Re: AM v Shaman / Blorc v SM Questions

How do you think that SM have no silence? You might have only copied the OP but why are classes being discussed without even knowing their skills? :) I actually play an SM so this is embarrassing, but still new and haven't gotten that ability yet. I remember thinking they had one, just took the OP'...

Re: AM v Shaman / Blorc v SM Questions

SM also get baseline Dazzling Strike, which is a 50% build-time increase that's spammable and easy to apply to casters and healers. The closest BO get to that is a tactic that adds 20% build-up to their AOE debuff stance 2 ability Big Swing (the equivalent ability for SM is Wrath of Hoeth which debu...

Re: Debate about why Order is how it is.

A lesson we all should have learned from the Core Guard Ability Change experience of 2019. Your point is simple yet elegant and I fail to understand why so many seem unable to grasp it. What was the Core Guard Ability Change experience of 2019? I was not around for this, would like to know the cont...

Re: Debate about why Order is how it is.

There's a flaw in this line of thinking that people need to be forced into playing specific classes, and that is the alternative to them having fun as a ranged class could be rolling a tank or healer. Flaw or not, that's the game. There are plenty of games where all classes are jack-of-all-trades a...

Re: Debate about why Order is how it is.

Population is still depending on the specific content of the game. Order have a higher RVR population and dominate that aspect of the game. Destro have a higher city siege population and dominate that aspect of the game. You can't just balance the game around city population and end up having order...

Re: Debate about why Order is how it is.

Except Order isn't really the underdog faction. Order consistently wins ORVR and most forts due to having more RDPS and have a higher RVR turnout than destro. Giving them buffs would make RVR even more of a shitshow than it already is. Order simply loses more in cities because they have too many RD...

Re: Debate about why Order is how it is.

What would you change in this to make our faction more appealing to people and veterans? Also, do you not think that because the developers have tweaked quite a few things the faction is much close to 50-50 than 33-66 like it was on live apparently? It wasn't 33-66 on every server, but on some it w...

Re: Debate about why Order is how it is.

I've been watching this thread, it's been insightful. I wanted to offer some perspective from someone who recently started playing RoR but did play WAR at release launch back in 2008. In 2008, Order was significantly under-pop compared to Destruction. On some servers it was really bad, like 2:1 or w...
