Tarm:

I was making 10k/hour on my Thane starting from RR1 with no exploits. Ranged damage helps but I call BS on the 1k/hour.

I can make 5k/hour on a bad night on my rr3/ml4/cl4 Savage.



You do this while solo? If you're surfing the zerg sure you can get that but going out solo? There is no fucking way you can consistently make 5k/hour on a class without speed or stealth.

Since we're talking about wall exploits the assumption is that this is in the Lab.

And yes, I've made over 15k/hour on good nights.

Excellent patch notes.

- Slam change is years overdue.

- Wall exploit long overdue also. (They should make it so that you die and are ported to your capital city as well).

- Nice to see some benefit of dual wielding again.


Only thing left, fix evade to work against arrows again.



That would be sweet! Not so sure archers would like it, but my zerker sure would(if i played).

Fail to see what they keep the slam duration on the heavy tanks and not do it the other way round, ie give the hybrids the full duration slam but cut the heavy's one down to 5s.. makes the hybrids have a purpose in a full group and let's face it.. it's the heavies that diss out the most DPS during that slam duration.



Guess you haven't ever fought a Reaver who slams you then just lifetaps the health right back with that wicked DD. You act like Hybrids don't have anything other than weapon/shield.

so i guess im going to modify my reaver spec again

41 soul 44 flex 35? shield rest parry how much would that leave? im on a profanity netbook without charplanner!



Honestly having only 5 secs, actually roughly 4 by the time you even get to the side I wouldn't bother with the 44 style anymore.

Otherwise you have to spec 50 in shield and that will gimp the piss out of SR.



or i go 35 like i said, get high parry and land the side stun which is 8 secs and more than enough for 3 cobra chains will celerity...

No, it's not.

Shield stun - 0 sec
Taipan 1 - 1.5 sec
Cobra 1 - 3.0 sec
Taipan 2 - 4.5 sec
Cobra 2 - 6.0 sec
Taipan 3 - 7.5 sec
Cobra 3 - 9.0 sec

With Slam you can get in 3, with side stun, you can't.

The taipan should land before the stun wears off, so cobra will fire.

Just don't go to labby or an agramon bridge and you'll never see a reaver.. it's a 1 trick 1v1 pony..

You didn't see reavers in a normal group before this patch, and the patch surely hasn't done anything to make them more group oriented.. before the patch, groupability armsman >>> reaver... after patch armsman >>>>> reaver.
