Geez, of course they are not the same. Strafe will mean that the melee class will not get his styles off, but he will still be hitting the enemy for base damage (and interrupting him). Run-through, properly executed, completely shuts down the damage potential of the enemy caster, even when they are using an expensive RA (MoC) that should prevent this very thing from happening.daoc_xianghua said:runthrough is exactly the same for casters as strafe is for melee classes

Naturally I see your general point, but the above argument is silly. And do please enlighten us all how you perform this wonderful "counter-technique" to run-through that you are talking about.
im sure you realize you still play it.Gahn said:I'm sure u never gonna realize that this kind of "business" piss off ppl, but even worse it's Mythic that don't realize it

daoc_xianghua said:and wtf do you expect ppl to do?
tbh BD is in no way more overpowered than a sorc >rr5 with moc3
do you rly expect ppl to stand still right in front of you when there is no chance to avoid dmg than runthrough?
runthrough is exactly the same for casters as strafe is for melee classes
there are counter-techniques vs both fyi =)
both strafing and runthrough is a technique to avoid dmg and ppl who dont get that after more than 3 years are just a bit clueless
Never strafe? Right And what's with the long off topic post, didn't read about anyone caring whether you'd roll a warlock or not x< The whines you get might be for other things than your playstyle too? :<Brite said:I seen the whine people saying Brite your rolling a warlock assuming i was just gonna roll one.
On my bd i never starfe or anything and i still get called a bug abusing starfer along with A LOT of over pointless undeserved abuse, ou may say i deserve it but thats beacuse of the complete bollocks you read, dont belive everything you read. I wasn't going to roll a warlock, but then i saw this video and thought it was really cool class, suited the style i want to play the game, solo / small group and these fights looked good the kind of fights i want to have and have a good chance of coming out on top with, like i do with my bd. But lately my bd hasnt been much fun in rvr im just like a slow tank, easily seen and i cant hide, so i respecced pve mode. Anyway i saw this video and rolled a warlock, my warlock is nearly 49.5 wearing my bds old worn out SC kit with different vest and staff due to those being bd tg stuff, going to take it rvr later and have a mess about, going 49hex 20wc 10 curse spec due to me only playing for another week until i go back to uni so i rolled this charecter on the basis on it being nerfed, and speccing it after nerf.
Whine away at me rolling a warlock, i got whined for rolling one when i wasn;t even going to so eveither way im gonna get whined at pointlessly, bd or warlock, im just so fotm ^^

Brite said:TBH if they gave mids after nerf warlock instead of then nerfing it mids wouldnt complain at all, it was one of the things we needed, another healer, another pbaoe class, somthing that can have better range. Its the fact they nerfed it, yet another mid nerf that has just disheartened a lot of people when classes like the minstrel, sorc and banshee remain completely untouched and continually given love, oh and another thane for mid isnt exactly a great help, and then they nerfed it lol?
I like playing the class, in my BD old SC suit, basiclly if your not interupted you can spam powerless spread heal all day, if you get interupted you can use uninteruptable but you can only get about 4 spells off with those and once you use those and blow your chambers you cant do anythig unless your not interupted, and the only thing i could take down was casters, no chance at taking tanks down really, no decent root, sprint and kite the only chance, suppose ill use frog mode more often ;P
One thing i did notice is that when stealthers pop on me i could survive, blow chambers and spam uniteruptables and take them down if there arnt too many resists (which i seem to be getting a hell of a lot of) But the reason for this is beacuse they have no matter resists what so ever, in there uber template they skimp on resists and pay the price of not being able to kill warlocks but this is what got warlocks nerfed, whining stealthers that QQ when they cant easily pwn a caster for easy rps and whining people with no matter resists, maybe it did need a nerf, but not that kind of nerf
but anyway flame away and call it a 2 button lamer class you ignorant people
Chimaira said:Ignorant to notice this puts bd to shame in overpoweredness?
Im not even surprised that you rolled this class you easymode 1 button I cba to be interupted kinda player.
yes you posted that this would be said

Puppet said:Tháts the problem; but your experience is from a BD PoV which isnt exactly a regular caster. Go play a fire-wizard for a while and you would agree.
