Thread: Fencer CU testers...help grab the developers attention
I liked fencer for the defenses. I tested pikeman and hated it. So I'll be strictly crafting from now on. I know this isn't what you wanted to hear, but I had to vent. I LOVED fencer pre-CU. Oh well...

I sent a lot of PM's to the devs, themselves, on alot of Fencer issues, particularly the bleeds. To me, Bleed Attack seemed more like a animation that didn't do sh!t, than actually did a bleeding attack. As a CU Alpha Tester, it seemed like what I posted got lost in the shuffle of all the other posts, hence the PM's, which seemed to do nothing, either.
Like Tal, I'm sticking around cause I feel I owe folks here something. I've been a Fencer for a few years, now, and hopefully I can do some good around here, post-CU.
Its pretty clear that they are swamped at this point....I mean, the game is turning into a 100% new one....and here are profession doesn't even have a correspondant?
It sounds like their requests for input is just for show.
Usually I'm always defending the developers to the naysayers...but this is saddening

I asked Minerunner what he knew of his replacement and he didn't answer or he hasn't read the PM yet. Either way, Bleeds is something I would classify as something that needed a bit more developing of. They are truely pathetic... and then call us a DOT role. If Our primary role is DoT, then it should be a real DoT. A Heavier Bleed.
In all honesty, there was 1 thing I feared about hunting Nightsisters and SMC's... and that was there UNBELIEVABLE bleeds. I wouldn't want something that potent, but I'd love to see the bleeds be a VERY feared adversary.
Whether I get Nominated or the others that have applied for the position, It needs to be addressed seriously and professionally. I've been crunching some numbers and 100-200% increase sounds fair for being a DOT role.
Has anyone tested the Bleeds in Groups to see if Potency was increased or decreased?
I am also trying to put together a guide to the POST CU Fencer Role and I still a bit of help. I know alot of you Veteran Fencer's are busy testing for your own purposes, but as being fencers in a community without a Correspondent. We need to work together.
