Dear BMs...

Dear BMs,

As my ever growing family of brothers and sisters reaches epic proportions, I would like to take this opportunity to point out a few things. First, about 80% of us know nothing about our class. You might think it's a high number, but it's nothing compared to the barbs and venos.

Secondly, I would like to address those that feel one build is superior to all. You fail. Reroll as a HA cleric. I just spent half an hour repeatedly spanking someone of that mentality. With him potting and using genie skills. Good job at ruining our reputation. Stop pulling mobs with bows and genies. Start tanking like the sub-tanks you are.

Finally, I want to clarify that we ARE sub-tanks. That means some measure of HP is necessary. Go get some. The next time I find myself tanking for a lvl 76 BM, or spanking a level 68 BM, I will remember each and every one of you.

For those that feel I merely trolling, I wish it were true. =( Sadly, it's the sad, sucky BMs that made me HATE this class, before I started playing it. Now, I just hate the fail that comes with any class.

Sincerely,

Synn

PS - You should ask the barbs and sins how they felt after being spanked by the weakest of the BM builds.

    Except, HA cleric works at end-game. b:surrender
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    I feel like a WIN BM since I have almost 100 vit points on lvl 61. I almost tanked TT1-1 (except for this drum guy, his magic attack pwns me in one shot b:surrender ) and all I needed was a good cleric. Also I've tanked BH51, which is damn hard too. Anyway, I still have the feeling that all these vit points are failed points, cuz I have only 200 str b:surrender

    I've tanked All of my bosses except Jewels, DoD, and Gargantakong King. Thus far. That includes Zimo and Wyvern. On a side note, I do have Vit, but not as much as you seem to.

    I never thought much of your wizard or your wifes veno(although this is something completely to do with something that happened ingame a while ago)

    its a game, do what you want to have fun and DONT tell people what to do...people will do what they want to have fun if it means adding vit or not.
    also yeah HA cleric is viable endgame, best not to use that anymore

    Is this a rant because everyone is telling you to go 3-2 dex build?

    Personally I used to be a huge fan of the full-vit build BM. At any level below 90 it's simply a far superior build for PvE and survivability in tanking and affordability. But if I didn't quit and was rich enough I would have restat by 100. With enough money, fist build IS the superior build, no questions asked.

    HA clerics are good fun. b:chuckle

    Not really a rant on people telling me to go a certain way. More like rant on how the class is falling into worse and worse disgrace. Too many people think they have the best build, and refuse to take any form of criticism. I will be the first to admit I don't hit as hard as you. Nor do I have the perfect gear. At least I'm willing to learn from my mistakes.

    @_Surreal_ o.O Do I even know you? I took a rather long break.

    you also have to look at how people that play this game go in trends more then most other games I have seen in the past. A year ago or more you would be screamed up and down apon if you even mentioned the words fist/claw bm or a build that was not axe based. trends come and go, and people figure out new ways to play.

    I would not say the class is falling into a disgrace as much as the player base not knowing how to play the class or do anything but auto attack. that has little to do with the class of a bm, but more packs, oricals, bh's and all the other ways you have now to rocket your level to end game with out learning to play the class.

    Yeah, the lack of skill knowledge is very funny, to me. I've been accused of using genie skills, when I use Will of Bodhisattva to avoid stuns. ._. And it was a BM saying it.

    there is actually 3 ways to make a non **** bm

    vit axe for TW

    vit fist/axe for pk

    3/2 for pve DD

    and bm's are not sub tanks...we are the endgame tanks of pwi barbs just do the job till you can afford to refine a bit (tanking 2-3 solo cleric at 90 :p)

    Fail build is when I see bms/archers using fists 10-20 levels below them with no interval gear. This happens way way way too often.

    It's the -int Sins that brought the craze for fists/claws into favor...In my opinion. I really don't know for certain as this is my first char and my main.

    no it was not sins that first brought this about. a few bms had figured it out shortly after the release of ani packs a year ago. ( may have been figured out before that, but not practical because none could obtain all the gear )

    within a month surfaced the first 4 aps bms followed by one or two crazy enough barbs to restat to do the dmg that bms could. so that would place it near the end of Sept begining of Oct of 2009. Sins came later.

    BTW, I didn't say that they FIRST brought it about, I was simply suggesting that they resparked the latest craze for it. But you corrected my anyway so, really pointless explaining myself.b:laugh

    There is a use for this. Noob fists + Cyclone for chi generation = 30 sec dragon.

    Granted this only works if your not tanking, you'd never hold aggro.

    lol Dude, you were online one time, the entire time I was in HW and you challenged me to a duel at Slither. Seriously, you developed an opinion of us based on a pair that refused to face facts and didn't realize that we were pulling more weight than we should have been. =_= When everyone is telling the noobs that my wife WILL run TT for them, it stops being fun. b:bye

    @Skynyrd Yeah, but nerfed damage is nerfed damage. Better to just play your role, sometimes.

    Seriously, it's not hard to stay civil, when I am usually the civil one, in a situation. =\ So, please, clarify exactly how you ended up with a poor opinion of my wife and I, when we bent over backwards to run everything we could for people AND still keep them from killing themselves. My wife truly has no qualms with being the blunt and honest one, if the other side is at fault. And we DO accept blame, when we're at fault. And I am still trying to figure out half of the HW **** because we, the Synns, never once used the world chat to disrespect the faction. It would have been a waste of funds that we never had. And we never had funds because we were always running stuff for people that were lower level. See the pattern?

    BM's, you don't make money doing BH unless they pay for your repairs, tele, and wines. Even then, all you might get is coins.

    We had the math for 5 APS worked out a while before packs came out. Prof gave us the info he got from -MY about that being the animation cap. We had worked out how refinement rate differences worked in conjunction with rings and sharding to determine at roughly what multiple of damage fists did over melee or ranged weaponry to showcase its strength. Few bothered listening until packs came out and they didn't have to put effort into getting the items. If it wasn't for packs, many current day BMs would be running around with axes or spears always and licking the screen still.
    Fist are the worst at PvP AND PvE, if you disagree, as I said, take it to PM's or make your own guide. Go here if you want to debate about it. - Lyndura

    You weren't even around. You were on your BM at least 3 times while we were in Failwave. Your opinion is based off hearsay. Due to this your opinion is invalid. b:bye

    I was on everyday...ever heard of timezones? maybe not the whole time when you were on but you hear things and also experience things. Your comment of "failwave", HW was ONLY fail because you and your family of synns were allowed in, before that it was one of the funnest factions i had been in. Then when you guys left you pretty much destroyed everything the leadership had built. You happy?

    add in: i had two characters in HW so maybe i wasnt on my bm. On the forums you guys always seemed kind, what i experienced ingame was a whole lot different. Then again i also heard from some gladius members that you were awesome. All depends on how you conducted yourself in your own faction and someone elses.
