None, just require 2 very different types of skill.

Casters need overview[Of own, and enemy group, if grouped, picking targets that are vounerable or needs interrupt], positioning [try not to be targetted etc], reaction, control over his power/end etc.

Assassain needs knowledge of surroundings[Fast routes to flee after a kill, to know if there are stealthers nearby], reaction, quick to react with different styles, in-combat movement, Timing.

probly tons more, but you get my drift.

I find it easier to play caster, because I have played caster-type classes more than assassain-type.

voted caster but should of voted nocare - as previously mentioned both need certain skills to cope. but an asn can just pa and run, and a caster can nuke and run -.-

Depends on what u see as a caster i cant see a bonedancer or a warlock as a caster in no way

if some of you vote casters because of this 2 classes i believe that u made a big mistake they should be in another class of things like mid-semi-casters or something.........

actually in this case if all classes that cast for a bit was mentioned like a caster then paladin got self shield and champion self buff str/con thats a caster? definetly not :p

depends tbh, if caster is a zerging caster bridgecamping and whatnot or runs in a GG, and assassins, if they group up and just farm or actually *gasp* solo.

Many stealthers who've never played a group character will only have seen casters around zergs and/or adding on their fights, simply because the good 8v8 fights rarely take place near where stealthers go. Equally many casters who've never played a stealther or solo melee character will only have seen the stealthers who add on their group fights etc, and won't understand that there are 'honerable' stealthers. So many people who have only played one or the other will get the wrong impression, and assume that the small crosssection of such players they know represent the majority.

Easymode is prob 3 diff things depending on what realm you are playing.
hib: baseline stun
alb: sorc bolt range area mess
mid: hmmm since WL is out of the rvr game im not sure. il give pac healers a shot with insta area stun insta area mess.

btw.. we all whine about our problems here.. and still 1000 million people wake up every morning not been able to get fresh water.
180 million children die every year from diseases already cured in the western world
i could go on.

contribute to save the children foundation if you care..

when i play my zerker, i think casters are overpowered

when i play my theurgist, i think tanks are overpowered

when i play my spiritmaster, i think the game is balanced between tank and caster xD

its a casters game. 100ways to cripple or reduce melee dmg and only a handful of way to reduce caster dmg, main one being interrupts and u can buy an RA that counters that quite nicely... MoC.

with all the anti-melee shit in game now they should take a good hard look at bg/grapple because imo some adjustment is needed there. also should be alot more chance ways to reduce caster dmg such as magic ablatives etc as well as more anti-magic artifact charges/mls/cls.

tanks with bls down are pretty much free rps atm.

Agree... any fully toa'd caster is easy mode... guaratee they might die alot more than stealthers do.. but i bet they make double the rp's easy possibly even triple

It depends really imo, some Casters are really easymode and same goes for Asassins, and also depending on how they play.

Group fights is what requires most skill imo.

I voted for option 3. My inner pedant prevented me from voting for any options with apostrophe abuse. ;)

If it hadn't, I'd have voted for 1. :)

But what is the point of the this pull ?

You havent given any parameters for the pull, just throw out a strange question.

Stealthers who kill nothing but casters in solomode = easy mode
Casters who only kills stelathers in stealthmode = real hard mode (since you cant see them its pretty hard to earn rps)

Was that what you were asking ?

Im guessing you are just after getting some sort of pointless score across ?

Stealthers are easy mode quite alot of the time (basically all the time if you just discount all other stealthers in the game. Since you can choose your fight and no one can find you)

Casters are easy mode quit alot of the time. (in serg/siege fights mostly)

But to compare the two without giving a given set of parameters to judge from is...with running the risk of beein obvious...well stupid...

/Charmangle

ps. Abit drunk and pissed as hell so abit coloured comment...im sorry about that mate disregard the irony etc I just need something to let out some steam at..ds
