Endless mage nerfs?

[botrainer]

Im getting kinda tired of seeing every other patch, if not each patch some sorta of pet nerf, spell nerf, of class nerf of mage endlessly.

Mage class is solely a DPS class, Yes the pet is powerful, but mages cant snare, root, port, OR heal...Id like to ask the staff to consider these things before the next patch nerfs the ability to send pets in unless its master is attacked first...Much like the chanter pet currently is.

PLEASE, stop the endless nerfing of mages, its partly why they are poofing from this server.

Be kinda nice if pets like earth pet could really tank mobs

(Mostly noting, Pets no longer able to proc sword of runes anymore)

I didn't see anything in patch notes about sword of runes not procing for pets?

Also, when did mages get the ability to reclaim pets to "cani"?

no complaining about nerfs til you play a druid for more than a year on this server

we are the whipping boys for the nerf bat

At the rate of players? Please, Ive been exping for nearly 3 hours today, Sword of Rune proc has yet to trigger once during this time. Its clearly broken and needs to be looked at.

This is a classic server with classic (or as close to classic as is reasonably possible) mechanics. If you believe a change has been made that is NOT classic, provide evidence of such and the devs will take it in to consideration.

Whining about mages being nerfed when they were nerfed in the classic timeline is pointless. Also, pets still proc weapons, just at the same rate as players now (read the patch notes).

Shit's classic.

dont think pet xp nerf is classic

been brought up plenty

Well, cept the patch notes don't really do a good job of explaining changes.

Alecta: After November 2000 in the server timeline, pets will have their weapons proc as if they were players.

So I read this, and what i'm thinking is...

first, I don't even know where this server is in the timeline. We've been in kunark for 3 years...so where exactly are we claiming to be within the kunark timeline?

second, ok, were pets procing less than players? So now pet proc rate has been increased? Or was it indeed nerfed? My procing swords proc 1-2 times per fight. If players don't proc more than that...

Alecta posted in "bugs" section regarding this... He/she stated they are following basically what the sword text reads "Ward Summon", meaning it only procs vs summoned creatures... Now if this is classic or not I have no clue... Anyone know?

PS: From what I read and how I understand Alecta's post, it's been totally removed unless attacking summoned mob...

pets should never have been able to proc Sword of Runes on anything but elemental npcs. it was a mistake on live and it was a mistake here.

Would it really be a classic server if we didn't have people whine about class nerfs?
