On another note a thing I have noticed and it may be Mythics way of balancing is that Mids are better set up to kill Hibs and Hibs better set to kill Albs and Albs can stand up to Mids better.


Are zerks the most damaging tank in the game? Albs might say a LW user in Hib is.


Anyways I played Hib for a year. Do I think its right that zerks do SO much damage to scale wearers? No. But its the melee resists fault not the zerkers. They don't hit armsman nearly as hard.

I've never heard of an Armsman being 3 shot by a LW user.

Scale only take 10% more damage from slash then Plate. That is not a large number. This is not a scale only problem.

"In reality a zerk would be so overcome with their rage they wouldn't be able to style OR defend themselves. This change will never happen but it's what would happen if you got 2.5x to 3x your strength from ANGER ALONE! *See being posessed by the God of Rage* A berserker would be more hindered from their ability and it wouldn't be something they could trigger. Just FYI "


I just wanted to say that based on the abouve quote, Navneimu-Furystick has no frickin clue what the berzerker powers were based on norse myth. According to Norse Myth a Berserker was INVULNERABLE to any kind of damage while in a fit of rage. He also killed whatever he hit while in a rage. In fact, according the Norse Myth, the only way to kill a zerker was to wait until AFTER the fit left him. At that point the berserker was in a feeble state and unable to defend himself.


As to the regular nerf zedrker posts. Leave it to say, I have yet to see anything from Mythic indicatring a zerker nerf is coming anytime soon. fatc is I am a 49 zerker and I have NEVER hitr anyone for more than 800pts of damage, and that is rare. So clearly not ALL zerkers are doing outrageous damage all the time.


But carry on with your nerf zerker posts, as I am sure it makes you feel better.

My biggest hit ever in RvR was 374, from the second in the rear positional chain (I'm 50 blunt, wielding a 99% arcanite spiked mace (4.2 delay)). No crit. If I had been luckier and critted, the max crit would have been 185 or so. The most I could have *possibly* hit for would have been 375 + 185 = 560. Of course I didn't; I hit for 374.


So ya, I've never hit for over 800, either.


Or 700.


Or 600.


Or 500.


Or 400.


Edit: Yes, I have > 300 str, 65 qui and > 1700 weaponskill.

It's ok Lef, playing your FotY class will soon pay off for you and you'll have the ub3r rps. Just one more lvl for you until you can just slam one style key over and over again. Back to leveling!!

Cry More!


Only thing I see is Albion/Hibbies Whine Whine Whine Whine until something gets nerfed, which doesn't need nerfing at all.


All you dudes who want a Zerker nerf are all wanting the I WIN ALL THE TIME BUTTON for your shirt.


Give it up!


Hell last 3 patch have been nothen but Albion adds to an already over powered realm. If all you Albs traded places with Mids on a level base, we ALBs(Mids) would kick you arse all over the place. You just got no skills(tactics) cept a zerg. Fess up and quit your whining.


Ya there a few albs who know how to pharm, or gank group, but thats it.


Ceyah!

Albs received loving because they were underpowered. Now they are much more balanced, especially with Hibernia. But both Albs and Hibs complain about Zerkers because we're not blind to their overpowered qualities like you are.

oohhh...Yoreox pulled out the 'tactics' insult.


We all know mids have the superior tactics from the being the underdog for so long. The fact that their tactics revolve strictly around one style and one buff has nothing to do with the argument right?


Back to the playpen with you kid.

uhhh you are a total moron. please leave this server if you play here and go to merlin it seems like you would fit in there quite well. It is clear you have never played any realm, but midgard or you would not think alb was the overpowered realm...

on a class per class basis there is not ONE single alb class better than its other realm counterparts. Not ONE. And last time i checked midgard was the only realm with multiple classes with an 'I win' button. So far as your 'tactics' arguement...hitting doublefrost does not equate to tactics. That is all.
