Being able to link tactics change to stance change would be pretty sweet. I concur.

I have four different tactic sets on my Shadow Warrior, and two or three on my Knight. None of those are for PvE. I shift mine up depending on if I’m in a group, solo, ORvR, and scenarios. How I use tactics is: I choose my loadout based on what it is I’m about to do, or maybe who I know I’m about to face (scenarios).

If I was able to change them on the fly, I can’t imagine the insane leap in power I would have. Able to determine in mid field is a game-breaking strength. When I choose on my SW between Replenishing Strikes, Powerful Draw, No Respite, Keen Arrowheads, Wrist Slash, and Masterful Aim, I’m making tough decisions. If I could shift in combat, I could optimize to the Nth degree for power.

I rarely changed my tactics, one for pvp. one for pve. But in the end all i did was pvp so tactics never changed at all.

I was thinking we should have 2 tactics bars, a primary and a secondary, on the UI at the same time (both chosen from the shortlist of 5). Only the primary bar would take effect, but they could be swapped in combat with a 5min cooldown (or thereabouts).

[...] do you guys think? Aside from people that complain that there is mystery to their opponents, what other things could go horribly [...]

They really need to just make it an option for players to toggle. If I feel comfortable with my abilities and judgement of opponents no matter their appearance, then I can toggle it, if not, I’ll leave it off. Forcing it to be universal across both realms would neglect the higher level meta-gaming intrinsic to this PvP game.

It makes sense, but I proposed a compromise that would have something just as visual or more so then particular armour pieces. I am of the opinion that too much information is shown about who you are fighting. I like the mystery like back with DAOC.

Or you simply look at the RR-buffs people get when reaching rr65/75/80.
Seems to be alot easier,and it’s already implemented in the game,so rejoice ;D

Comment on Character customization great, but needs to be seen by all – warhammer online by Squiggsboson

How about just making it an opt in switch? You as a player should be able to decide if you want the “opportunity” to be fooled by the other realm. I’m willing to bet over time you would see an 80-90% participation rate. At which point, mythic could make it universal.

I’d go for it, that’s for sure. And judging by the character of the upper echelon destro on Gorfang, I think most of them would too.
