In order to turn part of this forum into a request for buffs, instead of nerfs, and actually getting an update that has some buffs instead of nerfs. A request to list any profession/ weapon/ skill that you think is ‘low tier’ or plain ‘worthless’.

Because lets face it, nerfing the kitten out of anything that is even somewhat remotely viable is no fun at all, it just leads to ‘more diversity’ because everything is evenly ‘low tier or evenly worthless’. While instead we should all have viable, good options to play with!

this request is based upon the 5 tier system of: ‘godmode’ / ‘strong’ / ‘medium’ / ‘low’ / ‘worthless’ tier divide. I am merely looking for the ‘low’ and ‘worthless’ as those are the tiers that most deserve a buff, so they move into the ‘medium’ to ‘strong’ categories, and thus lead to more viable playstyles

“Top level”… uh huh. Whatever that’s supposed to mean nowadays.

Most of those thieves are overrated or, simply put, bad. I’ve seen them play. They’re hardly effective (perhaps annoying, though).

@lunacrous , ok while I think that is a bit overreacted let me ask you this:

Is the warrior level ok though? I mean, if all professions would be at the Warrior Tier could that be the goal to aim for? Or is the warrior overpowered?

Assuming we’re not restricting to one gameplay-mode (which wouldn’t be meaningful feedback), I can only really see… no wait, actually, class-wise no one is hurting.

Mechanics, that’s a different issue alltogether.

The strength of heart to face oneself has been made manifest. The persona Carighan has appeared.
