Mages are so overpowered

I can two/three shot venos of my level, robes or no, and the same goes for every other class. In fact, if I get the first hit in, I win against everything my level or lower, and even some up to 10 levels higher! Add to that that I have a knockback ability that saves me from even being hit in PvE, and I'm the most broken character there is.

I think we should nerf the mages. They just hit too hard! They're stronger than even Venomancers, for God's sake! Make them do less damage, or take longer to cast! It's not fair!

    You are kidding, aren't you? If they change anything in this way, there is no point in playing a wiz anymore in PvE at least. I don't know about PvP but I get killed that often because of chanbeling time that it sometimes is no fun anymore allready. And in fact, wiz are allready damn weak in the beginning. To nerf them would mean to make them pretty useless for every kind of team. Not to mention solo. We can't solo anything as long as it isn't much below our own lvl.

    Yeah, it was great. Since I'm re-rolling on Harshlands, I decided to just attack everyone that was white or red named.

    I killed about 50 people yesterday. Most of them bitched about it, and acted all carebear. It was... an interesting experiment.

    I hit you, and I was like "Did I hit him... OH ****."


    And then you ate me.

    Wizards are definitely way too overpowered.

    Cooldown: 15.0 seconds
    Weapon: Unarmed, Magic Instruments

    Charge for up to 3.2 seconds to attack enemies in a 12 meter radius at the cost of up to 60% of your HP. Inflicts 5000 Fire damage, each HP spent dealing 4.0 damage.

    Demon version has a 50% chance to stun enemies for 3 seconds.

    If you have 4k hp or so at level 92....
    You can potentially do 9600 + 5000 damage... its over... 9..9... okay I won't use it.
    50% to stun too :D Emberstorm is overpowered!

    Nevermind the 60% damage... non-factor.. pft..

    Mages suck until 90+ actually, but yes they are better than foxes with phoenix when they hit endgame.

    wizards overpowered? hahaha nice joke!

    1 archer skill and you'll be dead. also high vit barbs with charm don't die easily not even with 1 crit. and keep an eye on your back because once a bm gets close you'll have an unpleasant surprise...

    Wasn't there several threads of this yet bitching and moaning about Venomancers being too powerful? WHAT DID I JUST SAY!? I knew this would happen. Nurf Venos, then Wizards are next. Nurf them, then Blademasters. The Barbs for tanking. Next thing you know 99% quit because now delvling is introduced.

    >.> This thread fails as hard as the 100+ other threads crying about classes being too overpowering.

    Actually venos havn't really been nerfed. Well not much. We are just sick of seeing the same threads over over again. So me made some about other classes.

    I think the OP was mostly sarcastic about the whole situation.

    I believe he created this due to all the Veno hate forums..

    p.s. High Cost Cash Shop items are meant to be powerful.. if it wasnt.. why would anyone buy them if they were only as powerful as a Golem that is free to catch?

    I say quit worrying about the other classes and work to perfect your own.

    I never said they were nurfed. I was just saying that if they were hugely nurfed to get the noobs to stfu, they'll go for the next strongest class until there's such **** chars going around you can't lvl without getting ganged by a mob 5-20 levels under you XD

    no theres a few probs with the game...

    after veno boss glitch and flesh ream

    mages absolutely suck... no survivability (low p def with low hp), low dps (compared to archers), and hugely long casting time and mana burn... and are thus never really invited to FBsb:cry or TTsb:surrender

    barbs are overpowered with beserk which is basically a mele only crit and they hit abit high for a meat shield...

    I agree with you 100%. It's just too many idiots overinflate the issue to the point that if one class is nurfed, it's going to go to another class. I just came from Flyff a few years back and when they nurfed Billposters several times they went right after the Blades and their high damage. Then it went so far as to getting to nearly every class and 2/3s of the offical server went dead for the exception of the players who went too far to quit.

    I know bringing up another mmo is ****, but its true. Nurfing only leads to more nurfing until there's nothing left but for people to quit. @_@ I love this game and having classes fight because one is better at something than another is just pointless. Classes were made different to do different things. Archer's will get hit for their crit rate soon I know it. That or get Wizard's endgame high rate damage when we all catch up.

    Almost sad how half the arguements are and even my own posts I reread pissed me off at myself for posting in the first place >.>
