I agree that WAR is the better game. But WoW is the more fluid. Often I find myself thinking of SWG when playing PvE WAR.
This is one of the key reasons I keep playing WoW. I mean I hate a great deal of it (pvp and resil are WAY up there. So Arthas can’t crit you, but I can with my caster dagger lawl! (srsly wtf?)), but it is more playable.
I’m not against PvP, in fact I spend 90% of my time doing it in WAR. Whether youre good at it or not, its just more enjoyable in WAR.
Make WAR less clunky, and id be hard pushed to look back at WoW.

your asking for punishmen as a melee SH, pet or not

SW’s have some insane melee damage compared to SH’s it seems. had a duel vs one the other day (both were 32 and iirc haf full set of devastator armor) and that SW walked all over me even with gas squig and using the battle squig “buff”

did moderately better with the stock squig the second round because of frenzy but not a whole lot.

and there werent any running around either, was pure button mashing standing still

In that case, yes, youre just asking for punishment as a melee SH

Not much use for a melee squig herder though losing my armour = dead.

Instead, they get the lovely stanceless bug where you can completely remove your stance and your ability to use all but about 3-5 abilities for the next 5 seconds. If you notice your pet is frequently dieing, you can always slot “All by meself” and enjoy the 25% damage boost when you don’t have the pet. Or, just make sure you have Shootin wif da Wind, and be at almost 100′ range all the time.

Aye

Haven’t had much time to play this particular gimp unfortunately but I was quite intrigued by the short range high-crit version of quick shooting that they get.

Hmm, wonder if they’re going to bring back relics.

I hope they get rid of the zone locking (tier locking is probably cool but zone locking should go, it’s so artificial and IMO a big part of what makes WAR feel like it’s just a game with maps and not a virtual world )

Hopefully I’ll have the time to get up to 40 fairly soon would like to compare it to the SH experience.

Andy Belford on the official forums about the redesign of the forts:

“We’ve never shied away from the admission that we are willing to decouple fortresses from the campaign. Right now one of our goals is to remove areas of extreme frustration for our players. And like Jeff alluded to in his letter, we have some pretty cool, and what I’m betting are going to be very popular plans for those detached forts. It’s all about the realm pride baby. ”

Let’s wait and see what they plan to add some “realm pride”
