Mages cast slow here, OK, fine. Why should they cast SLOW and go OOM at
once though? How about you increase the mana pool. That would be a decent
compromise.


if you want it old-school...
Hibernia was the only realm with END regen :> try and run celerity sos tank
groups without END and going OOE hehe.


Biggest problem with old RA system is the group purge druids got.

Well, around 2003 there was the old RA system, that's the difference. Mids have never been as strong as they are today on Uth in the history of DAoC with the combination of classic Class-Abilities/Items and NF RAs. Mids had the weakest of all unique RAs pre-NF, which made the whole RvR more balanced. And even in those 2002~2003 times Midgard was never really a weak realm in terms of group vs group.

The melee/caster imbalance lasts as long as whole groups can't be stopped by CC thanks to SoS, Charge and Purge3, because Casters relied on CC to compete in RvR since day one. I'm not saying CC isn't useful to tank groups, but when you're not able to CC your enemy at all as a caster group, you're simply going to die every fight (and since NF RAs got re-use of 90 to 600 seconds, this CC-immunity is up almost every fight). Mastery of the Art is just a bonus compared to the real issues of Uth's current RAs.

All crowd control ras are bugged on uth and have been reported, yet nothing changes ~~ Those would help casters don't you think...
I mean, a RA like TWF, ST or theu rr5 can't even allow a caster to outrun a det5 tank currently, not to mention they should remove CC immunity.

Cleric RR5 should remove stun immunity on people it procs on too. ^^

I know

Strangely all bugs I saw being reported about tanklove RAs got fixed within a few days (SOS and root, charge affected by cleric RR5, AOG on both hands, savage RR5 ...). And I can't remember of any fix on casters RAs in the last months, despite the number of bugreports.

Theurg rr5 icon, theurg rr5 nerf so it doesn't pop on stealthers at all, cleric rr5 partial fix not to trigger on charged tanks but stun immu clearing not fixed etc... well you get the point.

i've encountered ns's and sb's with my infi for countless times and found that if fight started without PA, both ns and sb has 80% chance to win infi. last 2 days i'm encountering one ns in Thid (49 (me) vs 48 (him)) and all time i loose the fight. The also strange thing, that in thet fight he always have evade/crit/proc/abla triggered but i have none of them. I hit him first, he rists my poison, he starts fighting back, then he evades (i'm stunned after that), then his dot proc works on me, then abla pops. Result: i'm dead, he's at 80% of hp. and the fact is that i'm 4l0 and he's 3l2 or 3l3.
today during the fight with me he restored his hp from 80% to 100% and i didn't see any potion effect.

i quit this game. alb sucks alot but i don't want to play for other realms.

I rolled a Healer because it seemed to be the most challenging support class. But I regret that it turned out to be Mid, because it feels better to know that you won with the odds against you than to win feeling that some "iwin" abilities did the work for you.

And I should add that, no matter how imbalanced it gets, it's ultimately the teamwork and skills that count. And a good class make-up. Of course, it's hard to practice when you keep running into the gank groups that have their teamwork pinned down on top of having the odds with them, but that's the beauty of DAoC: you have a challenge to overcome. Would you really want to be on their side, assuming that they really do massacre your groups while yawning and stretching (which is the impression I'm being given).

I saw same viper3 sb killing a rr5 pd ranger and in another fight dying vs a rr4 ranger (ranger survived with 40% hits)

I guess you should think to how speccing before sayng what is imbalanced.
I tihnk albion got the strongest stealthers classes anyway.
