I like the new look of the face for 71 Elite vanity face, big improvement. But why are the stats EXACTLY the same as the Geisha Face? It cost more for the same effect, whereas the other 2 classes get much better improvements.

Also mages being able to "Absorb" combos is unfair. I am going to site the double blast effect birds once had as unfair and rightfully so removed. But it is really overpowered that an already super strong mage can completely NEGATE an entire combo, doing ZERO damage.
Fighting as a bird vs a Mage is hard enough already, especially vs a Pally. And yes, it can be done, but when you actually live past their 2 hit kill (which is any two spells that crit, which everthing does) and you are able to then land your roots (because mages especially pallys have so much dodge you need to root em first) THEN you use your cruel blast to kill, BUTTTTTT it DOES NOTHING. No damage, just absorbed like you didn't just survive the odds to be denied once again.
ANYONE else think this is unfair? Why do mages get to NEGATE a combo. If only birds could negate drain :)

Hello Sir! Are you currently complaining about Mage or Birds?
Pros of mages
-Quite Overpowered, each skill can instantly deal 1-5/10 hp!
-Looks awesome!
-Good support

Cons-
-Weak Defence
-Easily rushed,if, not pally.

Pro of birds
-Good rushers
-Good damage
-Looks good

Cons(I'm not very good with birds.)
-Some birds rely on dodge


As for the combo.
Scream and blast does individual damage. Combined, you get another hit! i find it pretty fair against mages and bears!
Birds barely use scream in low level pvp due to insufficient time.

I'm pretty sure you are a pvp pro and would know all of this.

Instead of wasting your scream to remove shield buff.
Why not just use blast? And kite.
Due to how weak mages are, low dodge and low armor,except pallies, they require mana shield. Yes, I somehow agree that it is somewhat unfair, but is it how this game works!

Mages at 71 have almost as much armor as str gear and near 20 dodge.

I get owned by pally mages alot.
On a side note, recently in a ctf match, I had this teammate who did not have a elite vanity set but could tank 3 Elite Vanity set opponents, it was incredible, 10-20seconds later, he was found dead.
Yes mages are one of most op class for now. Lets see what new updates will bring then!

Ironically the cons for the mage also apply to the bird except more so

Which is ironically why mages are overpowered even though their armor was meant to be low.
