>Anyway, I said it before and I'll say it again, rager berserkers are over powered.

They're at the height of their power in the level range in which you spent the majority of your life.

> Anyway, trell had a *huge* backstory, and frankly some really great rp. And thanks to whichever Imm switched into the perpetuim and did my tattoo interview. If it was you, nep, it was quality as usual, but somehow i got the feeling it was not you, since you didn't show yourself, you used a mob even to tattoo. *shrug* Either way, it was good as usual.

That was me.

> What sucks is all my plans for the hero level stuff I wanted to do. But I had made the role one where he wouldn't really back down, and so I was *really* reckless alot, and of course part of the plan was to show how over the top rager berserkers are. So I'd be running into groups of three or four. And I'd win alot. Wacky.

I don't think you would. I wish you'd tried it.

> But then the last few days we didn't have the head and so I just kept dying, and having a 14 con for levelling purposes just sucks. I levelled from 28 to 29 with a 17 con and got only 13 hp, so with a 14 con, well, it just didn't seem worth it.

I know you consider yourself one of the better players. How many of your other characters have had to try to level with shitty con? Ask yourself again, is this overpowered? I know you're thinking that it's because you kept getting ganged down, or because you had to fight without the head sometimes, but that is the reality of being a rager. Being a rager without the head is not as good as being an uncaballed warrior.

> But let me tell you, folks, that I'd have been even tougher as a hero.

I know it looks that way, but I beg to differ. I'd honestly like to see you try being a hero rager warrior. That's not because I want to see you proven wrong or anything like that -- I'd just like to see it.

> If you know what the tattoo does, together with entwine.... mages would be very unhappy.
I know what it does, and let me just say you're missing something important and leave it at that.
