So highlights until Hulkling posts full data #'s (cause he ninja started it
) :
Paladin spell/aa related:
Paladin dps doubles again, undead dps is competitive for the most part with real dps, new nukes, big damage, nice stuff, disc DPS and burn dps go up quite a bit.
Heals, Heals received in most cases 75-100% increase from SoD, big boost on here, emergency heal added, nice spell, kinda long reuse but eh
Aggro tools, standard for most part, new projection, almost doubles the aggro to 210k if it lives, upgraded no fail taunt aa with higher bonus aggro, Beacon rank 2 reuse is reduced to 5 minutes + its aggro doubles, pretty standard outside of this
Tanking tools standard defensive disc now vie absorbs 35% instead of 25%, and we get a 2nd one that is defensive vie absorb + defensive procs heals
Fade, Pacify to level 90, Welcome to being able to pull most of the group game
-14% aggro mod AA, can be kept up on 2 people (extra raid utility ftw
)
Divine Stun is now instant cast and we get a copy of SK Hate Step / Warrior leap, so kite-ing should be a little easier on us
On the topic of undead DPS, unfortunately we hit the max damage cap on a single hit of 65k even tho we can slay up to 97k with new weapons (stacked to the max of course, 7th, etc), like half our nukes got an extra undead DD bonus on it, pretty much doubles the damage vs undead
Content:
Group Content is nicer then UF and SoD, it feels more in the middle of the two instead of all the way on "too hard" or "easy" (for the most part, there is probably a few named with silly abilities that are meh
)
Housing:
Has some neat stuff if you are into that, you dress up house with lots of additional stuff, pets, action figures (they play old school music!)
Graphics:
They added some new graphic capabilities in Post Effects and Bloom, makes EQ look a lot lot nicer. Fantastic stuff if your PC can handle it (eed like a nvidia 6 series+, dunno what equivalent ATI is, iirc to handle it without lag stutters lameness, basically it will hit your FPS by like 5ish, if im off about card needed to be decent
)
Sound:
Music actually seems blah, more so then usual since most of the zones music sounds the same (to me atleast)
Gingerbread Man = best model in game, anyone who disagrees has no soul
Think that's about it
If have questions throw em out
