Beastlords, people loved em .................. but that was eq1.
Bst could melee, had decent pet, had many buffs and could slow.
- First off slow isnt a big deal in this game as it was in eq1. So bst nerf number1.
- Pets for mages and necros are pretty decent in eq2 compaired to the ones in eq1. Bst nerf number two.
- Since eq2 is all about making things equal a bst would be just as necro or mage and dps split between pet and player to make about the same as other classes in same dps tier. Bst nerf number three.
- Buffs would be balanced to place the bst on par with other classes so most likely the bst wouldn't see a major improvement over other classes. Nerf four.
Of course this would be more detailed but this will give ya the run down of how your hopes and dreams of a bst would be killed by eq2 game mechanics. Look at necros in eq2, in eq1 a necro could kill almost anything solo ........... sure necros are pretty good soloers here but they aint no where near what they used to be.
