth until they parry. Get about 2 shots at it before they parry. If Nairat fires then you get infinity.

    Then reprep arm at warp speed with hindering venoms and repeat.

    Unnecessary change, 3 minutes isn't much time.

    Also need to address hiding behind lyre/barrier to wait for limbs to reset.  Time spent behind one should pause the limb reset timer.

    I'm mad because now I don't have enough time to make a sandwich behind lyre while my limbs reset.

  • SantarSantar
    Gotta up your game. I'm pretty sure I could make a sandwich in under 3 mins.

    And, knight parry changes are in the works btw.

    Pretty sure it's not going to end up being some easy mode bypass, but some pretty good solutions for handling parry via affliction stacking have been proposed. I expect you'll see them when Knight classes are released.

    I had 253/249 (dsling at 1.575 with server queing) with freezing and still had a hard time bypassing parry. (To be fair though disembowel is so useless why even bother trying to get around parry)

    Edit: Also the curare/Kalmia/gecko thing doesn't work that well on fitness users.

    Should give every class a way to bypass lyre at least in melee. having a shield that some classes can't even touch is .. retarded

    Lyre's a tricky thing to balance. If people can get through it, what's the point of it?

    If people can't get through it, it's stupidly overpowered.

    Most classes have a way or two to ineffectively strike through lyre, which is probably about as good as you can get balance wise.

    Interesting. People seem to be reacting rationally to the Earring change. I read the announce before coming to forums and I was expecting to find more like..

     
    The biggest reason for earring rants were A-team earring train raids, so its a welcoming change to most. In return, the team wants to prove they can still wreck people the same after the nerf.

    = no one complains (at least not for now)

    Lyre already requires balance and eq, and takes eq to put up. Whilst inside it, there are very few things the user can do without it dropping again - no sipping, curing, etc. It is taken down by the user emoting(!) and other physical and mental actions (not talking / clans / etc), requiring balance to put back up. Don't forget, it's pretty much exactly the same as Metamorphosis Nightingale melody and grove barrier, so changes to the lyre will likely also affect those.

    I traded in my lyre for all the reasons @Klendathu just mentioned. I don't see how its worth anything unless you have passive curing (Magi, Priest, Bard) and lots of health regen. You pretty much have to disable your system once you put it up.

    @Mishgul's method probably works too.

    Fuck yes.

    * Active curing abilities now have a small cooldown before they can be used again. The length of the cooldown varies depending on the efficacy of the ability

    Personally, happy with the two minor buffs to voicecraft :smile:

    aw, I forgot to classlead my suggestion to make Cataclysm follow restrictions similar to for example Thurisaz, 3 rooms or LoS but still not indoors.
    Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!"
    Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh."
    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

    Bard is back to being a dragon clone :( Dragon even limb preps faster.

    Unsure if the numbers change depending on current health, or if the correlation between the shindo used and the health given are going to stay the same regardless. Need to do more testing, but this is a good change that I like. Now to get shin from denizens :D
