If WoW ends up this way I will most certainly be finding another game.

Point.

I'm sure EQ2 will continue to have its idiots, its just funny to see the doodz waiting for WOW rescue.

Seriously, all the retards ARE on alliance.

I didnt believe it until I made a paladin to try out the class.

And then, BAM fucking morons and B.net retards everywhere...I mean the pure stupidity these people were spewing into general chat was amazing.

No shit. Speaking of which, anyone know if you can turn off general chat?

I started as a paladin, but then when I realized I couldnt hold aggro, I quit

Awful late in development for classes to be broken, eh?

Tacks · Post by **Tacks** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 10:17 am

That was 6 months ago Donnel

Donnel · Post by **Donnel** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 10:20 am

Sorry, I don't keep up with patch messages for WoW.

Are paladin's useful now?

Is any class not useful?

Tacks · Post by **Tacks** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 10:22 am

There's still some balancing to be done but each class has its perks. Hunter doesn't bring much to group situations but all the other classes do.

Donnel · Post by **Donnel** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 10:27 am

That's good to hear.

Would hate to have a game (any game) where a % of the population is unwelcome.

Being a warrior in EQ1 during PoP was bad enough, knowing lots (odd term to use because there weren't many) of paladins and SK's during kunark and velious who felt worthless was bad as well.

Tacks · Post by **Tacks** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 10:30 am

There certainly are the preferred classes (Priest, Warrior, Mage) but there really aren't any classes where people will say "Group of 4 looking for 1 more except ____"

Donnel · Post by **Donnel** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 10:33 am

Is there a point to doubling up ever?

Do a Druid/Shaman/Priest in the same group compliment each other?

If you have a warrior and a paladin, who tanks? What's the other ones role at that point?

Tacks · Post by **Tacks** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 10:37 am

Yep each of them have totally different spells and abilities. It's just like grouping an SK and a Paladin in EQ. The SK can still deal damage and maybe summon a pet, lay a bunch of dots on and tank. The paladin could do his thing and throw out a bunch of heals here and there.

In WoW, Druid can do pretty much anything the situation calls for. Shamans can do a lot of DPS or they can do mediocre dps and concentrate on secondary healing. Priest if he wanted to and the group was good enough wouldn't even have to heal at all, priests that are shadow-specced can do a massive amount of damage.

I'd really like to see a screenshot of a priest with shadowform on. Does he turn into the metamorphosed DH from WC3? Or is my imagination running away with me? :p
