Regarding yet again... more nerfs.

You missed the entire point of my post. Read the last sentence.

Oh I read the last sentence.

It's just that by the very nature of vertical progression, the last tier of content has to be phased out. The increase in ilvl speaks for itself really.

There's no more of a gap beween i90 and i110 than there is between i70 and i90. I see lots of people in full darklight running things they shouldn't, so I see no reason that i90 gear/content couldn't have held its place until we make it to i130 (or whatever's coming up next).

Well, I remember we all were clearing turn 1/2 in mostly all i70 and the developers were shocked we were getting to turn 4. Of course, turn 4 was more of a gear check, for weeks we didn't have the dps to down the first dread before the next adds spawned.

Anyway, I see your point, it's valid. So, all I can say is, this is just how its going to be.

Although, I still don't think this is a big nerf, since you still need to observe mechanics.

I do believe people overestimated the potency of the Echo-Buff. Coil will not receive a nerf -> Players will have a buff ( Thats a difference there ) and also not right away. It will take what? 2 weeks (?) for each additional buff and it is not even in place right away after the Update. 10% more HP, more Damage will not make people be better DD's, healers, will not improve their skills in Teamplay, Coordination and dodging. 10% might does sound a lot, but if it comes do dodging t5, those 10% won't mean shit since getting tossed into a wall will still kill you, getting caught by Twisters will still kill you, eating Death-Sentence/Plummet will still hurt/kill you. Let aside that a Divebomb hitting a whole group, also still will fucking hurt lol.

You still have to learn the fight/mechanics. The Echo Buff is not an "Instant Win Buff".
