That makes sense, I didn't realize the SL gear would be that much better. I guess I need to start questing over there then :noob:

Hey all, I stopped playing Rift a little over a year ago and from what I remember I had pretty decent level 50 gear. A mixture of dungeon drops and PvP gear.

My mage has a purple level 50 staff...

Which is why the macro system works, I don't want to keep glancing at my hotbar to see if those reactives are available, I want to watch the fight.

I think Vanguard had a better system for...

Right but I think he's talking about souls with a ton of non-GCD abilities/reactives, like the champion. If you dodge/parry at the same time you get a crit you can fire off 4 or 5 skills within one...

11111
12345

I can actually press 12345 faster, it's much like playing a piano.

Maybe if we didn't have so many damn reactive abilities.

IMO, having all reactives in one button makes for a much more enjoyable experience. I get to actually watch the fight rather than looking...

Not sure about others, but I've been working on my alts. I still play, just not on my level 50.

What I got out of the OP:

"Let's talk about what is wrong with this game so I can figure out why I'm not having fun."

LOL, I've seen a ton of seizure fighters lately. I didn't know they had a name, but that name is perfect for how they move around.

I'm guessing they have the additional mouse buttons to program...

Orly?

I forgot, speccing in to something that is actually fun to play is the wrong way. Moar DPS!

I gotta agree. I tried Darkfall for a couple of days, I just couldn't get used to the UI or the combat mechanics. It felt like I was playing a game from 1996.

That's pretty much all people do in here, hold in the right mouse button while holding A or D, then mash macro hotkeys... yeah, that takes tremendous skill.

The only difference is more tactics...

Sure. That solo guy is totally going to have to press his keyboard buttons extra hard.

I find it hilarious that people brag about their "mad skills" in pvp in this game. Anyone can roll a 2...

These so called "Good PvPers" that I keep hearing about, from what I gather, they want skill based PvP with no gear or weapon modifiers. They want team death matches. They want balanced classes....

This list is pointless, since armor doesn't mitigate magical damage. A fireball is going to hit just as hard with plate as it will with cloth armor.

Most souls use magical damage, even some of...

Rift: Planes of QQ. :mdr2:

We all know what's going to happen here. Eventually all callings will be doing equal DPS. Clerics will be the best healers, Warriors will be the best tanks, and Mages will have the best CC.

Let...

Awesome response, thanks, I'm sure the devs will appreciate it as much as I do.

Looking at that list, don't you agree that Warriors could use at least one other role, or are you happy with where...

What's the Warriors specialty again?

Cleric: Healer, rDPS, mDPS, Support, Tank
Rogue: rDPS, mDPS, Support, Tank, Off-Healer
Mage: Healer, rDPS, Support, Off-Healer

Warrior: mDPS, Tank
...

You do know that most warriors wear leather for the crit bonus right?

Besides, armor is only physical mitigation, it does nothing to mitigate magical damage, which is about 90% of incoming...

Ask anyone what a Rogue means to them, it will most likely be an image of an assassin sneaking around ganking people.

This is Rift, not D&D or WoW, the standard "class roles" do not apply. ...

From what I remember, rogues were being left out of groups/raids before they were patched. Their main complaint was that warriors could out dps them ranged via RiftBlade/Paragon, so they had no...

When I maximize Rift, real-life speeds up. 4 hours can go by in the blink of an eye.

On my R6 rogue, I get my *** handed to me when I go up against a warrior that blocks my bleeds.

I'm not sure which warrior soul it is, but it basically reflects my bleed damage back at me....

The original plan was to have alternatives. For example, if you have a group that needs a tank, and no warriors are present, you could have a rogue or cleric do the tanking. If a healer is needed,...
