Nice, sniper hero classes are getting more and more interesting  ;D Although i would like to see the warden class have more athletics, as this would make the upgrade more worthwhile.
But all in all, a wonderful patch indeed, and a special thanks to the development team!

Exactly what I wanted to suggest right now.
+1 to Athletics for Warden, seeing you could have 9 if you mixed the Militia and Sniper before.

And thank you for all the hard work you guys put in to this . You're doing an amazing job.

Sorry but no, snipers are already fast enough in our view.

8 PS for a ranged class is abit too much for my opinion . We might see archers fill in the slashing roles now aswell.

Archer only event with hero archers that now can shield, slash and shoot.? 

Even us Zweihanders only get 8 PS. And we are supposedly for slashing. ( give us 9 PS pehaps?)

Just my thought on things.

I think you forgot about being good with a 2h and having heavier armor.  Also, a higher shield rating.  Sentinel is no replacement for a Zweihander.  A large part of me wants to go sentinel, but it just seems like a gimmicky solo class . 

Edit:  Really like the update to the ranger! Great for someone wanting more survivability over more damage output/speed.
