MMO-Champion BlueTracker - Assassination Tree Feedback

2008-09-05 14:48:07

We're in the process of getting talent trees more stable and polished so that we get a better feeling for the overall state of the classes and the expansion.

This is your opportunity to provide feedback on the Assassination talents. Please try and stick to that topic and not wander into more general issues. This is not a great spot for general blue Q&A or dps comparisons to other classes for example. Instead, let us know which talents work and don't work and which ones are fun. We'll hit the other two trees soon.

While you are welcome to write as much as you want, keep in mind that these threads tend to get very long so there is something to be said for brevity too.

Re: Assassination Tree Feedback

Just wanted to make one comment on bloat. Having plenty of talents that you want put can't get is good for the trees. Also, some trees just have a lot of talents in them because they're trying to offer some very different options, while others are quite small.

What we do want to avoid, however, is a situation where there are so many "mandatory" talents that you end up not being able to pick up the fun talents. Mandatory talents are typically those that offer passive buffs to dps or efficiency that nobody in their right mind would skip over. We're fine having some of those, but having too many can tend to push builds more towards being cookie cutters.

We realize your trees are in a big of flux, which makes it hard to comment, but on the other hand, we're in a really good position right now to make adjustments to the trees.
