One question: How many times have you died to a rager? Because, really, it is incredibly difficult to die to one unless you do something stupid. At any time, you get down to 300 HP you just type, listen closely, "c word," or, to mix it up "c teleport", or, if you can not cast/commune, "quaff (random elixir)" I died to Tordrinrak on a one-shot BS on that night of many deaths for Khiravn, but, seriously, I think that was the first time a rager has killed one of my chars in a good two years, and back then that was only because I was playing a Master in the old rager cabal HQ where you couldn't cast *at all* and I'd raid under any given stupid condition. That, and in no way do I think rager thieves are overpowered. They have *alot* to deal with. Ragers are not overpowered. I'd trade alot of their powers just for the ability to "insect swarm." What your post tells me most of all, Vons, is that you have never played a rager hero, or, if you have, it has not been for a long, long time and you have lost all perspective on the big picture.
