Balancing classes

[King]

Hey guys, I've now played all chars over level 50 and wiz over 60 now I feel I can give a proper opinoin on what changes should / need to be made. I won't be playing much longer but just wanna give some opinoins for Lapta and co to help out the server from a players perspective.

Mob wise:
Wizard, wizards can mass kill with a lot of damage, FF doesn't suck at all as some complain, on my wiz I was doing around 200 FF damage. This is more damage than most warriors can hit a single target with. Also, FlameField can hit up to 25 targets (25*200 = Max of 5000 damage in one hit) Can clear the entire ZumaPalace room easily and fast. Can TurnUndead slaves. Can solo OmaLords and MirKings easily.

Warriors, warriors can solo some stuff, but they need a tonne of stats and a bag full of pots to do so, you need like 40 accuracy, 10 PA, 10 Slow for a OmaLord. Leveling wise, they suck it takes too long to kill groups of mobs, ever hear a noob asking a Warrior to help them level? no.

Taoist, taos suck vs mobs, but they're a support class so you can't really expect a tao to own solo hunting mobs, Boss wise they are ok, but they take FOREVER to kill stuff and this should be fixed imo. Soloing a OmaLord on a tao is pointless, takes way too long. Call a wiz.

PVP Wise:
Wizards, a good player on a wiz is hard to kill, with 5 FrostTigers and mirror, a wizard is pretty much unstoppable vs a single Tao/Warrior.

Warriors, warriors suck at PVP, unless they're sneaking up on a target then, meh you probably gonna get owned 1v1 Tao or Wiz.

Taoist, taos are really good at PVP but I still find myself more successful as a wiz, taos can poison, deva and SFB. It works well but the problem is even if you win the fight, the person has alot of time to just escape as you cant just kill someone on a tao with a few hits.

What I think
In all honesty I think right now Wizard is the best class, handsdown. Firstly we level the fastest, giving us an early advantage at being stronger than most people. Secondly killing bosses is easiest on a wiz, meaning that we get rich fast too, Thirdly Blizzard owns lol.

However, I don't really think wizards are OVERPOWERED, I just think Tao and Warriors are underpowered. The wizard class works very well on this server, any high level wiz you ask I'm sure they will tell you they really like their char, whilst poor Tao's and Warriors are stuck remaking wizard chars. So I think Wizards should be left untouched and take some time to work on Warrior/Tao.

Taoists mainly need buffing in solo hunting. They need to be able to deal more damage with SFB / AdvancedSFB, but only to undead mobs (aka all bosses/BDD), I'm thinking to buff Holy on some items but i'm not sure exactly how it works? Also another idea I had was to give Shinsu another skill and more AC i'm unsure if its possible but you could give shinsu a different skill when its level 7 (Cross Halfmoon Shinsu ftw) These two suggestions will help Tao's in leveling and boss hunting, but they won't really affect them in PVP.

Warriors mainly need buffing in PVP. The problem with Warriors isn't the damage they deal or the damage they take, its the fact that in Mir its simply too hard to hit a runaway tao/wiz. Only way to fix this would to be to add a new Warrior skill. My idea for the new warrior skill would basically be: EarthQuake - same graphic as MeteorStrike and hits 3 times just like MeteorStrike, however it cant be cast anywhere, only can be casted around yourself like FlameField so you have to be close to the target. Damage per hit should be based on DC. This skill would allow warriors to actually hit people sometimes and should have the same recast timer as MeteorStrike so it can't be spammed. It will also help in hunting mobs and make warriors a bit more useful in groups.

Any comments welcome
