Having to be cryptic is no fun at all.

I think that I get away with just saying that I expect enough to change that most of our prior quibbles will seem rather irrelevant.

A point that was made to us several times was that this was the Combat Revamp and not the GCW Revamp. So as far as extended GCW fixes and roles, this isn't when we will get that. Having said that I think that Swordsmen are likely to have a much better defined overall combat role and that PvP fighting will play a big part in balancing this.

Hmm. How to answer that one?

In general I expect a lot of movement weapons-wise and I see good things happening for the Hack but that will be a detail that we'll have to keep pounding on come Sandbox time.

That's not to say we didn't talk about quite a number of other things. Indeed I and the other corrs were able to corner devs for our own more specific and even non-combat issues all throughout weekend. But the combat revamp is definitely what's on the plate now. Hey, at least we didn't talk about Hawtpants the whole summit. *shudder*

*cloaks thread from the Hawtpants squad*
