Subject: Changes and proc'ing question


I know, funny they forget to mention things that would make people happy.

I think the reason the patch message abbreviation of our song name was so
irritating because it is part of a general problem not because of its own
specific incident. It's readily apparent that bards are often treated as an
afterthought. Our songs regularly fail even the most trivial testing when
introduced (heal target rather than harm, are DoT's that only work on self,
do nothing, etc.) and that really annoys people. It was like a sore that
had been festering for months, and that line in the patch message was just
another poke at the sore by Verant.

Did anyone notice that procs were going off far more than usual last nite?
I have been wielding two proc'ing weapons a lot since I've been in good
groups lately and noticed last night what I thought was an overabundance of
procs. Since it seemed high I checked with prior results I had gotten and
the number of procs was definitely a lot higher last night. Somewhere on
the order of going from 3 per fight to 7 per fight with the same mobs. Did
anyone else notice this? I plan to get numbers tonite.
