Depends on where you're hunting, and as a previous poster said, who you're playing with. I'd take a skilled ranger over a ninja afk warrior any day.

On p99, you need nothing more than 5 mages and a healer.

To have tanks is to make the mistake of thinking they can absorb damage better than mage pets.

For all the tank hate I'm hearing, I've never had a group without a tank or had mage pets tank (unless duoing).

It is people griping and trying to make underhanded comments about melee damage mitigation. Every thread turns into a select group of people making silly remarks. Nilbog addressed the thread and said that he realizes there is a problem, yet they continue to try and inject their gripe in every thread. Just ignore the trolls and move on.

You heard it from Wenai, the majority of the server offering their views on how things can be improved for a more classic-like EQ experience = just a bunch of silly griping and trolling! If only these people would just shut up and stop offering their ideas on how to improve this server... The nerve.

I have no problem with people wanting to voice their opinion. Do it in an appropriate thread. Don't turn every thread into a giant bitchfest. The issues are known, solutions are being discussed. There are limited people who have the ability to fix an issue like this. All I want is for people to keep their complaining in the appropriate thread, and quit hijacking threads and turning it into a personal soapbox.

There is prox aggro when it comes to mage pets. Other people can not melee or they will become the main target of the mob. But, if you have multiple pets attacking, you are good.

Also, mage pets can't generate as much aggro as sk/war/pal can.. which would be a good reason to have them in a group. I have to be careful when I heal my pet sometimes because if I pull aggro, I have to take at least 2 hits before I can back off and my pet takes aggro, and this could be problematic if I were hunting giants.

Lol, that should be forum rule number 1.

Like they said guys, they know about it, are looking into it, and have plans to fix it. I got a rogue that's suffering because of these problems, too. Let's just wait it out and hope it comes soon and that's the end of it for now.
