Dose any one else think buffs cause a seriouse inbalance in pve and pvp. I find that things like ns (any of them) shuld not be singleable. Buffs are a great idea but they go far too high they shuld be capped at a lower # like 800. If this were to happen doctors would still give people a much needed edge but they wouldent throw away the multiplayer asspect of pve.

In pvp buffs make the only pool targeted the mind pool. This of course leads to some professions becomeing over powerful. And it makes some fights go on for quite a while.

these are the problems but i dcouldent think of a good soulution other then reduce buff efectivness.

You do know all these issues you stated are being addressed in the upcoming combat balance, don't you?

That said, yeah, I'd agree with you that currently buffs are somewhat overpowered (as well as armor). But that's just my opinion since I was never really a big fan of the godmode thing in combat. So I'm basically just on stand by to see what the Devs are coming up with to solve that.

What worries me a bit though is the fact that there are a lot of players out therethat actually like the way that the combat system works today (meaning being able to solo basically all creatures with the right template). There will be alot of bickering depending on what the Devs do.

Guess we can only hope they're able to find a moderate solution for this.

Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime,
Therefore, we are saved by hope.
Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history;
Therefore, we are saved by faith.
Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone.
Therefore, we are saved by love.
No virtuous act is quite a virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as from our own;
Therefore, we are saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness.

This is the only MMORPG I'm aware of that makes soloing mid and high level content so easy with simple enhancements. The dev's are just going to have to break down and make it right. The kids who are used to playing games with the easy mode on will just have to adapt. Besides, even those kids eventually get bored with "easy" and try for "hard".

This is why I'm in love with JTL....its mostly and even playing field.
