1)warriors should have a statistic of they own, like mages have MC taoists has SC and yeh warriors have DC but everyone can use that. maybe a RG skill (Regen) for regenerating Hp. and there should be a book for it about level 14/15.

2)the mage should have a higher HP by about 15 and gets to about what it is now by level 20, this is so they can xp alone at lower levels, but, i think a few of the spells should be taken away as there is a huge range compared to other classes (actually looking back on this is disagre with myself, all should happen is mages should accept that some spells are rare, thats the point and to stop complaining you cant find them, think about wizards in the past they didnt all have the same spells) .

taoists Hp should be taken down a little to balance things out but the healing should be a bit more effective.

there should be an equal balance of classes weapons found (does anyone even know what a hoocked sword looks like?)

ahhh f**k it ill carry this on tomorrow im too tired, if u think im being unfair so far say but remember im not finished, i will edit this message so dont expect a new one by me

I've said it before, I'll say it again. You CANNOT JUST INCREASE STATS TO ACHIEVE BALANCE. It doesn't work - things just get worse and worse with more and more increases for each class in turn.

One things that I think would make for more interesting growth is to increase the number of "levels" available for the different skills. Only having 3 levels and having to put so much effort into what is usually very little gain is a bit of hard punishment.

The idea of having more diverse skills and spells, keeping some common and some rare with just a few extremely rare makes more sense.

We complain about everyone looking the same, but the stats for any given pair of players (of a specific class) are essentially identical and that applies to their skills as well. The GMs have hinted somewhat at changes that will allow players to decide HOW their growth at each level increment is selected, rather than automatically as it is now (I actually quite like the auto-growth style, but I would also like to be able to override it on occasion to create a little specialisation).

Diversity is what I'm looking for - not clones of everyone else around me.

Frankly you'll find taoists complain to other taoists who understand how irritating it is to have to run around and find the ingredients for poisons, and then having to keep poisoning every monster you see just so the skill goes up by 1-3 points out of 2000 or however many etc.

My warrior compared to my sorc is stronger defense wise obviously - thats what you'd expect. My sorc has no targetting system for the fireball and elec shock etc, so I find her easier to use when fighting even a group of monsters whom I can just hide behind some obstacle when attacking. This balances out - the warrior misses occasionally and the sorc has to move a distance away to attack.

With the taoist they are obviously the middle class - which is exactly why there is less complaining from them. They are not to either extreme of having tons of hps or sps, but are in the middle, so basically if someone wants to be just average atm the class to chose would be the tao.

Now if the sorc was given the same amount of hps as the tao there would be reason to complain. Based on the classes there is a clear reason why sorcs have less hps and warriors have absolutely no mps. To adjust them to be 'simular' to others would defeat the point that these are different classes, and therefore *should* have varying hps and mps. One extreme for two, and one in the middle. If someone doesn't like that a particular part is lower than the other, be a tao.

Basically with the sorc its down to tactics - if you're crap at tactics, chose a different class. I didn't need to group once with the sorc to get my levels up - I found it the easiest to level without hardly ever getting hit.

With the warrior I agree it was a lot tougher. There's the targetting system all the way through the levels (even with raised acc), a lack of skills and no specific stat. However I found she was the strongest class and could outlast numberous fights without having to use potions (down to high AC). Unlike the other classes though, she doesn't have to buy both potions. Lucky me.

I found the taoists were pretty average, which is why nothing should be altered. They're SUPPOSED to be like that, the jack of all trades. Frankly they don't excel in anything, can't attack from afar efficiently, can't handle long battles without having to use hp potions (or healing themselves - its the eqivalent), but we live with it. We don't complain because we KNOW we are just average, we chose the class that we KNOW will have no extreme. As soon as there are other classes...then there'll be more cause for complaint on all sides, as you'll have more to compare them to.

geez, go whack something else stfu
