#41912, "To be fair..."


          

I generally try to put myself in the other guy's shoes before posting, and I've done that thus far with you, good sir.

But I gotta say you DO put forth an inordinate amount of complaint about ragers in general (deathblow, parity, etc.) for someone who has never played one.

Just so we're clear, my last rager was Balthudar, which was over a year ago I'm pretty sure (ran around getting raped by Tiria, if you remember her). So I don't really have a dog in this fight (Mike Vick) other than the overall Game Balance topic.

But the amount of input you have on ragers and OP'ness is a bit like if Morin (as an example) were to constantly, for years on end, non-stop, complain about evil conjurers and how OP they are. Purely because evil conjurers (I use them as an example because their servitors can sometimes do deathblow-esque damage really suddenly) have killed them using "no skill", just conjured up a demon and c mag Morin. Not because he'd ever actually PLAYED an evil conjie. He just...knew they were OP.

You see how silly that would sound?

And I get it. You can't stomach playing a RBW. That's fine. Nobody's forcing you to. But I have to tell you the same thing I tell people who think evil is too OP but have only played Fort - you can't really complain about something being OP until you've played it. And not just a passing glance 40 hour char. I mean really *played* it.
