Les entertainers à l'honneur

Aujourd'hui, une mise à jour importante de la classe: entertainer a été mise en place sur les serveurs de Star Wars Galaxies.

Annoncé depuis longtemps par les developpeurs, l'entertainer fait l'objet aujourd'hui d'une refonte complète avec la Hotfix 19.12. Parmi ces changements, nous retiendrons les plus marquants:

  • refonte de l'expertise
  • nouveaux buffs de combat
  • nouvelles coiffures pour les compétences d'image design 
  • nouvelles danses
  • un nouvel effet de danse (flourish)
  • amélioration du groupement avec d'autres joueurs
  • nouveau set de bijoux héroic: le Tragedy (pour les entertainers de combat)

Ces nouveaux changements promettent de voir d'avantage d'entertainer de combat sur les champs de batailles ou d'admirer les belles créatures nous proposer de nouveaux spectacles à la cantina de Mos Esley (ou ailleurs pour des show privés ^^).

Pour les plus anglophones (et courageux) d'entre vous, voici la liste complète des changements apportés par ce patch:
