Emphasis mine- this part will do it for me. Believe it or not I didn't consider that part; I did put thought into them changing evocation spells, and I tunnel-visioned on it, since I couldn't come up with a change to an evocation spell they'd actually contemplate making that would simultaneously break true flames and shatter the meta, which is why I was asking for a specific example, so thank you.Drowboy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 3:27 pmIs there really, honestly, an answer for this that would be enough? The devs have said on this and every other grandfathering attempt that it makes things harder for them. Trying to balance mages, spells, spawns, etc, around weavemaster was hard enough it got chunked.
What kind of hypothetical future changes? Anything to sorc that would have to compensate for TF's existence (Or be coded around it to exclude TF, which is more work, and depending on what Arelith's scripts look like specifically, quite possibly a good deal of it) and if it's done on the hak level it's even worse.
Anything with evo spells? All those "please buff save or x spell" threads?
It's still a very bittersweet feeling, though. The truth is I'd rather roll the character and have him retire as a true flame than have his established story and capabilities be shifted, and it's a tough pill to swallow that I need to just suck it up, because I'm essentially asking to turn down several major buffs so that I can keep my weaker build true to its RP.
Does anyone have an estimate on how much time I have to close the distance from 24 to 26 before the class is migrated?
Maybe I'll finally get a greater and use it to make an invoker...
