BTW, mages get close to or the most DA items in the game. I'm sure ST will welcome you to do DA train aways for all of Velious if you want usefulness.

Edit: if the devs did it on their own initiative, that's not what would bother me. It's the prospect of back channel balance advocacy.
You do raise a good point, I do think anything that is changed through the staff's own initiative could do with a bug thread just for clarity, transparency and the benefit of a few hundred extra eyes checking any changes before they happen.

This seems like something that should have been better described in the patch notes.

Max hit of 2 less, like he was saying 56 max hit vs. 58.

57 Max earth pet used to hit for 70. People are saying it hits for 60 now. Haven't confirmed.

Confirmed. Looks like max earth now hits for 58 instead of 70.

It should hit for 60 and for 62 with focus staff based on the sources I have. If there's been an error in the DB it will be fixed by devs I imagine.

Hitting for 70 was not classic though. I can't see that coming back.

I think adjusting the min hit / db may have caused this if the random damage element / di wasn’t altered to offset that change.

Wait are mage pets actually lower dps than necro pets now? There’s no way that’s classic if so
