Ok, this is in an attempt to close this topic.
I always felt that nightshades were ok in groups and all, they were never making xp better as compared to killing something easier with one man less. But here is the facts.
They tank less effecient that a shield hero. Whatever you say you KNOW this is true. more hp + higher damage table + taunt + shield = best tank hands down.
And thats it, i know a nightshade can tank well with warden bubble and guard. But imagine if you had a shield hero that guarded the guarder. Its not needed to get a group going, but it helps.
The fact IS that you are not as good as any other class in a "normal" xp group in the roles you can assume. The thing is that most of you KNEW you would have a really hard time xping when you made your characters. If i wanted to be level 50 now i would have made an enchanter. If i wanted to rvr i would have been a shade or a ranger. But im not, because i wanted to be average/good in both, so i chose a mentalist. If it was a fact that power regen was useless in groups and noone ever needed healing and nukers sucked, i would NOT have created a mentalist because i cant handle frustration like that.
And to everyone reading this thinking "ok, now im not gonna group a nightshade". Bear in mind that a nightshade that knows what he is doing is a helluva lot better than a tank that have no clue about when a mob is mezed and replies to "Are you using taunt?" with "u stupid? im using fireblade cuz i do l337 damage!".
And i can assure you that any nightshade lvl 40+ knows what he is doing, a person unable to grasp things will never be able to level this kind of character to that point.
And as a conclusion, ive yet to meet the nightshade that does his own thing instead of listening to the otehr group members when suggesting things. But ive met ALOT of bad heroes in my days, especially spear ones that assured me that they were taunting when my CHAMPION friend took agro without taunting at all while being 2 or 3 levels lower. Happened TONS of times and i tell you that some ppl just dont care about others opinions(sort of like me, but im willing to discuss it first).
The End
