I am co-oping with a friend who is a Wizard, while I am a Warrior. He does most of the damage and at times obliterates areas to Kingdom Come! I, on the other hand, am just cannon-meat. I take damage, but I do very little damage myself. I also TRIP AND FALL all the damn time! What is up with that? Madora also sucks.
Warriors are supposed to be able to take more damage than wizards, but they BARELY handle more. I am only level 4 I think and I've been putting skills into Constiturion and Strength. I also found some decent +20 and even a +31 armor, +8 shield, a helmet, etc. Yet, I still do less damage with my awesome single-handed axe that takes 3 action points to do something like 47-60 damage. I mean when I hit, I do good damage, but wizards cause WAY more damage with their spells and over great distances. Warrior are seriously under-powered in this game. They die really fast, much faster than they should be to be.
I've played many games as a tank, and a tank is supposed to be just that - a TANK, taking on many opponents at once without dying too fast. I know this game is different, but with all its creativity and use of environment, intelligence, etc. is made Warriors a useless class.
Then there is the whole thing of tripping and falling over ANYTHING at any time! WTF is that?
It also creates a big problem when my friend casts Wizard AOE spells that damage me as well, almost as bad as enemies. That makes Warrior + Wizard a really bad combination because Warriors only fight up close, where they are vulnerable to friendly AOE spells.
Anyway, I think this game needed a few more months to iron out the bugs and re-balance all the classes. From what I saw in the beta release notes, a TON of features were only recently added. How do developer just manage to add something that affects the whole game without going through it and re-balancing it?
