I don’t understand what you mean. They said that the chances are the same, so unless you do what @Remiri said, I don’t see how it can be easier nor how +16/+17 would be a standard in new patch.
3-2. Item Enhancement
While the chances of enhancement remain the same
He said easier in quotations, im pretty sure he means that it is easier in the sense that it costs less, so less cost = “easier” to try again.
But thats just my best guess.
Well, I don’t see any quotation …
Yeah, now it can be more than a filler for lower levels 
My bad was reading c2gamings reply
It’s actually great for PvP now because the low cooldown and AoE knockback xD
Fun fact [bug?]: The explosion happens when the buff goes off (not when timed out) so if you use Gohei/Cure or run to a Counterspell it will explode instantly, which makes it even better :V
Did they do anything to the mechanics of AoE Ratio? That whole stat was one of the stupidest things they have ever done and needs to go or be altered.
Fencer Video Comparing Full STR vs Full DEX.
Confirms DEX affecting Compose speed by a bit.
But look at this very little different crit damage, or must i say full dex did lower crit damage , while Epee Garde is up.
Full STR
Compose
Full DEX

Fencer dead ? No.
What was that 40000 damage at 40 sec ?
What was that damage ?
That was preparation+ataque au fer (by which skills went on CD right after )
242k crit ftw lol
Want the same think with Serpentine + Dethrone T-T !
Maybe Murmillo with Shooting Star from Rodelero can do something well too.
Back in the day Cryo was considered a good support because you could gather enemies with snowball or pillar and mass CC to keep enemies in place to maximize effectiveness of AoEs and so your team wouldn’t take as much damage, nowadays you just oneshot entire groups of mobs with linker even if they aren’t grouped, and most enemies just hit 1s on +30 stage 200 trans plate armor if they hit at all so Cryo’s utility doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters anymore in ToS is how fast you can kill things. Even with this balance update I don’t see that changing much, since they’re making enemies weaker anyway.
And this is exactly the main selling point of Cryo: The frost tree. Grouping up speeds up killing speed by a very lot. And now Cryo even deals a ton of damage. The multipliers on the damage skills will go down or IMC proves again that they actually have no clue about their own game. 
gg doppel
in fact this destroys lots of swordie builds, doppel 1 isn’t a good choice anymore
Grab Concentrate lvl 15. Full Dex or Full STR. Grab Blessing.
Cyclone will deal damage.
Isn’t the entire point of DoV stacking with Gung Ho now? It’s quite a big increase if it simply makes your PATK higher.
Deeds of valor still have the same duration, it just does not have stacks and it also do not increase your PATK anymore too, it increases your final damage by 33% and damage taken by 19% lv15. I don’t know if that is after or before defenses.
If you’re not aware
Swell Left Arm: Shrinking Size Specialty
Swell Left Arm is activated when attacking a shrunken enemy
Properties of 30% more damage per level
this is 120% more damage on shrunken enemies vastly up from the 35 flat.
It seems to apply after the skill factor calculations at present.
Wizard C3, Thauma C3, Warlock/Feather foot can do some serious damage to field/dungeon mobs.
