Null, a serious, non-flaming question.

[mimixownzall]

Since the bug forum is for bugs, where do we post about balance issues since you are working on this? Here, or can you talk Rogean on making a special area for this.

translation where can i cry and try to get things changed to benefit me

[mimixownzall]

Considering Null already talked to me in private one night about how some things he wont change unless we can provide proof of a pvp imbalance, then... yeah that is what people are going to do? Though it can be done without crying. Simply laying down facts that are reasonable and not fantastical is not crying.

[Null]

Here is probably fine for now, if it starts getting flooded then we might want to add a new forum for it.

k ill say it again

1) I like the way classic was , however i feel it favored casters too much

2) Null your system is actually favoring casters more.

3) IF we divert from classic, id like to see melees get the advantage and NOT casters

[Sprinkle]

dude no they arent

nukes land too much for too much dmg

cc lands now too

its not that fun to hahah blind spam and own melees

[Nirgon]

There doesn't need to be balance, there needs to be a classic implementation. Some classes have pvp strengths but pve weaknesses and vice versa. It pans out for every class to be cool and worth it. Yeah, even rangers.

If we start doing balancing, this quickly turns into a custom server and not like the one we remember at all. Yes casters gank easier 1v1, but buffed and bard speeded melee dominate in group pvp. You can't really balance one part of pvp without causing huge imbalance elsewhere. EQ pvp is juts not balanced, I just hope they try to get it as close to original as possible.
