Guards're broken on a rational level as well as "as admitted by Verant." Exp penalties, however, make sense on a rational level for hybrids, esp. in classic where Knights are used as tanks in raids (I suppose I'd agree that rangers do not deserve exp penalties, but they serve to dissuade people from playing rangers [You must be logged in to view images.

All I know is when I do a /who all 1 50 ranger during prime time and there are only 13 non-anon rangers and at level 32, I'm the highest level non-anon ranger on the server, some shit's broken. Or a lot of rangers are /anon because they're embarrassed to be rangers. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Meanwhile, druids/chanters/necros/bards/mages are running around soloing, named farming, quad-kiting, AE-song kiting shit with ease. You tell me where that 40% class XP penalty should be to compensate for "super powerful abilities of the class" :P

I think my memory has faded a bit, but I don't remember the pets being this strong. A level 20 pet, double attacking and duel wielding consistently every attack round, happens all the time now.

Used to play as a melee class on a pvp server 1999-2001(Vallon) and I never had an issue with mages Lvl 15-35ish. Now an even level mage pet could easily pwn 2-3 same level melee types, let alone the casting from mage...ouch.
