Does anyone have any idea what is the Enchanted Throw problem this announcement is talking about?

PS: And the Fruit of Growth is probably about the compensation for players who have used shop items to upgrade "Fruit of Growth"?

Oh my. But according to what TWMXC was writing despite the fact that you cannot level this skill, for those who leveled it before the change the skill is still working. Once you use reset ticket it becomes a total useless cr*p.

I don't mind a free reset ticket. Just R/M's be warned - you are better off _not_ using it, it seems.

(And a proper fix would be to simply make the skill levelable again without any change of the mechanics behind it, and simply update the tooltip instead - despite a misleadingly empty description, leveling ET was working, had a desired effect and ... seems to be still working for those who had it leveled and did _not_ use a reset ticket)

Clarification to clarification: We are NOT talking about direct extra dmg from ET on top of white attacks (this one works as you describe)! We ARE talking about reflected dmg from passive Vengeance Sting.

How it used to work - there is no discussion about, I think (see, e.g. Rogue/Mage: Setting things clear about its elites thread for example). When R/M got attacked and had ET on, Vengeance Sting dealt back to the attacker dmg being exactly the same as lvl0 Throw, irrespective of your level of Throw. You could level ET and what it did was it increased the reflected dmg from Vengeance Sting - if ET was on lvl XX, then Vengeance Sting dealt to the attacker dmg the same as Throw on lvl XX.

This indeed was not mentioned in the tooltips of ET. Unless you played R/M yourself, if you simply read all the tooltip it seemed as if leveling ET was a waste of TPs and a plain bug. That's probably why it got "fixed" by not allowing to level it anymore.

R/Ms tested and knew better - leveling ET was actually useful! That's why there was a lot TP sank into this skill, and that's why when ET got not-upgradable it became an issue at all (if leveling ET was as useless as you claim noone sane would have put TPs in it in the first place!).

What TWMXC is saying is that once you use the reset ticket your Vengeance-Sting reflected dmg will be stuck at lvl0 throw.

Quoted from "Borella"

Reset everyones tp, and keep it unlevellable.

Yes, it would be fair as it would put all R/M on the same level.

On the other hand - the change which made ET not levelable does NOT seem like an intentional nerf. Probably someone got mislead by the empty tooltip . The whole mechanics is still behind it. So simply just making ET levelable again would be another solution. If you keep the dmg of vengeance sting at "throw 0lvl" then it becomes quite a useless skill - and it is elite, it should change your situation imho.

(And, no, I still have not reset TP. I did not have ET maxed up, but still - I kind of like what it does to people who want to hurt me. So, obviously, I'm not a big fan of a forced TP reset... )
