Just a thought but is this really the right move to implement KR/RU/JP class changes to our western version? I can only assume that they are using data from those regions which include play style, meta and progression. We do not match that at all. Maybe I am overthinking it but would it be possible because of this something gets over tuned or under tuned on our side?
Thoughts?
yes it is right to implement it. The data is based on relic sets which we’re about to have with this patch, level 10 gems, which will be easier to get with this patch, bracelets arent here yet sure.
But it doesnt change the fact that without being end game like kr, zerker/deathblade and sorc are outperforming every class by a margin, other classes can use the qol and dmg increases to close the gap so everyone is contributing their fair amount to a boss fight
It is very deeply needed.
The balance won’t necessarily be perfect for our levels but it would be an absolute nightmare to maintain two branches with that much difference for any amount of time.
Lance master arrived with current KR nerfs, Destroyer is going to come with current KR buffs. I think all balance changes should be implemented ASAP so current classes are on equal footing.
i think its better to implement them sooner rather than later in case some of the changes require engraving swap/ stat swap etc so you can strart relic gearing without the looming fact that you woud need to redo it in few months
Much much much better to get it now then after people invest in relic gear. This way we do not have to change builds up (though very few classes actually need to change) after we invest a ton of gold into relic accessories.
