Battletide does not function like haste?

[izzul]

i was playing another server before. i am pretty sure after i cast battletide, the number of attack increased by one.

for and example.original attack is 2 per round. then i cast battletide, it became 3 per round.

the effect of more attack per round is almost same as haste.

here, i cast battletide and the number of attack stays the same which is 2 per round

and when a wizard or a warlock in my party cast haste, it increases to 3 attack per round?

is there a bugg or something about it?

Battletide was changed some time ago; I'll have to do some searching to find the exact particulars.

Speaking generally, the "divine tank" issue was becoming a serious problem, and Battletide was one component of that. (Though I don't personally feel it was the most significant).

As things stand now, Battletide will not add any attacks to the caster.

is there any plan to fix it?

because it looks like now the spell only add +1 to attack roll, skills,and saves. not much specialities for a lvl 5 spell.

nevertheless, thank you for answering i such a short notice.

It's been poked a few times, but it's not high on my list of things to come back to. I know that sucks, but I'd rather be honest about it - we've got a lot of things that need fixing. For the time being, you'll find Divine Power and Divine Favor are still their usual overwhelmingly-awesome selves.

The only case where I'd really consider making Battletide operate like it used to is if we changed how Divine Power works.

that pretty much answers it. get another warlock that can cast haste each 10 seconds or a wizard with haste should cover the extra attack.

also it helps into more RP and more team mate in a party.

well, i think its better to keep it the battletide that way if its not in the main list of fixing. dont bother fixing it, so that people will go into RP and depending on their team mates.
