Probably a little late, but I didn't find anything using search.
So I was away from L2 for 7 months and I come back to see mobs UD on ranged attacks, and GOB set to normal HP and Physical attack weakness. what the hell is with the over-whelming 1-sidedness of NC to melee characters now? UD was just annoying at first, but now it ****** me off.
As a nuker you /still/ level several times easier and faster then a melee (unless you aoe perhaps - but there's aoe magic too, so the comparison would fail). You've been gone for a few months, but let me tell you this: nukers are STILL ridiculously overpowered, especially when they have full elemental on their AMs, and no, I'm not saying that because I'm some QQing melee, I play both a nuker and a hybrid :p
I do agree however that mob-ud is annoying~ IF they want to nerf ranged characters (which they should), they shouldn't make it something that's just terribly frustrating. On top of that: what UD do these mobs use? I've had mobs use it three times in a row on me! WTB!!
I put up with my nukes getting resisted or outright failing, but this is crap. I mean, even 2x HP or better mobs UD. really, really annoying. Oh, well screw it. I should not complain about GOB (my sub is melee, so I like it). Just tired of having to wait for a mob to stop UD (sometimes they can do it 2x in a row) so I can finish killing it, or always party with a melee class.
Yes, and you can make the dwarf pick up stuf for you, so you get a funny looking fat dude running around you, who gives dmg, could spoil and can play pick up items monkey roll. That beast a wolf by a mile stone :rolleyes:
so you fell bad because you cant kill a mob in 2 seconds and move to next one? LOL... I play melee most of the times (tho my main is an archer) and sometimes, when i want to pull a mob, it pops UD... so have to wait for it to stop, run to me and then kill it (at a lower speed still than a nuker)...

Dude Havent you heard? Every mob subclasses a tank class so now they have chance UD.. only NC altered them to only work on ranged attacks/debuffs/Magic
They can UD twice, sometimes three times in a row :eek:
I mean... the other day I was hunting Yetis at HS and I nuked, it UDed. So I waited to nuke again. Nuked again, it UDed. So I waited again... and it UD'ed again.
It eventually died, but gee, did it put up a fight :mad::mad:

++ for vitality though.
just an attempt to balance melee and mage in pve. just about everyone agree mage has a huge advantage in pve correct? so if it was up to you to decide how to balance this mage vs melee gap how would you do it? would you rather have mob ud to slow mage down or would you rather lower mage matk through nerf skill?
Mob UD is good from in my oppinion in order to oppose botting.
Common item drops really Balance UD.
The only think that should be fixed is the 2+ UDs per monster.
Personally I use a som and do economy on spiritshots. When I see a monster using UD,I stop hitting.But the 2 times UD makes me waste one pore spiritshot that isnt cheap at all...

at higher level melee (in party) > nuker (solo)
heck, actually even for academy toons I'd prefer to lvl up ANY kind of melee over lvling up a nuker toon, even a tank
Seriously, currently a melee toon will easily outlevel a nuker unless the nuker has a whole support class train out of party on auto follow. The reason is simply downtime due to mp.
with herbs and decent mana management, there should be almost 0 reason for nukers to be without mana.
When you consider that about 75% of the community has 2 accounts they use to 2box, and can probably box a recharger for unlimited mana.. Things are very unbalanced pve in favor of nukers
High lvl, yes thats different, but up till then nukers dominate hands down

do you realise that "higher levels" constitute 90% of the pve in this game?
1-76 level: 931.3 million xp
76-79: 1.168 billion xp
after that it starts at 2 billion per level, raising up to 4.3 billion per level at 84->85.
of course if you only look at noob level (when vitality still somewhat matters, I mean up to 75) then nukers are good at exping ..

Dwarves aren't meant to fight, they are meant to sit in giran and make SS/BSPS so I can level ^^
