Viper Changes Thread - Share your thoughts

Noticed this thread fell off the first page and wanted to hop in here and hopefully remind some people that while there's barely any chance that they will backpedal on the awful decision of removing Noxious Gnash and half the basic combo, if we don't keep hammering the point that this is a detrimental move that does not solve the inherent issue they claim people had with the job and they need to never make these kinds of changes again out of the blue with zero warning, the chance becomes zero.

From a different angle, does anyone follow the other language forums, is the sentiment similar over there?

Good call, really. I wish they would make a Blogpost like the one from a week after early access to inform us if they have heard us or not...

As for other languages, the german DPS forum is rather quiet, but the few posts I have seen there are very much against the changes.

Japanese forums are kind of half-and-half. There's lots of "I wish you removed positionals instead," and lots of "I think you should've just made it 30-60s instead of 20-40s," which I still disagree with, but at the very least there are hardly any posts that are super in support of Noxious Gash's removal.

Most notably, the JP forums seem to hate the addition of the Honed Steel/Honed Reavers buff from stage 1 of the combo, and the fact that they make your hotbar glow. They find it's distracting and makes it hard for people to tell where they're at in their combo. Pretty interesting to see that they both have subjective, personal-fondness based, and objective, design-based opinions for the job.

Other than that, there's a lot of the same stuff we're saying. The poison being gone from the snake job is cring, the filler feels empty now, etc, etc.
