Well it always seemed like Mages did not have a chance of looting rights, when its a big crowd small area. Tamers with pets do a lof of damage, while and EV hardly does much these days. Many times has the events been in areas where EVs could not be casted. Warriors always been the best to fight with, so basicly its just about making a char that actually has a chance of killing something at events.
What we expect from what impression the EM's give from what they are saying, in many cases are very different from what is going to happen. For me Europa Events is about items, I don't think, they can compete with the fun I had at other shards. But there are boring things on other shards aswell. But Europa doesnt even give many items out on a year, compared to others, but well its EM's choice, I stopped playing because the game was no longer fun, RTB has not changed my point of view on this. But its not just the events, for me its the whole game. But my playing style the events are a big part of it.
