Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
This is exactly what I needed to entertain myself for an hour or two a few nights a week. Pretty cool, thanks

Up to 37 on my little troll sk. It's pretty fun, but some classes seem like a lot more work than others (specifically bards). I am hoping that the caster classes get better with +cast speed gear, because right now they do seem a bit boring compared to the melee and hybrid classes.
Anyways, here are some numbers I've put together for itemization:
4 Resist = 1% Spell Damage Reduction.i.e.100 resist is 25% DR; max of 300 (75% DR).
1 Defense Skill = 3.5 Armor Class
1 Weapon Skill = 2 Attack
1 Strength Attribute = 1 Attack
1 Offense Skill = 2 Attack
If anyone can help confirm these, I would appreciate it.

You can clickhold and drag around. At least I was able to move my pet summon spell on the precombat bars.

its a single player game, no need to make all the classes equally balanced
Itemization at at higher lvls is kinda meh or i just have bad luck. Been getting way too much caster uniques and Vox is so damn rough , had her to 1 bar and i was at 2 was whittling me down and my fear had just come off cooldown(SK btw) and she blasted me for 296 , now i cant even drop her 1 bar she just chain casts her nuke and demolishes me. Although im only lvl 48 , but i almost had her was thrilling hehe. Very fun game , thoroughly enjoying it.
Shouldn't be. Bosses have 1/2 second cast time with a few exceptions (Vox's heal). Any spell can be interrupted, but it might require some anticipation.

I wasn't talking about balance, I was talking about the actual act of song twisting. It actually feels likework, and isn't fun or relaxing like any of the other classes. It is too much like EQ's bard, only complicated further by the fact that you are tanking, and thus you are constantly being interrupted by stuns.
So Maelfyn, any way you could have selos reduce stun chance? Or maybe just allow ogres to be bards? I think I can live with that.
I beat Vox at 55 with a paladin, was a tough fight for sure. I was using ghoulbane/steelclash and had my cold resist around 200. I'd suggest having your resists as high as possible as the boss spell casting is usually what gets me the most.
Bosses might be a bit tough, but this is balanced assuming that talents are already in the game, which they're not. So hopefully when talents go in, bosses on nightmare will be a bit more reasonable at level 50 for all classes.
Do you mean bosses on normal? Or are we going to be doing bosses in nightmare mode at lvl 50 with talents?

Killed all but CT/Inny for now. I can take them on pretty well until they decide to barrage the fuck out of me. CT does... flurry or enrage one of those, and Inny just cast fucks me. I was half tempted to spend a few hours refreshing in lguk until I got raster, but didn't want to look stupid if he wasn't in game.
