Nice to have you back on Dyvet Manisch nice to have more albs whining :D

For you even 1 + 1 = 2 is whining. Don't overestimate the impact of your lame play style too much, it just makes people log and do something else. Stating some facts isn't whining.

Might have something todo with the fact that you'd prolly be better off 1vs1 on a rejuv/enh cleric, then a ranger.

Aye, that's why all the rangers fail in the same way. Believe it or not, but there were actually hard to kill rangers on the cluster, even pre-patch.

But thanks for providing us with the ultimate truth to all MMOGs again: if I suck at something I bring friends or or run away and justify it with my bad class/equipment whatsoever.

Pre-patch, well no shit jimmy. The patch is the whole problem. Duel wield nerf vs shield, no pd anymore AND the pathfinding line is in the bowline now. Every so called hard to kill ranger either gave up or rerolled to full bow.
Trying to melee on a ranger atm is about as much fun as piercing your balls with a rusty stag.

I didn't say anything about melee on a ranger. Nor do I have a shield on my Infiltrator, nor would PD protect a Ranger from LWs in the first pace.

But I understand your point: a Ranger 5-6 RRs higher than his enemies should run around with MoS5 and ultra high bow damage to add only, because bow or the rest of his combined abilities will never win him a fight solo against someone else.

The irony...

K Manisch for you information mate try reading Patch notes that concerned Rangers.

Rangers lost the Celtic dual against tanks because of the Sheild styles tanks got rendering a Mellee ranger bloody useless.

The skills that Ranger got in they spec line which was Pathfinding got taken out and got put into the Bow skills which then gave Mid Hunters Alb Scouts even more utility then Ranger.

So to play a Ranger against a tank now would be pointless tbh unless you grouped up against a tank.

You should try a Ranger Manisch maybe after playing 1 you won't moan so much about a Rangers play style.

Then again Manisch you so Elite on everything you probably say that Rangers are most OP of all the Range classes rofl.

Name me one class vs which a ranger should win with his combined ability's.

pointless bullshit snipped

I didn't say anything about shield tanks, I don't expect any class to win over shield tanks.

If you feel externally controlled by the might of some nerf, then you're just a lemming, but there is no news in that to me.

A high RR bow Ranger has good ranged damage and the toys to keep the range, you might want to try that out.

A properly played Ranger eats my Infiltrator (shoots me for 50% of my HPs from stealth, then I have to run towards him to get FZ'ed or leg it), gives my Flex Heretic a hard time and I think it kills any of my non MoC-casters too. Versus my Armsman & Merc a Ranger can get away easily or just stays stealthed.

That's not the point though, even if it would be the worst solo class one could play something different or leave the solo guy already fighting 1-2 others alone.

I agree m8

Soulja

Has nothing with being elite when meeting you and making some observations, nor with moaning.

You said yourself that you zerg and add, you didn't find an argument why exactly the first time when saying the Albs make you do it and now you failed a 2nd time when saying your class makes you do it. Just live up to it.

I dont try to remember every brehon i encounter so no i dont remember his name, the only 2 i remembered was darkshroud and yours. And as for backing up not everyone reads FH (cleric and armsman) so get a clue before you start calling me a liar.

So essentially - you can't back up your bullshit. Neither myself nor Darkshroud remember any vamp in our group that evening, and as you've admitted you don't remember everything, mayhaps you're WRONG??

The original point still stands (which you conveniently ignored) - why were you flaming peoples' playstyles when the post of mine you quoted was just taking the mickey out of people for whining?? I see no relation between whining and playstyles. I have never admiteed to being a 'leet' I just play as I want.

And also with a less-than-clean reputation yourself bud, google the proverb 'people in glass houses shouldn't be throwing stones'.

On the upside - I like to thank all those involved in the running about last night - nice bit of rvr with some roaming. :D

I'm not sure if rangers are totally rubbish, but I would argue:

1) FZ'ing (if you have it) doesn't equal winning
3) ARE there any non-moc casters??
2) Getting away/re-stealthing doesn't equal winning either, being able to 'get away' is hardly a plus point, you want your frigging opponent dead

Trying to keep range on a ranger is somewhat more difficult than just FZ'ing and waiting (and that means you get one fight every 15 mins). As I said, I don't think they're totally useless but I'll take the slam on a scout or pet on a hunter over what rangers are like now they don't cut the mustard in melee.

If fz'd on your infil, use a dd charge otw back and maybe use engage on your tic? Though 50% health would require MoS5 (vs an infil) methinks and when it comes to melee, well nevermind really...
And how the fk is a ranger suppose to get awah from an arms (slam, snare, x-bow?) or a (charge?) merc, leave alone to kill one.

And about adding, i recall a certain arms adding on an 8vs8 not long ago. Not that it matters really.

Yeah, That guy had MoS5. That short stun/root is enough for a Ranger to get away from my Armsman, though as I said, Merc and Arms are a different league.

I joined in yesterday when you fought CM and wasn't too happy about it, sorry, will not happen again.

Well I've only played scout. But as for starters don't let him get in to melee range ...

Erm, amoung all the game mechanics talk arnt the arguments just:


1) Rangers are now crap so i'll add to compete.
2) Rangers arnt so crap that you need to add to compete.

Tuth and Soulja are supporting 1, while Manisch is supporting 2?

Tuth is probably just arguing from the mechanics pov while Soul is out practicing it in game?

If people want to continue to be negative, fair enough, but the action has still been reasonably good for the population, let's contiinue to have fun and let's all stop fucking whining and enjoy the game.


LOL why not admit that this has become a 2 realm game now, as hibs and mids stand side by side fighting all albs and not each other..... the time this is done perhaps we can move forward and forget the whining, cause then all ppl know where they stand.

Last time I ran into some mids @ eras we got our arses kicked, so the 2 realm theory is something you can take to CS, because it's not something that happens on Dyvet
