When are you going to nerf skalds? They are utterly ridiculous, so many ways (at least 5) to reset a fight, very high melee defence, 4 insta interrupts, quite reasonable DPS. The skald rr5 is totally and utterly over the top, why on earth should they get 30s CC immunity?

This class has their cake and eats it.

Join to choir, this isn't just for NF for for all the BGs, skalds are stupid OP'd. Why also would you give a class a style STUN when they can insta MEZ???? But just like Minst, they will not do anything.

I think I've seen it all now!


Skalds are fine, the epitome of a fun and balanced class.

Yes, they are strong in 1v1 vs. most classes if played very well, but several others hand them their butts if played equally well. And in groups they're a little more fun then Bards and Minstrels perhaps, but not nearly as effective either of those.

If I had the ability to go back and redesign classes, I would only give speed5 to pure support classes. I think it's hard to balance a class like this, because speed5 is such an advantage you have to make them worse in combat, but then in a group situation it doesn't matter who brings the speed anyways. Clearly I'm not suggesting making any changes to the game though.

I wouldnt say "balanced" but I wouldnst say OP either. Skalds are def a pita when fighting. Having access to two aura of mag plus som plus their chants make them very hard to deal with. Also with being able to mez...then heal up makes them a very strong class. Add the rr5 and this class is a rapefest on speed.

They can get a lot more than that but I'm gonna remain on that subject.
