In the past few months, more than a few mages, were able to kill timed orrick in under of 3 seconds solo, and hydra also extremely fast (don't remember the exact numbers, but I do remember that many mages do it faster solo, than a group full of rogues.)

Now I am not a mage player, havent played that class in a while, but I do know that if rogue would be this strong, could solo these maps so fast, you would see huge amount of threads "Nerf Rogues" every day, but apparently when mage is able to do that its ok?

I will tell you that:
I got 3102 DEX set Zaarus, with around 60BD, Arcane were, all the damage fish elixirs, and after procing all kraken gears and switching to the zaarus, you do tons of damage and I mean alot, but somehow, a significantly lower stats mage can do it even faster (single target damage).

I am not saying rogue is weak cus it is not, but there is something very wrong in here, with the amount of damage mages can squeeze on a single target so fast.

- Sorry mage mains if you got you upset
