How OP is ench?
 

Here's what inspired me to ask:

I enjoyed playing the ench in OOM missions on live and I also played a chanter to ~71. I boxed off/on. One thing I noticed is how hard it can be, esp. to charm. They SEEM powerful, but it's much trickier in practice.

How common has it been on p1999 for players to complain about overpowered enchanters?

No one complains about Enchanters. They are very OP though. Best class in game when played well.

Enchanter on P99 has a high power ceiling, they can be very powerful but require a lot of involvement in order to achieve that power.

The downside to enchanters are

- you're nothing special, everyone has an ench main or alt
- raiding on an ench is dreadfully tedious
- you can only farm that many flawless diamonds or ruby crowns before you're sick of this game

Why would anybody complain about an enchanter? Everybody either wants haste of some sort, mind buffs, or to group with you.

Enchanters are a blast, but definitely require attention due to the instability of the one thing that makes the class so powerful to begin with. Maxed or close to maxed charisma helps a ton, but even then you need to be paying attention lest you wind up a soft splatter of red and hair on the wall.

Bards piss me off.

FTFY

It's probably the hardest class to play well, so it makes sense that it's the most powerful. It's so much work to play one at that level, though. I like my necro because I get most of that power with about 1/4 of the work, plus being able to FD and go AFK. When you go AFK as a chanter, there's 100% chance charm will break and eat you within a second of taking your eyes off the screen. And the 255 CHA just means the pet will laugh while it's eating you.

imaging having a pet festering hag

then imagine killing it for full xp after it kills one for u

scale that up to end game

the end

Enchanters might be OP, but we need them to be on p99. On daybreak things are just way too easy and so being strong is an actual problem that can make the game less fun. Things are still hard enough on p99 that no matter which OP class you are, it's still fun, because it's still risky.
