What are they like, how do they compare to bright wizards, Engineers, Archmages and Runepriests for ranged dps?

Please let me know for both for lvl 10 cap and what they used to be like at 40!

Looking forward to hearing your views as i always wished i had rolled one.

Festerbomb mwahahaha

Fantastic troll class if you wanted to take someone for 70% health to zero in a gcd. You could only do it once per minute but was worth it.

Great solo kiting class. Had quite a few abilities to really annoy. Ranged kd, self punt of cliffs that wouldnt kill you and leave a group snared. Probably the most fun class in the game to annoy with. And festerbombing was something only sw could do even if there were better use for your morales.

Once you've owned some poor sod with that how did they fare for the next 59 seconds :)?

Really squishy but were the swiss army knife of war. Had so much cc and interesting abilities. I came late to the class and wished I had played it first. If you got good they had a counter for just about anything.

Like all glass cannons gear made a huge difference as you could survive the minor slip up and put out serious dps.

Decent. Mainly a kiting dot class at that level you'll spend most of the time in skirmisher. Until the level cap is rose to 15 so you can get their morale 2 damage increase. Thats when they get their proper nukes.

I can't sorry! I don't really like pet classes and I'm relishing the opportunity to play an archer class without the pet :)

Also all the videos i've seen of the server are destruction zerging order and i'm a ****** for the underdogs, they need me man!
