It's to easy to interrupt a caster and keep them locked down. There are many fights we get into that my bainshee is totally locked down for the entire fight and all I can do is run out of range until it clears then get back into the fight if its still going on.
But when your Bainshee isnt locked down, she does massive damage to the enemy. Which is why they single you out and try to engage you to begin with.
That's how it is supposed to work.

Oh yeah. She rapes people. I am consistently in the top 20 for RPs and DBs at least 4-5 out of 7 nights for a few hours work. I would say out of 10 fights shes locked down 2-3 of them.

WHat is stupid? having a totally distinct gameplay experience rather unlike other MMO's where all classes are Melee with arm waving animations and explosions in substitute for swinging a sword? Casters and melee play exactly the same in most other mmo's. Ridiculous!

You people are trippin. DAoC is way better than these other MMO's out now. They are all WoW clones to cater to the pve whores that suck at real PVP.

If you have classes that fight at range and those that fight at melee the game is really about what is done to stay at range or get within range. DAOC changes gameplay from being about attacks to being about running around. It is stupid.

Choices
If the skill of interrupts is to great for you, there is always the option of rolling a hybrid class that casts magic without interrupts.
No other mmo offers such a plethora of classes(48 and counting) with such diverse combination of gameplay and skill mechanics.
DAOC offers a class for everyone

So the problem really just boils down to there being too many buttons to push in other games?
