#8885, "Okay, seriously."

Hey Immortal(s):

I appreciate the impetus to explore and interact with other characters. However, taking away my solo-ranking mobs by changing them to be able to see me is pretty crappy. Perhaps I should rephrase that- changing the mobs I JUST FOUND to rank on and have been the only person killing them by the next day I log on- sucks.

Honestly, many times when I'm on, there's about TWENTY people around. With my role, I can't always get a group, and could BARELY rank off some mobs because I could rest in between. But, hey, thanks for making the ranking treadmill that much harder and making it less desirable to play.

It can't be any surprise why at peak numbers or low ones, 80% of the mud is now warriors. A) They're specialized with great depth.
B) They're a feasible non-empowerment solo-ranking char. Don't take away other classes' SMALL chances to rank solo when you see them doing it. That seems to me to be either misguided or childish.

Rant ends, not personal, but that sucks.

1) I do most of the area file changes, and I don't remember anything of the sort recently. The only exception is that about a week ago, I made sure the rangers in the Fields of Balator properly used Acute Vision, which seems pretty reasonable to me.

2) Warriors aren't more or less prevalent than they've been for a long time.

3) Rants like this are infinitely more irritating and less useful than a simple question. Calling decisions "misguided and childish" then saying it's "not personal" to the people making them is talking out of both sides of your mouth.

I added the "not personal" because I think I cooled down enough from the mob death I ate as I was posting the message. Your point is taken about simple questions.

Visiting soldiers in Arial City couldn't see hidden.

Now they can.

Why?

It doesn't look like they can to me, chief.

Jackasses like me getting fumed and coming here and then... being completely wrong. Apologies, please delete this useless thread I started.

Still missing Naz,
