Alpha was opened briefly yesterday and a lot of people got to see a ton of changes that Trion is playing with. The following are changes that has been brought to Rogues. Read it carefully to get what you have been looking for a long time! Meanwhile this post will be updated as more things are reported. There are also no patch notes on Alpha currently. Also remember that all of this is subject to change at a moments notice. We’ll try to keep it updated until there are official Alpha patch notes.
Updates:
1:07pm EST 4/21/2011
Right now all sin/bd skills that were 50% ap bonus, are 100%. Backstab is much higher damage, but 6 sec cd. Serpent strike got a significant damage boost, and now 8 sec cooldown.
Marksman:
-The lower level pedestal is now 20% dmg , but the 51 pt one also says 20% so i’m not really sure what the actual values are.
-Sniper training is +15% dmg to empowered/deadeye.
-Close quarters combat is passive.
-Bullseye is not a root, and its cd is included in Rapid Extrication.
-Strafe gets an additional 20% dmg when standing on a pedestal.
-Rapid Fire Shot is completely different. It does not apply a buff, but shoots once per combo point. So 5 combo points = 5 hits.
-New Ability: Eradicate which is an offensive purge.
Assassins:
This is a direct comparison of 1.1 on live to Alpha with 51 pts in Assassin and nothing in anything else wearing no gear.
SUMMARY: It appears the souls overall dps factor got a very slight increase (~1.7%) with some abilities getting an additional boost.
