There is 0% reason to bash another player in this discussion. Doing so just breeds resentment and risks the bashee not wanting to come back. I will censor that shit all. Day. Long.

The rage damage is aggregated. I wouldn't rage or use any other skill that didn't turn out better than flee murder. If that lesson hasn't sunken in yet, let it. Consider for example how much damroll you can get on an invoker and why on earth would you bother to use flame arrow (dismember, saves involved) when you could flee-murder and get two massacres. Losing flee is a BIG DEAL.

I observe you guys all the time and I watch you having no idea how to trade murders properly nowadays. Those few people that get it are always the top 5.

I've seen trolling and that's not it



re-validated that comment, please ease up a little this is the battlefield not the graveyard

Otif: I realize we're not quite friends and we play this game to fight each other. A bit of healthy fighting is a good thing to have on the forum between people that engage in this much conflict, but keep it respectful dude. There's no need for that kind of bullshit and it really came out of left field. It's not like the guy hacked your account. why are you so pissed off

How about a berserker unable to switch weapons when they are in rage?

I don't think they can switch weapons. If they're disarmed, they can re-wield any weapon they want.

Also, Dav, if the way to #win is to flee/murder, then that would mean staying in the fight would get you killed. Using a lag skill keeps you in the fight, which would get you killed. So why take that opportunity away from people?

A raged berserkers option to change weapons is to throw the primary and change.

Other ideas for balancing Warriors better that I think still stick to their rp/class 'feel':

1) Decrease the lag time on their skills like overhead crush and sideswipe. They're masters of combat right, so they'd be more proficient than anyone at recovering from those special attacks.
2) Make berserk movement based instead of mana based. This fits nicely with athleticism.

This isn't a warrior vs. berserker debate. It's a berserker being unable to be lagged debate which gets sprinkled in with some other stuff.

After chatting with Ranix, I realize there really aren't that many situations where you would want to lag a raged berserker. The one that does come to mind, however, is to prevent him from berserking.

that is only when mania and raged is combined. if there is only mania or only rage, then no.

and it will remove mania or rage from the target, and prevent them from berserking as well.

That's a poor example because mobs cannot be lagged by others or themselves. If that were a player, he would have done 1/3 to 1/6 the number of those overheads.

It tastes like a player posting a log of getting TKO'd by dragon breath and wanting to nerf it.
