Hey there.

I will start off with thanking for an awesome server, free to play and its more professional then live with all these small QoL stuff.

In all my days of playing daoc ive never been so baffled how completely useless my class has become, I guess I saw it comming since the hybrids was gonna be added.
Ofcourse these things arent Eden specific stuff but the balance to assassins are completely nuts.

Everyone has been boosted except for assassins, I dont really understand what exactly im supposed to kill.
Earlier i could hope for a crappy player on a hunter or a non templated caster, but now I get completely rekt by every single class in the game.

The hib casters RR5's is freewin, absolutely nothng u can do vs snare nuke or mezz + stunn combined with the RR5.
I cant thing of one single class that that doesent have a hardcounter to my abilities.

I PA a skald for 500 as an RR6 with a template that took 3 weeks to afford, he hits me back for 300 + DD's which is pretty much equal. That and the fact that every other class has IP.

Vamps, where should we start, if i jump one and land PA + CD and debuff weapon speed, dex/quick, con/WS, disease and lifebane, i get him down to lets say 70%, then he regains, heals up to 100% and 4 shots me with his DD when i have capped resist + CL resists.

I run every charge in the game and super twinked the char, still loose pretty much 100% to 0% except if the opponent manage to miss 6 hits in a row and ALL RA's/RR5's and abilities is down.

My last hope is to find someone that forgot the 25% buff mythirian on. TBH, I dont even think i will beat a vamp if he has -100% resists.
The funny part is that along with the EXTREME hardcounter that vamp are to assassins, they also get the stealth detection. Thats insaaaaaane.


The timed mission was a good idea, doesent work in reality though as you have created a whole part of the game for 4-5 classes.

In 2 weeks I havent seen a single Inf or SB running around, just all these OP boosted classes.

A fricken druid pet hits me for harder then I hit the druid, how is that possible when im 50DW and 50 composite slash. My dual shadows hits for less then his PET does.



If i would try to imagine something that would be in comparison with the abilites the other classes have its if Vanish was made so it canceled all moving slowing effects, teleported you to the target in combat and executed PA or Backstab, and this with a 2 minute timer.

Thats how disgustingly bad inf's are.

I feel ya, damage is sub par, survivability is minimal, don't know how other assassins feel but inf's are weak af. Hope assassins get a boost soon

As someone who has played both Shadowblade and NIghtshade in S3. Assassins absolutely suck in Season 3. The archer zergs camping certain areas is the new cancerous playing style and now you can't leave a keep or area without getting shot from 1000 units away even if you have MoS 5.

The Season 3 campaign missions are basically PvE encounters in RvR areas and require groups to do.

It's impossible to solo or even duo in S3.. the RPs have been nerfed to 400 rps per kill or something ludicrous.

They didn't scale assassin damage at all, especially in the CS line. It's pathetic. I got my NS fully decked out and can't fight anything but other assassins. Anyone else who is temped and has even the slightest sense of what they are doing wreck me. Everyone has an I win button. Hybrids wreck me, much less light tanks and tanks. Dont even bother with those. Archers see me from a mile out. I find it hilarious that not only do we hit like wet noodles, our bread and butter stealth opener does less damage than a 2h anytime style. Every single class in the game should be worried if they get hit with a PA combo, not shrug it off like we bumped shoulders. I decided to just shelve him. Maybe come back when/if devs make some needed changes.

also the fact that visi players running at speed 5/6 are able to see and unhide you is a cherry on top of this pie.
Also in the BGs, it is hard to find a sin hunting .... this version of DAOC is everything but DAOC
