    The change to Unyielding is a great idea, but someone forgot about the Stone tankers. Rooted is our only status protection until level 32, and it apparently isn't getting changed to a mobile power. Are we to be stuck to the ground until 32 while the Inv and Fire and Ice tankers roam free?

    I'm not begrudging the Inv people their improvements, but Rooted needs a change too for balance! It's not even as though it provides +res like Unyielding. Its side effect (improved health regen) is not combat effective.

    Please, Statesman... let the poo men move around! Stone is already the inferior stepchild of Invuln because +def is flat out less effective than +res. Don't make us stand still for 32 levels!

    Thanks.

    Actually, up until 32 u can do Quite well with properly slotted rock armor and timly use of rooted. I don't ever really recall cursing to all hell becuase I was not mobile and protected. Most u have to worry about early on anyways is smash/leathal type knockdowns and CoT based fire stuns. Both can be handled pretty well.
    Poo...It took me 2 levels to become un-parinoid enough to stop using root all the time.

    Face it, stone tanks are really fair and balanced for a primary set. I even love that granite end is getting reduced and sped up (notice its movement and not recharge..Oh darn).

    We're working (or more precisely our wunder-programmer Martin) on a change to melee combat that will enable you to hit runners. No more angling just in front of the fleeing foe - yep - you can punch him from behind!

    We hope to get this into Update 3, but it needs testing. But I thought you'd like to know.

    All I ask is that it works from /follow distance...please

    That is when /follow cant get anycloser, no matter how fast your running
