BD

Though i'd call BD's, SM's, Anamists, Enchanters and all Archers overpowered.

Though giving FZ a proper nerf will solve alot of the archer problems and nerfing the range/height bonus ratio. (changing the reuse timer is not the kind of nerf it needed.)

2) Mincer, totaly unblanaces the stealthers wars.

Strafing isn't the problem its the heal pets and silly timer on the lifetap

The mid Healer. Let's see how good mid groups are without that healing and CC potential, all in one class. And the freedom to have 3 healers per group.

+ FZ :p

Don't think BD is that powerfull in group stuff tbh, it still has caster hp, get a couple of caster/tanks assisting on it and it will go down fast.

Sorc with all abilities up with ok RR, is quite deadly solo and in group.

SM's pet intercept vs pure melee classes is pretty evil, who needs MoC when you can PBAE/Lifedrain and not get hit?

Generaly Archer's range, reduce to bolt range.

Probably high opted sorcs. Though I believe those are relativy rare, and since ToA and what not every heavily opted class is "overpowered" by definition. And.. I'm too lazy to highly opt myself, so I'm practically don't wtfpwn.

As for the most wtfpwning-with-seemingly-ease class, I honestly don't know. I've never played a BD, but they do seem rather easy to play.

But then, I thought that Animists were wtfpwn too, until I actually rolled one. It's a funny and great class to play, but they seemed a bit meh to me when it comes to group vs group fights.

I'd say BD because they do have a high-kill rate and three pets attached to their arse. But, if a sorc manages to mezz his pets and the BD doesn't spot the sorc in time, he's dead.

So, once again, it really comes down to the paper-stone-scissor-cheese game.

:eek7: No MoS means they are so easy to spot that they are often PA'd by the first thing that spots them, then PA'd by their friend(s).

Minstrels for stealther wars are not that uber anymore. Look at archers, Arrow, Arrow, Arrow, Arrow, Arrow, FZ, Arrow, Arrow, Arrow, Arrow. Can add quiet afew more Arrows on that if u want if its one of the non newb fotm ones.

Sorc/Bder are pritty overpowered, theres a reason why so many lvled these classes. Sorc has huge range on mez which is great for small group fights, can easily get first mez off when camping, and lifetaps mean it can keep itself alive np with any spec, + Pet, which can range from anything now, healer/melee/archer/caster/stun bot.

Bder's are just overpowered. No one that plays one or has seen one can say otherwise (Brite, you might try to make out that a bder isnt overpowered, but you know that it is). Fully buffed pets, pets that heal with instant lifetap for extra added heal, decent nukes which only add to the instant lifetap and an interupt pet for extra added bonus, + al the tools that they get from ML's/Artis/Ra's to go ontop of this for extra added security.

Moo imo.

Cave shammies no doubt. I feel so overpowered when I play mine :)

BD is probably the best soloer. Healer is probably the best group char, but the sorc is the best overall class.

Aye. They solo just fine (if they can find a decent pet) and are excellent group players.

I believe sorc are prolly the most overpowered class until cata then warlocks will take over, bringing mid back to the top of the fotm theme.

I have a sorc and if i can find the right pet i can usually survive most situations until a FG come. I find it very hard to get grp's as a sorc even with my highish RR finding ppl in alb is apain staking so i do most of my work solo.

My only problem in solo is a Bonedancer Fair enuf u can mes him and his pet but nuke and break mes he just has to face and use insta LT. Unless he is a bit slow and i can get the 3 some times 4 hits i need.

Pinky.

archers needs a little nerf in range, and more dmg, most hit for 150 evry 4 sec oO, sorcs, BD insta interupts needs nerf, make it non interupting or just on a 10-15 sec timer. Cant say much about assas, they dont seem to pop much on me anymore, even when i dont got a pet (witch takes 4ever to get half the time as alb..)

i wont comment on the classes who is most powerfull in group or solo, because the buffbot's make some classes VERY nasty, where others are less affected by buffs.
The buffsystem in DAOC is what makes the most unballancing factors to the game, not the classes.

A ranged class that hits 150 every 4 seconds isnot buffed tbh

most TOA'd ranged chars should have 3 sec crit - 2/3 sec regular( unless they using 5.8 spd bow which would be 4sec crit 3 sec regular)

150 dmg smells like rapid fire, which tbh would be every sec or so.

OPd chars? BD's, SM's, Chanters

Mids have healer/cc in one class
Albs have dmgdealer/cc/petclass in one class
Hibs have backuphealer/cc/utility in one class
