What do you think Jon will change in July? (in General)
My guesses?
1 - Armor Allowance on the NW/PR link-up (maybe other small tweaks)
2 - ToBF boost...
3 - Another small X-bow buff
4 - DM blockin' hat (likely not... but I can hope.)
5 - I think another ToE change may occur.. likely to help multi minion teams.
What I don't think you'll see.....
1 - Removal of the NW/PR link.
2 - Direct nerfing of DM or FF/FB
3 - Removal of the NUB
/me thinks he just made the most obvious post in history.

I think Jon will make a new sound sensitive system for bot checks that involves clapping, stomping, whistles, and snapping your fingers. Well, I can hope as least.
I don't think NW/PR link will be removed. NW/PR link is still a fresh change, do you think Jon will change it again or remove it in a quite short time? If yes, that means that NW/PR change is a kind of experiment.
Removal of NUM? Probably some modification of NUM will make it more acceptable.
ToBF boost? Could be nice, but not so many players interested in it.
/me ready to upset after put ToBF in auction.

That power shield category is looking pretty empty.....

If he does change the NW/PR linkage then there will be alot of mad people as of happy. Most people ended up selling most of there high NW items and may want them back if the change occurs. I dont see any point in the NW / PR change but its there for a reason, so it will proably stay.

maybe Jon should make an ranged weapon with hp drain?
ablative shield familair :) percentage to miss on spells (like magic has 100% to hit, even if you would jump away with your 1000000000000000000 dexterity :S)

Ranged weapon with HP drain? Sounds like an Elven Long Bow to me. When I hit people with it, their Hp drains a ton. =P
Adrian,
I didn't say the link would be removed... read my post again.
What you should have said is it SHOULD be removed Chocolate, but that is another discussion. I think to further along the idea Aco put forth, how about a ranged weapon in the ex/ax bow vein that targets the highest HP having minions.

Removal of PS category. there is no need you cant put an MgS on a ToE mage and a BoM on a ToA tank wont have that large an impact since they only add to base ST
Note the current PS would become regular shields

A MgS on ToE will make a very strong defensive combo as much as a ToI on a ToE in offensive.
*shuddering of the thought*
Would be neat if Jon introduced item(s) that would help make a complete set of armor, as discussed in some previous thread. Full elven gear would be nice to start off with.

Full elven gear, that's just what we need for the weak ELB-archers.
Tank, wall, mage, enchanter sets would be nice as decoration though if you can spare the PR.

Me roots for a X-Bow buff! Either make the non-stat altering X-Bows easier to upgrade, or introduce a new x-bow. (something I made a post about a while back)
And for that matter why not a sling buff too, and really shake things up. Give people a reason to use explosive shots.

I don't think he gonna do a darn thing to the NUB or NW/PR. And when he doesn't, I'm gonna stand up on a soap box and look down on you people laughing who spent serious time out of your lives complaining!
Uhmm... I mis-spelled NUB. ;) What a newb I am.
removal of the ELB, more Power Shields, and making me an admin :)
I will go out on a limb here and say....diapers! In July Jon will change many, many diapers.

Babies diapers is the only absolute change for July

/me chuckles at all the people thinking a TOE mage with an MgS would be deadly.
Boy, I bet that Fireball packs a mean punch when it's negated! ;)
Undertow, Jon already made one change to the NUB, so there.

wasn't that change just a bug that was fixed???
You can call it a bug if you like, but it was pointed out on May 16th...

Something i have noticed, is that in auctions if you click past <insert a tattoo name here> then it has serveral kinds of tats (due to people using the TA to change them) and not just thaqt one type, this can cause confusing, and im guessing it will be fixed.

As long as there are changes to screw Ranger and Sefton, then all will be as it should be, right?

Everyone from CB1 knows that any changes will be made to give Todd an unfair advantage. =)

I think the changes will revolve around people getting banned who open a thread for something that is already getting complained about it another thread.

I think that DM will either get weakened or like CT said some kind of blocking hat for DM or blocking gloves or a shield specified for enchanters only would be greatÂ…
or
FB will get weakened a little the FB DM teams are really showing everybody up or
another small blocking armor for FB that isn't as strong as the old CoBF or doesn't have the mele damage effect as the old CoBF and isn't a tat...
wow that is jumbled but I think some of you get my point (bastie please no corrections on the grammar I am terrible)

Make an anti-DM corn that has -25% to enchantments. You sacrifice 1/4 of your enchanter's power to guarantee they will always be able to cast. It would be a worthwhile tradeoff for some.
