i hope the stability and performance issues will be resolved really. The game just crashes while i am writing this post
And what can u say about the broken dragon attacks?
Rogues aren't the only ones able to get into spawn points - CW's and DC's can too. Does this mean it has been fixed so that none of those classes can get in?
GJ so far u guys are awesome!
4 set bonus cant be called bonus ATM its worse than blue items
Incorrect. GWFs are also able to with Flourish.
Also, there really should be some kind of serious penalty for the first person to quit out of a dungeon party. Maybe block them from any queue for a few hours. The Malabog quest would be a definite exception until the queue actually works for it. Of course, allowing a party leader to request replacements from the queue and allowing people queuing to be able to check a box if they're willing to join a quest-in-progress would alleviate a lot of the problem too.
That is NOT the way to go. When are you giong to pay attention to your clerics? It's getting quite ridiculous already.
I want this class in NW.
I absolutely agree with this. The queue system is a nightmare. When you want a replacement player, you never get one. When you're running with your guild and someone leaves and you're totally fine with finishing 4 man, the queue seems to constantly stick you with a 5th player that you either kick over and over again (which I hate doing) or hope that the PUG doesn't do something stupid enough to get you killed and abides by whatever lootroll practices your guild uses. We actually make use of Greed unless we actually do need it. But because of how the roll system works, everyone usually needs whenever possible.
I wish you could enter with a party less than 5, and invite people to your party who can join you. For easy dungeons, sometimes I want to 3 or 4 man it. But mostly, if someone has to go, I want to invite a friend of guildie to join us. But that's just impossible. I guess if it worked this way, it might open up some new kinds of exploits, but honestly, none of the well-known exploits are ever fixed anyway, so what's one more if it makes life easier for everyone else.
I just saw the fix that addresses this and it should go out next week.
Thank you so much! It's been affecting us DCs for long enough that we were starting to feel like no one noticed or cared. It's good to know that it's being worked on.

That's very much appreciated.
Is a little bit more of love too much to ask? Maybe a little treat like... a slight buff?
I want this class in NW.
What is your definition of buff? How about "Devoted Cleric: Flame Strike now estimates damage listed as fire."
A buff would be something that no longer makes clerics the laughing stock of every PvP match.
Join Starfleet,
Boldly go where no man has gone before,
Meet interesting new species, and Kill them!
Perhaps making sure that when it DOES crit again, it will proc Repurpose Soul? Daunting Light, too!
How about...

What I said wasn't incorrect lol. Failure of inclusion of GWFs being able to get across didn't magically invalidate the fact that CW/DC/Rogues are able to
i would like to see:
Healing Word: Will now automatically target the party member with the lowest health when casted near other players, other wise will be act as it always has. (trying to target someone in a mob of players almost makes this spell useless in groups imo)
Moreover I have problems with the character window now using my mouse.
And it is still possible to shorten the Fardelver's Crypt dungeon with the last respawn point and re-entering the instance.
Your second point is fixed for this weeks push: Character Equipment: Dragging items from the equipment slots should not longer drag the window as well.
