I could be mixing up ammunition with arrows, but does it look like archers might be using MP for ammunition? Who knows.

Haha and just now noticing a similar thread. Good morning me.

That Blindside attack has me worried about more gear swaps and crap.

[Levian]

How do you get gear swaps from that? Just looks to me like Pugilist is the new thief.

Hmm...missed that part. Here's hoping that's not as ominous as it looks. I never did care for the whole gear swapping bit.

[Kasim]

Gosh, I hope they get rid of anything that makes you have to gear swap. I just don't like the idea. Yes of course I did it because it made it easier and LS require it but they should come up with something better and change the mechanics. Not fully, but to some extent I am a roleplayer (in my own mind, kinda) so I just really hated swapping my gear like it's nothing and physically totally normal.

[renzuko]

thats one of the few, realistic things about wow...you can re-organize your bags in battle and you cant change shit in battle, unlike 11, where blu was a gear swap fest -.-;;

[Levian]

It's not really the impracticality of it that bugged me. It's a game, I don't hold it up to RL standards. It's just my personal opinion that a well designed set of gear should come standard with the stats you need to do your job effectively. It shouldn't have been a necessity to carry at minimum 2 sets of gear for a single role.
