Hi, I'm not sure if this is intentional (doubtful) but lightning bolt on sorcerer doesn't give overwhemling force buff, like lightning strike does, which I think it should.

That may be the case, but it's a fact that I'm dealing about half the damage I was yesterday... And my gear has barely changed my ambushes aren't even critting above 20k, and even if it's intended it's a stupid intention, yes you can get all this gear and you can parse your dps but in actual raids guess what it isn't what it's supposed to be, why? Cause **** you that's why is essentially the vibe I'm getting from bioware, I know for a fact that if this remains I'll be unsubbing, they tried this once before (I forget when) and it failed then, it'll fail now. I really want to give bioware the benefit of the doubt, but this is unplayable for me, makes me feel like this gearing is pointless since I can't see the numbers I'm doing, or aiming to earn, it really isn't that hard to scale everything up to 75 so they should just do that and avoid this issue in its entirety...

All MM FPs and OPs are scaled to level 70 and not 75, this is a huge bug and currently makes gear pointless.

Reputation items are automatically consumed when accepting rewards now

I've been looking forward to this expansion, ignoring all the RNG and what not I thought it would be a decent system to liven up the game, my issue isn't with any of the new gearing systems. My issue is that all raids that I've checked besides from Dxun are now level 70 and scale down anyone higher level, which essentially means that all of your gear that you get for raiding is pretty much useless and just gets discarded and you're forced to use whatever the scaledown decides. Bioware please update all the operations to level 75 and get rid of the scaledown it's gonna hurt raiding a lot if it doesn't.

So australian players can't play in the day then? I'm sorry but they don't actually care about anyone but american players

There needs to be a cap on stealthers and healers in an arena should be at max 1 tank and 1 healer to keep fights actually winnable.
