Um k let's fail

[Moonbolt]

I won't jump to any conclusions just yet I am sure the guys and gals at FC have something planned to help with this... the problem currently at TL7 is when a enfo whats to get away there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop them. Something had to be done about that and the other issue was with procs and buffs all stacked up at 218 I had over 5k runspeed on my enfo there is something seriously wrong when "the fastest profession in the game" fixer is not even close to that in reality.

ummm are u unaware of that everyone ingame has the ability to get capped runspeed now?
theres a hughe problem atm with kiting and if rage gets RS nerf its just goin to get worse..... its a sad day.

Balance is not only about improving, but also - nerfing. Enfs are #1 in the "to nerf" list, on all level ranges.

Windoze calculator is speaking nonsense:
-One profession speadsheet per week result in 14 weeks for a complete list.
-Equals 3 months something just for the sake of...feedback.
-SoonTM = November??
-Nerf Backyard Leets!

Well said. Its just hard to take candy from kids

Considering a osb trader will beat an osb enf at all twink lvl ranges. Trader deserves to be deleted then

Argument invalid. Depends entirely on the situation and players.

[Taranide]

How many of you even have a twink that's worth 1 billion +? Most good enf twinks cost around 2 billion to 3 billion creds.

That goes for any profession that's willing to use CC/CM/CS/CSS.

Saying something this dumb highlights how worthless the professional program is.

Balancing goal is making all profs perform more or less equal.
There are some profs that are way better than other right now (advies on tl5+, enfs on all levels) - to be on par with others they need toning down. It's as simple as that.

Agreed.

True, advys are high too but not on all levels like enforcers.

Fastest/speed is a number that does not know about an artificial cap that was put in place by FC coders... so he who has the highest runspeed is the fastest even though we all run at the same relative speed.

Kiting is something that needs fixed and runspeed is not the way to do it.

The most important balance issue imo is specials and their balance

fling = fast attack which is perfect

burst = brawl which is not quite right as brawl dmg changes too much based on profession and brawl skill

AS = SA not quite equal when you consider the recharges on the specials

FA = dimach this is somewhat a toss up but dimach recharge or FA recharge needs to be addressed

So basically what I am saying is that once kiting is balance specials will still be unbalanced in favor of ranged users.

tbh you shouldn't expect to be able to catch everyone and I would imagine the fix for kiting with be something that can only be used once per fight with a mediocre duration which is perfect and requires timing and skill to use.

Don't forget they're redoing procs and research too. Gotta add a month or two for that. Then there's the general perks. That's another month. Then 1 month to get the stuff finished and moved to test. Then a couple of months of testing, feedback and changes.

This is how Ive always seen it, more or less equal in general terms, just different ways of reaching the same level of equality.

[bitnykk]

people should wait to see how the RS curve will change first (more RS for lowbie and less for endgames), and consider HP buffs have no more RS debuff before start flaming

[Gatester]

Removing the NR buff + run speed would fix the enforcer profession.

I cannot wait for low runspeed enforcers to warp on top of your CC prof and smash its face in.

220 2hb enforcers are so overpowered, they indeed need massive nerfs to stop their killing sprees.

220 1hb/1he enforcers do need nerfing though.

[Saetos]

So why not take some of their damage away (Sneak) and allow them to use better short-range CC tools and defenses, so that they can be a true dominating tank without also being able to eviscerate people with the TAB key?

I may be in the minority that thinks that the snare on the 1hb perks are a cool idea. Toolsets like that being expanded would be great, but atm they have a tremendous amount of offense.
