After leaving mir when euro closed and stopping playing private servers pretty much the same time I loved on to wow for a few years. I stopped gaming as I dodnt have the time with kids and work. Mir popped back up on YouTube and it give e the bug to play again. So I decided to play here. With not having more than an hour here or there to play, I was lucky enough to be giving a lvl 56 tao. After a week or two playing and not getting very far, as leveling is a nightmare with a tao especially solo.. its also real hard to do instances. I was ready to give up mir again until I was giving a lvl 55 sin.. this is more enjoyable as I can still do a fair bit on content on it in my limited time.
The point ofc the post is that tao I know is a support class, but I've found that the majority off bosses and instances just dont need a tao. Which isn't good for the likes of me wanting to play one, and would, I assume put off people making one unless they have a very large amount off spare time to lvl it up to the highest levels. I am only new so I'm prob not the best to comment to much. But the tao class does need looked at. It's not great for soloing anything I find. If it's not needed to kill most bosses then surely it can be made that it can compete solo.
