^ This is what it was like on live, so haters quit crying~

only on charmed pets, normal pets the owner just had to do 1dmg. and with having them do 1 dmg it eliminates afk camping. if someone is going to sit and hit a low level mob ever minute for 1 damage they can do so. but leveling is going to be slow as fuck since they can't actually be afk

Everything aside, this looks like the best patch I've seen since I've joined.

A lot of good fixes.

As far as the damage shield duration goes, you need an updated spells_us.txt. The new file isn't posted yet for download, but we will get that straightened out. I forgot to let Rogean know, that it needed to be released for the fixes to the DS to work. We will get it out to you guys soon.

Good eyes, i must have overlooked it.

The patch is half decent. I know everyone will be happy once an updated spells txt file comes out for the DS durations, etc. I have always hated that thus far. I hope the 1pt damage will be discussed and become the chosen path for next patch, really not fair to all of the mage classes who don't abuse the system.

[Ghesta]

I say extend the duration to double duration as a way to appologize to the DS using community. ;D

[Stonewall]

This patch sucks for rogues too. Side stepping for a free backstab is now a lot harder [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It was way too easy to do in the first place. It's still possible with good timing.

[ENUS]

The pet nerf is really dumb; you could make it a number that is much more reasonable such as 20-25%, since most of the pet classes can then just nuke once for 200+ damage proving that they are at least doing something. 50% is pure crap for any pet class that is leveling up and wishes to solo. Guess we should all make melee classes....... OR DRUIDS!!!!
