Yeah. Last night, we had a black orc, shaman and me beating on a warrior priest that was like a level or two below us.We couldn't manage to kill him.
Guessing this will balance out as classes get mortal strike-like abilities.
That's pretty weird. 3 people on me, especially if one's a DPS class, and I start looking for help. (Rune Priest)
On the other hand, with an Ironbreaker guarding me, I successfully managed to tank, and survive, a team that was completely made up of Chaos Chosen.
Got over 30k healing that game!

We were all impressed when Mr. Parcelan wrote:
The current thought is that a lot of Order classes were buffed to compensate for the fact that there's less of them.We have no mirror for the Ironbreaker, for example, and it's the most capable tank in the game.
I can agree with this. I'm not sure what can be done about it though, since Ironbreaker doesn't work anything like either of the two Destruction tanks.

The Bright Wizard tends to combust far less than a sorceress backlashes.
Wait, don't Combustion and Dark Magic work the exact same way? I'd imagine if Bright Wizards aren't getting as much feedback from their spells, then that's a bug.
Otherwise it's just luck.

The Swordmaster doesn't randomly lose abilities.
I guess a bug is the cause of this? Black Orc and Swordmaster abilities work the same pretty much.

The Witch Hunter's buffs last longer.
Not sure on this one, so correct me if I'm wrong, I didn't think Witch Elf and Witch Hunter special buff moves worked the same way.
Also, the Witch Elf has better tactics doesn't she?
quote:
For all that, however, I find they still can't play worth a damn. Order doesn't ever come out to fight unless the odds are overwhelmingly in their favor on our server. They have the patience of saints, just waiting for enough people to leave until they outnumber us 3:1, then they strike.And God forbid you catch them flagged and running around. They'll run to the nearest NPCs with complete disregard for level or class balance. I've chased them all over Barak Varr as they tried to escape me.
Once the classes are balanced and we get our Blackguard, they're in for some shit.
That's going to vary from server to server. And if you tried to kill me as a Black Orc, I'd be interested in seeing how long you'd be willing to chase me before getting bored, because you sure as hell won't kill me any time soon. :V Willias fucked around with this message on 09-20-2008 at 05:08 PM.
I have only seen 1 squig Herder on my server. He seemed to do okay. BW are not to common. Only seen 1 engineer. Tons of DE boobs flopping all over the place.
Nice to see all the issues every server is having. Destruction out numbers order in every event on my server, though most of the Order guilds are leet uber groups that migrate from game to game, vent and all.
I might take a trip to a core server just to see the difference. If you all make it out to Hochland open.. look me up (Tuefen - Lucid Visions)

Most likely you losers didn't notice the rune priest that was spamming the warrior priest with heals. 
That was done by duoing over half their team in the tunnel.
It was awesome.
Later on in the game, I got targeted a lot by Witch Elves who would wait until I got a little low on health, and then burn me down with morale abilities. :( Willias fucked around with this message on 09-20-2008 at 08:36 PM.

Nina Model 2000 was programmed to say:

Actually, if the warrior priest used his detaunt on the right guy, then he may have been able to heal all of the damage he was taking by himself.
For example, I can detaunt Black Orcs and almost completely ignore them. They become no threat.
I can take up to three people with no problem really. Unless theres a lot of damage involved, like say, a couple of marauders and a black orc or 3 black orcs all with 2 handers. That gets tricky. Willias fucked around with this message on 09-20-2008 at 08:50 PM.
But it just goes to show that a duo or more people that know what they're doing will almost always turn the tide.

Maradon! had this to say about Punky Brewster:
Is there an accurate list of issues with any MMO? Since when do developers fess up to balance issues before fixing them?
Fans have been known to produce communal lists of complaints. Some of those can be decent or at least offer some clue as to what's up with the game in general.

Game's been out less than a week.

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and I dun got banned was all like:

Beta's been going for months. Given that the game has only been out a week with only beta's changes, I'm pretty sure some of the beta opinions will accurately reflect some of the problems. One way or another, does such a list exist or does anyone have a good handle on what sort of problems there might be right now? I'm just wondering in general what sort of problems the game has while I'm waiting for everyone from my guild to get into it. Damnati fucked around with this message on 09-22-2008 at 02:53 AM.

-Order classes are stronger than their Destro counterparts.
-Destro outnumbers Order on every server.
-People are stupid.
-Animations are slow.

From a fluff standpoint, that doesn't work. The gods hate each other as well. That's why Chaos ends up fighting with the other factions in the game.
Chaos will join together under a particularly strong leader, it's known as Chaos Undivided and was seen in the warband before the events in the video game "Mark of Chaos". It also appears in the 40k background when all four Chaos gods banded together behind Horus the betrayer.
It does happen. Just very.. very rarely. I think the only reason they picked Tzeentch is because in all the previous video games he's been more or less ignored.

Probably also because Tzeentch is the least offensive of them all.

Horse shit.
Marauder vs White Lion?
Witch Elf vs Witch Hunter?
Swordmaster vs Black Orc?
Equivalents aren't 100% balanced, but it works both ways. You Destruction hicks are just coming up with excuses for getting trounced by an outnumbered enemy.
Black Orc - "Oh boy, I'm an armor-clad badass! Now all I need to do is sacrifice my incredible defensive ability in exchange for mediocre DPS by using a great weapon! Also, taunts and any skills that don't do direct damage are for losers!"
Shaman - "Pew pew green laser beams pew pew. Heals? What are those?"
Squig Herder - These don't exist
Chosen - See Black Orc
Marauder - "Wowee, I have a cool arm and some great offense! Time to charge blindly through a group of bright wizards to wail on the tank! Why would I bother going around to get their healers? That would involve some sort of guile or cunning."
Zealots - Don't exist
Magus - Summon daemon and run away. Do not cast a single spell. Surfs up.
Sorceress - Hang back at the very edge of the skirmish lest you be attacked. NEVER under any circumstances advance forward or cast a spell unless there is only one or two enemy left, and only then if it's a healer. OR Delete Dhar Wind from your hotbar and blow yourself up with backlash as you struggle to blast the tank using shield wall.
Witch Elf - See Marauder, minus cool arm
Disciple of Khaine - "Oh wow I'm a dark elf with two swords I'm just like Drizzt this is soooo cool. I don't know why my allies keep getting killed though, I'm trying hard to use my slash ability over and over against the enemies, but it's not helping enough. I also don't understand why my groupmates keep asking for heals, I don't have those."
