Windwalker PTR Concerns
Just going to expand more on the adjustment to T19 two-set and T20 four-set.

While the reasoning of the adjustment to these sets has been correctly pointed out, in so far as we wanted to make sure players have a reason to transition to T21, another factor was how those set bonuses interacted in a multiplicative way.

Its not of course desired to change a previous tier to keep it in line with the power curve of the next tier, but we don't want the next tier coming up to be unworthy of replacing the previous tier, nor having to design the next tier to be so powerful that its a little silly. It just creates a harder mess to try and balance.

Keep in mind that the T21 sets that are on the PTR currently are not final and are still subject to change before they go live. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
