Let's talk about the upcoming DRG rework...

Best as I can tell, the only 2 potential ogcd cuts are spineshatter and dragonsight. You can decide how much that bothers your or not, but they showed the rest of them in the trailer.

We may have also lost a 3rd nastrond under life phase? It being a 20s window and assuming the cd is still 10s. Who knows though? Maybe they'll shorten the nastrond CD or even just give us charges on nastrond to use within the life window?

My current guestimate is that we lose 2 spineshatters, 1 nastrond use and dragon sight in exchange for that nidhogg looking thing and the cool new jump. So potentially -2 in the 2min ogcd department. But then also who knows if they wipl give us more charges of certain abilities? Maybe they will change the CDs of certain existing skills? Geirskogul at the very least I suspect will get a bump up to 60s CD.

My bigger concern is honestly the removal of the eye management aspect of life of the dragon. Yes it could get frustrating in multiphase fights like the ultimates when you missed an eye going into the next phase, but thats also what made optimisation interesting, kept you on your toes during prog. Now its potentially just using gierskogul on CD. I mean I know I said I wanted it to be less drift prone but damn less does not mean none.

That being said, there's still too much we don't know yet but I definately share the concern of the majority. I am very suspect of the supposed "Rework" that seems so far like a super dumbed down version of DRG. BUT all we can do is wait till the media tour folks give us more info.

I am holding on to the hope but oooof it's lookin rough bois.
