About "BALANCE"

[monw]

<DIV>I am not complaint about wizard dps but talking about balance.</DIV> <DIV>There are many subclass in EQ2 world.</DIV> <DIV>Best way to balance is all class can be heal like a prist doing dps like a Assassin Tanking like a Berserker and Mezing like a Coercer but this will make game with no fun.</DIV> <DIV>So game will dev to be a major skill in all subclass.</DIV> <DIV>In all subclass we are strong in something and weak in something.</DIV> <DIV>About Balance........This is very easy to do it.</DIV> <DIV>Just "Strong" all the major skill. I don't know how many dev staff in SOE EQ2 team. This is really funny.</DIV> <DIV>I can't image what are they think about balance.I can't believe if they have been played any game before.</DIV> <DIV>There is a easy way to thinking about balance.I will say again "Just Strong all the major skill"</DIV> <DIV>Just make a Fighter to be a real tank plz,Mage to be a real caster,priest to be a real healer and buffer.</DIV> <DIV>For examp. in same lvl if a Berserker AC 2000 DPS 80  a Wizard AC 1000 what DPS Wizard should get it?I think DPS about 160 is "Balance".</DIV> <DIV>If Assassin AC 1600 DPS 100  Wizard AC 1000 then DPS 150 is balance.</DIV> <DIV>I don't understand about balance now. Assassin with high AC and high DPS.What is a Wizard major skill now?Wizard major in weak only now. IF you are trying to make a weak class in game.Just delete this class in the game Plz.</DIV> <DIV>You bettter give Assassin best heal skill than a prist and give Assassin get best tank skill and AC than a warrior.So you can make a superman in the game.</DIV> <DIV>There are so many skill you can strong it for subclass.</DIV> <DIV>In healer class ...... You can make an major in CHing subclass;major in guickly Healing subclass;major in regen subclass.Just make their major skill powerful.</DIV> <DIV>In mage class........You can make majoi in  pet subclass;major in Mez subclass;major in DD subclass;major in AE subclass;major in Stun subclass;major in Dot Subclass.Just make their major skill powerful.</DIV> <DIV>In fight class .........you can make major AC tank subclass;major quickly tanking subclass;major AE tanking subclass.</DIV> <DIV>You can make all subclass to be a best subclass. Everyone will be welcome in group.</DIV> <DIV>I am sorry for my poor English. I am not major in English. I come from Taiwan.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>The real problem with EQ2 is that the devs made a game kin to communism....they wanted to make everyone do the exact same thing which is utter nonsense.  There are no subbclasses in eq2 (at least I think that's what they were going for)...SoE wants all warrior types to tank and all mage types to....do...utility spells?  Same goes for the other classes and the reason the scout class does the most damage is because they modeled it after the rogues and ranjas of eq1 which were primarily DPS...not all robe casters were DPS in eq1 so wizards dont do dps (still confused on what the mage archtype is supposed to do though).  In other words, we shouldnt be argueing to "get" better spells, we need to be argueing for them to take away our buffs and ghetto mez spells in order to even justify an increase in DPS.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>EQ2 needs a complete rewrite at this point and some strat put back into the game....this vanilla sh*t has to go.  There was nothing wrong with EQ1 and they should have just tagged on some new features and given the game a better graphics engine then put a part "2" on game which couldn't be more opposite of part "1"...BTW, WoW resembles EQ1 far better then EQ2 does.</DIV>
