Most likely the move was to be more organized and avoid general chat being flooded with bartering related threads.
The Good: Both DS and Damien for having the most character depth; the latter being a great example of a MS villain done right. Very well written backstory told similarly to a Greek tragedy.
The Bad: Dr. Gelimer and Arkarium.
Ugh, these despicable pair are hell bent on ruining as many lives as possible for the sake of seeking/maintaining power. What is worse, both (supposedly) meet an end that is all too good for them and w/o any interaction with player. If we have to go above and beyond cleaning up their atrocities, is it too much to ask in letting us pound at least one nail in their boiling tar filled coffins?.
The Ugly: Princess Violetta... just... *shutters* It's a toss up between the fake "Damsel in Distress" troupe or her face resembling a melting Arnold Schwarzenegger wax figure at Madame Tussaud.
Here we see yet another example of broken boss mechanics; assuming Ark's screen crack falls under the dreaded %HP based category (multiplied by 100 for full HP depletion).
The problem is the players no longer have any form of counter skills or abilities to work around with. Even the HP formidable Paladins, Heavens Door Bishops, and Holy Magic Shell Priests have lost any and all form of utility to such poorly planned designs.
Give us back our heal. Turn back the clock 3 years (almost exactly to this date) when RED launched; back to when heal was at it's finest moment as a staple to clerics as a versatile tool. Sporting a branding effect for squeezing out our already abysmal dps, no more cooldowns, and no need to be standing at point blank range for restoring a sliver of a wounded party member's HP.
Kinda' defeats the purpose of having a healing class when they can't even properly treat a paper cut until well into their 3rd job class.
