Enchanter is the easiest class I've ever played and I'm not even remotely kidding.

Some people forget the principles of EQ where players and their classes are meant to work together and some classes are better than others (easier) but only in a sense because they are useless alone against most group-content.

This is by design, pointing it out is kinda silly and I don't think you understand why games were made like this to begin with. Goes back to game design principles but ya..

Wow, there was no 'design', the developers pumped up the classes they actually played. That is why the classes are so unbalanced. It was a scandal back in the day, the Fires of Heaven guild was revealed to be a guild of developers. The developers would release content and then Fires of Heaven would ALWAYS beat the content that same/next day. Who makes content then plays it?[You must be logged in to view images.

Was it though? Like if Brad played a Ranger then why were Rangers so bad? I’ve always wondered about that. I’m not saying you’re wrong either. I know this is certainly the case in WoW. The main devs have always been Mages, which is why mages have always been top tier.

I meant to add that a rogue named Kaylum on the Tunare server had full lustrous russet, and other absurd items that he didn’t get from raiding. The rumor was that GMs had given him the items as a reward for “helping” them. He also completed the Ragebringer quest as soon as it was released (I know it’s an easy quest, but we’re talking like under 2 hours — before anyone knew anything about any of the quests or items).

I looked up his name recently to find the thread about how he was one of the only players in the game who had lustrous russet 20 years ago, and how he didn’t get it from raiding, but instead I found a thread Kaylum had made 2-3 years ago where he admitted to being a GM for the game all along... so yeah... corruption was real AF

Oh really? So Brad liked Rangers and that’s why they’re the most leet class in the game?
