This is the punishment for not joining #Slack. We brought this on ourselves!

this crikey guy is emo full blast. Who makes a 5 choice poll when 2 options work?
And the bola weight change is great. You really shouldn't be able to stock 10+ bolas and just chain them until somebody is dead. Carrying 3-4, and using them wisely before you have to restock is a much better option for the trade off being able to dismount people.

Just trying to cover all the bases
2 choices wouldnt work. A third choice of "it doesnt matter" was needed to weed out the people who dont matter
I put in the "like", "greatly like" etc choices in for fun

if the person didn't care, they wouldn't vote. By definition, an option of 'it doesn't matter' is purely redundant.
yes/no works perfectly fine. Perhaps you should make a poll to decide which of us is right. /s

Gm O told me no more trolling polls, otherwise I would
Anyways.....yeah, no need. What you posted makes sense.
I just figured some tram would barge in and click one of the options just to participate (when their opinion is trash)

It's still valuable research for the staff. Great work, keep the dialog going. There seems to be a new trend, where staff is actually listening and making updates.Gm O told me no more trolling polls, otherwise I would

Just take your typical loadout and downsize it across the board by ratio, except for cure and strength potions since they're there to counter poison/weaken spam.
As for bolas, I can't imagine holding more than one at this point with spares on the beetle: it only takes one bola to dismount an ethereal rider and it usually only takes one to either kill or severely damage someone's horse. If the option is to carry 12 more potions or a single extra bola, I think I'd take the potions considering that running out of a potion type generally means you're done PVPing. It's also easier to make a macro that restocks bolas from a beetle than one to restock an array of potions.
While the shitty potion weight change will probably be reverted, I wouldn't be surprised if the bola changes stick around simply because people have little sympathy for bola tamers, even though these changes will have virtually no impact on the efficacy of the build. But hey, I'm a pessimist.

yeah that's pretty much what I've been doing. cut my regs/pots in half and carry only 1 bola/spares on beetle

I concur with everything mentioned here.

This should have already been changed back... I've seen ZERO positive feedback about the change and it STILL hasn't been fixed.

In the past, I felt that having stacked potions counting as 1 item was a very poor change. It enabled people to have unlimited cure pots, as well as greatly increased the amount of explodes people started carrying.
Not sure yet whether this accomplishes the same purpose in a better or worse way. I probably would have liked to see item count for potion stacks restored to fully counting all potions.

This is a very unique opinion. We have done this to a certain extent with BOD books.
Hybrid, you guys are killing it in this thread with your input. It's some of the healthiest discussion I've seen on these forums in some time.
Thank you all, you guys rock!

Making potions unstacked adds tedium to the restocking, crafting, and looting processes, and it would give rise to the exact same complaints that are being made about the current potion weight change. No one has made an argument why it's important to quickly run out of supplies if frivolously used in the field. I could see some potential value to it if most combat occurred in dungeons where it's somewhat more difficult to escape combat, but this is not the case.
