...SNIP.... Thirdly, I can't communicate our future plans. This is mostly due to us being a public company, but there is also a fair chance that things will change. DoD, for example, one of the major complaints about the change will be fixed with an upcoming dungeon content update, but not something we are talking about yet....SNIP....

Dumbox (theorycrafter);
The latest patch didn't just reverse the 25% reduction in the healing power of Fired Up, it doubled the power of its healing over what it was on Testlive, making it about 43% more effective than what it is on Live.

Visceru
Developer:
The training targets' positions have been slightly adjusted in all three training rooms. You should be able to find at least a couple of solitary dummies in each of the three areas.
It's unlikely we'll be customizing the target status effects in this round of training room improvements, but we will look at the possibility of a basic heal dummy.

Obviously the biggest complaint about the Do or Die changes is that being rooted makes it hard to use in many dungeons. I hope this doesn't mean that dungeons will become more stationary...

If recent content (flappy, hel, some kaidan folk) is anything to go by, I'm guessing some of the future dungeon critters will have invulnerable phases that you can't burn past and will have to run around and avoid circles/maybe kill adds. I remember on the forums Nusquam wasn't too thrilled with ham/fist squads downing Ur-draug in a few seconds :)

I seriously doubt this Fleta, it is if i recall Tiltys post correctly a matter of risk/reward with the root effect.
So use it and do damage, but if an AoE happens you will likely die :)
That way it really becomes Do or Die :P
 
New loading screen,at least for testlive

mhmm the nerf to pvp uniform penetrating hits is interesting, is it really possible to avoid putting them on?
 
as a dragon, i have to stand behind this changes!
to me it seems as if they rolled some dice to see which stats to increase or reduce... :D

GENERAL

* (Testserver) Informed Henry the Hotdog vendor that his hotdog stand isn't chic enough to be one of those no-name pop-up restaurants, and added a tooltip for his map waypoint.

GUI

I've heard a lot of complaints about testlive being way too easy now with QL1 greens + inner wheel abilities able to do Carpathian Fangs. For people that have tested the most recent version, are those complaints overblown?
