I feel that warriors are just at a huge disadvantage compare to other classes, not sure if its cause of the lack of DC or lack of velocity or even lack of damage spells, but im a level 26 warrior and i hit less than a level 16 archer or tao....takes me twice as long to kill 1 mob

I felt the same, I leveled a warrior to 17, saw an archer kill 4 zombies to my 1 and was sold instantly! I now have a level 22 archer and have died 4 times! lol i have about 95 hp ( i think thats with a hp stone as well) So they are great at early levels for DPS but at higher levels we will still only have very low hp and thats where i'll end up thinking i made a mistake and will look for gale rings and go back to the warrior.
on another note, the power of my archer seems to be mainly down to Spiritshot which has bonus damage against undead - but also costs 17 mp per shot (at lvl 3), which means eating lots of mp - with my warrior i found that i would make profit when i hunt, but when it comes to the archer i have had to go and hunt cash to be able to maintain the high dps - so it definitely comes at a cost ;-)
Archers may look like great characters, but wait until you are playing one and you are in the middle of a RS
their HP drops pretty fast so you might find the best thing to do is make friends with a couple, go on hunts with them (archers love taoists for red poison{seriously and truely taoists if you want to make a archer in your group happy, whack on some red poison } and warriors for tanks) and when you level you'll be able to return the favor by slapping down the pkers that nailed them with surprised attacks

Ou think wars are hard to level... Try being a low lvl sin... Doing like 10dmg while my mate archer in same gear is doing 60-70s.. And takes more dmg lol..

as a sin I'm just getting to the stage that killing is getting much faster... but I eat through both mana and hp very fast (double slash is awesome I never like to switch it off lol) so hunts are short and I have to run back (not moaning about this I like fast kills and very low health that's why I chose assassin)
warriors should be able to stay on hunts much longer and tank the subs (that kill me in 3 hits) so slower killing may pay off in that way, just depends on your playstyle

3 hits from a sub! lol you've got it easy! for me its 2 hits and a fart (sorry your bit about 3 hits for some reason reminded me of the 4 yorkshiremen sketch from monty python, its quite amusing if thats your cup of tea

Yeah, archers are having a ball of a time with there high attack damage but I kinda feel in the long run they will fall under the tru weight of the original classes... and wait till wizzards TS come... they will out level us all!!!
saying that a mad power leveler Archer will be strongest in game. best 1v1 PVPer in game ? if highest level ?

I'm a lvl 25 archer and I'm really thinking I've made a mistake as being able to solo bosses is gonna be pritty much impossible, the lack of aoe is a nightmare. I've been stuck against a wall by 4 black maggot and have to pop 3 hp pots while I had to hit each one at a time.
o an Archers are very fast lvlers when u have mp, once it's gone it takes forever and they burn through mp worst than mages.

agreed with this, archer damage comes at a massive cost, you can burn threw 200/300k of mp in 2 hours or so
Sins are weak at lower level yeah, but trust me from 22+ they're epic in terms of the damage they deal and once you get level 3 haste they're just incredible. They also have the same dc as a warrior and double slash + haste means they kill 6 mobs to a warrior's 1. But they do have less HP and defence so they can't tank quite as well, but I think that's part of the balance.
Warrs will be better with TDB but sins/archers will always deal more DPS than a warr and will always level more quickly, so if that's what you're after you may want to consider those classes.

Disagree, at the moment archers have the advantage with their 50+ damage per hit. They can level fast, kill bosses fast etc.
Taoist are coming in as good with their level 26 pets when leveled to 7
Wizard i'm unsure not many about but I assume weak at the moment but as soon as a few have thunderstorm it will change.
Warrior really weak damage from what i've seen and no that great at tanking, archer can tank just as much.
Assassin not great from 0 - 20, haste is their game changer which allows them to start killing efficiently, again DPS is not great.
Archer overall I think is too overpowered, a level 20 archer can drop me in 2-3hits @ level 27 (tao)
Warrior could do with some sort of hp or possibly ac/amc boost.

i hav elevelld my sin to 20 in half the time it took me to get my warr to similar level. and it just feels like its so much more fun.
i may play my warrior when my sin is high level and boring but as of now it looks like im not going to play it anymore.
might try archer sometime aswell though.
Warrior just needs something new before it gets to level 30 its soooo boring.

why is every1 commenting now when we are no were near late game and that is were u should be moaning about imbalances, early game was always a problem. it seems biggest gripe i have read about in this thread is gold and were i do agree it is hard to come by its kinda how its always been, this however being said i did manage to make like 100k chestnut hunting for like 20mins whilst unlocking ww and castle gy. stick it out to the late game and see if the balancing changes are needed
