censi said:Albs got the gimped archer, hibs got the OP rr5 assasin RA...
but in terms of saying hib stealthers are OP when alb have a 3rd utility stealther class that is completly unkillable with timers key timers up and if with key timers down they got other timers to escape etc.. its a bit flawed statement.
gives infs remedy and give hibs mincer.
Remedy blocks all procs, all poisons, malice/battler charge etc. I'd say it's utility against the visual classes is pretty damn good. It was designed to be used against other assassins by blocking poisons only. Infil/SB RR5 is a timed preparation ability which is realistically rarely ever going to be used in generic RvR, it is only useful on siege users/ people standing still... hardly a comparison.Puppet said:Nightshade without Remedy is actually quite piss-poor from my PoV. Yes we got level 25 stunstyle (if we spec Pierce) BUT
* We dont get 2.5x specpoints
* We dont get access to the 'normal' race, only 40 STR 40 CON races
* We dont get Phoebus Style reduction
* We dont get more HP (actually we get less with our 40 CON races)
We get a castable DD, but thats just 'a different' X-Bow, Throwing Knives. That leaves the instant-DD which has a higher recast-timer then other 'in-combat DD's are does fuck-all damage.
Is Remedy balanced at the moment? No, its entirely *USELESS* against anything except Shadowblades and Infiltrators, and against those its stupidly overpowered.
Remove Remedy from Nightshades and Nightshades drops from top straight to the bottom, even below Shadowblades (!). I wouldnt mind being the 'worst' assassin, IF (and thats a big IF) we become more viable in killing visibles and/or groupability. Open up Celt for Nightshades, wont help current Nightshades but there's little reason not to.

Puppet said:? It doesnt prevent people from firing Arrogance on you, Battler absorb seems to work fine aswell.
Dont see any reason to use it on visibles, I loose 185HP when I use it - most visibles dont depend on procs and poisons to win, and in that case that 185HP is just wasted.
Sorry didn't mean the charges, was thinking /use2 for some reason... Obviously it blocks the Malice level 5 proc though.Puppet said:? It doesnt prevent people from firing Arrogance on you, Battler absorb seems to work fine aswell.

Crocky said:dude get real. light tanks don't even hit for that much unless they do positionals/follow ups. scouts dont even have a cruch line so how the fuck would that be possible. 50 thrust with 2 relics and lots of dragonfang maybe ye.
