[quote]1.6 is finally live and we appreciate all of testing you've done to help us add that extra layer of polish. We're getting close to wrapping up 1.7 and are excited to show you all the changes that it has to offer.
Class Revamps/1.7
Last Feedback Friday (http://www.playtr.com/community/community_news/feedback_friday_3212008.html) we mentioned that we would be revamping certain abilities to help create a more well-rounded Ranger and Spy class. Many of you have asked about other class revamps. Please know that we do plan to address the other classes as well, and have already been working on the back end portion for some of these changes.
A good example of this is a new minion system that will strongly benefit classes such as the Exobiologist. The new minion system is planned to allow players access to have more control over their pets and pace of combat resulting in more rewarding gameplay. More information on this will be available as this makes it closer to the Live Servers. And on the subject of pets, in 1.7 pets will receive a damage bonus from the number of points their master places in their Mind attribute.
In addition to these upcoming class changes, we will also be making a global pass for ALL abilities on ALL classes to identify and address the least effective abilities in 1.8 and 1.9.
1.7 Patch Note Preview
Our Interactions Team has been changing the User Interface to make more information available to the player. For example, you will find the following changes in 1.7:
