Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning News - Patch 1.3: Class & RvR Changes

Posted by Dana Massey on May 12, 2009  | 32 comments in our forums

Land of the Dead (check out our preview) isn't the only thing Mythic is up to in Patch 1.3, due out in early June. We have a preview of the class and RvR tweaks they have in store.

At Baltimore Games Day, Producer Jeff Skalski talked to us about RvR changes on the way, while Combat and Careers Team Lead Nate Levy updated us on what changes to expect in the big old world of class balance.

Nothing too major is planned, but he did admit that the Shadow Warriors need a bit of attention. They plan some tweaks to how their stances work, based on user feedback. It’s a class that is good at a lot of things, but not particularly spectacular at anything. They hope to fix that with some smaller changes.

He also noted that Area of Effect spells (AOEs) are a bit overpowered at the moment, which is great for Bright Wizards, but not so fun for most everyone else. So expect some changes there too. Shamans and Archmages will get some tweaks as well, a continuation of the work they began in the previous patch. Though every class can expect minor adjustments, Levy emphasized that all changes would be closer to tweaks than overhauls.
