Do you think the classes are unbalanced

The GM and Devs aren't looking at the forum and the mods have no powers about it. (I mean mods cannot balance the classes)

I think the "base" build of the game would suggest all classes are balanced in a sense that one class is stronger over one, weaker with another.


However. they game is so washed out with gear varieties, shards, buffs, blessings, and god knows what else since ive played last, no one here will feel the actual balances intended in the game.

people that were here during beta, and up till raging tides, got to experience some what of what the balance could have, or should have been.

To be honest, I believe the classes themselves are balanced.
The gear isn't, but then again, people with better gear either paid for it or farmed for it. They can't just go around giving the same gear/cards to everyone, that's called a private server.

All classes have their weak and strong points and if you know them, with whatever class you are playing and equal gears, you can defeat the other person.

But this of course is just my opinion. b:cute

I have yet to see an MMO where there is at least one OP and one UP (under powered) each.

Pet classes are almost universally on the UP end of things, while damage dealers and rogue types make up the OP high end, with the rest of the classes in between.

If an MMO has ever existed with 'balanced' classes, I would like to know about it.

I am rather unclear about what it is you want to accomplish with this poll other than trolling.

It is true that EVERY class has their strengths AND weaknesses.

However certain classes have such debilitating weaknesses it is ridiculously hard to see where their strengths even comes in, especially when their so called 'strength' is so easily erased these days.

b:laugh classes unbalanced who cares? b:laugh

If you think your class is weak just put a Montague on your house or sell your car
and cash enough and you will one shot 90% of the people in the server and only a full squad would be able to kill you "MAYBE".

I believe from the developers in china that there is an idea of balance between the classes.
The imbalance lies in gear, level, cards etc. etc. differences

Classes were most balanced after the Sirens of War morai skill update, but before R9rr was put to use. But as we all know, the Sirens of War update is what made R9rr widespread. So in other words, classes were most balanced during a nonexistent era of this game, which is kind of sad.

Balanced in what setting ?

1v1
TW (mass team)
NW (mass chaos)
PvE (yes balance seems to be an issue even there seeing how people have been QQing about aps)

Its hard to consider everything. Also for developers. I have the idea they're doing a reasonable job. I just think that each time they try to balance something, the make changes that are too big, causing another thing that needs balancing. And the R9 weapon procs are kind of OP, but thats probably part of making R9 attractive and hoping people will CS.

If im looking at TW, it seems to me that archers are a OP with their spirit blackhole. Unbuffed it takes less than half the damage to kill than buffed. So being purged is worse than being HFed. HF only lasts 6-9 seconds, purge lasts well usually till i die.
1v1 i dont feel disadvantaged against archers at all though.

For sins maybe its the other way around. They are a pretty good 1v1 class, but i can imagine it must be scary running around in TW as an LA melee, needing to get close up to hit someone. (Cant say for sure cuz i never played one) Being melee in mass pvp often feels scary already in HA.

Only thing balanced in pwi is the credit card debt with the cry babies.
