What happened to my poor drake hound?
I understand the changes to the rune due to magic find becoming account wide, but unlike all the other runes, this one is a completely different rune!
The entire line has changed, condition damage and might duration? That seems like such an odd combination, and then you go a remove the drake hound, a rather interesting and somewhat unique effect.
I had them on my ranger and personally loved having multiple “pets” out at the same time, and I can say that having both my pet and the drake hound out saved me more than once since the hound attacked with my pet or attacked while my pet could heal me.
I know that the change to remove magic find was needed, but the rest of the change just seems random.
The other runes you changed are at least similar to their old functionality, and the changes work well together.
Pirate is now power and might. Great. (plus a summon, I might add)
Scavenging is now condition damage and life steal with a vitality to condition damage boost. Makes sense.
And although the rune of the Traveler is also completely changed I doubt there is anyone complaining about the 20 point drop to vitality given they are getting a 30 point boost to everything else and a whopping 25% permanent speed boost.
And the Rune of the Noble is now a rather odd combination of Condition damage and might?
Just curious why the decision was made.
It is what it is, and I guess I am now in the market for new runes.
