    Unless you forgot, r9 weapon demon sins are 4.0. They do the most damage among sins.... and they didn't get nerfed with this change at all.

    yeah but I am talking about all the 5aps sins since not all the sins on our server are r9, the r9 sins just luck out with the new nerf.

    What you call luck, I call a scheme for more money. Think about it for a moment.

    Without the constant addition of new higher level instances, most of this games charm lies in the pvp and tw aspects. There is where it shows the most how broken the game is =\

    I don't get this at all. "charm lies in the pvp"? We're both playing the same game, I trust? PvP on Perfect World used to be fun once upon a time. Now it's anything but fun. For some classes, that means "hit macro and kill and run off after". For others, that means "stand there stunned till you die or your attacker disappears". And WTF with "PvP" now pretty much consisting of "West Gate, Silver Pool, and wherever a sin decides to go gank"? *sigh*

    I have a sin and I already decided sticking to a 4.0 r8 will still let me DD like crazy without having to spend money for the r9. Its just not worth it to spend the money for the daggers when r8 hits pretty hard.

    The -20% accuracy may as well be the same as nerfing the cap to 4.0 for PvP, you're just keeping the ability to gain chi faster... why do we need -5% damage...

    Also, as has been previously stated, the strongest high APS setup (4.0 R9 sin) is completely unaffected by this. Jeez

    yes its sad but a sin doing 5 little slaps a second will be picked over a sin doing 3.33 decent hits because majority of pwi duno what theyre doing and they just get hard over aps... but hopfully this will change that

    +1 to this. I did a PWcalc on it and really, my sage mastery puts me right up there without GoF ofc witht the same refines and sharding

    5 aps only, everyone else is unchanged. That's why I'm really feeling sorry for the GoF -int G15 sins. They were on pair with r9 sins before this update, and now they got **** slapped down while the r9 sins were untouched.

    really the 1 extra hit a second didnt make up the diffrence of 30 attack levels and an extra grade higher

    Attack Speed changes
    Once a player surpasses 4.0 attack speed, whether passively or via a buff, they will incur a -5% damage penalty as well as a -20% accuracy penalty.

    I understand there is a need for balance in the game. but ****...so much money wasted trying to get 5aps.

    Kinda sucks.

The accuracy penalty might be bad for characters with lower dex (BM, Barb), but Sins and Archers won't feel a difference. The damage penalty is LOL. Try 50% on both and lower aps limit to 2! And that would be STILL too fast. THAT would be the real rebalancing.
    Seems redundant. What about armor attributes that would counter the penalty? Like boots that add speed, and armor that reduces damage by %? Seems like with the right armor, they won't feel a thing.

    They only look at 5aps, which is BS 4.0 should have been nerfed as well.

    IMO, > 3.33 is the problem. Except maybe for archers using an Archer-designed weapon. (Not that I *like* being pewpewed at that speed, but still.)
