Um, when CF needed bards, people rolled them, now there are a bunch of people with 50 bard alts to play when needed. We did it with Wardens and Druids too.

If you want to win, then build the right groups. Roll the classes you require. Problem is everone in alb wants to be a wizzy an infil or a tank it seems and no one wants to fill the necesary support gaps.

Maybe the kind of people who play on Hib would really like to live in a real life commune and loose themselves in the idea of 'the group' and are more than happy to make sacrifices for the greater good. Most albs however aren't too bothered about the glory of albion which is perfectly fine.

Besides i've been playing since March 2002 and my highest char is 49.5 so don't look at me.

And anyway i don't think it should be up to the players to make sacrifices in order to balance the game it should be down to Mythic. If Alb support classes are so boring to play it should be fixed.

woo under 2 sec cast time add 3-5 secs on that for targetting, stopping, and hitting the keys, + enemy grps always headin for u at HIGH speed. so the range advantange makes little differnece out in the open, sorcs inside keeps/ behind something so they have time are a different matter.

This is excacly why ppl think Sorc mezz is gimped, 3-5secs to pick the correct target ? if u see some of the PE ppl play their sorc, u can clearly see they use 1sec to pick target, sorc mezz is ONLY! better than insta mezz (yes it can be imo.) if the guy playing the sorc is extremely good at his class and well awake, which the PE sorc's apparently r ... so get out their in FG excal sorc's and practice ...

Wich part of "mach 6" and "insta spells" don't you understand? There are less steps for a good healer in a good group to be able to cast a perfect mezz on enemy, as if it would be for the sorcerer. And by the way, QC might not be interruptable by many type of spells, but when you press the QC button it does not matter how much dex you have, you will cast the spell at 2.0 sec no matter what.

just one comment, most ppl are talking out of their asses anywhoo


if a 2h dude hits you for 300dmg on bof, its jawz. and still, 300dmg @ 5.5speed is 25.6 seconds to kill you, now thats pretty good time to cc, get heals etc.


I find it kinda funny how you whine that tanks do 300dmg on cloth under bof, how you think hib/mid casters have it?


like i've said earlier though, i dont mind sorcs getting a self abs buff of 19% or 27% or sumt, to help em a bit since they are main cc of alb and so on

Pez - well mate, I am sorry, but then you won't be able to complete against groups that are prepared to roll the right classes.

Yes, as long as you jump on a standing enemy.
Your strategy is pointless against collision fights (the majority of fights in the key points of emain like levian ridge, stones valley near DC, when u pass throu a millegate n there is a fg inc from the slope....)

Your classes dictate the areas you roam, I roam hilly places with trees, the reason I do this, is because my insta can aid me. I try avoid open pieces of land, because I know if the sorcer lands mezz, we're fooked. If mezz is purged, then he can root, and I hope the groupies are dumb enough to have damage shield up.

I mezz the milegate before I pass through, I do a /who and ask stealthers about where groups are etc. It's stupid imo to run the hill routes, because you are playing into hib/mids hands...force them to come to the spaces.
