I was a human ench on tz too. Started first month of tz and my brother help me make my character and we put pts into agil because we thought i would be able to run faster. It was a shitty choice until around velious or luclin when my AC was stacked and i could tank melee, also had raid gear.

-shitty stats across the board
-unlike high elf paladins no good wisdom to help compensate for shitty melee stats
-40% hybrid penalty

-normal size model unlike gnome

being a gnome warrior or even erudite paladin has somewhat of a cool factor. which means human enchanter = the shittiest combo

Smedy
11-03-2011, 10:26 PM
Gnome Rogue shouldn't be on that list, the ability to instantly see through walls as a rogue in dungeons is crucial for special pvp tactics (attack the group exping while they have mobs).

How is gnome warrior worse than gnome rogue? It's pretty hard to lose to a rogue while playing a warrior.

Softcore PK
11-04-2011, 02:48 AM
Warrior as a class is going to be very hard to play here. Not because of pvp, but in pve they're tanks that have a very hard time holding agro.

Kain
11-04-2011, 03:41 AM
I think the biggest issue here is the xp loss from death as a gnome warrior.

You can't run, you can't kill. You might not get groups based upon your race.

So you solo a few hours then get ganked and lose it all.

i don't know how human enchanter is even on the list. they're ugly as sin but stats on a caster don't matter very much and the human's stats aren't even that bad. their deficit in int (laughably easy to increase with stat gear, assuming you even really care to increase it) is made up for by their high str and stam.

Softcore PK
11-04-2011, 01:15 PM
Erudite cleric, gnome rogue, half elf ranger and human enchanter don't belong on list. Add half elf druid, gnome cleric imo.

and the warrior doesn't have to be gnome, can be any race.

11-04-2011, 01:19 PM

not everyone is going to be running around south karana / OoT until lvl 50.

higher damage tables, innate MR, best hp/ac (after an AC fix presumably), these things are all going to make warriors formidable opponents indoors.

This thread wasn't specifically about pvp. Good luck making it to 50 as a tank that can't hold agro :P

gnome rogue definitely belongs, worst statted rogue imo.

warriors have always had problems with aggro, to a point. however the time you lose exping with a warrior because of aggro issues is made up for with the exp bonus that he subsidizes to the group.

and at 50 it isn't really an issue anymore.

Dark elves have worse rogue stats. And the exp bonus is so so so slight it won't help in the least.

11-04-2011, 01:36 PM
Just group with a Shadowknight, problem solved. Or if not, Obsidian Shards help out tremendously with aggro retention.

Yeah... Softcore apparently has no fucking clue what she is talking about.

Warriors hold aggro fine. Just can't be a dunce.

10%?

compare a 10% warrior bonus to a 68% deficit with a troll sk. it makes a huge difference. warriors level up literally twice as fast. when that bonus is distributed to the group it means a 16% increase in the amount of exp the party receives when compared to a troll sk.

now tell me that receiving literally 16% more exp per kill is not worth having to root a mob or two now and then.

Softcore PK
11-04-2011, 01:40 PM
Of course, if you can afford to twink your warrior agro isn't as much of a problem. But I did level to my 30s on blue99, and even extremely twinked warriors could not hold agro over monks/rogues, from what I saw.

And the 10% is very slight when grouped, yes.

Where are you getting 16%? I don't know how the math works, but I assumed the % bonus would be divided by the number of party members.

EDIT: oh, compared to SK.

11-04-2011, 01:49 PM
plus warriors are better dps. i have no problem accepting a warrior in a group for dps. they're behind rogues and monks but not a lot (depending on weapons of course) and would require less healing and aggro control. accepting a knight or paladin in a dps role would be silly.

Softcore PK
11-04-2011, 01:54 PM
That's very true. Warrior is dps, and their exp bonus will help to balance out the penalty from the MT :P

Haha yeah an erudite paladin with no spells could probably still tank with taunt.

I have other horrible suggestions but they're practically unplayable.

Ranger that can't track, rogue that can't sneak/hide. Bard that can't sing. Uhh monk that can't auto attack? Probably end up having your own group kill you lol.

Honestly I think playing a warrior will be it's own hell in itself, ogre or not.

Was actually a pretty genius idea.....Rogean/Nilbog/Null could make a server like that if not better. Doubt theyd put PvP in it tho.

Winters Roar did get shut down tho for a while before Shards of Dalaya opened. Was a big day in Scorpious2k's life cause we had like a rush of 30 people join us. But still.....Would be cool if when P99 shut down, so in like 2-5 years, they took the EQ client, zone layout (Maybe with added parts) but completely customized it. Such as mobs/quests/classes even. (especially with the dumbass classes, aka druid, which is worthless 30+ besides porting) put slow ass xp rate, non-solo oriented with the exceptions, aka pet classes + druid, but still better in grps. Kinda drunk so i could write a 3 page essay on this so ima stop now. but you get the idea. ITD BE COOL
