<DIV>Well I managed to spend a few hours with the combat changes and overall I think we (By which I mean me) came out of it pretty ok. I lost 200 hps and 300 power somewhere along the way (probley trait choices) but my effectiveness is intact. So let me get this out of the way.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=5>I was wrong</FONT>.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Now that being said I'd like to run down some observations.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Dueling: I #$(*ING LOVE DUELING. LOVE IT. Best thing to add. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Fear: I like the fact its been given its own line seperate from the Taunts.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Brokers: Brokers are #$(*ing useless to me until I figure out how to filter them right. I used to be able to just put in Green/Orange and BAMM get what I want. Now.....Now I have to figure out how to tell it what I want or go slot by slot. thats kinda sort of annoying but Ill adapt when I spend some time with it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Most of the rest I still have to evaluate effectively. My rythem when fighting is a little screwy, especially with the change in casting times. Its gonna take some adapting. No longer able to run Call to Arms, intimidating orders, Rousing Cry simultaniously. Im still figuring some things out like the stances, once I get them sorted right I should be able to come up with a good configuation. I was able to take out a level 44 Green ^^^ with a 47 warlock (who spent half the fight saying it couldnt be done). </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Overall Im content with this Update and I will probley keep playing. Im gonna wait till after patching tommorow to DL the update and re-subscribe. Give them one last chance to #$(* me over (Yeah, I know they'll wait 2 weeks till everyone gets aboard the Expansion Train 'WOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO' before they change things)</DIV>
