10 Reasons why sbs/assassins are finished for now.

[Kalhid^^]

reroll pvp...still old.mode... fgs vs fgs..assasins vs assasins on goth/aegir etc

is ok

 

[Jaapi]

Yes, archers deserve to be uber due to the grave injustice that See Hidden has been.

This is just the attitude that makes people like you and Aussie idiots.
When you're not the overpowered class you want balance. When you become the overpowered class you don't give a shit about balance.

Do you know what group of people is famous for that attitude?

Kids.

As one of the Scouts who used to just end up as free RPs thanks to assassins putting an obscenely overpowered RA to use for over a year, I'd like to do the following...

/plays the smallest violin in the world for you all

 

[Jayce]

WHINGE U FEKKERS LIKE U NEVER WHINGED BEFORE!!!!!!!! i hope u get ur balance, jus like i had to wait a year for it, heres to the next 300+ days. Cry me a River you slags. i fking h8 u lot, ur such whingers, the only thing thats changed around here is that i see u same time as u see me. and in the past u called me a fking wall leacher and an adder(but i never moaned about it, ever!), well come fking get some u fking piece of shit crying lesbions, (xcept the ones that had nice stuff to say about me, like varg and sala, who rock). i hope u quit. cos lets face it. its too hard for u now u dont have scouts to pick on aint it. u whinging gits. and to think u had this seehidden for a year and could see us far further than mos5. and ur whinging about it. whinge whinge whinge. whinging *&%&*.

and yup, u SB are as crap as i allways suspected, no PA CD= crap. crap crap crap.

seriously tho guys, adapt. archers had to, itll come round in the end, stick it out. dont leave, i need my buzz....... whingers!

soz if i offend anyone thats just 1 year of hell, completely off my chest, i have no more to say.

 

[Jayce]

No assassin ever cared about balance before! they just yelled get more skill noob at any archer. Remember what goes around comes around now your all the free RP cows so live with it of fook off to wow and give us some peace!

As for tanks same thing, you all loved dark age of tankalot where casters were free rp to you, but complain now its a range game, just sit back relax mythic will swing back to melle again after awhile

Catacombs anyone ?

 

[Jayce]

You scouts adapted with....RUNNING.

SB's don't have the same luxury as you firing into clipping range for 600+ damage.

You didnt adapt one shit meighty.

Shooting them was the adapted bit !! lol

 

[Vandar]

Detect hidden is still taken into consideration when the calculations are made so a stealther with an amount in MoS will see the archer with the same amount in MoS further away, unless of course the archer has cammo is up or the assassin can't be assed to spec in it.

I think the only thing that hasn't happened yet is the mental adjustment to not having their ready source of steady rps.

And please don't talk about archers zerging lol, you will find most archers are solo/duo still, you just tend to get alot near big battles, just avoid them and wait on bridges etc for the inc, Cyclodia seems to have made a successful career of it recently.
And zerges, lol, Mid has also its 3 muskateers in the kenwolf three-some.

 

[Sofus]

yeah i've also put my sb on 90% inactive mode now, but also mainly cause I dislike all the keep taking constantly. Hope something will be done asap or I reckon my best time in DAoC as SB is over.

Made me laugh a bit.

Thanks I was tempted to write a very insulting retort to Glottis highlighting exactly what I thought of him and his opinions (he posts identical comments on the VNBoards, justifying the overpowerdness of a sorc by saying it's only fair blah blah uke: )

But this summed it up perfectly.

LOL LOL LOL LOL lol lol LOL u zering fuck!11

if SBs are so crap.. why do u need 1-2fg other stealthers to kill them then? u stupid little spaniard zerger..

go cry me a river so u can build a tower over it and camp it with ur zerg u silly little zerger!

 

[Yadeniel]

archers are a bit god mode now, they earn rps only spamming bow..

but im having a lot more fun with my infil than before, and archers are really gimp in melee now. And a lot of em run to uncover me and win a free 700+PA withotu offhand.

The problem is when u are near some mids and a hunter come and uncover u, or with his damn grey pet... then the midzerg "outskill" u. But in 1vs1 they are reallygimp.


THe only problem i see for assassins are the damn TS guards, no climb points at towers (u feel so useless when u want help in a tower keep.. Dotn say me to camp the route ffs..) and the lvl10 guards adding to u ( through walls )every kill u do inside a keep, some of em can solo u :S

When a keep is low lvl it is too damn fun, u climb and kill, jump, climb kill st/jump


Edit: Djinn for u all are zerglings and spaniards, dunno how :/

a: thats some naff spelling

[Bloodaxe_Springskalle]

assassins all get vanish, no? that's your getaway?

for water stuff get some alchemy potions and use them before you go near (so you don't have the reuse timer - that said I'm not sure water ones are on the same timer anyway)

first off you need to buy MoS, then you need purge 2 and then some aug dex/str or MoP at decent level so u are able to actually kill what you attack, and THEN maybe you can afford vanish 1.
it aint so bloody simple

 

[Xmi]

Don't know if ppl got this, but 1) my main is a scout and 2) it's not about what skill/abilities xxx-class HAD to justify punishment NOW.
The point is, it should be fair (or very close to) for all ALWAYS.
Tbh, Daoc is a great game with the best PvP system to date. From my point of view It's so damn easy now to make the small changes necessary over the board, that would make it perfect, but it's not happening (!?).

Totally agree, unfortunately Mythic have a history of tweaking something that is not broken or over tweaking something that is, which is a real shame because this game could IMO (ofc) be f/awesome.

Another way to approach this is for Mythic to explain (in a public statement) their actual intention for each class, e.g. are SB's only there to take out casters now, as opposed to taking on other archers or other assasins (I am ofc talking about 1 on 1's here)??

Edit: Oh and can someone nerf those f/guards, talk about over-zealous job-worths! IMO they should only come into play when you are on the keep walls or gates, not when you are having a nice 1 on 1 nearby. Give us a break guards!!

1. Frontier is all about range, it couldnt get better for snipers than this.
2. The way MoS works; Snipers with MoS > Assassins with MoS.
3. All snipers got free getaway-cards while sbs got Shadowstrike :/
4. FZ.
5. Its way too many snipers around, attack one, get attacked by 5.
6. The loss of MoA, DR and RoF.
7. Climb-points are too few and too hard to find(especially in drunk-mode).
8. Towers have no climb-points
9. TS-guards.
10. Hysterical guards everywhere.

One might have believe that Mythic thought;

Hm, ok, Frontier is VERY Sniper-friendly, perhaps we should let assassins keep the edge against them(See Hidden) so they dont get too many, but nah...

Instead they strengthen them by giving them MoS, free getaway-cards like Desperate Bowman and keeping FZ in its current state.

OF sucked, assassins where overpowered comparing to snipers. Now its the other way around :/ How hard can it be to balance things out?

First there was no absurd ras, then See Hidden 1500 and TS, then See Hidden 750 + Camo, then Perma-TS up to 1000 for snipers but it never went live, and now MoS :/ It never stops. Instead of get rid of all that crap, they keep on changing it, over and over and over....

Can you see it?

- Assassins are now granted the old ability True Sight but in order to not make it too powerful all archers will also have Detect Hidden from level blablabla...
