BREAKING NEWS: Hunters run amok after UT Nerf! UPDATE

According to Blizzards Armed Forces there indeed was civil unrest, however they did indicate that the damage was greatly exaggerated. There was no pillaging and chaos. Within hours of the forces arriving most Hunters ceased protesting and mischief activity and returned to their normal business. The robberies of Mage class stores were isolated cases, and the suspects have been apprehended.

"This was a futile attempt to pin more blame on Hunters. The nerf was predicted. I don't know why everyone loves to play the Class card on us. In fact most of us agreed to this nerf. Just the small percent who are the loudest who will continue to cause more unrest against us. We should not let this happen in the future, its irresponsible."

The Mages who were attacked received non life threatening injuries and will make a fully recovery.

Unfortunately the son of the Priest who was murdered two weeks ago committed suicide. Memorial services will take place in honor of both victims of this tragedy. Blizzard has pressed for all Classes to come together and mourn for the death of the innocent victims and that this is not a class issue but outlawed players who have chosen to put their abuse of power on others.


Goblin Blastmages On The Move Tuesday, February 3rd, 2015 By: GeeZee

With the recent events having unfolded we now see ourselves with new allegations. This time against the Mages. During the civil unrest in Huntario, Mages there assembled a convoy of 18 cruisers, allegedly carrying possible weapons according to eye witness's. They were armed and protected by an escort of Goblin Blast Mages. There has been recent worry of the extreme power of the Goblin Blastmage. Some classes have called for a nerf against them, in fear their value may be too powerful. Articles below.

The responses have indicated many in agree with changes that should come to them. Blizzard has yet to comment.

A Hunter claimed that the Mages had been waiting for the unrest to occur before executing their plan.

"You seriously going to say this is a coincidence? Bull!@#$. Hours after the UT nerf the Mages in Huntario began moving out to isolated areas within the city. There is no way you can assemble such a large convoy and move out within a few hours. Not with the amount of planning and resources. They planned for this to happen. The UT nerf and civil unrest was a smokescreen to avoid suspicion. In fact they did nothing to assist any Mage stores that were attacked? Or perhaps they were isolated cases, they needed a better scapegoat to utilize their aggression and claim self defense. Or perhaps the Goblin Blastmage nerf that has been foreshadowed since the GVG Act. The community has shown a positive stance in the idea change to Goblin Blastmages. They know this and fear it. The convoy was out and gone, probably even before the BAF (Blizzard Armed Forces) arrived into Huntario. Again they are armed and preparing for something. With our UT out of the picture they plan to wipe our boards clean."

We tried to contact some Mages within the City however most of them refused or did not directly answer any questions we asked. However on Mage had this thing to say.

"What's with all the fuss? How many Mages do you see obtaining Legendary status. Less than 2%. Don't talk about nerfing jack. We're the least of your worries, but that doesn't mean we won't respond."

We don't know what the Mage meant by 'doesn't mean we won't respond'. There has been a massive transfer of wealth among Mages in the recent days all over Blizzards Cities. Although these allegations remain unproven, one thing is clear...

The community is calling for change against the Gobin Blastmage and the Mages are reluctant to embrace it.
