Defensive classes

Did you know that in late 2007/early 2008, SotW had a 15 second duration, near-immunity to both spells and normals, lower mana cost and cooldown and allowed offensive skills, and it was in its state for months before marksmen started using it?

I know. I was one of those who started using it more and more back then.
Maybe it wasn't necessary for fort wars, don't know, but that's indeed an interesting phenomenon.

But right now tricks are used by marksmen. Maybe not that often in fort wars, as it's more useful for them to have a high range there. So yeah, you could say tricks aren't that good with more players around, ethereal arrow is better. (Especially now that you're doing 0 damage quite often)

You can't say a class is supportive because of two spells. (Two spells you can't really use in combat, that are just useful for some maneuvers etc)

NGD did do a good job with the update, and they have clearly stated that the update is not finished yet. There will be a rebalance soon (and that's not soon(tm) soon, that's soon, as in, it'll actually happen).

I'm one of those who really enjoy this update, I'm far away from bitching around. But I love this update on my hunter because there are no more troll tards
Apart from stalker there weren't very many new things for hunters in this update, and by the way, I'm really looking forward to the next update, I expect some fixes for the most broken class of regnum there.

well in my current setup i combine normal dmg, spells, cc's, range and a little defence in one setup so far it realy works cause it's so versatile, ofc i won't stand a chance against a 50 knight or charging barbs but what i think is my job (killing mages, weakening barbs and killing other archers) i think i'm pretty good at that now.

i had my first 1 vs 2 victory ever! (it was a lock + hunter both lvl 50 full health) so if a marks is played right i think my class can be the most versatile class in the game, combining cc's, range, dmg, speed, defence in one.

yeah i love my marks! the update sure did some good.
