You gain 1 AC - 5 from FD and 5 from CE for a total of 10 AC and -9 AB.Rask wrote: ↑Fri Jun 03, 2022 4:00 am RIP my sorc, if im reading this right im going to lose 6AC from the build due to loss of ICE?, and all the bigby's spells will be significantly less useful.Oh well. Good thing I dont play them as a high combat character I guess. though I could be reading things wrong entirely.
Huge buff for Duelist though, that makes that class way more compelling now. This will probably be better for my MAA overall as well, but it seems like I will end up with a lot of wasted feats across my characters and will need to RCR.
You gain 1 feat which can be used elsewhere or removing a multiclass that enables taking tumble as a class skill.
You gain 6 skill points as you effectively only need 25 tumble ranks to gain the max use of FD.
Your only nerf is Bigby's and that is pvp specific and you would essentially not ever run around with that buff constantly (freedom of movement), unless you are metaing, incredibly paranoid as a character or intenting to abuse/exploit that fact against known arcane spellcasters.
All in all, any change of this magnitude will 1000000% cause players to adapt and of course some players who have invested years/months into characters will be affected greatly.
In my own opinion, the changes are directly causing everyone to "work" in their sparetime since they are required to change how they play, what they have built over a period of time, invested great amounts of time, fun and effort into. That will always cause some friction. Will you stop playing with these changes? That would be question really. I don't think you will, so give opinions and feedback and utimately, the team is trying to make the server better, be more roleplay friendly and less of a number crunching setup, as I would definately think it is now. That seems to be a change for the better, would you say so?
