#45627, "You're using certain assumptions to frame your argument."


          

Mostly, that the players you are mercilessly mowing down with your rager are total n00bs.

I love that everyone said mages with under-powered at ranks 15-35 and ragers were so OP at those ranks, and then I played Jindicho and mercilessly raped nearly every villager (but Ohbehb and Gaplemo's rager...who I was 1-1 against) that I came across.

I will agree with the rager haters in this, ragers are WAAAAAAAAAY less work than a comparable mage/warrior that is not a rager at those levels. But as Malakhi said, the price you pay for the easiness of "call resist;deathblow;deathblow;deathblow" is that you have a very limited power threshhold that nearly every other character does not have.

PS Completely random thought about a point you made earlier. Fire Sword is not OP, but played by an elite PK'er it can be. I think that's a key distinction. I mean ####, Shapa and Jaguab made Gnome Warriors seem OP. It's not the game, it's the player my man.
