I too have been having a great time so far. The world looks great, and I really haven't experienced any real problems or bugs yet. I've been partying a lot, and I always love the PvP, whether I win or lose. The one and only issue I have is the frequent server crashes (beta 4), but I'm sure you are d...

Liquid, all I can say is... Amen :D By the title I thought that this was going to be a sarcasm type of post. It's good to hear that that are others out there who aren't having problems smacking mages around with their melee builds. And I'm playing one of those high STR (& CON) barbs myself! Been loo...

Daltian, I didn't mean to say that you were an inexperienced player, poor choice of words on my part. I apologize for that. However, I am no newb myself and I just have not been having the same experiences of 'imbalance' that many others seem to be having. If there is a monster that has 40% damage i...

Just another point here, my one and only weakness is my Will saves. If I party up with a caster, even a simple magic circle vs. alignment (read: immunity to mind-affecting spells, lvl 3 spell) and i'm pretty much invincible. You have to learn to use things like that to your advantage. Party, party, ...

Daltian, don't mean to be an [censored] here, but my advice would be don't play an inexperienced halfling rogue if you want to be able to take down mages in PvP. They are good in other areas though :) And with the proper adjustments to the build, they should be able to sneakily dispatch a mage with ...

What i'm trying to get across is that poeples' expectations of how their characters should be performing in this mod might be a little askew. I include myself in the group of us who are generally considered to be the "min/maxer, powergamer" type of player. We know when we have a good build on paper,...

Man, yet another post about the same thing. As far as I'm concerned, the only class that should even been having an issue with this is WM. A pure fighter should be able to specialize in at least two diferent types of weopons. When you run up against something with resistance/immunity, change your we...

After reading the "We'll try this again soon" at the end of the previous post about this, I decided to start with my own opinion. There seems to be a lot of talk going around about class X not being as powerful as class Y or not being able to beat monster Z. While I agree that minor tweaks might be ...

Hmm, bounties... I kinda like that idea. Might help out with the economy and would be great RP for assassins .

The shackle thing I'm not so sure about. My barbarian would never surrender to an enemy. He goes down swinging. Surrender is for the weak

Fighters are made primarily for wearing armor, using melee weapons, and having fairly high HP. They go toe to toe and hit things that are trying to hit them back, causing physical damage while avoiding physical damage in return. That is what fighters do. They are not designed to be a 'Mage-Killer' c...

I dont want to say that the original poster was wrong or that they should figure out better tactics because that is just plain rude. I hope I didn't come across this way. I was just trying to illustrate a point. If I'm a mage squaring off against a barb, I know that I have to stop him or kill him b...

As far as I'm concerned, they already are balanced.

2H weapon = more damage
1H weapon + shield = more AC
Dual-wield = more attacks

I use a 2-hander until I run into something that beats on me hard, then I switch to shield - no problem.

My barbarian has been knocking mages down and chopping them to pieces. The only way they stop me is with stun/paralyze. Otherwise they're toast. And I believe True Seeing has been modified to not detect stealthed characters, which is apparently how it's supposed to work in PnP. You'll need spot/list...

Any online multiplayer game that has PvP areas is going to have griefers. The most infamous of them may get banned, but they're always going to be around. My personal favorite way of dealing with them is getting revenge on the battlefield. You're a noob getting slaughtered by a 15th level character?...

Firstly, let me say that I am not opposed to arrows that do different damage types. However, creatures that are resistant to piercing damage are simply one of the archer's weaknesses. Rogues can't sneak attack undead, mages can't hurt creatures with spell resistance, etc. That's just the way it goes...
