    Yep. I puri my herc, plus I ninja some invincibility pots on him so nothing can ever kill him. My herc also picks up all my **** on the ground, gives my veno massages, and makes breakfast in the morning. He also one shots Harpy Wraith by doing a flying elbow drop from the sky on it. Definitely OP.

    That's what veno's are suppose to be.
    They are suppose to be able to solo FB's TT's and etc at a certain lvl.
    And nobody can say that they are over powered since they have been nurfed a bunch of times because of many others QQing abut them. ijs

    Venos are over powered in the mid to thje mid-high lvl and gearing in both pve and pvp. While this may be the case for the majority of our levels, it doesnt stay this way for pvp issues....

    Yes, the nix is glitched (bleed in specific) and too many veno's take advantage of it. If it was fixed our magic damage (which is the lowest dmg for ALL classes) + our pets dmg would put us on an equal maybe even a slightly higher playing field....

    The problem here lies in the higher levels like 100+ and with end game gear being refined to +10 or more on everything. If this happens (depending on shards) the veno could potentially be the most underpowered class of ALL including the nix's bleed glitch.

    When your gear is refined that high you will have over 10K hp, unless you didnt plan your rings, belt, and necklace correct you will have very high def in both phys and mag, and so will your oppenent.......

    The nix's bleed will NOT tick their charm and i would personally be surprised if it even got 25% of their hp off. All that defense is going to block a majority of the nixes attack. Our attack being to +10 or more in this scenario, will still not hit them all that hard (keeping in mind they have +10 or more gear on as well as you and our mag att is the lowest of all classes).

    If the pker has any common sense they will kill the nix, eliminating it with one or two shots and with it, part of our attack spectrum. Once the nix is eliminated, unless you know how to play your class (and even then it is an uphill battle) you will lose or it will be a draw (the most likely case for a barb, unless they get lucky with an armageddon.)ALL the other classes are made to be able to attack on their own, Clerics, archers, wizzies, BM's, barbs (we said barbs are iffy), even the new tideborns will all kill you.

    Some people may disagree, but i can assure you that when it comes to pk, in the end-game, venos are under powered. So love it up when you are lower-level and everyone has **** gear

    How come your all so mean? He asked a simple question, no need to be sarcastic... Just answer his question... Only Sadpuma was nice enough to answer appropriately.
    Well back on subject...I don't know much about Veno's, but I do not think they are over-powered. Just slighly better in PvE that's all^^

    No, Venos are not overpowered. The Veno class is for players who play solo the majority of their time. We can solo a lot of things that other classes cannot. It doesn't mean we're overpowered, it just means that we're doing what the class is intended to do. You want to talk about overpowered? Go discuss the Tideborns. They are overpowered.

    a lazy troll is a fail troll - use search and add to existing threads about veno's 'supposed' OPness

    Is there like a forum prize for posting the 500th repeat post or something?

    Veno's herc and nix should be OP, well more OP, because they did spend $200 USD after all. Best to make bank for their buck.

    Take away the Venomancer's pet, and they become the weakest class in the game. Now, when everyone is level 100 and has full +10-12 TT99 or nirvana, even venos with pets will be underpowered.

    This is because pets, unlike players, cannot be upgraded. A veno with a +12 weapon will never be able to one shot players like a wizard can, we can't sleep opponents like clerics and assassins, and we can't stunlock like BMs. The only thing that makes venos unique, is out ability to use pets. but, when player gear gets to a certain point, as mentioned above, pets become nothing more than a nuisance.

    A Phoenix may be able to kill a 7x or 8x arcane user in a matter of seconds, but when that arcane user is 100 with full +10 gear, the Phoenix is the one who is going to die in seconds.

    True
    A veno with a +12 weapon will never be able to one shot players like a wizard can, and we can't stunlock like BMs.

    Since when? Many venos can 1 shot people...certain venos who are good enough can one shot people easily, hell..theres a couple venos that can one shot me.

    False, we have flowers floating around us, no other class does.

    Those have actually been there for a long time. I remember someone calling me a noob because he thought I spent money to have little flowers float around me (although 1 gold for 25 minutes of flowers is a ripoff).b:chuckle
