Few things that need urgent attention

Defensive support I honestly don't know, but I think I usually see my animation so don't think I do it. But I see it missing on many others for sure.

Adding, if character is on combat mode, then take off combat mode and inmediatly cast a buff it bugs animation SOMETIMES, or im too dumb to understand the timing. Thats a long time bug. Take note @ngd.

1) The one thing i agree on and i doubt anyone will be against it - DI needs constant, visible, bright animation. I cannot count times that i try to cast non-damaging spells on DI-ed enemies and get killed because i realize too late that they are on this spell. If DI has a good animation it will be no such problem, because it can be instantly MS-ed by nearest knight. Currently you never know who has it until you try to cast non-damaging spell and you get the warning in your log.

2) Other thing that needs to be fixed ASAP - when spell is cancelled mid cast you loose the mana you needed to start the spell cast. If it is cancelled return mana and not waste it. Conjus WASTE alot mana because allies constantly run out of range, get kicked, get spells cancelled etc. It happens alot with slow cast time spells. For example you try to cast Life Saver on a barb which rushes. You start to cast and he gets out of range. Poof 400 mana gone to waste... fix please!

I bet the mana waste bug happens on warriors too if they are knocked mid area cast.

We already have solid ideas on how to do this, but it'll be done in the next balance revision, as we first want these changes to be released, tested, corrected and established in everyone's day to day gaming experiences. This way, it'll allow us to have a much more solid ground to work on

DI will be changed anyway sooner or LATER

And not to mention the retard game style of some hunters going camo in middle of the fight to cast ambush from behind.

->My suggestion is to remove knock from nature's fury and try to reduce the duration of confuse and skin of the beast a bit (10secs at the max).

I've always said pet hunters are trash unless its 1v1, changing pet buff durations will just make them worse. Besides, it costs large amounts of mana to cast these spells and they're on a very long cooldown.

Regarding camouflage, whats wrong with using it to attack from behind, isn't that the whole point of the hunter class, to make surprise attacks?

Seems to me you died a few times to someone using these combos and now you want them changed. sad

I would add 3 points to your list:
7) DI - reduce duration of this spell; it cancels 50% spells in this game and making rushing barbs to be in godmode
8) MS - effect is too strong; should only remove ally buffs
9) Mass Ress - there is no real counter against this spell and it can ruin the whole effort in killing enemies;
Mass Cremation is needed :P I suggest to rework current cremation spell: 1lvl - 1 enemy, 2lvl 2 enemies, 3lvl 3 enemies, 4lvl 4 enemies, 5lvl 5 enemies; 300 sec cooldown; 100% chance

Like those 7,8 and 9 suggestions and about 5 I still think players will log off immediately after GC is down to match the 60 secs log off duration. Still doesn't solve the issue.

On a side note, cast speed shouldn't effect mount cast time.

I get what you say here but a barb catching you with roar after a dismount takes high level of precision and timing not that many barbs here time perfect roar after dismount. On the other hand a hunter just has to do a simple confuse and he can distracting shot or other spells with no problem, makes a difference, right?

I am aware of the mana costs and duration of this spells and the sacrifice pet hunters make to get them. They just made pet hunter too op with combining nature's fury. If you ever get in to a scenario I mentioned above I sure your 5k hp wouldn't help either. Either there should be a nerf on confuse duration or the knock on nature's fury has to go.

I don't really think it is hard. It really makes no difference, just because some people lack the ability to time it. How does it help me? If it is someone who can time it, it's sure death for me, I don't care if another barb wouldn't have been able to.
A warlock who darkness you off the mount can keep you in an endless cc chain and kill you easily too. I just added the barb example to point out that not only hunters do that.

But this wasn't my point anyway. There is a reason why NGD added a dizzy effect after you dismount on your own. Or why it has a long cast time (again cast speed shouldn't effect it). They clearly want you to have a disadvantage if you get into combat with your mount. It is just meant for getting faster from point A to B, if you get caught, tough luck. Happens to all of us.

I just don't understand why you combined your natures fury complaint with dismounting. If you find the spell OP in general, fine by me. But it makes no sense to balance anything around mounts.

Thing here is you can see all sub classes except for camoed hunter, aye? So, if you get caught by classes other than hunter it is your fault to be in that position. You could stun, freeze, knock and dizzy a lock if you get darkness from mount. Good luck doing any of those on a hunter in sotw and you under confuse. Point is I am making no complaints, I just don't like the idea of giving a hunter x2 knocks considered confuse 5 being so damn op.

No animation to DI until NGD fixes visual bugs such as Mana Pylon, Communion, picky Ivy, Confuse, etc. We won't be able to tell who has DI or not due to this bug, just like now.

Thanks,

That is a fix needed, although disabling ''logging off'' wont really fix anything as that is an ingame feature. Anyone can just alt f4 or go to task manager and quit. Many ways. Although the player can still log back in, so the best possible way is to give a penalty of 30 minutes which does not let them log back in.

this, or make the log out timer (when being inside a foreign fort) simply be ~2 mins. Only downside: Alt+F4'ers won't be able to log in again for 2 minutes. Bult force-quitting the game is more an abuse than a game mechanic, so whatever.

However, what if the fort is not under attack, everybody's just chillin around, should a quick character change be discouraged??
