Most of the armour requirement changes also please me, but I still think medium armour needs a boost.
Would you leave if they hadn't changed this but changed significant gamepley instead? People are leaving because of the static gameplay.

Just so we're clear on something Jyudas, apart from MA crafting, what other skills do you use?

He's 200+ melee for one thing. (and its sword too, not the relatively easy pike)

You'll have to tell me what YOU mean by 'significant gameplay'.

The thing most likely to make me leave is the increased PvP going on, that's a significant shift in gameplay as far as I'm concerned. If it starts tying in more with story that'll be enough to placate though.

Desert Forage (But I find it boring, I just do it to make cash). That's over 100.
Magic heal and attack somewhere around the 50-70 mark, not entirely sure as I rarely use it, mostly because people need me to attack/tank and because I find elemental dull.

A scattering of craft skills, something in every category.

Could be I found the answer to my own question. I just had a read of the French forum.

A thread started on August first has had 11,546 hits to date & 376 replies. I guess we are relatively insignificant, so I won't need my Chrissie presents after all. Draw your own conclusions.

Would that be the "15 good reasons for the coming of Jena" thread?

After the first page, most/all are one liner replies ;) And infact, a lot of people posting 4 in a row (eg posts 120-123)

Nicely dodged.

Would you leave if they hadn't made the changes you like?

Not really dodging, what you consider significant gameplay and what I consider significant gameplay can be wildly different.

No, I wouldn't have left, but the current state of Elemental in PvE or PvP annoys the hell out of me. You're still going to have to be more specific for me to give a proper answer that'll satisfy you.

I think that balance changes are major changes to current gameplay. However, that is not enough to keep people interested in mid/long term. I still think that those changes are necessary and long overdue but Nevrax must come out with new stuff or content regularly to keep people interested.
