I can say I have never heard 3 people contradict themselves so much in the first 20 minutes.

"Fat mages are OP!" then in the next sentence, "the game is missing its dismount mechanics and that was the counter in MO1."

Then other great gems as, "Prior to the patch there were next to no fat mages, now there are more." Well no sh!t Sherlock, fat mages blew hot wet cancerous ass prior to the patch for anything other than a support role. And even then the ever uber dex/dagger mage was king because every fight inevitably ends up on the ground for the typical "elite" pvper.

No wonder Viknuss quit.

Im confused how

"Fat mages are OP!" then in the next sentence, "the game is missing its dismount mechanics and that was the counter in MO1."

is a contradiction they're literally explaining why fat mages are OP, in their opinions, because they cant be dismounted.. It's literally the same train of thought?

It is as Robmo said, Henrik is balancing on what is to come, not on what is. So with people complaining that fat mages shouldnt have got the buff they needed to be viable as a solo class, and then saying well they are missing the dismount mechanic is an obvious issue. And not just to the fat mage balance. It is in effect making MCs completely pointless. You may as well say anything that can stay mounted and kill without being touched by a melee fighter is OP.

Fun fact in reality the man on mount was superior to the man on foot, hence why many armies fielded large numbers of cavalry well into the 20th century. Even to this day the man on a mount... be it mechanical (humvee, IFV, or helicopter) is superior to the light infantry on foot. Mobility is the true king of battle.
