[PaolOh]

Lassa stare. daranno un paio di utility ai druid che se no non li usa nessuno (perche' dopo li useranno un casino...)
Ora hanno dato anche una specie di link con la riduzione del 30% dei danni al necromancer...metti due necromancer sui tank e il defiler e' inutile perche' probabilmente fara' la meta' dei danni.

Tocchera' fare tutti i purifier e i warden e sperare nei fight dove si puo' andare melee per la shaman oppure diventare tutti tank.

[mammuttina]

si ma al cleric non cambiano mai niente?

[PaolOh]

come al solito tra le 3 e le 4 presumo
