Eliminate the starter pack confusion

[borg9]

No... its not changed. They said it in the patch notes, and I tested it with a new char... but nothing from enchanted heals or attacks.

I think what you are talking about is the fix to enchantments that ment Healers didn't gain XP from using normal heal spells, if they use an enchantment during the fight.

Eg.

Cast heal
Use enchantment

= no xp

the healer should have gained xp for the fight becuase they cast the origninal heal. This was often not the cast as the use of the enchantment 'reset' the number of successful actions to 0

Glad I wasn't the only one confused by that

I saw it posted that you cant nerf your character which is definitely true. In the long run you can't mess it your character up really. Though the reason I think a change like this would be good is that fact that it would give new players a chance to see it all instead of just picking 3 melee packs because they want to fight. If they start out with a little from all then they can see it all and decide what they like after and maybe it will catch their interest in SoR better.

Wouldn't it be easier to have a jack of all trades selection in addition to the current system, that way none is lost. Something like this (haven't added the SPs):

damage/accurace, dagger
acid/heal, amp
craft plan (no start mats?), craft tool
basic extract, basic prospect, harvest tool
