Am I hearing things right?

Player A shouts: this server sucks, it doesn't like AC on archers. they want to make sure that archers are the worse class in the game.

Me: You can get plenty of AC, almost the same as anyone without a shield.

Player A: not if I want stealth gear's.

Me: So you want archers to get high AC and stealth gears?

Player A: yes, then it would be fair to us archers.

Now you guys see what I have to deal with from time to time. And the type of players I have to weed out from day to day when they make suggestions.

This ranks what up there with the fighter that told me mages were overpowered. I might actually have credit for the individual if he had anything but AC gear on. The mage was his only enemy he was fighting. The guy didn't even have a piece of DR against the mage let alone some saves.

Argh if archers get plenty of ac and still have stealth im out of the server.
Player A is a noob, archers are already powerful/annoying the way they are atm.

doesn't surprise me, thats for sure.

maybe thats the same player that said mages were underpowered.

Well if it's not fair for archers then for who? They only get killed by other sneaks or mages so...

archers are made how ever you want them to be made sneak archers who shoot and run then hide are going to have less AC because of the stealth gear

but i know for a fact that archers can get AC because i have seen casas build an archer that could stand up agianst some meeles but yes he did run 90% of the time which was annoying and thats why people moaned at him and i think they are right why make a non stealth archer pack him full of ac and runs all of the time

last night when i was on the server i came across a player called nedlin i think who is an archer but he doesnt even have to run and he can take on 2 barbs and a sneak at the same time

player A doesnt even know what he is talking about and i bet he hasnt even bin playing the game long enough and its exactly the same fact that he will get in any other server

mages are very powerfull even if the pure meele is pack full of anti mage gear a mage can easy tear the pure meele apart i have even had first hand experience of that

i remember fighting drunken with my old DFL char his saves were higher then drunkens by far and i packed him full of anti mage gear DR to elements and all of that and yet i remember drunken still being able to kill me with just 4/5 spells and DFL had about 300HP i think

Like I said Rary, only a few players on this server know what balance entails.. only listen to them. Disregard the nuts.

Only a few builds can sneak AND get decent AC.

Those would be PMs and druids.

Or maybe hear those who are not counted to that small "inside-ring", those "few players on this server know what balance entails..".. Maybe they know something. But seriously, mages should not have that much spot items coz they can see most of sneaks nowadays...

mages should not have that much spot items

Of the few players who know what balance entails, one of them brought that up.

I can always limit the tureseeing ammy and +10 helmet to everyone but mages....

Does it really matter? Most mages use AOE spells for sneaks.

shame i cant keep my hands of my own >.<

and torm thats the piont i dont think mages need spot or listen since they have AOE spells all they need to do is play the waiting game when a sneak attacks and then runs round the cornor to fire first instinct to most people would be to fireball it or ice storm the cornor

Hm...so as I see it, spot/listen gear isn't a need for mages.

Rafael · Post by **Rafael** » Wed Apr 18, 2007 9:28 am

Wrong, mages should be able to hear/spot ranged sneak builds, because if they don't no mad spamming AOE spells in the world can save them ( I know it because my aa almost never gets killed if a mage does so) .

Then why not mess around with the AA instead of the mage, mages are being restricted a lot and are reaching their limit. So give the AA a handicap.
