Sums up AoC - The fact based version.

[PewPewAS50.50]

The problem is m8 is that they haven't actually buffed anything on a Necro apart from giving us a couple of new spells that don't actually do a lot.

Our single target nukes are still worse then a TOS/POM.

I have been through both FEAT trees putting feats into my nukes and the damage is still laughable.

I had 8 pet points before the patch so all the patch has done for me is decrease my damage to my AOE spells but not adjusting to my single target nukes.

Really pathetic when you get out dps'd by a healer class.

Just today i went to test out my AOE damage (not corpse explosion) against mobs 3-4 lvls lower then me and the damage is just pathetic mate it really is.

Roll a necro and see for yourself just how bad they really are atm.

Add to the fact the pets don't taunt at all as SOON as i decloak from stealth the NPCS automatically come for me = certain death.

A ToS is an offensive support class. Nothing wrong with them nuking decent. A PoM do not out dps a necro, far from it. Again your basing your results on low level experience. My PoM was pritty zZz to play up to level 70. Was told necros don't get their goodies until level 65.

And I can promise you a necro will out dps a PoM, so will a demono, a barbarian, a guardian, an assassin, a HoX and a ToS.

I nuke people for 350-700 damage in PvP, I sometimes crit for alot but that is just rng and very randomly when it comes to PvP.

You are exagerating your own classes weak points. Necros ain't perfect but neither is any class atm, only ToS is where it should be. Yet I'm not here whining about it, calling for nerfs to other classes. I know what I want from my PoM thus I'm asking for those stuff on the official forums, lobbying for 1.25 s smite and usefull CC. Until you played a PoM in endgame PvP I do not think you will appriciate how pathetic the class is at times when you basically can nuke some1 10 times and do 2k damage in total after 25s of casting and then just have the guy land his last style in a combo and 1 shot you with a fatality.

Thats the reality for a PoM in PvP, the 2k-3k smite crits are few and far in between and the repulse + CoM is out of the game, wich was our only source of a high burst damage in a fight before, though obviously I agree that the previous state was quite laughable.

 

[deez]

hi mates

anyways its pretty simple, you dont like the game - dont play it, its pointless to whine about it on a forum

YUS! you should blame other players instead - like with daoc, ppl flamed all day long! no one blamed me though i was tobad a player

 

[Ctuchik]

I nuke people for 350-700 damage in PvP, I sometimes crit for alot but that is just rng and very randomly when it comes to PvP.

lvl 80 necro "nuke" for 200:ish (crits around 400) in ice spec (which is our so called DPS tree) in pvp. meaning the pets aint actually doing much of any noticeable damage as that is in the reanimation tree. so while a ToS may not be obviously out dps'ing a necro its gonna be a battle who's got highest dps.

but for a ToS, having low DPS is perfectly fine because they can heal themself. a necro can't, atleast not for anything thats gonna be worth a damn. the only thing necros have thats making a difference is healing pots.

but necris ARE pretty bad right now. this last patch made my necro kill almost 3 times slower. with no increase to survivability so the mobs still kill ME just as fast as they always have. heck, 2 +2 lvl mobs and i have to chug a potion and run mid fight because i cant rely on the pot to keep me alive long enough anymore.

 

[Turamber]

Yet funnily enough TOS been buffed!

Complete bullshit, sorry. Our main AoE attack got nerfed so it will only hit 3 targets ... and it is also bugged so once those three die the rest of them attacking us don't get damaged. Great.

They also vastly reduced the feated splash damage of our lightning strike but removed the recast time.

So we have arguably better single target damage but hugely reduced AE grinding ability. In order to improve our AE to hit 5 targets we have to spec heavily in the damage tree, so expect ToS to have a lot less group aiding skills.

As always the whiners win, but what's sad is that your quote above shows how little the whiners really know or understand ^^

Lightening Strike no longer has a cool down i would say that is a fucking buff pvp wise at least.

 

[Stallion]

The only thing you can draw from the poll is that the tiny percentage of playerbase who participated (all from the same forum) generally liked the game when it came out, a few weeks later those same players liked it less.

