what's the point of this thread anyway? that a bolt will cap on a caster with no shields up? has been like this the last 4 years, no?
charmangle said:I agree...wholeheartedly with suger on top...if there is a class in game except for gimp thanes (and no I dont think the latest castingspeed love was worth the paper that it might have been printed it onits the wizzes...
But please give them stuff that makes them more interresting to group with and lower their bolt damage. Dont give them even more stuff that will make them haunt the towers/bridges and be shunned by groups.
As I said before I do think giving them casters speed and removing it from sorcs would do the trick, and maybe giving them an instamess and reducing range on sorcs mess to 1500, that would make them invaluable in groups ? (casters speed, damage and instamess must be interresting even in albgroups!

Eyres said:does kinda suck that every rm spec was a watered down version of a hib caster..... noweven wizzies have nearsight and spec nukes and better bolts.... thats 2 diff rm specs to get all that.... wizzies get it in one.... somthing needs to be changed anyway.... not just carbon copy another caster but just give it somthing that says im NOT just an eld/chanter/wiz but shitter

In no way can you compare Wiz damage to pre nerf insta killing Warlocks with their chamber + cast which is 3 DDs (direct damage and a bolt aint direct damage).
Bolt are easily healable even if 1 bolt would do as much as 1200 damage as you normally see them comming and know a second one is comming shortly after so you can pre heal it before it lands.
Direct (warlock) damage cannot be pre healed as the damage (as the name might give away) is direct and theres no delay in it.
I've played many casters in both Alb and hib but I've never been hit for 1000+ with bolts, ever.
Highest was a while ago on my Cabby for 850ish and some time ago on my Chanter for 800ish aswell though never even got near 1k+.

I don't know how many times I've been saying this over the years but ppl don't seem to understand that "speed buff and low lvl NS" is not much better than "two working bolts". I for one would rather have "two working bolts", especially now in the times of hastner and player mounts.E_E said:No1 from hib or mid should ever ever ever!!! whine about wizards dont make yourself look dumb, in any way both realms have better caster than wizards even with the new boost wizard are gimped...
Muylaetrix said:you still nuke far harder with a baseline that 90% of the wizards will ever do with 2 bolts stajj.
Eyres said:most of the albs trying to defend wizards here KNOW that wizards will kill a caster in 3 bolts if they land.... no other caster can do that but a wizard.... and they do it often.... dont act like its some major fluke.... stop trying to defend it by comparing to warlocks because no one really gives a shit..... warlock was always been some bullshit zerg class.... but any alb caster can be put in a fg, and the fact that there are so many alb casters high rr and are utter shit players says a lot about the classes. its has been a long time since ive seen a high rr alb caster and though damn they are a fucking good player..... it however has been a matter of hours since i last saw an alb caster and thought F8 ML9 MOC lifetap zerging mother fucker
Which also is utter bullshit :>Tesla Monkor said:doing less damage than your class-type
Zebolt said:And bare in mind that their spec bolt is the highest dmg value bolt in game.
Warlocks bolt is 4 sec casting time which means it's lower dps :>Andrilyn said:Wizard Fire bolt, 331 delve.
Warlock Cursing bolt, 413 delve.

So you manage to beat wizards? :OxGenocidex said:Wizards are skilled!... if you survive the 3rd bolt clueless wizzies try to charge you for some odd reason lol... maybe they don't know there own range on DD or something.. anyway 80% of the time 3rd bolt has hit me i've just turned around waited until clueless wizzie charges and blown it to pieces... at which time i guess there sitting at the monitor saying something like "OMFG YOU NOOB YOU NOOB LEAVE NOW BEFORE THE ADMIN BANS YOU I KNOW YOU HACK" etc ;O
