Earlier today Minstrel team leader Mongo swapped his TL role to that of the Champion class. Taking over the Minstrel team leader position is Kallisti, who posted an introduction about herself and where she see's the Minstrel class headed, over on the Vault's Albion Rogue Professions forums. Speaking of Vault forums Blademaster team leader Jelinar posted the "Blademaster TL Report v1.66 Feedback" on the Vault's Hibernia Guardian Professions forums.

Effectiveness at Low Realm Ranks – Blademasters seem to come into their own in RvR after the acquisition of a number of key Realm Abilities – Purge, IP, Dodger, Determination. Prior to that, the class seems to under perform. Group utility also seemingly hinges a great deal on Prevent Flight. These requirements mean that a Blademaster has to reach a certain Realm Rank before really feeling effective in PvP. [Mackey:]With RAs being as important as they are, there will always be somewhat of a feeling of this. One of the goals of the RA review is to make it so that players will not feel the need to get to high RR before their class "comes into it's own." By the very nature of the RA system, there will always be growth in character power and effectivenes, especially with the first 2-3 realm ranks.
