    Most of you don't know how it feels to be a Light Dps trying to find a group on LFG... Being a light dps along with the other weak powers(nature, electric,rage and celestial) is hard, because no one wants a dps that's damage output sucks @$$..
    Do you know how it feels to be stuck just doing support roles? I do and it sucks!

    ps: I troll and tank an have more then 200sp on my characters so please don't insult me by saying I don't know what I'm doing. And I'm working on an electric healer even though electric dps couldn't kill a fly if it tried.

    No. Unless they sneak a buff in. Unfortunately if u plan to DPS, u may have to consider that only certain powers are viable. I guess just consider DPS a role and tell urself that u can only be certain powers no different than if u were a tank, troll or heal. Cuz having a 156 dps getting double or tripled in a raid really does suck, especially if the burn is lacking noticeably. Sucks that it is this way but just how it is

    I know of at least 2 HL players that will make HL look beast after it goes live. Every raid I've seen HLVegeta in he keeps up and passes most other DPSs.

    Honestly, Light is the ONLY power I don't have extensive experience with.

    Even back in the day. All that clipping and silly button mashing was just too much.

    I'd love to play it though.

    I might wind up changing my ice villain to HL and building up a troll set. I'd like to return to it since it's one of the most fun classes I've ever played.
  17. Lord Jareth Steadfast Player

    possibly i do that now lol, if i only could do that back then lmao it i had a learning experience with HL, the lesson was Hey Get your SP Up! Lol

    I'm looking for about a 100% increase over the current build on Live. This wouldn't be OP/Ice territory but at least put HL towards the competitive level.

    but to be fair I dont mind any powers even electric or nature DPS', as long as they aren't rushing ahead ect.

    I take any role / powers in raids 9/10 DPS' are earth, sorc, ice, mental, gadgets. Healers are nature or sorc, and tanks are ice and atomic now.

    But I love seeing good earth and fire tanks, and electric / celestial heals.

    I only swapped from earth to atomic tanking because it was new.
