Scout Fix Version: whybotheranymore

Is it worth it to try and make another thread? Should I just go and link to all the older, but just as viable, threads?

Well, here goes another scout fix thread.


Scouts fixes:
1) fix the ranged damage formula so that it actually depends on DPS, not mostly damage
2) increase pdam on bows/xbows
3) increase the damage bonus from ranged weapon mastery
4) increase the %dps boost per lvl for scout skills by ~1%
5) add stacking buff/debuff to autoshot that increases ranged damage
6) increase crit rate boost of target area and add crit damage increase
7) increase effective range of detection
8) increase effective range of all skills
9) make scout bleeds based off of ranged damage, not mainhand
10) put serenity back

kinda brief, if expansion is needed just ask.

and these ideas are probably just gonna get lost in the big black hole that is the scout subforums along with all the rest of the great suggestions.

ty for your time,
cike

It would also be helpful to give the Scout a Dodge on a par with the Rogues so they have a small chance of surviving in melee for a second or two. But nothing is going to happen there is someone somewhere in power who has an intense hatred for the Scout class and will never allow it to be playable again.

Well, I'm not going to hold my breath about any love being shown to the scout class. I love the class, but as has been stated, someone in power hates scouts and will not approve scouts getting UN-NERFED! I'm sure you know who this is Cike. Howdy! ;)

heya :P

I am not holding my breath either. I'd just love to see them fixed. just because the forums are silent about it kinda means nobody cares. I'd like to make a new rule: every time some1 says scouts suck or need help or stear noobs away from scout, they have to come here and post on one of the old scout threads to keep it relevant.

s/m has an aoe damage buff iirc. PA is an aoe skill, as well as generally a hard hitting and long range scout skill.

I would say PVP doesn't really count if your a mage. My mom could one shot a clothy sitting down at the game for the 1st time. I am a clothy so I feel your pain. Only way to survive is walk around with 400k hp which is what i have resorted too.

Apparently not Cike. :( I think it's mainly that it's been stated over and over again. RoM isn't listening and players are just dissapointed in the situation. I know I get frustrated about having my skills nerfed into the ground. ;( I think I'm one of only a few that still plays the scout class exclusively. Would really like seeing the scout class more in game, but hey, it IS Rogues of magic now.

I presume the only way to fix the scout class is to stop everyone from playing it completely. And not just stop playing it, but to delete your scout class from your account(s) entirely. Then they will see incentive to fix it:

Nobody is playing a class?
Make it so everyone will want to play it.
how?
Give it some ridiculous numbers.
Should we test it?
No, just make it over powered.
Why?
So that everyone is scrambling (spending ludicrous amounts of $) to get more over powered than the next.

That's how this game works.

They won't make scouts overpowered. You know why? Because it wouldn't make them any money. Rogues and Scouts wear nearly identical gear, and anybody who would switch to the overpowered class is already a R/M, so wouldn't have to actually make anything new except MAYBE a weapon.

Ermahgerd it's all a conspiracy.
