You can't chain deflux fast enough to stay on top of any dps, plus lifetaps don't heal you when hitting a rune. Wizard using manaskin or epic and nukes will blow a necro away before he even heals himself off a tap.

You're the expert - I wouldn't know.

You said casters are doing too much damage, and have implied that their crowd control is too powerful.

Which casters are you referring to? The non-existant necromancers? The non-existant mages? The 2 wizards (compared to 30 monks/rogues) in each guild? Or is it the 2 enchanters who play this server?

Casters are a complete, utter non-factor in mass PVP on this server. CC never lands, not sure what you're referring to. I never get snared, rooted, stunned or mezzed here except for BARDS (only 125 mr too), which I'd have to agree are OP as fuck (and yet you don't mention them...).

So... what CC is overpowered? You're really getting snared on your raid buffed monk? BS.

What caster is doing too much damage? You're always taking screenshots, mind sharing a few of all these uber-nukes ruining your fun?

You said you wanted an essay...

Wish my necro was still geared. A necro will annihilate a wiz, even more so now w the partial spell resist patch 3 months ago

At 160 fire resist, I should have 20 casters blasting away at me without dispelling me and absolutely nothing fire based landing.

Naw

There are a TON of wizards on this server man, how can you even say that?

I can get to 208 fire on my chanter...sunstrikes tend to partial to 300-400

Solo gank artists, duelists, I have great fun on my wizard cruising around picking fights... but Colgate is arguing that they're too powerful in Guild or Group PVP, which is simply untrue. Casters are bottom of the food chain here, despite wizards being the most viable of the lot.

That is the way it should happen, but it doesn't happen that way at all. The resist patch barely did anything, it is still far too hard to resist spells on this server.

Checkraise, how many hps do you have when PVPing w/ Nihilum? 4500?

7 second casting time easily interrupted.

11.25 casts needed to kill a warrior, assuming no healing or regen.

That's about 80 seconds of standing still and casting.

Case closed.

The reason Colgate is saying that is we've been destroying their melee trains with caster/cleric focused groups the last few weeks when we finally figured out how to assist and dispel properly.

Casters have an ENORMOUS advantage in 50v50 type shit because they don't need to find their target to hit them. Try wading through 100 bodies on a halfling rogue trying to find someone specific even with someone lighting their ass up with a wiz staff or crown of rile.

Not sure what game you're playin man, but it aint EQ and it definitely aint EQ on R99.
