Thread: 5.08 Patch Notes up

I'm not seeing how people think that summoner change is a buff. You still have to keep dots up as much as possible. Summoner neither gained nor lost DPS with its change.

They will never buff us :,(

SMN actually got nothing. The only thing that changed is that you don't need to add Bio and Miasma first on the target for full potency of Ruin, but rotation-wise you still want to do that anyway.

It does mean that if you're a few seconds away from Tri-Disaster being available again, and or DoTs fall off and you don't realise, your Ruin potency isn't severely diminished on top of missing out on the DoT damage.

It may be more of a benefit for average players than top-level ones, but it's a benefit nevertheless. I'm sure they intended it to be encouragement to keep DoTs up but instead it's punishment if you forget.

Didnt know Housing for spriggan and twin was going up live today lol.

Because of Vercure and Verraise. RDM's ability to save from a wipe and decently heal in dungeons in a pinch is too powerful apparently.

Just for FCs though. Let the mansion/medium house bloodbath begin! I wonder how much FCs w/ house and relocation sales are going to be going for in the next few days.

Yeah i like unexpected warning! Im rdy to grab one

So NIN gained around 10% more potency on their combo skills (Except for Shadow Fang which got a beefy 40% boost to its DoT portion) and Bunshin's damage went up by about 33%.

I think that should easily makes them competitive again.
