Ok, maybe another smart mouth came with this idea earlier, dont know don't care.
Anyway, i got a theory that will make clear, and predictable who and what mythic will nerf next.
In order to predict future nerfs one must understand the definition of "balanced" by mythic, it is not like most of us think, equal chances against other classes, no its far easier.
Mythic definition of balance: Equal number of level 50's of all classes.
Since mythic is an American company, Mythic thinks american. And since american suck balls in everything EXCEPT the market working of economie (forgive my english) they think they can BALANCE the game via market working.
No idea what im talking about?
ok here's an example for patch 1.66
Mythicdude1: So what are the statistics for the coming patch?
Mythicdude2: Pallies are now on target, got a minor set back of scouts, Bone dancer numbers are still behind, Merc numbers are over the hill now and wizzards are Still on a major surpluss.
Mythicdude1: hmmm.... set Dirty tricks on a 7.5 minute timer, this will make sure the mercs who are 50 now will keep playing but will prevent new comers to roll a merc alt, Bonedancers are starting to be a pain... ok, with the insta life tap... we cant sell it to the public to do it on a 2 sec timer, ppl will go bezerk. Instead, make sure that the BD gets also a mana tap with the life tap. And also make sure that the HP transfered doesnt go down.. it's an extra, next patch when the bonedancers have the right amount of people say it was a bug, not a feature and tone down the transfer valeu to the original one consisting of 50% mana and 50% hp.
Mythicdude2: good good, that will cover most changes. What about the hib classes? they are still under populated and what are we going to do about the wizzies?
Mythicdude1: Aaah, thats easy, say a bug was in the AF self buf for wizzies that gave them a AF value that is too high for casters, and take away their PBT and say something like it was never intended that a wizzy is able to solo a green con tank. Half tyhe wizzies are bound to reroll into hibernian classes and and problem solved..
Get the point now?
So what do we do with this knowledge. nothing...
It's just a handy tip to predict the next fotm, Just look at the statistics of the us servers, determine what class has a under population of lvl 50's and start exping, next patch you will already have a fotm lvl 50 and can clame you had it before it was a fotm.
