Priest Class now is crap.

[ExtraOrdinary]

Mofo, I have read your posts about archers weakness for long long years, I never said "My" priest because I know how to play any class and I enjoy it, I mained priest alot and plenty know it was harder to kill but it have a reason: Its the only class able to ress and change whole PK... so it turn yourself into a punchbag that have to be enough powerfull to kill people without so much rare... and survive. Its the main pk rule, first kill priests, focus on priest, aim priest. If you have all the enemies always hitting on you, and you are unable to cast spells so...
I believe Priest should be strong, more than now, life rares should be removed from symbols and legends or make them deactivated by Life Drain, resist effect on dual clothes must be restored, casting time should be increased depends on CHA or PS , White AC should be added to promove the use of Staff on Priest (maybe make carpenters able to create dual staff for priest with rare effect?), There are many ways to rework this class, but never turning it into shiet like I believe it is now.
To any1 that think this is a complain, can suck your own socks. This is a point of view from a player like me that has been into this game since 0.69 version, from the beggining, and I do respect all points of view without think I have 100% reason so, you are free to give your smart opinion or just flame. I just dont care.

1. no one can really do anything when there's a group of player ganking on u, perhaps warrior and priest can score some kill with ca st before they die, but really u're not suppose able to kill half of them (or even kill all of the ganker) and still manage to make it out safe, this is not lol, that kind of outplay is not going to happen here

2.priest already have all the tools to survive, i dunno what more u asking for, increase spells damage without any damage boosting item doesn't make sense

3.spell casting is fast enough, u don't need it to be any faster, a good priest will be able to escape from a gank with 1 hc and makes u chase them for the rest of the pk

You know thats not true, Priest cant escape. And if you die as priest, whole enemy team will camp til waste your resspots and thats all. You hardly can escape with your movp as archer if theres always 3 (minimum) people focusing on you. So funny for priest to "try" escape and ...? what more? escape to stay hidden?
So sad gameplay, to try reduce priest to just ress and buff without any new content because it was really strong?
Warrior always has been the stronger class, but warriors got buffed here turning it more OP than before. Why nerf the one that must survive to ress others?
Priest been reduced to crap. I cant believe GMSignPainter think this nerf was to balance while warriors are so OP than anyone

that is when you're dead, everyone have to suffer the spawn,not only priest

as for warrior, ya they are at the top when they put on all the defense items on, but if they wants to go full offense, they gotta pay the price by lowering their defense as well, they often die to 1 ex if they are in full offense mode, it is pretty balance tbh

there's really no bad class in this meta, the tier list is not completely balance but it doesn't favor to 1-2 class only compared to previous version

I dont agree, I believe there was an insane nerf on priest class in benefit of every other and now priest cant stand in battle and its forced to go full ac and go hide. Cant stand at pk than with ca/strike rares on full AC. Yes, that thing that everyone cry about, ca and strike. So boring gameplay for priest. Theres zero gameplay on priest now, less than before when everyone cry about LD and hit.

As far as I know, an avenger can run faster than an archer

Priests need a good player to play the class now. No more noobs playing Priest with turtle set. Sorry Colo, I disagree with you on this one! Priest are still strong with a skilled player.

The End.

I think priest is still playable in the current patch with the correct setup and enough skill to handle.
I am fine with those nerfs and changes, however I think the AC change, Nerf and symbol rework hadn't really helped in order to have more different styles priests.
I agree with Brotha that next patch should bring more balance pk especially for priests vs thief/archer who dual priest class with return on.(Hopefully GMSP will have time later on to put it in live server)
Those AC change and symbol rework had NOT changed any play game in priest, had NOT increased any playing styles.
More than 90% of priests still need to wear full ac with smart/eva/wiseor even CA/strike on.
And I agree on Luxi and SS as well (D3 spell probably need a rework and spell dealer priest just not worth it even giving up defensive rares) and I mentioned that few times in forum and in game about the d3 spell and the spell dealer set up in priest.
Sad but true, the NV NV BR Wise set up with 200TT with D3 spell not worth it and Not effective enough to deal good damage (I am even dual Saint for extra Wise effect and give up ac rares in order to have better damage), but its just not reliable and not worth.
I think Mofo probably remember I said that like half year before!? However, sadly those discussions had been flamed by another player that not even playing now.

I agree priest shouldn't be a major damage dealer, but it should still have at least one spell/one way to fight back when the priest is normally first one being aimed...May be something we called Self-defense!?
I tried the set up without ac and other defensive rares, NV, BR and even with dual Saint, the spell dealer playing style priest just really not worth it in current patch.
I tried, but it just too weak and not even effective as well, with the same investments and skills, other 4 classes can perform better than priest in both PVP and PVE aspect apart from priests can ress other which is still making priest important in this game

I believe that Priest has been reduced to nothing, with this changes you cant even wear your staff. Dual 5 opened giving killers the chance to increase tactics, resist on dual clothes removed for priests, critical rares where added, smart/strike combo was modified, ac nerfed and life rares added. As an old player you know to adapt to the new scenario but, the fact you know to play well as an experienced n skilled man you are doesnt mean that every single change was made did give a great disadvantage to Priest class unbalancing it.
You cant deny it.
