Also saying that people should have to Tash/Malo someone to be able to CC them is beyond retarded. The odds of people having access to resist buffs in PVP is like 90%+ especially for melee. No fkin melee runs around alone without a duo partner or a group.
Another idiotic quote from someone who's never played on a PvP server. Probably the majority of people I saw on Sullon Zek, including myself, solo PvP'd during Velious era. Occasionally you saw caster duos like Dharma and Greg or 2 Darkenbanes but that's it.

Your statement about everyone being "perma-grouped" was completely fictional and made up. Don't post about what PvP balance is when you've never even played on a PvP server. I'm not playing on some bullshit "forced grouping" or "forced zerging" server when soloing is viable in real EQ.

Here you go with your stupid Test of Tactics story again. Guess what? I was in Test of Tactics too, you're not special. I also played on an actual PvP server, you didn't.

On a real, pre-PoP, PvP server, not the imaginary server in your head, the amount of bards is so low, that designing the entire resist system specificaly around bards is about the dumbest thing you can possibly do.

There was only maybe 2 level 60 bards on the entire evil team pre-luclin (Rodlase and Pino) and like 1 on neuts (Agrul). I don't think the entire good team even had a bard except level 5 Fansy.

Trying to claim bards are some enormous PvP factor on a pre-luclin PvP server just makes you look more stupid than words can describe. Even if they show up, WHO CARES, Null already made the direct damage system so nukes always land on them.

I'm tired of seeing all these stupid changes to destroy PvP solely in the name of bards, a class that maybe 1% of the population or less plays.
