Unbalanced.

[ICON]

Your all missing the point... Talking about pve situations. Archers will be the top class in PVP no doubt! They will be 1 or 2 hitting wiz's and sins 2-3 hitting Taos.

so a group of 3 archers would be able to just run around 1 hitting pretty much everything and everyone?

 

[Shane/Banshee]

Potentially same with 2 or 3 ffing wizzys?

 

[demonical]

Wow people complaining when server not been up even 24hr... Archers seem like a ranged assassin, they are good early on but level off later on it seems.

Agree about the exp buffs, be better if they wasn't in game. I was under the impression that the game shop was just to cover server costs, the prices and amount of people playing will make thousands each week, not that I begrudge the team making a profit. They put in the hard work so should make something.

So über rare skills will balance other classes with archers? Lol

they wont be 1hitting naff all, every class is pretty well balanced but if you cant work out how to use a class to its advantage then that's your problem.... let me explain for you? Warriors have high ac/amc and high dps with flamesword, also have BA and tdb to catch us with and slow us down/smash our faces in... wiz have raged attacks which hit aoe like firebang/firewall, taos have pets and poison...... assassins can sneak up on us and 1hit? if not they have decent agility etc.. you seem to be forgetting that archers have very small amount of hp and unlike other classes we don't have buffs (that im aware of) to increase our armour class, spells to hide/protect us i.e. shield or pets to mess us up. Get a grip you cant possibly moan about a server and damage rating at lvl 14..

You obviously didn't play closed beta?

lcl 40+ archers were 1 hitting taos wizes and sins.

 

[Jungle123]

the only people defending archers are archer players lol

personally, i wish i hadnt bothered with an assasin and picked an archer.... which i guess could be same about most people.

werent these issues raised in beta?

 

[ICON]

They will eventually be nerfed, it's just a matter of time.

its either that or 75% of the server will be archers

 

[Carribean]

archer is a single dps class. they are going to hurt. they also have very low health and no shield so how the **** are they unbalanced and decent war or sin can 1/2 hit them. highest players are what 24/25? and already the complaints have started

Let me guess... You play archer ?

 

[mStation]

people will learn how to defend themselves from archers..

i am sure the beta was put in place to check everything and see how things worked.. if the issue were so big it would have been looked at..

let's just try to play and learn something new from this class and maybe in 2 weeks time let's see what has to be done

 

[Carribean]

no i do not, but people complain at low levels when they don't let the game pan out. For instance if archers weren't in-game people would be kicking of about sins dps and how fast they kill, when 33+ they even completely out with a warrior .The community always has to whine about something , chill out and play the game if people put as much effort into levelling as they did writing posts to nerf one class or another they would all be level 40 by now .

 

[NightScare]

didnt even think the gameshop was usable yet?

 

[Noobius]

War- SD to archer, FS,TDB archer dead.
Never played assassin so no nothing about them or there spells.
Mage-bubble t-Bolt x a few bubble t-bolt maybe a FW archer dead.
Tao- pet poison SFB heal repeat.

wait till 3 wiz with FF come at u.

Now everybody plays just one char but in time pple who didn't start archer now will start him as a second char and soon will have feel for the balance first hand.

As for exp buffs, IMO leveling is so crucial to mir that exp rate should be holy and shouldn't be touched via some purchases, appart from some 'exp events' which again shouldn't be the norm or too radical. Best like on euro in its earlier 'golden' days when exp 'event' would be put on only as a compensation for some server downtime.

 

[Skyline]

They do hit hard, but hardly any HP so really they should die quite a lot.

Don't see any issues myself so far - Yes i play Archer but I'll no doubt roll a warrior soon instead.

yes and considering that you could receive exp boosts through qfunction means that if they want to benefit everyone on the server with a fixed exp boost for a specific time after a downtime they could do it..

for instance they could allow on login a script to give the exp boost for one hour even if you log in a few days after the downtime.. and they could potentially save the exp boost when you log out so that everyone get's the boost in a fair way and for the same ammount

as you said, i really don't like GS where you can buy exp boost.. even if it only 1.2 for 1 hour because people could use this 1.2 for all the ingame time they make

and if math is not an opinion this means that 5 hours of 1.2x = to 6 hours of normal exp
50 hours equal to 60.. and so on

Exp boost is fine in my opinion.

I personally don't see it useful all that much for £2 a pop lol. If people want to buy it, they won't make THAT much ground...I know someone who has it and I'm still making better headway than him lol

I'm simply the better leveler, no 1.2 boost will change that. No I'm not an Archer, but he is and to make matters worse I'm a Tao lol .

Not like I have it easy keeping up

 

[Skyline]

Also, I dislike EXP pot's from gameshops, but 1.2 for an hour isn't too bad in all fairness.

Just hope they don't start putting x2/3/4/5 etc in ;-)

Exactly, 1.2 is a nice amount.

There isn't a free game alive that won't have some sort of exp boost. As long as it doesn't go stupid, I'm happy
