Powers of the classes

Many who know, me I have never writen to this board, but Xzato's
foolishness has prompted me to do so.



Have you ever used telepathy? I think not, most monks/daru rarely use
it. I can not say I am a great fighter, but ask those that spar me alot,
I can. I use telepathy more often then I use Tekura. I agree BBT now
sucks, but learn to use what there is. Telepathy is all a monk/daru has
left to ofset the weakness of BBT. Where once all a monk needed was BBT
to win, now he must use his mind to win, do you have a mind? A lock can
take long to get, but you only need one for a few seconds to get the use
out of it. I would say, Telepathy is more useful in combat then Tekura,
for without Telepathy to scew up an opponent, Tekura will be useless.


How about that Illumination, only beaten as the most overpowered skill
by Numerology. I have yet to see a fairy run out of spark in a fight,
and the healing power it gives eqauls if not beats Kaido. You speak of
bloodboil as being able to cure afflictions fast....doesn't Purity do
the same? Oh wait, it does.

And I will agree with the Mighty Maggot Lord(Mephi) when he says
vampires suck, because they do. You said Blood affinity in Sanguis gives
them next to no damage....kinda useless when a fairy can KILL thier ent
with ONE ability......


Now, I am not going to defend RL in anyway, but I will say that they
take what they have, and use it the best way possible. Have you tried to
do that? Take half the energy it took to bitch about dieing, and use
that to learn how to not die. I took on 5 RL, and with alittle thinking
I out smarted them and manged to kill 4 out of the 5 before they got me.
Granted it was a cheap trick, and a stupid move on thier part played
into it perfectly, but the point is I managed to use my head and win.
Did they bitch about it being over powered....no infact Spirokai's exact
words were, "Now that wasn't good."

Think before you complain, because yes there are some things that are
overpowered, and then there's just plain being smart with what you have.


Oh, and your little doublewhisper sword idea....whats the point? I, a
monk class, can cure up to 3 afflictions(granted one is a mind
affliction) instantly. Then thier off EQ for about 3 rounds, where your
just pounding on them...oh yeah, that's a great idea.
no
yes