It really tells anyone thinking about trying the game very little and is essentially pretty worthless.

No, if the poll consists of randomly selected people, you can draw a conclusion based on the sample, for the entire population. You can usably do this with as high as 99% significance levels, this is what pharmaceuticals do, economist and gathering general opinion shifts before elections.

I dont have time or energy to go though that poll and check whether the results are significant or not, but the fact that anyone(?) could enter the poll, means those that choose not to participate might bias the result, for instance; those that think the game is crap and have left it already, had no intention to waste more time on a poll for a game they already put on the shelf.

You obviously forget how much damage your pet does mate. I never killed a necro in a 1v1 as a PoM since they out dps my heals while I'm basically still loooking for the necro itself in the haven of pet spam wich he runs around in. And since it is not that easy to mouseclick ppl and the tab target thing is just random it is a quite downhill situation.

I grinded to 80 with necros, got like 7 necros I regularly play with now at 80 and their single target dps is not weak, it is alot higher then mine. So either your lying, they are lying, you specced wrong or I'm lying.

What you also need to understand is that a support class like PoM/ToS can have a maximum of 157 hps healed / second, that is not alot of heals however you put it.

If you want support to do 0 dps the healing have to go up, and then they have to rebalance everyones dps to sclae accordingly to the increased healing capabilities of the support classes, that will never happend; this is not WoW or DAoC where you can spamm heal. Here support does dps, does cc and does "heal"/ delay the death abit.

A necro is meant to be a pet class, that does his dps via his pets, since I never played with you I got no idea what your playstyle is, but I can probably assume that it is not viable to play a necro like a single target nuker, but you do your dmg via your pets mostly. With that said a necro kills single targets 2x the speed my pom does, got to the point in grinding where it was a waste of time for me to start my 2.5s nukes since everyone else killed mobs before my spells landed.

/edit

Also there are statistics gotten from the EQ2 stats program (on the official forums) that in over 10 raids, posted by diff people puts PoMs last in the DPS range, and ToS in the middle.. the the general idea of support having insane dps is an urban legend and a blatant lie made up by frustrated players struggling in PvP due to, probably, their own inability to adapt to a new game and the class structure within.

The pets doing the damage would be fine except they don't taunt their HPS is overall very low even with feats.

Do you think it is fun having to be perma hidden while clicking the pet attack button?

I am all for the pets to do the damage but the devs could atleast give us buffs to buff our pets to make their damage and overall survivability better and a freakin TAUNT!!!!!!

 

[Stallion]

I just did a simple Z-statistic to test whether the poll (sample) proportions are statistically significant or not.

I did this for question #2 What is your impression of AoC so far? based on Age of Conan survey #2.

I pooled the results into 3 different proportions:

• 
  Those that were positively surprised (included answers: "It's perfect" and "Better then expected")

• Those that were neutral ("Just like I expected")

• Those that were negatively surprised (included answers: "Worse then expected" and "It's horrible")

The proportions out of the 2331 sample were:

• Positive: 44.616 %
• Neutral: 31.231 %
• Negative: 24.153 %

Statistically at a 5% significant level, assuming the participants were randomly selected, the true proportions could not be rejected at the following proportion levels.

• Positive: 43% - 46%
• Neutral: 30% - 33%
• Negative: 23% - 25%

Listing the results from 1-5, where 5 is "It's perfect", and 1 being "It's horrible".

The mean (average) value of the sample is 3.221793.
Conducting a z-test at the 5% significance level resulted in rejections all across the board (0.1 intervals) expect for the value of 3.2.

Assuming this poll consisted of randomly selected people, as it was a public poll, with a selection bias (aimed to people reading forums and still playing the game) the poll itself is biased and will be misleading, I ignored the latter part for the sake of the test as its a problem of the data. The sample size is above the minimal required sample size, so it is sufficient to draw a conclusion of the entire population (1 million)

 

[Rulke]

Stuff

You're obviously spending too much time studying and not enough time AoCing!

 

[Stallion]

Seriously Staj, what is your point here? Is it a troll post? A flame?

