My previous post was deleted, simply for agreeing with this comment. Tragic state of affairs.

Wholeheartedly agree with this. Admittedly, my only concern is for blue line, I never intended to play the other two. And blue line is better off on BR4, than it is on live, in most situations. But...

No changes, no communication, only a bugged trait (Valour) which heals for far more than it should. Very exciting stuff.

"Getting feedback"? Maybe you should inform yourself before you decide to post your opinions. The captain dev regularly answers questions through the discord server, which is not an official LotRO...

This is an absolutely ridiculous proposition. The fact of the matter is that, if you visit the Captain channel, you will see the exact same names trying to ridicule "dissenting" (from their...

Do SSG publicly announce that their developers engage with (very specific parts of) the community on an unofficial discord? No. Do SSG moderate said discord? No.

The discord server in question has...

Newsflash: nobody cares about 1v1 balance.

Freeps don't run out of power? How about when you put WL banner + Rabid Bite + spider drains? Did you test that?

At least your clear bias is evident...

Blue Captain Feedback for BR3

In the previous Bullroarer build, blue captain's self-healing was very weak. With Valiant Strike being changed back to its original form, as well Reform the Lines...

It is absolutely impossible for reavers (and possibly other creeps too) to run out of power, so it does not seem like the power changes made any difference there. Moreover, freeps do not have power...

I disagree with this twofold, even though I agree with the general premise.


It is a big deal. The initial heal is twice the size of a HoT tick. You definitely want to have that available on...

Ironically, this is the reason OnnMacMahal gave for adding Defensive Strike, and changing Valiant Strike to no longer activate Battle-readied. Only to put us in the exact same scenario, with a...

In PvE, it's not going to matter much that the heal moved to a melee skill. In PvMP, which is my primary concern, it's a terrible change. You will literally not be able to survive a single...

Let me give an example of why the change to the self-heal is so poorly thought out. This will involve PvMP, because it highlights the flaws of the design so easily. PvMP combat typically involves...

When I said "making Defensive Strike actually do something defensive", this is just about the opposite of what I had in mind. The result of this change, is that we have to be in melee combat even to...

Or, much simpler: anyone who runs through the banner's area has a HoT applied to them, which they carry with them even after leaving the banner's radius. That way, it still rewards strategic...

I seem to recall being in combat when I tested this. But I'll try to reproduce it in the next Bullroarer build.



You are right, and this identity is part of what I enjoy about the spec, so I am...

In my mind, I listed four: SotD, IHW, RtL, Banner. When utilised to their full potential, these are all very strong cds on BR. However, the cooldowns are too long, and in case of IHW and Banner, the...

I don't want to have to disagree, but I think it is important to paint an accurate picture so that our legitimate complaints are heard, and not drowned out by a barrage of other minor gripes. So I...

The Bullroarer version of blue captain does not pump AoE HPS as the live version does. Valiant Strike is no longer AoE (except during Reform the Lines).

I actually think the healing kit that we...

Yes, I am inclined to agree. At least the blue line changes are largely positive. It is pointless to try to give one's own list of preferred changes as compared to the live version of blue captain;...

It is now showing as the amount regenerated per second, instead of per minute. That's why you now see 211k/60=3.5k.

Astute observation. Seeing the same thing.

The Abysmal Survivability of Blue Captains

Before I show my examples, a few notes to make.

Unfortunately, it appears I was hovering my mouse over some specific abilities in some screenshots....

No changes to blue captain going from BR1 to BR2. No acknowledgement of the numerous concerns. Nothing.

The bugfix for Valiant Strike apparently did not work; if I use Valiant Strike without a...

I would request that a forum moderator remove all the pointless commentary about individual experiences at previous level caps, and further irrelevant posts (including this one). It's not...
