The classes that a good player does stupidly well on usually attracts the hordes of bads, it's why Animists got nerfed so hard. They never were very good overall but had their strong points when played well but people flocked to them and then suddenly there were shrooms everywhere while they hid in keeps/towers. Very annoying but they rarely killed anything.
Same with Warlocks(still hate this class just because it goes against so much of what I consider the 'rules' of the game).

I mostly played solo casters(all Hib casters except Bains, RM and SM) and found them to be much much more of a challenge than anything else although lifetap casters make things sooo much easier. As a solo melee class you can at least still fight when being attacked, the only melee class I hated getting zerged on was a Warden just because you're so weak against CC but 1on1 vs. other melees they were retardly easy.

Don't know what assassins are like now but I always found them to be very easy if you picked you targets well. It was very difficult early in NF around keeps with all the anti stealth that was around then but that's mostly gone now.

Anyone who doesnt put many caster classes up as OP must not be playing the same game. Im talking specifically casters with access to MoC and lifetaps.


These cloth wearers are tankier than any melee class in pvp, as all they do pretty much insta cast LT for 500+ damage wioth 100% return, even when they are being 'interupted' by melees.


The classes that come to mind here 1st and foremost are


warlocks- they dont even need MoC they get it free in their spec line....

sorcerors

necromancers


Other casters are deadly in pvp because they control the fight via roots/stuns/mezes.


Savages are ez mode for a melee class IMO. Huge multiple hits + good defenses


As far as lone enforcer titles-- many of the people who have that title have had their characters when you could find legitemate solo fights.

In this version of DAOC--- it's very difficult to get solo fights unless you become a dueler in Lab.

you knopw why you see lot sof people playing stealthers?


because many of the pvp guilds in todays version of camelot dont accept newer; and if they do they dont get pvp invites. Hence the guidless person tends to gravitate to a class where you dont run around 24/7 alone with a bullseye marked on himself.

I would say that this is... something like 90% wrong from personal experience; considering that only maybe 10% of sneaks play solo (if that).
People play sneaks because
A) They like the idea of killing people w/o being seen
B) Were killed by a sneak, saw how they were dominated and rolled one
C) Noted as a solo + smallman, they are by FAR the easiest classes to be successful on with a basic skill set.

Nothing I've played in this game takes any real "skill".

Some classes have archaic controls, and the game itself is exploitable.. so things like window dragging and lag jumping add to the "skill factor" I guess.

But I've played a Savage, Shaman, Friar, Spirit Master, and Bonedancer. None of them are really "skillful" compared to some of the classes in WoW (pre-Cata Frost Mage, Disc Priest, Resto Druid, etc.)

DAoC is a fun game, but a child could play it just as well as any of us.

Now get the profanity out

Lol, just lol.

Are you pissed?


Resto Druid and Frost Mage, even Pre-Cata are some of the easiest classes to play. Mages have always been fotm, from back in vanilla due to their ease. And resto is just lol, the only difficult period it went through was with Plaguestrikes, and even that was only in a 1on1 situation.