Flame or not, every post with your signature makes me chuckle.. ill try to derive it to you in detail..

If you feel that I lack empathy and understanding for clueless people making retarded remarks about things they have little to none experience with then you are spot on. I don't think it is a very fair statement to say that a PoM is OP'd like Aada does in half his posts when he really have zero clue. And I'm not gonna explain to him why since it is well obvious to anyone who actually played the game somewhat.

Before PoM's got nerfed they were indeed op, seen videos of deathmaster grind and tried a level 80 PoM, and indeed I was laughing at my assassin when I played it again. And I'm pretty sure people moaning about PoM's stil live a few patches back, when as you say currently PoMs have been put in order.

Just look back at your own posts regarding your own performance

pull 5-6 mobs 5-6 levels higher. Debuff them, lane, rebuke, smite, lance, smite, lance, smite, repulse. Pull 5-6 new mobs. Rince repeat. No down time and killing 5-6 mobs 5-6 lvls higher then me, or 10 mobs wich are 2-3 levels higher like this. Sometimes you get unlucky with mobs who knockback you multiple times so you never get the chance to stack new hots, then you die if you can't get SoI up kinda.

PoM rox to PvE with really, have a tank that do aoe 2h damage ( like conq ) and it is so freaking easy ...

Though always hilerious to get jumped by a bunch of SUN newbs just to 2 shot their whole group with zeh OP PoM critical stack xD

To continue

I don't think it is a fair statement to whine about it being hard to level either through quests or grinding, it is 10x simpler then daoc.

I highly doubt you remember the old fashioned leveling DAoC had pre power leveling, it was a pain, but not as repetitive as AoC.

Its not hard to level in AoC! But it requires a determined mind to do so as its boring and as already stated; repetitive. I'm sure you can understand that most games released become easy to master after a while, the question is whether the "fun" part remains, if not it will easily raise voices for it being "hard" not as in "i cant finish this quest", but hard as in time consuming, and it feels very hard to continue leveling if you aint enjoying it. This is simply a result of poor design of the leveling system, quest and XP system.

You guys whine about grinding beeing slow when it is so fast with the right grp.

Another funny assumption, rps in daoc was easy to come by with the right group, so was PL in daoc, with the right group you could do level 20 - 50 in 6 hours.

You need the right people knowing what their doing, the right classes and the same kind of dedication to make it great.

I find it amusing you lecturing people about GRINDING being fast, you assume everyone can jump into the "right" group instantly. This is far from reality my friend.

I don't think it is a fair statement to whine about demonos and necros comming with ludicrous and laughable/made up examples of how much they suck when infact both classes roxthe box. Again I do not have to go through the exact details here since it is obvious when you play the game. The necro have the bets aoe atm and the demonos nuke dmg is very very nice and they have sweet cc.

If anyone here is clueless about anything its you, you dont bring one single point into your posts, "everything is obvious if you play the game."

Time to bring some arguments to the forum perhaps? Not hide behind other people being clueless and unexperienced.

I don't defend the flaws, I just point out that 98% of the stuff written in the other thread is so uninformed and silly it is not suited to make any kind of decision on.

And you fail to prove them wrong, you clearly belong to the 98% writing complete and utterly useless posts with no real game based content at all.

 

[Aada]

PewPew please when you get time in your busy life roll a necro get it to at least 50 then come back maybe you will have had a better experience then me and can offer me tips as to how i can achieve a better leveling/pvp experience that a POM/TOS has?



Thanks.

you didnt actually read my post did you? try again.

 

[PewPewAS50.50]

you didnt actually read my post did you? try again.

I obviously did.

1) I commented on your dps and I compared it to mine.

2) I stated that a PoM/ToS have a maximum of 157 hps / s with both hots running, you may add a health pot to that if you include one on your own char/the char you chose to "1v1 to the pom/tos/bs".

3) My own experience from playing with Necros last 3 weeks, ( havn't pve'd with any necs since last update 2 days ago ) is that they did more single target dps then I did, their pets nuked for 300-350 dmg. I was raped my a necro in 10 seconds with 2 hots + health pot running, as soon as I got close AoE fear and he gained distance again.

