Monk FD with a 10 sec refresh or whatever is just plain lame and OP. Ruins immersion when same mob sees you flop 10 times in a row and doesn't think to just rip your guts out.

I mean, you could make this argument about a million mechanics in the game...

Mages get root, it is called an earth pet, next.

What I was going to say.

Original EQ devs didn't have a clue, and its more luck then anything that the game turned out as it did.

Every class found a home though, WoW had half the classes and group comps were the same old shit a lot of the time.

EQ keeps it interesting, some of the best groups are of 3+ classes who aren't supposed to be well suited but the group finds a way to make it work. Rogues pulling, rangers tanking, druid/paladin working together on heals, wizards actually getting some group time... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

A lot of folks dont realize that paladins get the big dick heals too its just no specialization. The mana pool on wisdom isnt bad either

Rogues should really have a 'vanish' effect that removes them from combat and makes them invis.

Wrong MMO, you might want to try a more cartoonist and lazy teenager friendly one 😁

Because in hindsight the classes were comically unbalanced. In 1999 They didn't have much examples to know how screwed up they would be.

Rogues got escape at pop
