Stealth changes to spear sergeants, Devs should give a respec book.

[Zerixar]

They messed with the bottom tree to make it less effective and only effective vs cavalry. The changes make the top line much better now. Most people were taking them bottom route, now they need a respec book. These changes were posted nowhere, there were no patch notes. This is not OK. It's one thing to make minor changes to percentages here and there for balance, it's another to change effects completely. Hours spent leveling this unit for TW wasted. They need to give out skill reset books when they mess with a unit like this.

those were the tuesday patch, and they gave them for the units that couldn't have trees maxed. there were no respecs given out for this large change.

the changes were that the brace damage only affects cavalry now, and the stun is now a "chance" and also only affects cavalry. this makes them a less efficient damage wall vs 90% of what they have to face and the defenseive top tree much better now. it's a huge change that warrants a skill respec item because it makes the top tree better now.

This is an old post, but I'm leveling my spear sergeants rn and cant find anything about those changes. Can you or anyone else shed some light on brace stun being worthwhile or not?

Bro you got me checking my spear sergeants like this is a new thing lmfao. I think they still stun enemies no problem. See it often.

i dont think the new tree is much weaker than the old tree it's just more specialized to kill cavalry... it's a shame cavalry is ♥♥♥♥ and nobody plays it now lolz

Respec costs you a dollar. I am sure you afford it. I get your upset - but in the grand scheme of things, it's a dollar.
