Imho guys, all groups will run with ACTIVE buffbots!! Thats just to kewl.. :D
Think this server will mostly illiminate solo'ers, as 99%of the classes dont have selfbuffs... long live no toa!!

/edit: And buffrange ofc! :D

Hi clueless...
Friars get self spec buffs, and an end reduction buff, oh wait, and a self haste buff.....

:rolleyes:

Hi clueless.... I am well aware of that. but to get the good dex/qui buff they need to spec very high in ench, no toa bonus (no toa server) no str/con and yeah they use crush vs a vamps weak leather, but a solo vamp will have dementia, melee resist self buffs etc, at lvl 49 my vamp has 40%+ melee resists, same for magic (with self buffs ofc) a friar wouldnt stand a chance i am afraid.

90% of vampiirs aren't dementia spec.

Friars do just fine against vampiirs, a lot better than most other classes without a bot.

well, ignoring RA;s, friars and vamps probably having similar stats, the vamp is getting a big resist on his dmg, and the friar is getting a bonus, but not just that, the vamp SM claw (heat damage) will be facing 50%+ resist. and barely any vamps are dementia, would be a good fight, but i think the friar would have the upper hand

all this about mid blah blah isnt an alternative to just end buff tanks + use some aoe buffs instead of spec buffs to get everything covered with just one shammy? or to bring a cave shammy into the group aswell <Shrug> so confused

actually the claw is shit anyway, what would fuck the friar up proper is 50% fumble debuff with a 2h weapon vs 40%+ (45/46% if shar) crush resist. add to that a vamp has 2200ish weapon skill and 2500ish hp (ofc all of this is with self buffs) i think they need to alter the way a vamp works on this server.

Well since its made so you can only buff the people in your grp afaik, they should either introduce unlimited concpool, or double it or something..

Else its no dex/qui for zerks :p such frontload..

Wait until the Yanks have the server before yelling how good or bad it is. Then wait to see if it is good enough to try GOA to buy a licence for it. (You didn't think Mythic is going to give the new server away for free, do you?) Then pray that the subscriptioncosts don't rise because of it.

All you can do right now is wait.

true, if dementia, the vamp would own the friar, but barely any are, at least all the ones i have met are sm spec

I think this sounds like a great idea, and I'd almost certainly renew and give it a shot. ToA pretty much killed the game for alot of players, so now people have the choice. :)

before you all get excited about a new server type, GoA have to buy the license from Mythic, that is if mythic want to sell it to them.

Which may not happen...........
