I really only ever charmed hatchlings for Eashen and Vyemm...may have yolo'd one up to Koi and Lady M on a quake or two and about a dozen beers deep, but its not necessary on slowable mobs. Eashen is a no brainer...they're often running around the raid anyway. Healing is always tight on Vyemm since its remedy / natures touch spam. Unless your guild has 20+ Porlos wizards nuking their brains out from up top, your healers will thank you as they furiously chew through all the rods. I never had an issue with pathing / trains when charm broke in Vyemm pit...and you have tons of time to react as it runs up the ramp back towards you. | |||

The Enchanter class was just severely underplayed at first, was the main thing. So even if you did start to understand how great they were, there often wouldn't be one around to play with. They quickly rose in popularity though.

No, you don't see a 5 Mage 1 Ench leveling group that often, except for maybe when a new server spins up. The reason for this is because the group composition has one fatal flaw: Most of the group members are leveling Mages lol. XP groups are created by people who want to level the classes they want to play. They don't make Mages simply to maximize group DPS at the expense of not actually leveling the class they want to play. Just because that group composition may level fast on paper doesn't mean everybody wants to level a Mage. Grouping would see no significant slowdown of XP if Mages were deleted.

Obviously people don't want to only level Mages. But again, even a single Mage in a party is a significant boost to how quickly a typical group can kill. Deleting Mage from the game is inherently is going to slow down the grouping landscape a bit as compared to deleting Paladin. At least, assuming an even redistribution of classes in the "delete X class from the game" idea.
Paladin is worse at soloing than Mage, worse at duoing, worse for full groups the majority of the time, and generally less impactful for raids. They have a huge EXP penalty the first 22 months of the game. They do not have any unique ability that's especially impactful to the landscape of the game. By every metric they are the weaker class. And seriously, you need to stop with these dumb "a lot of people don't play that way" arguments. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THEY DON'T. THEY ARE PLAYING AT A LOWER POWER LEVEL. WHAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND.

Hmm good points… and paladins’ divine strength is only +125hp as in it’s absence you can get +75 from Strength of Nature …

I would rather a paladin in most XP groups honestly.
Pacify pulls, root for some cc, stuns for charm breaks and backup heals on top of solid tanking. Very useful class to have around. Mage is straight dps with malo for charm pets as a perk. Mage/paladin/enchanter actually a solid XP trio though. | ||

Again, this is why the conversation isn't going anywhere. You are off topic. Your topic is "most underpowered class assuming you are attempting to play at Zuranthium's definition of efficiency".

My own favored character (shadowknight) illustrates this: Overall its a weaker class than monk is. Does that mean I picked wrong in making it? Nope! The monk happens to do better in parts of the game I don't care about--raising its overall average--but they're pretty equal in the parts of the game I *do* care about, and I like being a plate tank type. Being worse in areas I ain't hanging out in anyway is irrelevant to me...but it might bother some folks intensely. Danth | |||
