The willingness of hibs to run out and defend our keeps these days is very good to see. We could have been better before tho there was just not any interest in it. And yes vamp and bainshees r OPed but so r Valks and WLs. Tho Xest says heretics r useless, maybe at higher lvl but not in BG. And they still got necros and reavers...........
Only class that has spanked my vamp in thid solo is a reaver, think about that. Tho he was fully buffed, i wasn't (wunder why?). :)

the effectiveness of a class in Thid is irrelevant, as thid dosent matter, and I think you need to rethink using the term "overpowered", as neither Valks or Vamps are, they are at most "effective".

Heretics are useless everywhere and I'm not sure what makes you think valkyries are overpowered.

No he didn't, ml9 pet is the same effect as juggernaut, and most likely what they have since juggernaut is a waste of points when you have acces to ml9 convoker.

It's prolly easiest for mids to make easy rps without a good grp, as on prydwen at least bryjia bridge is pretty much perma activity...at least for the solo/duo etc stuff. Less so for the other two realms that have to mess about with boats - give more DC dock camping !!

But I kinda agree, if you don't want or can't solo and haven't got a GG, it's not hard to make a small skirmish grp and run about less active areas. Peeps seem fixated on filling up grps alla the time tho - even if there's not really the lvl of activity to justify it. Just get stuck in.

Mael, 50th ment.

Personally I would like to see Malev come back and make a go of the champ in the current state of the game..... ;)

Yeah, for some reason Bled is perma busy on Merlin also, what's lame though is by perma-busy I mean around 10 warlocks, 5 BDs, 20 Mid stealthers at any one time :p They even got so lame as camping the bled boat dropoff with 3fg the other week. Thing is though, if you dropoff away from there and just drop speedwarps by the bridges you can usually pull some away and get some decent fights with them dispatching them or being dispatched before the zerg realises some of their flock has wandered too far and been eaten by a lion and hence stampedes towards that area.
