Good idea, lets wait till Amun opens up then, and we can organize a date on the forum.

Thanks for keeping us informed and cant wait to try them out on Amun.

I think the changes are going to make group play even more necessary for archers. It's all about teamwork... and working in a cooperative team is very effective for grinding. We can all adapt to the changes together, learn how to balance our teams and still have loads of fun.

On the grinding front im kinda annoyed, its possible to get a really good rythm with a marks and a slow bow. And i find it a really good way of relaxing :P

Same for me. Too bad if that will not be possible anymore.

You're one of very few people I know who would put "grinding" and "relaxing" in the same sentance lilke that lol.

I don't mind the archer changes so much, as long as the overall impact on teamwork is a positive one.

# A global cooldown has been added for all powers to balance between fast and slow weapons. This cool down may be different per class and will allow us to add faster weapons in the future (such as dual wielding).

what does this mean?

Its a common thing in mmorpg with insane attack speed (runes of magic for example)

Basically, when you start casting a spell, all others enter in a very short cooldown (usually 2-3 seconds) so you dont cast 5 spells at once.

2-3 seconds would make locks worthless, so im hoping they limit it to a second or so max.

most Archer spells would be useless too. Range of bows are much too short. 20m for a short bow is a joke!!!
