#42187, "Best. Santa Zulg. Ever."
Edited on Thu 29-Dec-11 11:15 PM

I'd play again if this happened, I'd have no one to blame but myself at that point.
Unfortunately, that still means whatever switch he coded is likely going to leave damage-reduction cabal powers in place, Deathblow (either DB or resist would have to disappear along with such a switch), and it will take months to properly rebalance anything that can do over 500 damage in a single round. Cheap shot will either have to not exist, or be nerfed below orc-level effectiveness without fly potions. Permanent barrier and sanctuary too aren't likely to be removed from high level mobs anytime soon. Paladins will no longer have to worry about anyone meeting or beating their damage reduction, they can pretty much put any group of people behind them and automatically accomplish almost any cabal raid with a minimum of effort with the correct virtues and proper mana management. Word and teleport will still be in the game as well.
Still, A/B/S, desensitize, element specific dam redux, stone skin, and haste all going the way of the dodo would make things plenty interesting in spite of the above. Good players may still get kills, but they will die more and be unable to park it in obscure areas and hiding places as often. Not really all that worried about them permagrouping if it's possible to down the dangerous players in two rounds of a well coordinated strike.
For the record, I have that text file too, but you have yet to see me play any particularly dangerous mages because I don't have the patience or time to really make use of that list. This is a net positive, dump the preps in order to scatter more progging gear around the world with various effects including (but not stacking with) the original prep effects.
