Title: New fighter stuff
Post by Gad on 03/15/03 at 09:06:31
ok..really..berserkers are fighters without armor, but with good ablities, and more hp (which does make up for armor in my opinion)....it is kind of annoying that fighters can only use 1 type of attack and that berserkers can enhance themselves use other abilitys and use all of fighters weapons.  Why dont fighters get some new ability or something...im not really one to say a whole lot since i have only been playing for about 5 months...but really fighters are becoming a TON less useful...basically only to go on leech runs if you have option to choose between a fighter or berserker...and maybe not even that cause berserkers get so much more hp....really- fighters need something to make them work as well as berserkers and others...why do you think rangers and thieves with perf stats sell for 3 or so times more than fighters with perf stats?

Nobody likes a good old fighter anymore....Rangers and thieves sell because they are easier to train and easy to pk with. Fighters you have to click click click click, thieves, rangers and berserkers just 1 simple click will do. I still like fighters though, they hit the hardest just attacking. All the other classes have to have all these fancy abilities, pfft. Fighters need something new to cope with the numerous other abilities other classes have. Maybe an option to choose an attack stance; defensive, aggressive or regular. I dunno, but i'm in agreement with Gad, our mains are fighters and they keep getting passed by with spiffy new stuff. They are, after all, the most used class ingame.

I also agree fighter do need a bit of a spice up, they are boring and IMO a bit underpower. The good old fighter should be able to hold his own in combat (hence the name fighter), by being able to weild many weapons and wear magnificent armors as well as showing some skills in a type of weapon, of their choice of course, but they can not. A ranger, which in this game designed for the use of a bow, meant for long range combat, can destroy a fighter in close combat ruining the whole point of a bow vs. a sword. They should get some type of skill *gasp* maybe that allows them to wield a weapon more proficiently, or skills that allow them to be more powerful. I mean in all honesty shouldn’t a fighter be able to, I don’t know, fight?

Rangers and Thieves are NOT easy to train... i mean a ranger misses a lot at a low lvl. A thief misses until his assassinate skill does at least over 50 damage. Fighters well... they need more stuff but frankly ranger and thieves are not easy to train.  :P

*to clu* shut up..thieves arent hard to train...ive been training 3 for a little while..they are easy...very easy..and yes rangers are a bit difficult but they have tons of skills and such that make them way more powerful than fighters and that is just dumb cause for players that are good and train like crazy it doesnt take very long to train any of the types of crits (not including druids and mages) to fairly high lvl.

Depending on how Thieves are trained, it can be a tough task to tackle. Power training makes it alot easier. Just level them up to 20 or so by that method. Then assassinate and train regularly. (Just my thoughts..)

yes thieves are easy to train up to l20 (i can do it in about 2 hours) but after that they become as hard as rangers. Fighters gain exp far quicker (my archie fighter gets 3-4 mill xp each time my ranger and thief get 1 mill xp)

The best thing about fighters is they are useful a LOT earlier. How often does a thief or ranger win a l15 or l20 mosh? Rangers are utterly useless until they get the enchanted bow, clerics are passengers until they get aid,thieves are good for training but can only 'click' people if they stam trick while enhance/champs is on, but fighters become respectable as soon as l10. Battle axe, BoS, and BoH are easily best weapons at them levels.
As for zerkers they have same weapons but in a fight get through pots a lot quicker. I was 1v1 with someone in a l15 mosh recently, we both had full pots to start with, he was down to 1 pot and i had 9, but i got careless and didnt drink on about 110hp, then he stam tricked me :(

Heh, so basically the main useful thing about fighters, is totally useless at high level? Nice.
