i still don't see a huge dif in winning or losing when these adjustments get put into place.
The duration of Embrava is a big deal. Even if the TP was removed (it's going to be) the massive regen that lasts for half of a NNI run is what allows DD's to just pummel all the mobs without issue. They get massive regen from gen5 and Embrava combined. Now they won't have that since Embrava's regen (the bigger of the two and a large chunk of hp/tick) won't be lasting nearly as long.
Not to derail a thread i've already sorta derailed, i'm just wondering why so many people fear this change. just for fun my ls has done adl's with no embrava or pd and while it wasn't the easiest fight we still win. Aside from Legion i really can't think of a event that the nerf will hurt.

Effect duration will be reduced from five minutes to ninety seconds. I assume they are referring to the caster?
With full perp it will last 3 mins and 45 sec (210 sec) instead of 12 mins and 30 sec if i'm correct. Talikng about embrava and not tabula rasa.
They allready showed they can choose to make embrava do certain things in certain zones, why wouldnt they leave embrava as it is for NNI and change it for other stuff
Further to that point, people with NNI gear could win at NNI without Embrava but we have been playing with groups that will stil win 80% of time after update if it is epic bad
Anyway i'm not here to argue i was truly interested in the whole nerf fear, my ls complains but the more we discuss the less we care. Legion for us will be a new plan but other events i just can't see a difference in the fight aside maybe 1 loss out of a 7 adl spam night...
Well I don't know about these programs which can determine where mobs are. I know I have windower and I use fillmode. Lamps aren't even a problem as long as it's not a 5 lamps order floor.
Using Windower alone just to display the game in a windowed mode (official SE windower lags for me) isn't cheating. That is why there is Windower lite with no commands, plugins, or scripts.
So, as someone who does not understand .dat replacing and just made a new account a few months ago and currently has no access to a dedicated NNI group, is it safe to say I will not be seeing a single piece of Thaumas in my inventory, or am I vastly overestimating the difficulty of the event?
