Range+mage won't be effected by this update as they can't hit 200+ anyway, therefore potentially balancing the f2p combat triangle. This shouldn't effect what people wear in pvp. This will not effect anyones tanking skills. Tanking standards will just be raised. This shouldn't effect the overall outcome of wars. Organization, levels, and numbers should still determine the winner. Will be wierd seeing purple soak splats. This will effect clans depending on the amount of members that are epileptic and have seizures triggered by purple colors.
