    I remember the old PWI,back when people helped each other & no class was or felt excluded, not saying there weren't other issues but I've been a barb since the game came out & have never had "the pick of drops" or let people pay my repairs etc etc & have always been happy to help if I have time but I don't see how these changes help anyone. I don't see sin's needing to control their aggro because of these changes or barb's being needed to tank anymore than before and the only people who'll be hurt by it are barb's who went "aps" to keep up with the times so to speak as barb's already do the lowest damage & have the lowest accuracy in game.
    If they really want to "balance" the game then they should improve barb's aggro skills so we hold aggro regardless of the damage other classes do or increase our damage so we can at least DD adequately when we're not tanking.
    I also haven't in all this time,seen any changes in how long it may take over world chat or other means to fill a squad,whether looking for a "barb & cleric" or other classes,ijs....
    Please note; I'm not in a position where i'm comfortable using bloodbath regularly but it's always an option for barb's to counteract the accuracy reduction & I'm not able to test out the new skills & any effects they may have on damage & aggro, I'm only hoping that at least 1 of them is in tiger form as I,& a lot of barb's I know,rarely use humanoid form for anything other than buffing.

    Hey guys. I wanted to chime in with a clarification.

    The APS damage and accuracy reduction is not reflected on your character panel. You will only see an appreciable change by checking your combat log below and above 4.0 APS.

    Equip gear to get yourself to 4.0 aps and start attacking. You'll suddenly see a string of 'misses' roughly 20% of the time, on top of any innate miss chance you have. Sorry if this wasn't communicated better, but you will not be able to verify this feature by simply looking at your character screen.

    Like I said its not every 5 hit.
    Ex if I remove my Lunar rings -100% accuracy
    I dont miss 100%

    get an aps char and try it.
    Logic fail

    i am not saying it did happen al the time but.Back then you couldn't be picky with barbs. if you found a barb and he wanted first pick you hadde two option go with it and hope that you got one or two nice drops or wc for another 30min for another barb.

    today if you get a sin that want first pick then you can replace him in 1 min with another sin
