One character parked

<DIV>Spend one hour in DOF. And I have seen enough. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The new hate table system stinks. It was bad before. Its useless now. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Its buggy when you draw with a bow, taunting just doesnt work anymore. Invested all respec in taunt and strength. Still loose agro whatever buff/spell I use against a pally, in what seems a random way. Just pulling in general, when someone else does first spell hit is almost impossible to get agro back.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>MIgation is clearly broken. I am wearing ebon. Get more damage incomming then someone wearing fulganite.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I in no way mean to imply the game should become simple. But things ment for a class should bloody well work. I dont even feel like playing my 50 guardian anymore. Just had it. 10 months down the drain. Tx SOE.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I dont want to be an uber tank. I just want a character class that can actually DO something. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><sarcams> Right now, seems a respec in a master I pet would make me a tank. Can I petition for that?</sarcams></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The only thing that keeps me in the game right now is the friends I made online. Guess what happens when they leave?</DIV>

<DIV>Taunting works well and casts fast with fast recast times. Maddening defense is your best friend. You are complaining without justification because you haven't l;earned to play your character yet or require upgrades.</DIV>

<DIV>Sorry? Why should I depend on one spell to play? My taunts are all Master II, Adept I or higher with perhaps one exception. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I started this char in november last year. I played through several major changes in the game, both on artissan and adventurer. I also have a Templar, a Scout, a Paladin, a Conjuror and a Ranger. My Guardian is 50, the rest is around 30. My artissans are 50 armorer, 41 Mage, 41 Prov, 41 Tailor. I think I have played enough to say that I tried very much to keep up with the changes and the stuff SOE threw at me. Perhaps to much even.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I am asking myself why I keep forking money to SOE to get frustrated because they throw everything out after a few months. My conclusion is simple: I myself will keep my account for now,  but had enough stupidity from SOE. Moving on to another online game. Done deal.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

Our taunts are weak but we can hold agro it you work on it unless you have people unloading the /shrug. I do think taunt is broke in some ways,  I mean after going through 4 cycles of out 4 taunts, some CA's and I don't get agro back is kind of dumb and thats with the person that got agro not attacking any longer. Drop rescue down to 5min from 10min would ge a big help. Thats the only issues I have with the taunts atm. <div></div>

<P>Landin; seen just the same thing. Exactly the same. </P> <P>Tested scenario: someone hit a 50^ once, and let the guardian piano play all the hate/taunt spells. Often just does zilch (and for any reference again: Master, and Adept). No getting agro back.</P> <P>The core of this class on stats should be: keep/get agro and be able to sustain damage hits. Neither works. It is what is called broken, or bad design, plain ignorance from a dev point of view.</P> <P>I dont want to get through 3 hours setting up raids, or long quest; without being able to say with a certain good enough level that the stuff that is my part in the group works. Let alone that some other class does better then what is supposed to be our primary attributes (which I dont mind, at least they didnt get axed down). </P> <P> </P>

yup<img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> I mean I can see weaking our heat/taunt because really DPS shouldn't be able to just unload with out worry of getting agro. BUT we should be able to gain agro back if they they quit damaging it. I have even had it where I am cycling through my taunts/CA's trying to get agro off a caster ( hes doint ok tanking btw ) and when he does go down it goes after some one esle and not me.. I was like ok I give up, I'm just about out of power from trying get agro back and it goes to someone else.. SO dumb.. <div></div>
