This is like a personal request all over again to suit a certain play style or game play towards a certain situation in WoE. Just like a certain someone requested OCPs, MvPs, Gods to be disabled in WoE. There's also a certain someone complaining about broken MA and more topics regarding GTBs and Tao Gun Ka as well.
If every wish is granted it'll become a personalized/modified version of iRO which may or may not be a good solution after all once it gets too messy with countless requests permitted. But anyhow it is indeed require certain fixes towards the mechanism of certain gears and skills Bonus or Malus which requisite immediate attention.
Undoubtedly you have a good point and its understandable where you are coming from with this requests. But still every matter is not as easy to be taken into consideration as it will cause a certain disgruntle feelings towards certain people with other class which may escalate to a more complicated requests in the future.

Regarding your first paragraph, I don't think this is comparable because I mentioned that hard line changes like banning OCPs and MVP cards are not good approaches. Regarding MA, that is a class specific topic and not something that should be discussed here.
And I agree that every wish shouldn't be granted, maybe mine shouldn't be considered either. Any changes made should be thoroughly debated and vetted. The first step in getting to that point though is through healthy and productive discourse, which is the ultimate purpose of the thread.
I appreciate the input, thanks!

The most direct method to save the WoE balance is to disable GTB card.
The most unreasonable part of GTB card is not immune to magic damage, but is immune to magic control. The direct outcome is, a RG with inpiration is almost unsolvable. But in fact, in the game mechanism, there should be a lot of control method to deal with such RG, but all of those control method is broken by GTB.
Disable GTB card will not result in super OP of magic users. Since Maya card and Mad Bunny Special can be a direct threaten to WL, and Magnetic Earth and Mad Bunny Special can be a direct threaten to Sorc. In an environment without GTB card, the game is more balance.
To change the effect of GTB to reduce magic damage by 90% or 95% is also a solution. Then GTB users are still under magic control skills. That's still reasonable. But I'm wondering is that achievable under technicals.

The decision to disable GTB would carry a lot of fallout. I agree that it would make for a healthier WoE environment, even though GTB card is actually the one MVP card that I have. Some people would be outraged though I'm sure and it is hard to blame them. I also agree that changing the magic damage reduction percent may not be achievable due to coding limitations. It would be nice if Campitor or another member of WP staff could update us on whether or not they have been considering working on a WoE balance patch.
