How come Albion has three stealther classes and the others only have two?

[Thegreatest]

Yes, its like this:

each realm gets a musicman/something hybrid.

For hibernia, its' a healer
for midgard, it's a tank
for albion, it's a stealther.

Why do albs get more caster classes than hibernia anyway?

Cause alb isnt the magical realm so they spread out the abbilities over more characters. You should be happy about that cause everything an alb character has, hibs have that too but because they have less casters they get more abbilities on each class...Its only a bad thing tha alb has more classes than mid/hib, still some hibs/mids think thats an advantage of alb...

its only and avantage of alb if you are bored of everything else

Almost forgot: Albs clearly has the best stealthers, as infils and mincers are unbeatable. Hib and mid is about the same.

Nice post. I was going to say 'you mean anyone still plays scouts' and your paragraph above (unintentionally I suspect) seemed to capture it nicely.

Eerh well I get shot often enough by scouts, so they are played. Anyway it would be silly leaving them out imo, since they can spec shield. You'd have quite a ballanced group, with a support class, a tank and a damage dealer. Not the best, but it can't be seen, so what the heck =)

classes whit castable stun.
healer so sadly only 1

It's AE though, witch makes it better then anything. And there are usually 2-3 healers in a group. They even get insta single and AE.

Albs only get clierc stun?

Edit: Ah, and mincer insta singletarget

why is FH getting more whiners than vnboards?

If you think that, you can't have read vn boards much. And I look upon this post as more like a discussion.

If this is whining, then your whining on the whining. So please stop.
Wait a minute..... That means that I'm whining about the whining about the whining.

PS. your sig is pretty stupid.

I can appreciate them tryin to make each of the realms different but when one realm's equivalent class is superior to the other two's what's that about?

All the realms are differant, some get more stealthers some get intercepting pets some get evil pbaoe, TEach class/realm has subtle differences, those differences are what makes the game interesting.

Imagine 3 classes that have the same abilities as Chanters from each of the three realms, I think it would get a tad boring, you choose your realm based on what class/race interests you the most.

As I posted in my first post. You are mixing differences with unbalance.

Differences = yes yes yes yes yes
Unbalance = noooo

edit:
Lets take infils for example (ONLY because they are easy to compare).
2.5 spec points, 9 sek after evade stun - no doubt supperior to the two other asassins. They don't HAVE to be overpowered to be different.

Get my point?
