    It's random... just like every other item. It is a gamble, same as spending gold on crafting. There is no difference and they don't give us a range for those stats, so why would they change now?

    Personally dont mind the power 'rollback' (crit in particular), since all players are equally affected. Should help pvp at any rate, since less people will be 1-2hitting everyone, which will help bring skilled f2pers into the game a bit more.
    Just need to get used to a drastically different feel of the game. Any change is welcome from me - even if it's a downscale lol

    Is it true that you guys are changing skills already.
    WAIT PLEASE STOP atleast until the r155 goes on live servers.
    You know only most of the hardcore gamers or PVPers have acc on test server. Most casual gamers don't go to test server.
    Please wait until r155 goes on live servers and then change skills accordingly.

    I secound this idea and have a suggestion on how it can be done in an honest fastion. The new gem is for 45 level and the old one stops working at 45. New gem is obtained with the quest to get into lor'tac

    I don't get it. Whats the point if everyone gets the gem? It would make no difference at all :D
    It will probably takes 2-3 days to reach the new levelcap 50. I don't care about 5% more or less expierencepoints.

    Question,
    could you change the values of the Mobs to drop Gold instead of the same copper and silver for the new levels?;)

    yes, what he said ^
    Who still needs 1 silver drop from a mob? It costs over 100 gold to craft 1 legendary and the mobs drop 1 silver? Useless.
    The coins dropped from mobs barely cover the repair costs of your equipment. And more than half of the greens sell for only 10 silver. After a run in q3 I sell the greens and get about 4-6 gold. Meh. And it takes me 40-50 minutes to run through both maps in q3. (maybe some pro groups can do it much faster though).


    @lewcar The crit nerf is a good idea for pvp, yes. Because most of the time you got killed in 1-2 shots, which was not fun at all.
    But what about pve? Now the nerf only affects us, but not the mobs. Not fair anymore. We'll have to wait and see if the new "awesome" legendaries and uniques, and the improvements here and there will compensate for the crit loss at level 50.​

    I don't think so. We need new challenges for PvE. :p

    LOL, if I want a challenge like that for pve, I won't use half of my items. And no essence and buffs. Problem solved.
    We don't need them to nerf our crit in pve so we can feel we have a challenge, make the monsters more interesting, more intelligent with cool skills and stuff, but don't nerf us.
    It's like you're saying: please government, take half of our monthly income because we are bored otherwise and we don't have a challenge.

    From my perspective: nerfing the crit in pve will result in more frustration. But of course I'm still waiting to see the actual improvements to the damage and other items / sets / skills and new overall system and then I can say for sure.

    They dont nerfed it at all. The just changed the curve and its now linear. The items on level 50 will have much better entchantments so you will still be able to get 50% or more critical hitrate.

    It seems to me that they did nerf it. Because from what I've seen so far on the forum, where trakilaki and baragain showed a few items with crit on them. The crit is very bad, about the same as before, on the old items. But then again, like I said, we'll have to wait and see on the live server because maybe they had bad luck in finding some good items with good crit.
    Or maybe they'll give us some cool karabossa set for level 50 with like 60% more crit or something.

    Yes, it does at first glance. But I think it will be balanced after being some time on level 50 :)

    @CM Haruki has officially stated that the crit rate has been nerfed and will remain nerfed.

    Question

    Any ranger or wise player who know how it will be with speed of arrows, precision shots? Now we have pvp skill for 33% faster arrows, but on test server I didnt notice anything about this.

    Not nerfed? Did you play on TS?
    Yes it has been nerfed BIG.
    Take a look at this screenshot

    5700 crit for ~51% is not nerfing to you?
    To be more interesting ... I wear a full Dark Armor + legendary book level 50 (new one). And of course I have critical hit enchantments on the left hand side items ... wearing Dark Armor (which is the best critical hit set in this stupid game) and book and all those crap for only 51%?
    To get this 51% I have to throw out : HP, armor, damage and all the other useful things just to have critical hit 51% ... and that makes my character cannon fodder ... 1 hit and he is dead.
    There is no fricking way you can have that crit hit with a shield/ball.
    And that is not nerfing for you??

    I know.

    And the other big problem is the linear crit. Which means that if you decide to lose let's say 2k crit to get other useful improvements, you will lose the crit linearly, which means about 20% crit. Your remaining 3k crit won't work as before (the less it was, the stronger it was), now you lose crit chance directly proportional to the lost crit points. Am I making any sense?

    What I'm trying to say is that before, if you had a lot of crit, you could just sacrifice some of it and still not notice a big difference. But now you will !

    Yes ... lose the book/quiver and equip the ball/shield and you are back to 20%.

    ... and here is what it looks like only without that book

    all other items are the same.
