ImO there are too many people crying here who are no real PvPers aand now are afraid that they can't even show off their "skillz" in PvM coz' UT-Lvling and Hammer-Only-Baalbots will be gone as well...
I mean: What did you all expect?
- Content (items, runwewords, etc) update on PTR? ofc not...
- The things they changed are all okay... Light Sorcs will not be viable for PvP anymore, but seriously they were not good in PvP before as well...
- Hammers were not changed for PvP, but they are not overpowered there either... Hammers have some semi-bad to bad match-ups, so what is your problem?
- Good that they changed that immunity-ignoring Damage thing though... You will need more than a Hammer to run Baalbots now. Hopefully they raise some Monster-Resistances as well (especially in CS and WSK) to prevent Light-Sorc-Botting... (they are still very good in PvM, regardless of changed Light Mastery...)...
- Hydra is now a little more viable to chose for Vita FBers, since due to more Dmg and Speed it can act a little better as a tactigal "guide" for the Sorc's opponents... it will not kill anyone on its own, but it will hurt a little more in PvP and possibly give us some new build for PvM... again, nothing to cry about...
- The "new" super-quest is kind of nice... Respec is really cool to have. Especially with UTs gone I wonder how many of you would even be QQing more when they found out that they mis-skilled something and had to re-do their chars and start CSing and BRing all over again... again, this feature is completely PRO PvP (imagine you find that godly 30 STR or 20 DEX / 60 Life Ammy for your Pally/Sorc that you had been looking for finally and can make use of it and gain Life instantly by respeccing and wearing it instead of your old one... I mean all PvPers cry about having to re-do chars over and over, so this is a decent solution...
- Only problem
They should take Baal's item away and give them to AI - AIV bosses only, so Classic gets this quest as well...
