Enemy ratings for Critical Strike, Deflect, Combat Advantage, and Defense are now higher than the other ratings, so that their counter-ratings retain some value for players.
But you wont tell us how high exactly they are now, compared to the 24.000 values, so we cannot know when our counter-ratings are over the cap, right?
It is hard for me to understand why many people voted for changing ratio from 500:1 to 1000:1. ("Ratings have been rebalanced per player feedback and performance.").
Yes, it would make the gap between players with top equipment and players with general equipment smaller (can be good for some players who want items to matter less, can be bad for other players who want their good equipment to have influence more) , but it is also an additional nerf to everyone, the reaon is - Power stat. Earlier every 10k Power gave 20% bonus to damage/healing, now it gives 10% -> straight nerf to everyone. Why would people ask for such a thing? If I don't understand something here, please correct me.
Don't misunderstand the wordplay used in his sentence to make a reader believe the stat change was a player request. No one voted. No one requested it. I've seen casual players, endgame players, elite players, and testers all say the same thing when this change was announced, "WTF are they doing?".
What the dev is really saying is: • Players gave feedback on gameplay • Players gave feedback on performance • I decided that they were getting stats too easily and made a global change to put an end to that
Nowhere did any player actually say "oh by the way devs could you cut our stats in half".

Meanwhile, inside the brain of The Took: Okay. Back into the preview we go... what? Oh. Patching? That's great news. So excited to test the improvements... Hmmm. Which improvements? Should I ask again? Last time I asked I was interrupting Terramak's vacation. That felt pushy and impatient. Is it pushy and impatient to ask again? It feels pushy and impatient to ask again.
Maybe I'll just wander around preview and see if I happen to notice anything different...
