I'm really looking forward to this, finally we can be a primary Dps class, and not just wanted as healers in groups. The Hunters on the US server don't look too happy though.

I don't look happy aswell. Hunters should be the 1# single target dps. Not an RK. Wy, cuz Rune-keepers can choose between healing and dps and therefore their dps shouldn't be higher then that of a hunter IMO.

What they've done wrong is that they've lowered the dps, instead of highering the tact damage as they've raised the physical damage with MoM. As I read it now, Tact damage is getting more efficient then physical damage (melee/ranged) while it shouldnt be.

go play a runekeeper to level 60 and then see why such change was needed.

also as you correctly state, we either dps or heal, not both effectively EITHER OR. We are also a light armour class and the squishiest in game. Try doing some of the repeatable instances which others classes go into auto pilot mode to complete.

I've read the US forums and seen the reported damage of RK's and what alot of people, hunters included don't understand is that, 6k Epic Conclusion crits aren't just fired off left right and centre, they take time and come with penalties to power usage.

people seem to hone in on one aspect and then like chicken liken think
the sky's about to cave in

As far as I know the nerf wasn't as bad as Hunters seem to make out. Hunters are still the number one Dps class in the game, that has not changed, with Rune-Keepers second to Hunters by a margin, just where they should be. Yes Rune-Keepers can heal, but Hunters can also fit the role of Crowd Control very well. And don't forget Hunters get medium armour, and Rune-Keepers are suck with their dressing gowns, and are as squishy as hell!

Whell looks like the hunters are starting to settle with the fact that they still have better DPS then RK's. And thats all they care about basecly ^^

Only now it's the creeps that are whining that RK's are OP like:
' Omfg we did 10 DoT's on the RK and before he died he hit me with EC and hit me for 4000 dmg!! And a couple of minuits before it he did the same to my m8 =/ They need to be nerfed! Period '

For some reason stuff like that makes me LoL ^^ aaaaah americans...