I have no clue what level your are or what spec you got but clearly ur have difficulties, now since I havn't played with a necro or seen what they do the last two days after the patch it will be a guess to say if it is on ur end or if the class again is sub par.

Nice fishing Stajj.

Only things PoMs had going for them every 2 min was the repulse + com + vog stacking, that way you could with lucky crits 1 shot most players except heavy tanks and boss mobs.

To continue I do remb how it was to grind in DAoC. Unlike you I had to solo grind my first char 1-50, a nightshade where you was probably PBaoing at fins or horses.

- DAoC grinding was alot more repetative, boring and timeconsuming the first months then AoC ever will be.

AoC is easy to level in compared to DAoC. This is a matter of opinon but if you played both games since release it would be obvious to you. Yes I say it is obvious since I will not sit and compile neat little posts with markers and headers for as I PUT it clueless people who will 'go that extra mile' to find new things every day to whinge about.

- Simply not worth my time. And I'm not trying to come off as arrogant and "know it all" but if you come here bitching about necros beeing worthless you clearly been in a coma for the last 3 weeks, eod.

Furthermore, your comparison between AoC PvE AoE griding holds no resemblance to DAoC RvR with opted groups.

You need support
You need aoe
you need a puller

--- Necro was the best Aoer 'till yesterday
--- bs/pom/tos
--- ffa puller/loot picker.

It is not hard to form a good group at all in AoC, what it comes down to is that you have a, as I say again a clue of how things work. And by judging the kind of whine on here atm alot of people lack a clue/experience.

I don't really see what you mean when discussing the "...you assume everyone can jump into the "right" group instantly. This is far from reality my friend."

- Do you honestly expect any game to be balanced around the worst case scenario of everything? Meaning, if we made the exp even easier for solo people who just wanna log on for 35 mins and ding 8 levels, what would then be the incentive to group, as someone else whined about yesterday?

- It is a MMO, where you want people to socialize and group, if a few select people chose not to as I did in DAoC there are penalties that comes with it, beeing; you get ganked, you get slower exp rates, it is harder to get high end items, gaining cash is harder.


Really I think you need to work abit more on that one bro.

And again, why would I need to explain every bit of missunderstanding or really bias statement on this forum with a lenghty exponation to why their obvious whinge and troll is just silly, mind you I'm not the one here crying about nerfs and how much my class suck.

Just about enough to read and sometimes respond to obvious trollings in the public channel ingame - the resemblance is striking. Same stupid remarks based on snapshot scenarios where x class feel they are subpar and gimped thus others need to be nerfed, wich as an argument doesn't hold for squat. Wasn't it nice good arguments backup up with facts that you sought for? Wierd how that only goes one way, isn't it.


All thats left is that you start to cry about assassins not beeing AoE monsters and we have seen it all on here.

- Obviously I doubt you will do that, but my point is that alot of the whinge on here is close to beeing just that silly.

Thanks.

Even better, you roll all the other classes so you will get it into your skull that all except the ToS do have issues, broken skills and/or are supbar in their field.

Since I'm not the one crying, it think that is the best solution for all involved.

[PewPewAS50.50]

Aye all classes have some broken skills and issues, as ot be expected on a release.

All I'm saying, and turning against is the silly whines, trolls and bias complains some people express in a frequent manner.

And when told they are beeing silly they want YOU to argument for your cause when they so conviently (sp) just leave that part out, "nerf x class, nerf this nerf that, i suck the game must therfore suck" with no other argument then just that.


I mean I was hugly dissapointed by WoW, wich I had followed since when Diablo II basically died after the dreadful expansion, thats several years of waiting and following the development.
The game,simply put, wasn't for me, but I didn't stay several weeks on end, to lingering.. just to whine and troll about silly stuff either.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Oh i just meant that DTs don't really have problems.

But yeah, good point, i think..morning...sleepy

 

[PewPewAS50.50]

Oh i just meant that DTs don't really have problems.

