Okay Now that I have your attention


I like what I see with the upcoming FIXES, and I mean FIXES but as we all know, now that we wont be the cannon fodderon the PVP battlefield everyone will be crying bloody murder since they wont be able to farm us Carbineers any more. As we all know, the first little while everyone will be "Oh they finally fixed Carbineer, You guys needed it" but then, after the novelty wears off they will be screaming HEH its not fair blah blah blah, I cant solo twenty master Carbineers anymore what gives? (exagerastion of course)


Now before you start saying, I play my carbineer and I do quite okay, Yes, a very determined, experienced buffed and uber equipped Carbineer can be a deadly force in PVP but that just it, the majority of other combat professions dont have to have half a smuck to play their classes to be deadly and when they are good at playing their classes, forget it we lose more often then not.


Im just saying that enjoy this little time we have coming to us where we will be looked upon with respect and actually considered a feasible fighting class until they bring us back down and beat us with the nerf bat.


Next week," Star Wars or Brave Heart, why does ranged weaponry suck in a modern age game?"

lets save thetalk on how "overpowered" we'll be until after the patch. carbineer will never be as high on the nerf list as combat medic, rifleman, and teras kasi.

IMO, TKAs are perfectly fine...

But I agree on Rifleman and Combat Medic... they need nerf...

i dont have any problem with tk or rifleman, combat medic on the other hand...


but there is a huge following that all seem to agree that those 3 are the some sort of hellspawn.

Well im not trying to say we are going to be overpowered, my point is we will be fixed and working properly. People will percieve us as overpowered because we wont be complete pushovers and suddenly our moves will not only be killing ourselves but killing others as well. We have been broken for so long that others take it for granted that we are just useless and that is the way we are supposed to be.

I agree totally. We have been underpowered for so long, with the exception of the chargeshot spamming, but now we are getting the fixes we need to dominate the PvP field and it will only be a matter of time before some people start complaining. It happens all the time folks.

The nerf bat comes to all it's just how you live with the nerf bat, do you have honor and not call upon the nerf bat to bring pain upon others or are you a cowardly whiner that screams nerf this and nerf that.(BTW eventhough I threaten I will call upon the nerf bat once rifleman is nerfed, it's only a hollow threat made in anger)


When Rifleman got it's fixes(Removeal of 2.5 melee + Huge accuracy boost + Huge defence boost) we had the same posts as this one and in those posts I said yes we are going to get nerfed. It's human nature to want to bring people down to your level to make yourself feel like a big man.

theres a difference with the rifleman example there tho, they didnt get fixed like we're getting fixed. they got some hinderances taken away and some added bonuses,theONLY thingwe're getting is working special attacks.

Aye, every class from the get go of the game was broken in some way, some more then others, of all the combat professions, Carbineer has been the most broken of them all, noone had or has 13 broken specials not to mention balancing issues, defence issues ham costs etc. What we are going to see is that by us being FIXED is going to be such a large shift in our spectrum of abilities that it might appear to others that we are suddenly overpowered. these specials they are fixing were supposed to be ours from the very start. As the devs start addressing our speed and ham issues it might also appear to others that suddenly SOE views us as the new flavour of the month. But I just hope that the rest of the community realizes, and continues after the fixes that they were necessary to bring us inline with the other professions and make us a feasible choice next to swordsman, tka, rifleman etc....I hope for a day when I can say Im a Master Carbineer and people say cool instead of "sorry about your luck" "Why?" or just plain laugh

Tera Kasi im my opinion could use some tweaking as far as where there specials are located within there tree. Force of Will should be a Master TKA special only.

Yep and to everyone but a carbineer this means overpowered..I like carbineer so far and can't wait to see what the future brings.. But when they finally "fixed TKA to work properly", NerfNerds came out of the wood work in droves.
