I’m still aggravated about the new troop roles. This addition serves no real purpose other than to prop up the “troop suggestion” feature, which is already best described as _flimsy_. But in the process we add yet another thing to the troop cards and to the collection menu, spaces that are already overcrowded - if you can’t find the “troop role” filter, you will have to scroll to see it like I do. (If you’re going to add needless stuff like this to the card display, at least show the magic stat next to the other three! And color code them for the love of [the religious nonsense of your choice]!) “Warrior” is still a wretched catch-all type that doesn’t really mean anything - filter by this one and you’ll find most of these troops don’t have much in common. Sapphira never one-shot a troop in her life but is down as “assassin” while well-known killing machines like Yao and Ketras are “warriors” (as well as TINA who should be either an assassin or a mage) - _Stronghorn_ is an assassin despite scaling exactly how Ketras does and doing considerably less damage. And Black Beast - despite particularly pointed comments on my part - is still a “support” when all he does for his team is consume them, I mean _seriously_? I _know_ my comments and my exceedingly long list of suggested changes were noticed, because I was told as much and on inspection just now about half the list got changed (mostly, for that matter, to what I advised), but some of the more silly things have been left alone (like 90% of the Warriors). And if “Dragon Eggs” is going to _robotically_ be called a “warmaster” just because it summons something, then the _rest_ of the rules-slash-guidelines should also be followed to the letter and troops that (conditionally or otherwise) do horrific damage should _all_ be assassins and troops that merely do “some” damage should all _not_ be assassins. But no. We get … whatever this is. Conditional 50-ish single target _non-true_ damage is an assassination for end-gamers now, you heard it here first. I definitely had some good things to say about this patch but for the life of me I can’t remember them anymore. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/4-4-update-patch-notes/56065)._
