People know where shit drops? well this goes for everyone sir. Are you telling us that casters dont know where the good things drop but the melees does?
Exactly everyone knows where everything drops and for months one guild farmed the entire server without being contested. I don't think classic resists we're balanced on what this server has become.

If you truly wanted balance you would have split Nihilum in half when it was just you guys on the server. BalancE > all

Have you noticed none of the NPCs here have ever said

"Time to die %t!" -- especially common if aggro'ing a town guard.

Yeah I catch things like that playing.. most people don't. That's one you might be able to agree with.

Where's the patch notes! Oh it wasn't broken on live.. just here [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

This is a low populated pvp server. Of course melees will be the least populated demographic. Resists have nothing to do with it.

The melee retention could be greatly improved with classic resists. Thats troublesome isnt it? thinking there could be more people on the server by changing the resist system.

Honestly the biggest reason there aren't more melees is because the pop is so low it can't sustain enough viable groups for them to all EXP in. I've seen quite a few melees rage quit and reroll in my day, and that's what it boils down to, not resists. Having said that, I think resists do need to be fixed.

I assure you if there was constant groupage there would be more melees. Again you dodge the real issue which is balance. If you are truely concerned about melees then how about you offer free pls? I promise you people will take you up on the offer and roll melee

Whatever I do will not change anything. I can pl a rogue to 50. sweet. that rogue gets killed by droolers casters over and over and quit.

Sweet. Sorry cant help you get 140 mr, Dear rogue. Enjoy the dirtnaps provided by unresistable spells.


What I can do though is lobby for a better/balanced resist systems. Which in turns makes melees more viable. Which in turns, makes people want to play more melees.

Again dont take extremes, Extremes isnt what new players/non-top end players on this server are living. I`m lucky and any melees in nihilum is lucky enough to have all best in slot raid gear for the most part, yea we'll do ok in the current resist system but joe buddy isnt as lucky.

Right.

And Heartbrand was smart unlike others who quit. A lot of people made human warriors and shit as their first characters, he made a mage. Personally I think you have to be dumber than a box of rocks to do that and those people can blame themselves. Further on that thought, you can't blame the system for people doing that.

^ Neither did guard assist which I said we should wait on, uh right? Other resident genuises were in the feelings of "no its fine lol just release it now now now now". Boy am I sorry anyone listened to them.

The VZTZ crowd thinks tstaffs were a 1 in 1,000,000,000 drop rate, that's why you see these comments Trollborn. Kind of like how they hit the ceiling when they find out 51 magic resist was enough to ignore root.
