    I dare not get excited about Dark Knight adjustments again... The Tar Pit and Carnal Chill changes were nice, but they did nothing to address the real problem with Dark Knight, at this point I'd really just hope for Manadraw instead of Enliven and/or a reduction in the cost of Dark Arts... MP management is the key to playing Dark Knight well in Feast, it's the difference between being an absolutely terrible waste of a slot, and being OK...

    Totally. Though, at least they are continuing to make adjustments instead of sticking to the typical corporate nonsense of "it's working as intended." That's good. It's also good to see that they're still listening to the feedback. I wasn't expecting any responses to player harassment and third party tools; so, that's a pleasant surprise as well.

    That said, I still see no remarks about PvP gear and the Wolf Mark system. SE, can we PLEASE get some dev feedback on this? I don't think we're asking for a lot when we ask for an actual purpose for Wolf Marks. You update your PvE vendors almost every patch and have added a gear mender to Wolves Den Pier (thanks for that, by the way). Surely it can't be too difficult to make Wolf Marks meaningful and useful.

    I use wolf marks for desynthesis. Gives me skill points and sometimes produces fairly valuable items, such as Astral Oil from the IL 180 SCH/SMN weapons.

    Alternative is just submit the gear pieces to Grand Company for company seals, spend those on ventures, dark matter, consumables or crafting materials.

    Yeah. That has been the common method for using Wolf Marks since they took Morale out of the game, and, quite frankly, it shows just how dumb and inefficient the system is. We are, quite literally, money laundering our own Wolf Marks just so we can use them for something. Wolf Marks should have an immediate value, not a 3 to 4 step conversion process for a diminished return.
