I'm curious about this too. Did you have to fight Sajj'aka/Bumba or was it just the Delve bosses?

"The evasion rate for monsters appearing in the Oathsworn Blade battlefield has been lowered."

The fight was nerfed. I'm not sure how relevent this will wind up being, but whoever predicted nerfs earlier in this thread, you called it.

Seems pretty relevant, since evasion was the most demanding complaint about melee strategies. Doesn't seem likely to change anything for the RNG strategy this group has been using, since they should be capped accuracy already.

It was August's dispel, conal or AoE amnesia. Lion's full dispel + Paralyze aura, AoE doom from tree, weakness/dispel from Dino, dread spikes from teodor.

Eva nerf is welcomed, now the COR can shoot without SV lol.

Both dispel and evasion have been discussed. Dispel does seem to be the bigger issue.

How much of a meaningful difference will this actually make?

Even with SV songs, COR would struggle and drastically fall behind RNG dps not being capped acc. Without SV songs, Ranger wasn't capped acc even with full hover shot stacks. We'd need to swap buffs over to accomodate but lose dps in the process.
Our cor would barely be able to get 1k TP for a WS without SV songs unless they gave themselves hunter's roll, torpor and precision. Whilst the rangers only needed precision with capped hover shot stacks.

I doubt it'd make a difference on the Naakuals, they were never that evasive for the DDs without SV to struggle too much. But on August it makes a lot of difference for non-SV songs and helps the COR be more useful during both non-SV and SV anyway. So hopefully we can get to Teodor spawn with 45-50 minutes instead of 50-55 minutes :D

Dispel is an issue because it removes buffs, which are needed to cap accuracy/haste/attack. If you no longer need (or need far fewer) accuracy buffs, you are more able to cap everything necessary while experiencing dispel.

They are largely the same issue; if you were able to cap your accuracy and haste without any dispellable buffs being used then the dispel becomes irrelevant.

This is one of the biggest reasons we've had to reset runs. I lose hate to enmity cap and within 1-2s of enmity cap August just Null fields from 20" away and dispels an SV prelude and we can no longer hit the guy so we gotta warp out.
1 SV acc song being dispelled was pretty much a reset.
