How does everyone feel about the new Descent Flameblastions(Champions)?

Shadow can do decently, even without flameblast. Without flameblast, I am pretty sure the top record(s) will hit 23. With flameblast at level 10, it will be something stupid. It's unfortunate that the top level bracket is probably unreachable with Shadow, but that's generally been the case for most race types.

Rangers are probably the weakest class currently. Pls give sword in quiver form.

Agreed, I was at 99% into 21 today with a 3 minute d/c. I didn't get flameblast this time either. Shadow records are probably going to be 23~24 non gem drops.
Maybe when I finally craft a 50+ ipd weapon I will hit 22.
What's important is balance, so lets take a look at the numbers for the sig races:

100 Minute Fixed Seed (S06S172)
97 (7.8%) Templars
155 (12.4%) Marauders
102 (8.2%) Witchs
131 (10.5%) Shadows
156 (12.5%) Duelists
155 (12.4%) Rangers
454 (36.3%) Scions

85 Minute Fixed Seed (S07S171)
98 (11.4%) Templars
129 (15.1%) Marauders
123 (14.4%) Witchs
138 (16.1%) Shadows
128 (14.9%) Duelists
104 (12.1%) Rangers
137 (16%) Scions

40m Descent Champions (S08S021)
227 (11.9%) Templars
268 (14%) Marauders
435 (22.8%) Witchs
260 (13.6%) Shadows
269 (14.1%) Duelists
197 (10.3%) Rangers
256 (13.4%) Scions

People can take away from that what they want. I'm only going to comment with, fantastic job on last seasons balance (also give rangers and templars some tlc :) ).

Balance has nothing to do with how many people are playing each class, balance refers to the potential (average or top-end, whichever one you want to focus on) of the classes relative to eachother.

There is a big flock that goes to the power house / fotm though so that is one definite sign.

Just because ST isn't #1 this season doesn't mean it's a bad race.

No one is talking really much about spectral throw specifically. This is for overall design and balance. Great contribution.
