Let's talk CLASS BALANCE

[Zuranthium]

Please don't use references that are better suited towards what you're doing. Self-mockery isn't useful here.

I'm hardly saying the pet in and of itself is overpowered, I'm saying what a Shaman can do is already very powerful and the pet is an extra ability they should not have and it just makes the class as a whole that much more (over)powered. It doesn't matter if it is a relatively weak pet, it still adds DPS at essentially no cost. This ability also goes against the flavor of what a Shaman should be doing in comparison to a Druid. The fact is, the pet is helpful and that's why you use it frequently. If it wasn't useful then you wouldn't use it...hmm, now where have I seen this before? Oh, right, Druid animal charms.

oh well, what can you do, they are not doing any of the shit you suggested becouse it does not match the purpose of the server.

Game Class Balance vs. Adherence to the Source Material o noez what do we do? Guess flawed source material winz!

Is there anything in this thread/form of argument that I didn't manage to sum up in that first line?

[goodthink]

The charm of eq is that:

a) They were never really concerned with the types of balance you are advocating. Each class was it's own bubble and the only time Verant took action towards balancing was when some element of game play violated the specific vision for that class.

b) EQ was damn hard.


Now, what I don't get is how you can come to a server dedicated to emulating a classic server with classic progression and complain that they are too much like classic.

not supposed to be

Yes it is, to a degree, in a "hey, look what I can do, what can you do?" kind of way where the classes are able to do different things and they somewhat equal out in their usefulness overall.

So, this is just a huge whine thread since nothing will be changed.
