History repeats itself: Time for the Great Archer Nerf of 2011

[Peregrine]

And have you already forgotten the video Doctor Mog made especially for you showing you that you can achieve the same damage output on PUG?

Show me data that I give a damn about. Spike damage isn't very relevant data compared to what I just told you, where archers come out on top of meleers consistently throughout all the nm fights. In actuality, archers come out on top of pugilists more than that video actually shows. Which it still shows archers coming out on top. What was it, 1200 versus 900?

Archer beats pug by more than 20% I'm looking at the data right now. 18% versus 24%, which is an absolute difference at the great buffalo of 6% or a relative difference of 33% more effective. You just think. I know.

I already know that 3 archers creates 1 phantom meleer. The data simply proves it. So does the collective mass of the population, which has its own intelligence on-par with data analysis power.


You think whatever you want. Reality will go on without you and reality will be based on reality no matter what you think. I know for a fact that at R60-65 NMs, having three archers in a party is like having a free meleer that doesn't take up a party slot. Therefore, a group of glad, archerx6, thaumaturge has the damage power of a 10-man team with none of the AoE danger.

Br-o-o-o-oken. Infallably. Mathematically. Broken.
