so it looks like the main class dev "keyens" has quit rift. welcome news to prob alot of players as class balance seemed to not even exist and nothing was getting fixed. (a major mage class bug which has been reported for months which had tanked their top dps finally gets fixed after the guy is gone) makes sense as to how little work was put into the latest paid soul where outside of IA and its pretty worthless.
now its all left to "vladd" who has been working on a revamp on fragments for way more than it should take.
and so class balance that didnt exist before will continue to not exist until there is a replacement if any.
