I've seen what's in each publish, but I've no idea what the dates are for any of them. Anyone know if there's a list of dates for each publish and mini publish?

06/08 - Publish 9
06/22 - Publish 9.1
07/06 - Publish 9.2
07/20 - Publish 10
08/03 - Publish 10.1

Like i said those dates are guesses, albeit educated ones. SOE have given no official dates that I have seen.

Just remember, the cb has just as good a chance of sucking as not sucking so don't get your hopes up.

No clue when it'll actually come. But I suspect you'll know because you'll see the devil buying gloves and a coat.

It's coming, it really is! It's not a myth!


And it's also true that we don't want overinflated hopes. It's a leap in the right direction, not the end-all.

After all the delay it almost should be ...

The one really good thing that will come out of the combat balance (apart from all the professions hopefully being near enough equal in worth) is that they'll still have this 'sand box' TH keeps referring to to test things out in. Nolonger will you see one profession worked on only to see it completely outclasses everything else afterwards, as they'll be able to test everything along side each other again and again to make sure things remain balanced.


One might think this should have been implemented at the start, but then hindsight's a wonderful thing.

I am not sure how you think you have 2 months till you start being able to kill everything in the game. Things will not get easier after the balance. It will become harder for players to solo the entire game. Rumor is (from a update that accidently slipped out onto Testcenter from my understanding) is that armor will be capped at roughly 70-75% tops. So if you think things will become easier for you, reality might be different.
