Samuel, you could always just add a separate damage variable for pets.

Meaning, they'd do say, 300% damage to mobs, but normal damage to players. This makes them great for levelling only, and doesn't ruin PvP. Obviously the numbers are completely random, but you get the idea. Obviously need tweaking so they can't go about soloing boss's willy nilly, but to be frank, tao's always could solo most boss's it just took time.

Tao's have and always should be, the support class. I don't get why people expect them to do ranged DPS like a wizzy would.

That's true like I said in my previous post, but every class should be able to deal damage and it's not as if Taos have any other ranged DPS spells. They're next to impossible to solo level atm and it's becoming tedious.

But yeah, if you don't think it's a great idea upping SFB then use Kori's idea as that would be good too, at least it's something.

tbh it would make more sense to restructure all spells in this fashion, seperate strengths for pvp / pve.

Would take far too much time and effort to do all spells like this. Not sure it would work that well either, as most spells are perfectly fine pvp wise and pve wise... just it seems pets are always the exception.

From the taos lack of damage point of view, if i remember correctly the same debate happened on the official servers to ...which i believe is where the +holy stats first came from (i may be mistaken it was a long while ago ;p)

On another note, can I ask the GMs if any further content is going to be released? Not so much for items but I mean leveling places etc?

The high levels are getting bored now -.-

People actually trying to argue tao's should out DPS warrs? lol.

What has happened to Mir.

There's some truth to this. They added Holy to all tao weapons to give them a much easier time against Undead mobs when using spells, as this was the common mob race in Mir. It just made things a little easier but only against undead mobs. Normal (tamable) mobs weren't effected.

no but if u take into account thats 2 taos killed 30seconds after warrior, warrior could infact kill 4 of these before 1 tao, and that's without accounting for their AOE abilitys such as half moon / crosshalfmoon.

i believe tao should be somewhere around the half way mark, not less than a quarter.

Also me and Mask were fully buffed up whereas Nemo wasn't. No one has said they wan't to out DPS warriors, Koriban, all we wan't is to be able to dish out viable DPS. Right now it isn't even worse having SFB binded to a key, that's how bad it is.

What's the point in giving Taos a damage spell when it doesn't even do any damage?

That would actually lower their DPS greatly. The sole reason their able to do this is because of TDB and FS's single target damage being vastly superior. 1v1 they'll obliterate, always have done.

I agree that you need something buffed, and I've already stated, it should be your pets' damage towards mobs. Not your spells.

I agree - Give them the Holy stats that's fine. And even. No point increasing normal damage even just to SFB as pvp will be vastly op'd. And Taos have always been the hardest to lvl.. but best at PVP. Wizards are different. They are awesome and lvling but crap at pvp. Warriors are in the middle.

Right. next topic:

PLEASE INFORM US WHAT THE NEXT PIECE OF CONTENT IS GONG TO BE AND A ROUGH TIME-FRAME PLEASE?

thankyouloveyoubye.
