oh men's of wah..err, ex-passion

[Kowaru]

well if you've been looking through lucy lately they've seen the basic spell data for the expansion. i know i know its not final nothing ever is now adays. but from like every single expansion it gives an idea of what the final spells would be like. and well its like every single expansion! well for rangers at least. pure melee get even better disc's while hybrids get screwd (http://images.somethingawful.com/inserts/articlepics/photoshop/05-14-04-magazines/Heinekren.jpg).

here look the new ranger DD nuke, rendering the GoD spells worthless.

are you happy you wasted the time to get them? just wait until you see the loot! its

its funny (http://images.somethingawful.com/inserts/articlepics/photoshop/05-14-04-magazines/dot_matrix.jpg), up to lvl 50 a ranger/sk/pld are all balanced compared to a warrior, but after that they all take a plundge downward. their normal hybrid class spells gone, get half assed (http://images.somethingawful.com/inserts/articlepics/photoshop/05-14-04-magazines/BipolarBitch.jpg) disciplines and the warrior part in them seem to dissapear. and instead of getting great class spells or abilities, we get crappy stuff that "help" out others, great we're support classes now. rangers get call of pred line, paladins get brells line, beastlords get that hp/mp regen buff i always click off, sk's get...er they get the shaft (http://images.somethingawful.com/inserts/articlepics/photoshop/04-23-04-art/Redrazors.jpg) actually. before they add more expansions they need to fix the classes!

All the wizard spells are still copies of our GoD spells with new names like Omens DD and Omens Shield Buff.

We need 3.5k base damage! 10k crits! Wizards need bigger ego's! :eek:

LOL WTF thread was open for 1hr 20mins and oop! okay no ranger complaints.. moving on! Is he trying to draw hate or what?!1

[Kowaru]

they just totally fucked up the ranger class its not even worth trying to argue about.

i mean, lvl 10 warrior + lvl 5 druid = basic ranger lay out. compare to a lvl 15 warrior, its EVEN. ranger will tank less than the 15 warrior but it gains the lvl 5 druid power. its not that fucking hard.

but eq turns this shit around gives us worthless party support spells, nukes i never use, heals that are less than useful, some shitty AA's and utterly worthless 5 hour reuse discs. not to mention they handicap the lvl 10 warrior part of the whole ranger build. its sort of like the whole columbine thing, it happend but i just couldn't believe it and it leaves me speechless nothing anyone can do or say can fix it.

ranger class = dead. pld/sk's they may have hope. but based on what they did in GoD, instead of fixing the knights making them tank better, they pussied down the encounters............am i missing something here?

Just incase people were too lazy to check the thread. Check the times haha.

Hey Rangers,

What AAs would you like to see in Omens of War? Remember that any ideas suggested may or may not be used.

Thanks all!

Brenlo

AND after 4 people posted....

Okay folks,
There are plenty of threads for general ranger concerns. Please post there. This was a chance for those of you who, every expansion, complain about the AAs released to give your thoughts and opinions. As it seems no one has any AA suggestions to offer here, I will be closing this thread.

Thanks all.

Brenlo

If these are the spells they are thinking about for shamans (I know that things can still change), Im still very much disapointed. We have these spells already.. Can they not think of anything new and a little more beneficial for higher end raids/encounters?

Looks like to me they have are just re-using what we already have to make it look like we get something new. Im starting to not like this expansion either.
