No.. no it will change, it won't be like that

we promise, sure you have double tps, but we promise it will be easy

your warrior seemed like warclaidhm in hunting, a fucking farmer being owned

I realize the formula changed so that PT is the only primary now, but does that account for a roughly 40% drop?

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for getting rid of redux entirely. It was a band aid, and I'm hoping it won't be needed anymore. Just wish they'd provide some documentation on it.

EDIT: Uhh, heh, wasn't hunting per say, was just taking hits to test out dux.
