oops! missed RM's and hunters on page 2

Poor Berserkers!

Any guesses on next char to be nerfed?

 

[faderullan]

1. Shaman 19% - Buffbots
2. Warrior 14% - Solid tank class
3. Savage 12% - fotm
4. Healer 12% - fotm for life
5. Bonedancer 9% - semi fotm?
=6. Skald 8% - ok class
=6. Shadowblade 8% - need little help
8. Spiritmaster 7% - nerf pet plz
9. Thane 6% - need help
10. Berserker 5% - midgards mercenery

 

[kain_pravus]

Well I hope they nerf buff bots to hell, which would probably mean shammys being put down to atleast 5/6th place..

No way would they dare touch our warriors, if anything there in line for some new fluff.

Needless to say the moans and whines of the albs/hibs masses have turned to our beloved suppression BD's, savages and pac healers.

I hear the nerf bat being warmed up, supression life drain on a timmer, savages damaged molested like the zerkers and pac healers with the stopping power of a wet fart.

But look on the bright side, us Thanes will start to look god like if mythic carrys on Muhahahaha

When Thanes become FOTM, it's time to be afraid, so afraid.

1. Shaman 19% - Buffbots (yup)
2. Warrior 14% - Solid tank class (yup)
3. Savage 12% - fotm (yup)
4. Healer 12% - fotm for life (pac spec fotm for life you mean? aug/mend is hardly fotm )
5. Bonedancer 9% - semi fotm? (yup)
=6. Skald 8% - ok class (needs a tad of love)
=6. Shadowblade 8% - need little help (same as above)
8. Spiritmaster 7% - nerf pet plz (they would take a ranged interupting pet who casts snare anyday over it ;s)
9. Thane 6% - need help (Y-E-S delete)
10. Berserker 5% - midgards mercenery (in STUDDED!!!! PPPPP)

Re: Re: Character Popularity

1. Shaman 19% - Buffbots - agreed
2. Warrior 14% - Solid tank class - nope, farmbots. Not so many warrs in rvr
3. Savage 12% - fotm - agreed
4. Healer 12% - fotm for life - contradictio in terminis. Two needed in every group and midgard has realised it.
5. Bonedancer 9% - semi fotm? - Good solo class. Good for casual players.
=6. Skald 8% - ok class - needs love from 1.65 + some defensive help.
=6. Shadowblade 8% - need little help - lots of help needed, 8% was from before nerf probably.
8. Spiritmaster 7% - nerf pet plz - Melachi said it
9. Thane 6% - need help - Melachi
10. Berserker 5% - Nerfed to oblivion, hardly any around

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Intercepting pet is the only thing that has made Dark SMs viable again for RvR and I wouldn't worry overly much as we have a nice fat series of nerfs coming in 1.65 anyway.

 

[old.Zarff]

nerf rm's for being non-excistant

 

[Crenshaw]

I'm sorry for being ignorant but what is fotm?
I'm quite sure what it means but dont have a clue of what it stands for.

not really, sb and hunter population is massive in bgs

 

[cuddled0rf]

yes must be a massive zerg.......

/who hunter@primetime thursday evening = 15 online

guess ppl learned how to use anon

 

[leviathane]

yes cos /anon is such a hard line to use.

 

[Bym]

Kinda glad I spent time having fun making one new character after another (37 in total) instead of getting my poor main to 50.....a berzerker obviously.

Was thinking of returning and playing PROPERLY for once, but I don't think I'll bother, seeing as I'd have to start again from scratch really. I wouldn't be able to face logging on as my zerker and watching her get her ass kicked. Probably die of boredom after 40 anyway (the amount of 35+'s I've had who've bit the dust....)

You'll have to forgive goasucks for the missing rm's and hunters, as I believe the survey was carried out of an evening after a few beers

Mercenery: Noone had mercs in groups when i made it. Hardly fotm then.
Minstrel: Ok i admit this was a fotm char when i made it. But that was pre 1.50.(I got lvl 50 2 days after 1.50 so i never played in the good times) And its hardly fotm after 1.50.
Cleric: Stopped playing my smiter when it was to good. Now i play it sometimes as a rej cleric. Never used him as a buffbot.

So who you now are. Stop talk if you dont know anything.

 

[old.mattshanes]

Mercenary has NEVER been fotm until 1.62 came..... and i would say about 80-90% of mercs who are rvring at the moment made well before that.Been playing mine over a year now and all this bollocks about zerkers can't hit like mercs/bms now is absolute shit, maybe the zerkers whining should ask grobirthir how does he hit around 250-300 mainhand on me.(which is good damage)

Also one more thing you say zerks are now mercs with studded, maybe... but you guys ALWAYS dual swing which means always hit cap speed with no damage loss.

Anyway, i noticed casters aren't so highly populated, i wonder if mythic will ever look at class population properly.

minstrel became more then viable (= not like skalds are now) when ablative came and SH was nerfed. Climb walls is not that good

SoS was always good but /assist changed the game more then any class change
