I'm still confused by people being concerned about anything being OP like mercs or BL's at levels other than 90 since all of that is temporary.

Because some people like to do battlegrounds at T4, where Beastlords are ridiculously overpowered. That's one reason; I'm sure there are others. For example, you might not think my complaint is "valid," but at this point I'm not seeing any reason to continue playing such an absurdly over-powered class. So, in my case, it's not "temporary" at all. My BL is 37th level, & the idea of playing this LOLOP thing for 53 more levels, just so I can finally see it become slightly more in-line with other classes, makes my skin crawl.

As for how SOE will handle Beastlords: all you need do is look at their history of dealing with over-powered classes. They have not ever, to my knowledge, buffed other classes to the level of the OP one; they have, instead, always nerfed the OP class. This is because they'd have to re-tune the rest of the game to match the new power levels of the newly buffed classes, as opposed to simply tuning BLs down to what the rest of the game is tuned to.

O, yes: there will be nerfs.