But yeah, good point, i think..morning...sleepy

Hardly seen any DTs to be frank, not on PvP server atleast. What I heard they lacked dps, but so does all classes it seems except tos wich is perfect.

The problem is all classes should have more direct dmg with less variance and more direct heals. So when u do dmg u get hurt , and when you heal u get nice heals. Atm it is weak hots and weak random damage, wich for me go from 200 to 3k depending on class and what timers I blow and how much I crit for.

 

[PewPewAS50.50]

Thought I add this as a balance to all Aadas whine about necros over the past weeks.

This was how necros performed when I grinded lvl 60ish to 80, though was nerfed some days ago ( as PoMs was ).

[youtubevid]N9WDadN5nhg[/youtubevid]

This is what they were like, yet there was a great deal of crying and tears, seemingly for no reason what so ever, as usual.

- This is one argument, for those who asked for it and not just wanna hear me say they are clueless.

** Now I know this has been nerfed 2-3 days ago, but the whine has been flowing on this forum for 1 month constant, and necros been one of the classes alot of people whinged about on how useless they were.

/edit, might add the mobs are level 78-80, and he is level 78.

yep. the whole combat system often feels entirely random. my nukes vary pretty similarly to yours. the most absurd thing i have seen is the other day i nuked a mob for 32xx without crit, then 'crit' the same mob on the next cast for 17xx i mean... come on, what the fuck.

I know, and if you where named a Priest of Mithra and had the bandwaggon crew on you - you would be the next one having your damage nerfed ... PoMs have the exact same thing, sometimes hit for 250 dmg then just out of the blue hit for 3k dmg none crit then crit for 550 dmg.

 

[Ctuchik]

Well...Dark Templars...sure they have issues but they are of the mental kind

have one of those and compared to my necro its a bloody killing machine now. and i've tried pretty much every spec there is on my necro.

have no problems taking 5 - 6 even levels on my DT and only killing them slightly slower then my necro killing 3 even levels.

and necros ice spec is still a fucking joke.

AOE was overpowered but they gave us nothing to compensate for the nerf.

Dude a POM out dps's me constantly a TOS just destroys me.. i have little to offer a group DPS wise to be fair.

AOE was overpowered but they gave us nothing to compensate for the nerf.

Dude a POM out dps's me constantly a TOS just destroys me.. i have little to offer a group DPS wise to be fair.

Well it is all down to the player, what items he/she have and what spec.

I 1v1ed 2x RUScorps necros several times (yesterday), I didn't managed to kill them even once, had a 12 min fight with one of them as the longest and it ended with him getting his little blobs up, for the 3rd time ( this time it worked ) and he send them to me and they all exploded or something doing 5x 900-950 dmg I died in litterally 2 seconds unable to move since I was surrounded by them.

A few hours before, another necro wanted to try dmg on me he couldnt get me below 95%. A few hours after I pvped against some ruscorp folks another necro in my raid group wanted to try damage on me, he couldnt bring mebelow 98%.

I also fought a ruscorp barbarian, our fights lasted like 10 mins every time, he won 3 times I won 2. He was playing really well, so was I. We could only kill eachother when we could burst dps and got lucky crits. As soon as I stoped he tried to land his "charged up" combos from CoS on me and did like 3k dmg in one hit. When I was stunned or knocked all he needed was some luck and I would litterally eat 4.2k dmg in 3-4 seconds.

Your not lvl 80 Aada, I doubt you tried that many specs, you got trash items. What dou expect tbh?

you got trash items. What dou expect tbh?

but heres the thing. for giggles after reading this i equipped my lvl 20 robe from Tortage (yes i still have that for some reason) and bought some mid 20 cloth gear, and i seriously didnt see any difference in overall performance.

my "nukes" didnt change, my survivability didnt change, the mobs didnt die faster or slower....

i could just as well run around naked and still it wouldn't make much of a difference.

funcom refuse to admit it but armor and about half the stats that comes with it isnt working properly, so atm what gear you have matters little.

atleast from the 2 or 3 hours i tried it.
