    NTs are fine <-period

    that's why you're not getting love. best? maybe not. worst? NO WAY! Yeah it sucks you can't use your highest nano lines yourself but MA can't use their highest bow themselves either - and in PvM they obviously dont NEED to equip a Q200 bow to deal substantial damage.

    Anyway point is, as an NT, if you want you can use the best dmg gun in the game for non-soldiers (which is Q200 Manex), OR a QB - and still have nukes. Since I have a good deal of experience with both classes ("both" being MA/NT), I can say with confidence that NT dont need anything (besides, you're getting that deck soon and I bet the farm all it has on it is +300 MC@ TL6), and all MA needs is their crits back in PvP (or higher base fist damage, or WWK, or a bow buff - but not all of them, IMO just one would be enough of a "fix"). *shrug*

    All I can say is be thankful you had a period of time where your MA was actually uber. I beleive your place in line is back there.....pick up your little blue suit and head to the back of the line. You can wait just like us engies and mps.

    MA's are fine

    MA's want the best of both worlds, not only do they do great hand to hand damage, but they also want a ranged weapon that pours out damage like gas at a chili festival.

    PLUS !! MA's are already the second best Nano to Health converter professions in the game.

    MA's are standing in the nine items or less line with a cart of 40 items.

    Hardly. Most of them chose ma to be a martial artist not to be an archer As it stands now the role of an ma in mass pvp is reduced to being an archer with a poor weapon (pow bow) that is still the best weapon they can equip.

    Don't know the figures for nano/health on enlightened aura of healing compared to other heals therefore I won't comment on that. However they aren't very good healers. 8 sec recharge (unaffected by nano init btw) on their top heal that heals for about 700 on average. Hardly overpowering, slightly better than belamorte. Over time an ma can heal about as much as a soldier can with one more hit healing. Look up the respective nano's if you doubt that. Docs, adventurers and enforcers (mongo + layers) are way more efficient at selfhealing in pvp. Traders about equal and mp's a bit worse.
    That's the fabled 'MA healpower' for you: 700 on average with 8 sec recharge.

    eeuh ma only items:
    4 suits, aura magnifier (very rare tarra drop), claws?, torture tool, howling bow (not ingame), spirit focus tattoo

    I may have forgotten some obscure item but I certainly haven't forgotten a lot. Not really that much ma only items when you try to sum them up is there?

    Possibly you just like to bash down people, possibly you are just misinformed about ma's.

    PvM (as long as mob ql < 210 anyways) ma's are still a very, very good class. They are tailormade for BS missions so to say.

    PvP MA's are very bad atm. Fists are crit reliant weapons. Crits got halved in pvp. IE ma's don't deal a lot of damage in pvp using fists. Very little actually.
    Secondly using fists in mass pvp usually requires you tp get close to your opponent. Kindof hard to do with all the roots flying around. Never wondered why you see most ma's using a bow in mass pvp? Maybe you should think of that a bit, I'll give a tip: bows are not a very good weapon

    ROAR !

    MA's are the second best Nano to Health converters, Mongo is self only, MP pets aren't a Nano to Health recharge and have a much longer refresh rate. Soldiers are invited to teams for the damage and tanking ability, not for healing.

    Everyones crit chance was reduced.

    MA's aren't Bruce Lee in the same light as Agents aren't James Bond, in AO it's adapt or die

    MA's don't have to run around begging MP's for nano skill buffs just to be competitive like Engie's, Crat's or NT's

    Tower PvP requires support from many professions, it isn't a one on one duel in the carebear environment of Tir Arena. I get the feeling that many people are gas camping for solo duels and are getting their ass handed to them, then come here to b^%$h how they got rooted and reclaimed.

    BTW: Agent's are the AO Archer class, when the tank class gets close, I run to recover distance, when I get rooted and then engaged by a MA/Enf/Sol I'm dead meat

    If it's a MA, root him before he is near you just like the adv, root them.... pretty simple.

    MA's require support, if you guys want to run around the LC unit area like a fixer or agent, I WILL root and reclaim you. If you tanks wait for me at the LC Unit, I'll be the one at reclaim.

    gotta say MA is #3, advent is #2

    all has to do with healing/time and ma heals have longer recharges.

    {edit} 2nd to 3rd best nano converters

    What MA's really want is a inate ability to resist roots and a Pow Bow that hits like a X3 with 41M range at 1:1 on full defense, but will still allow them the Bruce Lee kung fu benifits.

    what really blows me away is that MA's were Funcom's lovechild for a long time, then they were nerfed to as bad if not worse than when they were the damage capping kings.

    now, assuming funcom is predictable, Fixa's are going to get a major gimpage in a couple of months, and a couple of months after that enforcers will get a major gimpage. (following the order of lovechildness).

    the reason MA's are worse than when they were capping is because lots of classes have gotten love (fixer, enforcer, meta's (yes it was a while ago, but you got it), agents (200% crit chance), advents (sol blades and new nano's)....

    basically you guys are where you were then, and the rest of us (sorry engies ) are better than we were then.

    bah.

    we are talking pvp only here obviously, as pvm MA is still a force.

    When I play a MA, PvP is something I stray far from. Now, if the MA played like they should, having throwing items, spears, numbchucks(sp?), and other items that can cause more pain then constant fist attacks, then I think it would be more realistic. However, I have to say that it's not too realistic to say that MAs should be able to do well at killing others who have guns and/or more dangerous weapons.

    After all, aren't MAs masters of certain weapons, also? As a MA, I sure don't see much of anything that I can use as a weapon in AO. It's something I would like to see added to the profession, other than just 1 new bow. I don't want to be an archer, but give me the opportunity to use throwing stars, chucks, staffs, poison darts, and other MA type items and I'm sure the range and damage could be much more realistic.

    Anyway, just my 2 cents as to what I always wanted an MA to fight like in PvP. I have a very difficult time thinking anyone can dominate in PvP using only there fists when others have guns, offensive nano lines, pets, and etc...

    *Reminds me of a movie I saw...a MA was going crazy in front of a guy with all his fist action...the guy just pulls out a gun and kills him...end of scene*

    Lokgen, you obviously don't know how useless are MAs in notum wars.
    Personnaly, I don't care about my fists damage, since I CAN'T use them.
    Any fix that will be done to our fist will just be useles. Only things that might help us is a way to break roots. Or deadly bows, and bow buffs, but if that's the only way to do decent dmg in pvp, that'll piss off all the MAs that chosed this prof to do melee dmg.

    Oh well, I don't even know why I answer you... I bet you'll ask for a MA nerf in your next post.

    Chopit, FC tried to introduce Sharp Obj in 14.6, here's the result :
    Aluminum Throwing Dagger
    That was bugged and, frankly, i doubt any MA would have spent 200k IP to use such crappy item.
    Imho, a MA, once he succeded to approche his target, must be deadly. That's why, we must be sensible to roots and snare. But atm we are ultra sensible to roots, and even if we succed to approch our target, we won't do significant damage.

    BUMP for a MA fix, I frankly don't want to lvl a TL6 enforcer.

    It's ok to be angry and flame me, but you still want it all, close combat damage dealing combined with the ability to sling arrow's like an X3 / 41M at 1:1 full def AND heal yourself at the same time AND have the ability to INSTANTLY break roots.

    /soapbox
    MA need to adapt, if you need to bring a root class along with you to a tower battle then do it.

    My NT ALWAYS teams with a fixer friend, we work in concert together, nothing needs to be said between us during battle because we each know each other, and know how to deal with player adds. With all of that in our favour, I still live at reclaim more than on the battlefield.

    I feel no pity for MA'S
