Be kind to your stealthers.

WEll the point I think is that some group leaders think that Infi's etc will draw too much aggro and thus be a mana drain on the healers however by and large the same is true of nukers in a group. I've seen some nukers who refuse to let the tanks dish out out at least some damage before they blast away and yet most nukers seem to have no trouble getting a group. There are no really "bad" character classes that you exclude from a group although there are some bad players and they are by no means confined to "stelath" classes.

Note: there is no need to pass a breath test to play DaoC hehe

Assassins are like wizards, except they take 4 hits to die instead of 2, and should have a detaunt skill
(I'm assuming thrust has one?)

If yer assassin waits for the tanks to taunt once or twice before landing the backstab (or do they only work on monsters that aint in combat?) they should survive a lot longer.

I find I have to manage my aggro as a merc... smack smack smack, detaunt, smack smack, detaunt, whoops its gone for hte cleric, taunt, taunt ,taunt ,taunt (yay finally hit)

Having fun with my LW champ ... in the same time as that it's 'smack, ick it attackin me, detaunt, phew, whoops its gone for the cleric... taunt... zap... cmon stop killin the cleric! (3 years later my weapon cycles and hits)... '

Hehe LW is funny compared to dual wielding hand axes

Stealthers in general deal high dmg. but cant take so much.

that they are gimped is just a myth.

for example a Hunter with high spear does much higher dmg then tanks at lower lvls and same at high lvls. that is with spear but if we can afford to use Bow we outdmg any other class by far. except casters cause their dmg is just insane.

Most experienced ppl know this, but some will just have to learn this themselves.

so if u got healer and mezzer and 2 punchbags u are good to go and the classes of the other 3-4 just have to be dmg dealing classes and stealthers is excelent and so is casters.
