"Yes, I did resign yesterday.
Stealther Balance was a priority for me. As someone who has played a Shadowblade, Hunter, Scout, and Minstrel all above RR5+...I felt I had a decent grip on the situation.
Level 50 >5K RPs
Ranger 832
Scout 816
Infiltrator 673
Shadowblade 518
Nightshade 485
Hunter 471
What stands out to me more than anything is when comparing like classes. When comparing the Archers here...there is a pretty decent gap here. For example, I think Zerks, BMs, and Mercs are well balanced and they have 346/370/299...very nice balance.
In addition, Midgard is outnumbered here in a big way in stealth fights...and that doesn't even include everyones favorite Alb Stealth Utility class.
However Hunters are well behind the curve here, and as someone who knows one...they need some help in the Beastcraft line...and suffer from the 2H vs Evade penalty in a big way. Just because of that, Rangers are much more effective at stealther melee hunting. Does that say Hunters cannot be downright nasty at high RRs...hell no.
That being said, Amodin is one hell of a TL, and is doing all he can for the Hunter class.
Shadowblades need help in the areas described here as well, as well as general RvR effectiveness for all Assassin classes.

These are the words of a well respected and very knowlegeable ex-RvR-TL, pretty damn sad if you ask me... and you wonder why we're content to play warlocks...
