Yes yes, those are priest/clerical guilds. Sure. But that doesnt change the fact that we'll be looking at 3 evil casters, 1 neutral and 0 goodie caster. Except from pretty lame ones like valars and rangers. Even if rangers and valars could counter all that from a player against player perspective (which I doubt!!) its still pretty sad from an RP perspective if you wanna play a goodie spellcaster. Your only option will be the new elemental, and you'll still have the share the guild with a bunch of evils (I assume). So...... I just think its a weird decision to remove the undead counter guild, the only goodie casters, Scops. You might say they technically arent "goodies", just anti undead, or whatnot, but in Genesis they are counted as "goodies" for sure. And instead add another undead caster guild. So instead of one undead caster guild, and one anti undead caster guild, you get 2 undead casters. I just cant figure out how it makes sense... The logical choice to me when its 2 vs 1 is to add one to the 1 side so it becomes 2 vs 2, not remove the 1 and add another to the already bigger number side making it 3 vs 0!
Rock, papers, scissors or not. It doesnt compute for me. And whats rock, paper and scissors anyway? Magic guilds beat fighters? And.... nobody beats magic guilds? If magic is paper, and fighter is rock, then paper always beat rock, but there's no scissors around to beat the paper. Except possibly rangers, who to my knowledge have a decent, but not great, chance to _escape_ the mages. But fight them? Kill them? Hm? And if after the recodes they have a better chance against mages (maybe they do?) the poor rangers still have a lot of "papers" to cut...
And it seems so complex! Why not have equal numbers of good and evil caster guilds? Thats so much simpler. 2 each. Wanna play a goodie caster, have fun. An evil? Have fun. Wanna fight, sure, we have two each so that should work out. I just dont get it! Oh I get you wanna work on what you wanna work on. But it still has to fit into the game right? Aaaaanyway, the biggest question for me is from RP point, maybe stuff will balance out in pvp, but that we dont have many options if we wanna play in a goodie caster guild is sad, and the only one we have is removed, or transformed, to a more neutral one.
