I find it exceedingly ironic that:
1) Eldroth didn't previously know about it... since it's been brought up numerous other times and been in the game for YEARS.
2) The plethora of other things f'd up in the game and he's wasting time breaking something that was taken into account during class balancing (if you can call it that).
3) All the other suggestions/problems that are actually detrimental to the game go unnoticed or at least unacknowledged, but someone brings up something like this on the forums and 2 hours later Eldroth and his team have dropped everything, found the problem, talked it over, and found a solution. I mean... wtf?
Either way I don't really mind. My ranger was a boxed alt anyway and not my main. My main toon got to contend with enrage all the time, but it was kinda nice not having to tab back to the ranger during enrages when I wasn't using mq2melee.
As far as the ranger shit, my main was a better puller than my ranger, even when HA worked effectively. I only used HA in a couple plays in EQ, most notably to pull the PH'ers from the back of the rooms at 4-way in CoD without actually having to do any work splitting.
