I think Tank should be buffed

**Mysticate** · 10-23-2015, 04:44 PM

Hello to anyone that may be reading, if you are a dev or part of the STS staff team and is reading this please take what I have into consideration and be open minded. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this.

I started playing Arcane Legends about 2-3 weeks ago. Usually when I play any game with a class system I choose a close combat class, such as a warrior. So that's what I chose, a warrior. After playing this game for a couple of weeks I have come to understand many things about it, I been playing MMOs and MMORPGs for many, many years, so I catch on pretty quick. I been grinding a lot, and i'm currently level 23. My balance at this moment in around 250k gold. I would say that's pretty good for a new player right? What I realized is that warrior is an extremely weak class. Almost 99% of the bosses deal tons of damage in a close up range, and as a warrior you must fight close up. The warrior class, or tank I should say, should be the strongest class, but it's definitely not. It's very hard to kill some of the bosses especially in this Halloween event as a warrior because when you get close to the boss the kill you in a matter of seconds. My point is, warrior needs to be buffed and improved or the other classes and the bosses need to be debuffed. The rogue and sorcerer are almost as strong and maybe even stronger than the warrior and they can deal damage from far way with there bow (rogue) and gun/wand (sorcerer). Being a warrior really sucks and I dread the fact that I picked it, in fact it's really bothering me and is making the game A LOT less enjoyable. Please, fix this. If you're a player reading this, please leave your opinion on this topic as well.

Well. You are only lvl 23 with cheap gear i guess. So its normal that bosses are hard. Tank is a somebody who don't deal damage but take it and protect allies. Shortly : Tank keep mobs busy , allies ( rogue , mage) kill em as fast as they can. If you wanna take much damage then just switch class till you're low lvl.
Look other threads there is so much about buff war... Let me quote u : "If this doesn't get fixed , and soon I don't know what I'll do. Well dude blackmail don't help u at all.
Only what u can do at this moment is switching your class.

Warrior is not a weak class as you have mentioned. A few months ago, sts did buff the tank class skills. You will need more than 2 weeks experience to max out your gear and skills before you conclude that the class itself is weak. Your complaint is that when you get close to the boss the boss kills you in seconds. A red zone always appears before a boss is about to attack. I hope you are moving away from red zones ( a speed bonus pet or speed elix helps) at the right time. Also, use a stun/slow pet for example Kelvin or Slobber or Breeze. Are you using the last upgrade (the shield) on your heal?

I don't see any problem with the other class. The Rogue has already been debuffed because they were an op class. As for you, you still are a low level warrior and probably doesn't have strong equipments. I use warrior as my sub-character and I must say, I'm pretty pleased of its ability and I must disagree that they suck. Yes, they should be strong for they tank and fight close-range. The power is not on the class itself but on your equipments, tactics, and skills. You're still new to this game and still unable to understand the real power of a tank, and what it really means being a warrior.

Sums it up, I agree. Warrior's my best pick and I have no complaints whatever about my class.

agree! those 1hko spikes from paracelsus tend to swarm up at close range if you hold boss' aggro well (will be ridiculous if you're running with another warrior who fights at close range), and many other bosses (thanks to ineffective winding up canceller from chest splitter, and you doesn't have pull/push immunity), and rengol mobs can ridicule you at close range with (almost) impossible to dodge stuns, when you actually have to fight them close, as melee specialist.

**Elwhiz** · 10-27-2015, 10:07 PM

MMORPG needs different classes. And Tanks r no Damage Dealer.If u want to play till maxlevel,you should be shure what you wanna be.

**Vixenne** · 10-27-2015, 11:46 PM

Go for the class you truly love and work hard to gear it up.

Sorry you pick a warrior we are just a big meat shield for mage and rogue or in other words a pawn in the game you alone can't kill boss with that toon your pet prob do more DMG than you as well...

What skill did sts buff? New gear axe throw? Tbh I've seen it and I can't use that After axe throw u sitting duck for a good 5 sec or more to my count DPS need less time to take u out and its not a buff, its a bonus that comes with the new mystic set buff would not confine all to one set. but still I will not be ungrateful for the effort.. Thank u sts.

Warriors have gotten debuff too our heal is not as it use to be sometimes mine is smaller than normal and I miss comrades in clash (get chewed out off) jug break we get stun stun and more stun on jug and occasionally on nekro.. We get nuked fast a die fast if when HP drop %25 your HP is at a critical point and only jug+nekro+heal can bring your HP up or unless a mage heal you... I have all 3 classes and warrior truly is the weakest..

This comment is not fair.. If you like strong close combat characters you will ofc pick a warrior...

I remember a long time ago I read people requesting bosses to one hit kill you I though it crazy but can't really blame sts for this we do have pple that come on here throwing ideas around and not thinking about the ripple effect it will have on game but the point I'm trying to make is with all the weakness in warriors there is no way any Juggernaut should get stun.. Look up the meaning of Juggernaut please...

I chose to be a warrior. A warrior is a close combat powerful class, in most games I should say. I definitely did NOT get the class I chose, instead I got a tank. Just to make things clear for everyone, a warrior and a tank are not the same. The class in this game should be called a tank, not a warrior. For new players as my self when choosing the class I was not expecting a tank. Anyways, I purchased a new character slot and now use a sorcerer as my main. Which I think is WAY better and I am definitely satisfied with sorcerer.
