Return of Reckoning

Magus will defeat everyone except DPS healer and SnB tanks with stacked defences. Good player Magus with high APM and micromanagement skills and ideal build will defeat everyone including dps healer and tank except the elite players of those classes, which are just a handful of players on this ...

Asking for balancing over solo roaming or pug content its insane. Balance needs to be based on grouplay.


Said every class that outperformed in solo or small scale since 2008. :D

Also note what devs said with regards to the WE in last patch:

“The priority of balancing in Return of Reckoning ...

It would be fine if magus 1 shot u if it took dmg like a rifle engi

Hell engi requires 2 tactic slots for weaponskill

Magus can use the absorb / 160toughness tactics and still 1 shotting ppl.

It just has too much penetration in its baseline kit singletarget with the 360 pet shred.

All the aoe ...

Lol, sorry, but seems like you are drunk.

I never had a white lion above level 3

Also, nice logic:

Numbers on a construct dummy mean nothing. Dozens of maguses swarming the server either. Opinions from pretty much everyone who played against current maguses don't count as well.

What ...

Dozens of new maguses swarming all the server are a clear indication on the 100% broken class which literally needs nothing for being tanky and simultaneously absolutely lethal at 110 range



Aye, sc and lakes are full of magus as much as engi. both are s tier classes, if someone doesn't ...

My unoptimized RR82 Magus (base crit of 13%, 793 int) pounding on a training dummy. Just running the simple tactics of CA+CU+DW+SF and a rotation of SVF->MBF->WS->BT->SVF->BoC->IFoC and maybe SVF one more time if needed will demolish the dummy.

My average DPS is between 860 and 920. My 3s burst ...

? You just conceded the whole argument without realizing it.

You're proposing giving the magus a heal debuff and avoidance changes in exchange for less burst . That's not a neutral quality of life wishlist, is it? That's you admitting the burst is disproportionate to what a balanced group kit ...

I mentioned sustain once, to describe the hybrid's strength, not as benchmark a magus needs to match. That's not the same as making sustain part of my argument, and it doesn't touch my actual point: similar gameplay pattern doesn't establish similar output or capability.

Saying "yes they're not ...

Then it is also funny that you're also disputing havartii's "Magus has been top small scale for quite a while" claim, since that's the exact point i used against his "why ST and not AoE" argument. You're both arguing the recent ST changes didn't actually address what group content needs, just ...

That's not my argument, and reducing it to "every class is different" makes it easier for you to dismiss than what i actually said, and easier to call me shortsighted for it.

My point was specific: a DPS healer hybrid (which again, an example you brought up earlier) with strong solo sustain is a ...
