i like the last sentence, its totally true . To the first sentence, id say that an ice mage can lock any 4 star dl placeholders with one ice shard just as quickly as any rogue. but it definitely can go back and forth. its a game of who hits first.Just switch to rogue and get shadowstrike. Lvled up you'll lock 4 star dl with one ss. And you can afk lvl and farm gold more effectively. Richest ppl i know in my world are all rogues that afk farm at the fast spawning wyvern at aggy. Best of all you will never get nerfed, otm will only ever make you more op because plat items will replace all other classes.

#42I take it that he does all his points into dmg skills and lure fire? The true meaning of an endgame mage is help kill the bosses faster by mostly debuffing. If you get a kill on a dl boss it almost 100% means that you weren't luring assassins. If you were, i give great propsi know a certain mage who can out dps rogues on dl bosses it definitely goes back and forth between rogues mages and sometimes rangers for getting the kill on bosses. but as a mage it is most certainly possible to get the kill over the other classes on these bosses.
Mages were op for ow bosses. Mages are the ones who mostly get aggy kills regardless of lures or rogue presence, just because aggy resist poison and not a lot of evasions.
Dl bosses have so many more weakening evasions i find it impossible to be more usefull than a rogue for dl bosses besides lures, and always bring my rogue unless mage parked
Re: Mage, bad class now
#43Skills wise, the speed rogues had on skills (since qs was bugged and main skills werent too amazing) i think mages did much better, mostly one that went full fire with firestorm (with how common it was to be mixed mage, if i had a mage back then i would go full fire), and inc, druids werent there for vines and no bees, inc was top DoT with insta cast firebolt and strong skills COMPARED to others back then, rogues got insanely stronger compared to u3, same as mages but not even close to rogues.

#44The reason people did not use firestorm is because it was magic dmg. So your fire lure didnt affect it.Skills wise, the speed rogues had on skills (since qs was bugged and main skills werent too amazing) i think mages did much better, mostly one that went full fire with firestorm (with how common it was to be mixed mage, if i had a mage back then i would go full fire), and inc, druids werent there for vines and no bees, inc was top DoT with insta cast firebolt and strong skills COMPARED to others back then, rogues got insanely stronger compared to u3, same as mages but not even close to rogues.

#45he is a full focus ice mage. yes, all his skills are damage skills, ice lure, and attune. the only exception is freeze which is not part of his regular build.I take it that he does all his points into dmg skills and lure fire?

Re: Mage, bad class now
#46Well, asked a friend and i'll correct myself, according to that mage he got aggy kills by using inc, it seems reasonable as druids didnt use their vines very often so it was the strongest DoT, while mages were strong compared to classes at u3.The reason people did not use firestorm is because it was magic dmg. So your fire lure didnt affect it.Skills wise, the speed rogues had on skills (since qs was bugged and main skills werent too amazing) i think mages did much better, mostly one that went full fire with firestorm (with how common it was to be mixed mage, if i had a mage back then i would go full fire), and inc, druids werent there for vines and no bees, inc was top DoT with insta cast firebolt and strong skills COMPARED to others back then, rogues got insanely stronger compared to u3, same as mages but not even close to rogues.
I wasnt at aggy kills pre update, we did it with set time which was 5am for me and the kills were very long so im 100% sure on who usually got kills then, i just know that mage was considered a beast and prob got many.
