hey...what is balance?


In a balanced game every class is the same fun to play. But actually for most people hunters are most fun to play with.

Of course this is not because hunters are overpowered, there are other things that cause this....it is the game design (no reward for fort wars ect.) as well as technically problems (lag!!).

I agree that my pet and summon suggestions were a bit odd. But you see how people are reacting. Besides about 10 times red karma for this they mocked me, they laughed about me, they spam the forum. It is because people want to defend their own class, that's all. They just don't listen, people reacted in a similar way when I exposed the enemy surveillance bug. "Oh no....we will loose some powers, how can you say that. You are wrong."

Why is playing a hunter fun? Well, you can chose when to fight, you don't die that often due to high evasion and many escape possibilites, means you don't have to run that often from save to the action.

You can gain rp (and gaining rp is one of other purposes why people are playing) more easy when not much people are online because you can succesfully go hunting allone.

You have to use tactics, more than other classes. That means you don't sit just there and press on damage spell button after another. Beeing forced to use more tactics means more fun to play.

On the other hand...you don't have to worry when you cast ambush for example...it does not matter if it hits or not...your pet will do the job and attack while you cast. And when it is cast on you....don't care, the pet will attack while you are knocked. At this point my suggestions may be important.
I wanted to bring up some ideas how to change this point. Of course my ideas were not that well thought and I made them quite impulsive, but as I already said in another thread, you can talk about it, or not. Maybe you will come to a point where you see it is crap or you get new ideas when you talk about it. It is just a theory and not a "how to nerf hunters". But you see, people are feeling personally offended by it...so much that they make 2 identical posts and that they are starting mocking threads.

When I am playing there are barely fort fights. All I can do is either grinding or go hunting. Just to chat I can use other possibilitis, I don't have to be ingame for it. But most classes are developed for bigger fights...that is the main reason why playing a hunter is more fun...and having more fun with one class than with another one means imbalance.
