its not only just ignis..its syrtis too
we have some awful (as in crap) conjurors, not naming of course, but long story short, dont expect heals, and dont think theyre gonna rez you (you'll either be run over by said conjuror as he summons zarkit..and the time u may lay there if you choose, you could have gotten back to where you died)
dont get me wrong, not slamming all, and i DONT expect to get my ass saved if i do a boneheaded move, and healing and rezzing is a tireless job..i thank those i can when i can, but..if its your class, then play it like it should.
as a knight i often waste my mana i could protect myself with with auras because syrtis is stupid and falls for the terror rush alot. same with hp. im often left sitting and out of mana with minimal buffs for me, and if syrtis is pushed back..they will RUN and leave my ass to die quite nicely..a synergy would be nice..i never have asked for mana..but its common sense. most of these times i dont have a single enchantment on, while the other army does..
ive seen some awesome mages like frank n, tine, klel, etc etc, who always seem to buff and heal people..but..theyre the first to die it seems, cuz when syrtis runs, guess who is the slowest, and dont think for a second most will turn around to help slow someone killing you. i used to, with a kick, ambush, hinder/caltrops..guess what it got me killed. and for what? the conjurors or people who didnt give a damn about me anyways? thats why i just save myself now, unless i really do feel the need to be a hero (which aint likely nowdays) used to see the barbs run back and onsl the stragglers, never see it now.
no one gets theyre a team, thats my biggest complaint, along with conjurors in syrtis. like i said some are awesome and they make a huge difference, others need to seriously read or 'apprentice" under someone who knows how to play their class, for my hunter i was taught mostly by valorius (yeah i know people hated him and said he sucked but he taught me some nifty ideas i never thought of on my own) and for my knight...its trial and error setup, various chats with others..and studying my logs from other knights..as well as watching what some of our own do and when. so like the saying..
ive failed a thousand times..and thats why i succeed
as for your hunter advice i dont agree..
not about your setup, cuz i use basically the same and have for quite awhile, its only about the "my setup is better" part, oh i know that petless can pwn a pet hunter quite hard and retain his FULL dmg potential as long as he has mana while a pet hunter is crippled on loss of pet, and rarely has high dmg potential (compared to petless) its just choice is always good and thats whats great about hunter, being able to be a bit flexible..heck knows i cant kill crap using a pet setup, but i love petless, and others are vice versa. long as they get their primary role done sufficiently.
anyways..i just wish i could for once know what it feels like to be in a organized group, syrtis RA aint it.
