2761, Class XP Penalties
Posted by Daevryn on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Somewhat counterbalancing low level former-0-penalty classes no longer having a level advantage to lord over the higher penalty characters, the following changes have been made (coming next crash/reboot):

- Spellcraft is a little more front-loaded. That is to say, it gives more of its bonus earlier but is similar around hero.
- Weave of Elements, Nether Protection, and Arcane Absorbtion are now available at level 20 and have a duration that's more front-loaded than previous.
- Most of the former 0-penalty classes get parry (and where applicable, shield block) earlier than before.
- A-P lightning bolt is very slightly weaker at low levels. Invoker lightning bolt is unchanged.
- Wrath is slightly weaker at lower levels. At higher levels it is as current.
- Ambush deals less damage at lower levels. At higher levels it is as current.
- Shield jab and shield mastery effectiveness scale slightly with level now, being somewhat less effective at lower levels.

There's still more tweaking to do but this is the start.
