I've been out for about a month on business -- miss the game, I must say -- and I haven't had a chance to load the PTS or read up on any of the new material. Any changes for dwarfs in the next update, especially annoying debuffs? Would it make them too uber to give warsmiths an "unravel" skill that causes any crafted item equipped by an enemy (armor or weapon) to break, atomize, and/or be reduced to pixie dust??? You can use the same animation as spoil if it makes it easier to implement. More mischief by dorfs is what this game needs! :)

Warsmith got nice buffs already....we BHs are the ones in need of at least some love !!!!
if WS is a ~buffer now, may be NCSoft could make BH into a debuffer, kinda like WC vs OL.
may be using spoil will decrease enemy armors, or slow atk speed, or do less dmg, or weak vs blunt... something along that line.
Well, OE'd spoil and spoil festival are sorta that already. You can choose between windshackle, DOT, or surrender to earth I think (WS here so not positive). Of course you have to be lvl76+ to even touch those 'debuffs', and they are of debatable usefulness. And then there is stun/armorcrush which are considered debuffs too...at least by NC's mentality.
I do like the idea of BH becoming the 'debuffing' opposite of the Warsmith though. If they were given some starting from the 40 level range (equal to WS buffs) then it would be very cool. They certainly could use the help when it comes to Olympiad, no one would argue that.

I'd like to be able to spoil in pvp.. that would absolutely rock... very first day I would run around spoiling every bot on the planet. So many BH would come out of the woodworks that all of Aden would look like a 4th of July fireworks display with all the bot spoiling going on.
Wow... I may have come up with a solution to the bot problem... player based bot police via pvp spoil festival.
/spoil festival bot train
/kill bot train
/sweeper bot 1
