Now that preview has been going for several weeks now and there has been an immense level of feedback for us to review, we have made some core changes to further improve the balance. These will likely go to preview later this week, barring any complications.

Ratings now convert at 1000 rating points to 1%

Defense now caps at 50% damage ignored. Certain temporary buffs can bypass this cap up to a maximum of 80% damage ignored.

Critter ratings have been adjusted to have two values. Defense/Deflect/Combat Advantage/and Crit will be a higher value than the other four ratings. Critter ratings have been adjusted as well. Ex: level 70 critters will have 7,000 rating for Critical Resist, Accuracy, Awareness, and Armor Pen. They will have 57,000 ratings for Defense, Deflect, Combat Advantage, and Critical Strike. At endgame, the higher ratings are always 50,000 more than the lower ratings.

Encounter and Daily magnitudes have been brought down, making At-Will powers more effective in relation.

Critter Health has been reduced by 30% across the board

Multi-target At-Wills have had their damage increased


So why were these particular changes made?

With the values ratings currently have, players routinely either have below the threshold for a given rating which means it has zero effectiveness, or they have wasted stats because the cap for effectiveness has been exceeded.

By changing the conversion from 500 to 1% to 1000 to 1% it gives a wider variance in values. This in turn allowed us to lower the critter ratings so that players who have even minimal viable gear should find it easy to see some effectiveness from their ratings. In addition, separating the critter ratings into two categories allows for all ratings to have similar investments put into them for effectiveness. The way it is on preview now, players need over twice as much for half their ratings which is an odd balancing act.

There has been no shortage of talk about At-Wills not feeling meaningful enough to want to use. While mathematically over the course of a fight, or dungeon run, they added up to a significant amount of damage, it didn't feel that way due to the size of individual hits. To bring At-Wills closer to other powers, we reduced the magnitudes of Encounter and Dailies and reduced overall critter health to adjust for the lower overall damage.

As with all aspects, further changes could happen before this goes live.

yep, de passer de 500 à 1000, c'est plus un ajustement, c'est de l'amateurisme.

Après c'était tellement facile de ce capé sur toutes les stats, qu'il fallait le faire.

Donc si j'ai bien compris, le tableau d'Agilesto devient:

Stats offensives contre lvl 80:
Neutralisation d'armure: 24 000
Précision: 24 000
Coup critique: 69 000
Avantage de combat: 114 000 (?? en l'état je crois que c'est une stat à oublier…)
Puissance: pas de cap

Stats défensives contre lvl 80:
Défense: 74 000 (cap 50%)
Déviation: 74 000
Résistance critique: 29 000
Acuité: 34 000
PV: pas de cap
