super happy to have components finally be on pengu :3 love this patch so far

So the reason why the rosewood blowpipe makes absolutely no sense within progression is that when they had to choose between:

a meaningful alternative/upgrade to the magic shortbow or atlatl for those getting 84 fletching, 92 woodcrafting, 79 sailing or 92 farming, a 1/1k squidbeak and all the requirements to go through frost flake water

or a budget dragon knife for mains who can afford a 900k weapon (but not hundreds of dknives) to go run doom they chose the latter????

all that because atlatl is a pvm drop and rosewood isn't... am I coping or does this make no sense

At the very least the Q&A mentions some form of care when it comes to dry protection and not having players be locked behind extremely RNG heavy grinds like CG for important upgrades. I can't wait for 2030 when we get dry protection at CG2!!!

Qiyana dashes 2 hex allowing her to wrap around her target and line up a 2nd frontline unit. It's great! It's also self balancing by the fact that at higher tactician levels, there's way less room to wrap around properly because more units on both sides create a wall that often gets qiyana stuck.

Akali only dashes 1 hex and so she just hits the same target but from a different angle. I would get it (kinda) if she had 2 range? But this current spell shape is so unsatisfying.

I straight up feel like a 1* Briar with titans would have won where she lost. Speaking of which isn't it crazy how in B2B sets briar scales so incredibly well with the AP from titans?
