So we went from OP wars to OP mages:

[Romulus]

This statement with your signature is ridiculously funny, no offense....

Every patch someone has to be OP, first it was Warriors, now it's Mages, next it'll be someone else. There is no possible way to make every single class equal unless you make every single class the exact same thing. At that point you have a FPS.

I vote they make the NPC's OP next patch

/nods

[Ditto]

I'm not joking. Its the same guy.

oh god..... this game IS doomed. hate to sound like negative nancy but if you played Warhammer you should be able to see into the future of pvp for this game & its very grim. If you didn't play Warhammer.... well you guys are in for a pretty wild ride when it comes to balance changes. It took them MONTHS in Warhammer to bring the main mage class down to par with the other classes. The Bright Wizard class used to be able to grab a healer or 2 & roll an entire warband(24 people) with just a little CC & some insane aoe damage. AoE dmg which the mage could use while hiding behind a tree & just targetting the ground where the enemies were, throw in an aoe snare & it was game over.

Rift pvp is gonna get a whole lot worse before it gets better.
In other news SOE is closing 3 of its studios & is having mass layoffs. Good luck Trion

[Joyous]

HAHAHAHA lol just saw it now Very funny.

Yeah. I'm a 51 Pyro! Adapt or Die!

No, seriously, we're OP :>

I'm adapting! I'm ada*FULMINATE CRITICALLY HITS UGAR FOR 5098 DAMAGE (598 OVERKILL)*

[MadGelo]

When the poster's class is op: Adapt or Die!
When someone else's class is op: Whine and Cry!

if you have no clue and just pot to troll, dont kiddy

[Capital]

Warriors face their opponent hit the spell button and do damage. That is what mages do now as well (with the obligatory cast time of course).

Previously; mages had to face target hit spell button, wait for cast timer, then face target a second time to do damage.

Your obsession with OP'ness is slightly disturbing. We should all clamor for balance and not an unfair advantage such as melee had with breaking spell casts by pillar humping the mage like a dog in heat.

you're right, and honestly people shouldn't be debating this. without any sort of collision, it's really only fair. however, in that short amount of time, is there any other class that hits so hard at this point? not only that, but gos is just ridiculous. if there's no place to hide or use los, it's just plain stupid to attack a pyro at this point, especially as a rogue.

edit: i really wouldn't have so much of a problem with the current opness of mages, pyros specifically, if they died just as easy.

[Xvvt]

No, we went from op pyros, champs, and sabs to GODLIKE pyros.

[Capital]

if you have no clue and just pot to troll, dont kiddy

no clue? read your own sig dude. you're proving yourself to be an idiot.

don't tell people to adapt or die, then question changes. you yourself needs to adapt, or die.

[pburn883]

No, we went from op pyros, champs, and sabs to GODLIKE pyros.

pyros arent op... they're still squishy and interruptible as hell ..... just hit em noobs

[Capital]

pyros arent op... they're still squishy and interruptible as hell ..... just hit em noobs

says the pyro

[Joyous]

pyros arent op... they're still squishy and interruptible as hell ..... just hit em noobs

... lol.

"China doesn't have a lot of people in it, its a small country, wtf, noobs, just bomb them"

[MadGelo]

no clue? read your own sig dude. you're proving yourself to be an idiot.

don't tell people to adapt or die, then question changes. you yourself needs to adapt, or die.

again, no clue


Im just doubting the credebility of whoever is behind the damn ballancing

[Imohtep]

Pyro's do hit hard but they are a whole lot easier to kill and deal with than Sabs and Rift/Champs were.

[Dooger]

Pyro's do hit hard but they are a whole lot easier to kill and deal with than Sabs and Rift/Champs were.

No they are 100% harder to kill than either, immune to CC, shielded and 50% DR. One you can deal with sure.

Its now formations of bright wizards (errr pyros) up front chain stunning or insta killing people. 7k BOOM, stun stun BOOM

Gersh is the slayer of warhammer, and he is feasting on Trion.


Adapt or die? players jsut leave games like this, its the devs here that better take a look back at warhammer and realize what gersh is doing again. They better figure ou fast, t revolt or die is their new motto.

Actually scratch that, its not jsut players that will leave, entire guilds are now actively planning on leaving.
Letting pvp servers fill up unevenly so we have 40 minute+ wf Qs, buffign pyro damage, leaving rogue mdps hosed.. its jsut not playable or fun sitting around with long waits

[Ditto]

holy cow..... it IS Gersh leading these changes... game over...

now we just need Barnett to do some absurd youtube vid talking about how the changes are going to be amazing & that there's big plans in the works but they're SO big that they just can't talk about them yet. Please keep putting the people who don't pvp in charge of the balance changes, brilliant thinking.

[achuu]

The man behind the fiasco that was Bright Wizards in Warhammer is behind it here How's that make you feel?

warhammer had the greatest potential, and lies now in a ruin because of the worst game development decisions EVER. now, RIFT, the game has no potential to begin with; i can't even get myself to log on and i'm only lvl 29.

but to know the same guy stands behind this failure, that's funny.
