Watching the GU63 testing feedback

[Giallolas]

<p>The lack of anyone reporting on the playtest for the new Templar Prestige Points says it all...</p><p>Every other priest class is excitedly posting their news.</p><p>I think we must be getting forgotten again...and again...</p><p>Sorry to be a downer, but it's starting to eat at me.  I'm almost afraid of playtesting our Prestige Class Abilities as I'm afraid of what I'm going to see.</p>

<p>That is because people are giving feedback where the devs asked for it</p><p><a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/forums/show.m?forum_id=2844">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...m?forum_id=2844</a></p>

<p>Well we have been providing so much feedback some on prestige abilities and some on the class issues enough for Xelgad to request we stay on track which lasted maybe 30 secs.  I noticed that currently both wardens and defilers I believe have gotten a response to their concerns with changes they requested to the prestige abilities and some class tweaks...templar thread response so far to date...1 request to stay on topic...lol</p><p>Please take care to note just how much feedback we gave when requested...our thread is the largest and is nearing the combined thread responses for all of the other healers combined lol</p>

But yeah, the Temp thread on testing feedback is by far the largest feedback thread of any of the classes giving feedback. Wonder if anything will change.</p>

<p>I really hope some of the issues that vex our class get addressed as well.  I'm a very positive, glass half full kind of fellow.  Yet after watching our class and their relationship to this game since 2006, I'm getting a little jaded.  I fully expect that the only adjustment we'll see is a nerf to our Repent lines so it only works on arcane damage or something silly like that.  After seeing them metagame around our Unyielding Benediction and Sanctuary without anything in return, I'm fairly nervous about any other IMPROVEMENTS that we'll see.</p>

<p>TBH I'm close to hanging up the hammer after 7 years....I'll wait and see what we get on live but I'm not very hopeful as the devs have been consistently overwhelmingly silent for over a year now but have responded at times to other classes issues....</p>

I will never betray my templar, but it really gives you a lot of insight when all inquisitors can talk about is how to increase their dps more, not how to heal better to keep their group alive. The imbalance between templars and inquisitors can only be understood by actually playing both classes. It is really sad, because I think I'll always love my first class and wish templars were not broken right now.</p>
