1. Do you not read the DEV posts, I won't point out names, but one of the top programmers/leaders for 11 has stated he didn't beat maat and doesn't have a character at max level... I'd say that qualifies as not playing the game, don't you? (especially today were returning players can be at cap in a week or less)
2. I never said you will always take 100% more damage from here out, I said I noticed 25% increase/decrease from berserker/defender, and how insane an increase to 100% will be. And lets face it, if you noticed 25% your gonna feel 100% five rows back. like when someone you don't know gets kicked in the junk, and you feel it...
It's real simple, but you took my words, and twisted them. All I said was 100% is too much. I gave, what i thought was simple, a reference about how I notice the damage increase from berserker, as well as the damage taken increase. Based on this, I feel increasing ANY DAMAGE TAKEN to 100% it's current value, under ANY CONDITION, is too extreme and shows a lack of judgement on the DEV. My belief, as based upon their responses and personal statements made about thier own game play experiences lead me to believe this.
