    It sounds to me like you're saying, "The way we do things may not work, but at least we're keepin' it real!"

    The fact that archers do more damage than gladiators is not an imbalance. It's the way SE designed them. Is the fact that gladiators can take more damage than archers also an imbalance?

    Besides, watch that video. I see more than one archer. That party is hardly without its share of DPS.

    What's regrettable is the member of Diplomats that deserved to eat the most crow was not present at Tuesday night's wipe.

    We fought it like a smooth machine and it raged.
    You did not see us take down Uraeus twice earlier in the evening, where our clearly defined tank did not lose hate once, battle regimens were executed precisely, and buffs were kept up right on schedule. We were hardly "bumbling".

    I didn't say archers were imbalanced because they damage more than glads, strawman. I said the setup was imbalanced because we have too many mages and gladiators, and archers are imbalanced because they out-DPS marauders lancers and pugs by at least 30%. If you rely on 3 and 4 archers to kill your NMs for you, you're not skilled. You've got a high golf handicap. Sam sam sam brd brd cor-getters.

    What I'm saying is that skill has nothing to do with any of this. If we're doing something wrong, then it's just wrong done well. I don't know. I'm not a part of our deficiency because I'm not a DPS yet. Maybe we need to drop emphasis on battle regimen if this setup should have been done better. None of the DPS are poorly equipped. It's got to be one of the most boring 30 minutes in the game, as no tanks died until they were hit for 9999 and it switched targets maybe once.

    What am I going to do, throw in a 55 damage profundity when it's up? Maybe we need to scrap the way we damage altogether. We lose a lot of DPS just waiting on regimen stragglers.

    Errr.... i dont kow if you have a mage job or not but on ureaus u can do any where from 45 - 200+ dmg on it. Maybe you should look into that. This is not to blast you or your mages, just a suggestion to solve your dps problems.
