Is stupid.... Protection, Gheal Wands, Pots, Apples, Healing, Winds, Bolas, Insane Stupid Pets that do half life hits.

Why make it so you need 5 people to kill one person? Cmon get real, Show some freaking love to Archery for once so I can sit there and never die.

So which one you want to get nerfed? Myst?magery?taming again?Items? Of course there are people who beleive archery is overpowered should nerf that one to. I know people complain about stealth should get that nerfed again. I havent heard a necro,ninjutsu,or bushido nerf for a while. have they being nerfed out of existance for pvp yet? Maybe after nerfing myst out of existance necro will seem too powerful so we can go back around to that again. Just can't wait..... I think they should nerf some monsters 1 hit kils are not fun. Are you experienceing this in pvp? Is there any 1 hit kills going on there? Havent heard any since the great halbert and axe times though.

Yeah, nerfing things for PvP is an endless train. Once one thing is nerfed, something else will become "overpowered." After that overpowered thing is nerfed something else will be overpowered. And so on and so forth. There will always be one certain combination of skills that will just be a little better than the others.

People will always complain about overpowered skills and items. Both from the clueless "PvPers" and the experienced.

Taming...again?


Which time was it nerfed? When they allowed pets to be rezzed instead of making a tamer go get another one? Or when they added rideable dogs that heal themselves and kill in 2 bites? Or maybe when they added Greater dragons so a tamer can do peerless bosses solo?


Taming NEEDS to be nerfed.

I think a good way to nerf it is to require tamers to have another skill to control high end pets. Like herding, for example.

You want to control a Greater dragon? You'll need GM herding to do so.

I still prefer the necro/mage/tamer personally. I don't know another way you can have a GD and 2 skelle drags :)

Oh, tamers already have to use 3 skills to begin with. Adding a fourth required skill would just be stupid imo.

And... Yeah tamers should be able to solo peerless bosses or should that just be allowed for the sampires? Whatever tweaks they do (or IF they do) let it stay on the PvP world.

I recommended ages ago having a hard cap of 85-90 resisting spells under protection (depending on your inscription) and making purge magic a magery spell.

Hate to say i told you so...

I told you so!

IT was months before they fixed greater dragons in pvp the first time. Nothing like fire breath that does 60 DAMAGE.........

Well, Defensively I think mysto Is slightly overpowered. Stone Form + Protection + Cleansing winds.... Just nasty. Only way to disrupt the cleansing winds is to get off a mortal, and even then its another six seconds before you can do another mortal, so he just casts another cleansing winds... what do you know... back to full health......

I wouldn't say archery is overpowered, I've killed plenty of archers on my "Straight" mysto mage. The saddest thing in the whole game is archers who only use a comp bow. And actually Archers did get a nerf, or did everyone forget.... They changed the 300 Skills Required and concussion was nerfed making a regular crossbow practically useless.

Tamers shouldn't even be allowed in pvp. pvp, get it.... player vs player? When a dragon can Fart, Bleed, Breath, Cast, Bite, Jump, and all the while his master can either stealth or turn into an animal and run off screen while the game reverts back to pvm..... and then they can just summon their pet right to them after telling it to attack?!?!?!?!?! Kidding me, I carry that Dragon slayer bow/book, Redline the pet, and he just gets to summon it back to him a million miles away before I can kill it?

1. Tamers Should have to Stay on Screen for their pets to continue their commands.
2. If an Archer Has to have 300 SKill points to get their "Mana" bonus, then tamers have to have 300 skill points in taming, lore, herding, vet. (You'd be surprised how many tamers only run taming and lore)
3. Can't Fly or go Animal Form with a Greater Dragon, Enough said.
4. If you are in the heat of combat, you can't summon your pet. You flagged, you didn't stay near your pet, Deal with it.
5. Pets can't be summoned away While you are dead, have to go somewhere like to a stable to summon your pet. *which requires you aren't in the heat* You play a tamer, you brought it out, you died, now Its your pets turn.
6. Lets not forget my personal Favorite, Pets can flag on you, but the owner won't be flagged on you......... Love that one. As if GZ wasn't bad enough.

so force everyone to pay 50mil for a dread mare or a bane dragon. good call.

Get a hide or invis off. Log off, log on. how do you nerf that ? But this is a point that I actually agree with.
5. Pets can't be summoned away While you are dead, have to go somewhere like to a stable to summon your pet. *which requires you aren't in the heat* You play a tamer, you brought it out, you died, now Its your pets turn.
this works.
