> Any class that can do this: > 1. Limit the pure concentrated physical power of the rager. > (1) - You have to prepare before taking any rager. Do not at any time allow yourself to take a rager opponent lightly, or you'll likely be surprised. I say this from experience, that every time I did, I was burned, and every time I was burned, I took at look at my prep, and noticed *something* that I missed. By prep, I mean: fly/protections/bash-retardants (size or shield). If you can't get all those going, don't bother. > Shamans, Necromancers, Paladins, Mages all have these capabilities. Warrior-types have it a bit harder. > Basically, when you look at a rager, 99% of the time you know what he's capable of, and what his limitations are. They are the most limited cabal, which, eventually, will make you feel sorry for them, and appreciate the very rare exceptions that do something *amazing* and startling.
> 2. Exploit the dangers of using bloodthirst.
> 3. Maledict.
> (2) - Mobs. A class that can summon has an easy way of doing this. Other classes have to lure the rager into bad, bad places for him to fight.
