Thanks Tad,

I love the changes to Unrivalled Rapidity and to Pact of the Wurine and hope they go live.  :-D

Unrivaled rapidity and wurine changes are A++ awesome.

I haven't used the salve line consistently in years, hopefully the cast is short enough that it gets brought back to life.

Yemall and Vaxztn are kind of meh.

Upsetting that Yowl and Paragon(s) didn't get any cast time changes, but promising that we're getting looked at.

You should post this in the eqlive beast forums too Tad so people who don't check here or the test forum can see it.
Beastlord Community Round Table representative.  Feel free to PM me or contact me in game (Drinal.Hzathz) about anything you think needs attention.

Aristo: Just a note on something we just found with the Salve of Reshan changes - while the base heal values were raised, the caps weren't, so there effectively isn't an increase visible right now.  The new caps will be 4411/4786/5036.

I like this response also.

Elidroth: AA and Spells have been done by 2 people as far back as I can remember.

The Beastlord class needs help. We know it, and if you'd search the forums a bit you'd see we've stated as much. I've got a lot planned on the AA side and Aristo is well aware of their needs from a spell standpoint.

Apparently though if we don't reply to every single thread, someone always feels like "The devs are ignoring me" when in fact, a little research shows we're not.

Relay our tremendous thanks please for Wurine and Group Haste.

Pet heal is a def. improvement, though I may still not have it memmed regularly.  I don't know numbers on Focus for sure, but it sounds like it's pretty small from what Camikazi saw on Test so far, so probably far too meh to fix the buff yet.
TURNCOAT!!!!!

compared to Mage Pet Heals I believe its better

Any hope this could be the start of consolidating our pet heals and focusing on 1 or 2 lines instead of just continually added new bleah ones?

Quoted for emphasis.  Get rid of Friendly Pet, get rid of Pet HoT.  Keep fast heal, and promised.  Hell, w/ a 1sec cast, get rid of promised too, and just drop recast slightly on Salve line, and boost healing another 20ish%.

A 1% boost to focus and a 4% boost to pet heal.  Are they for real?

Haste recourse is 26 min, you just have extension AAs which raised it to 39 min.

I disagree on getting rid of Friendly Pet.  True, as it is now even after the attempted fix it is worthless, but the concept is a good one.  Fix it so that it works as intended and heals the warder's target's target and we'll have something worth having.  Push for the fix, don't trash it.

Don't get rid of Promised either.  I would rather have it as an option than see it go away.

Its a positive start, many thanks for that :)

Now, about salve.. can you do the same with Cadmaels' please.
Can we have a 60 minut haste ?
Can we get a much larger % on Yemall please .. or bloodworg (good call).

plus everything else on the shopping list, and a moon on a stick.
thanks :)
