I certainly hope so. I've been gathering data to make the case.
I'm probably not a typical Bright Wizard though. I twink myself with PQ rewards before I'm level appropriate and I liberally use my pots.

Pro-tip: Sorc/BW self-inflicted Backlash/Explosion damage is included in scenario damage summaries, inflating the damage totals.

While I agree with your initial statement as a good rule.... Pretty much everyone agrees bright wizards are badly in need of a little time with the nerf bat.

So should I play my ironbreak or rune priest? I am leaning more to the tank, since I am almost positive I will be a healer of some type in release. Gonna bug the mancers tonight for an invite, it will be from Jabor or Jaborina
BW are no more overpowered than Sorcs, but you never hear people bitching about Sorcs.
Most people are still new to the game and haven't learned to deal yet. Use terrain to block line of sight. Elemental resist. Initiative to reduce your chance to be crit. Willpower to increase your chance to Disrupt. Tanks actually equipping shields and using Hold the Line (+15% disrupt to those behind them, stacks from 3 tanks up to +45%) instead of playing loldps with a 2h.
I doubt I am going to be rolling Chosen as my main when this starts up, but so far my Chosen has given me my all time favorite moment of this game.
Khaine's Embrace scenario, we were losing pretty badly. My team was dumb, but I managed to get a couple disciples healing me. I am desperately defending our flag, but someone manages to snag it in the two seconds I turn my back to kill an archmage. The horn goes off and everyone clears out except for me and this one White Lion (Who had been doing damn well this game and harassing me with his kitty). My healers are long gone and I am 1/5 health when we both realize we need to book it out of there. The White lion knows he can kill me so he takes off after me as I run to the safe area. The explosion starts to advance, but we could easily make it to the border. I realize that I absolutely will not survive this elf on me if we get to the safe area, so I stop directly in my tracks, whip around, and slam directly into him. Due to collision detection I managed to hold him about 10 feet away from the safe area and we were both engulfed in the explosion.
I could actually hear him shouting "Noooooooooo!" through the internet.
Sorry if this has come up already but this thread moves pretty fast...
Anyways I finished DLing the beta client this morning, and put in my CE beta code thing to the european site this afternoon (about half 2pm). No confirmation email yet (8:10pm). How long is it likely to take? Just wondering if I misstyped something and if it's worth trying to enter it again.
People have said to simply click on "Re-Send" and it will resend.
Swordmasters suck as tanks even if their mechanics function just fine dandy but they just dont look like proper tanks.
Only way I can tell a Swordmaster from the other two classes is if one is running up on me, solo. Otherwise I just assume its an Archmage or a White Lion.
Uhh.. what resend? I don't see any re-send buttons on the page.
Nope, no re-send. No confirmation email yet either, maybe it's down or taking a while at the moment?

Easiest counter to Bright Wizards from my experience so far is to have a Marauder or Witch Elf go around the side and pick them off, but this requires competent players and usually some healing on the Marauder/Witch Elf, neither of which you will really see in your usual pickup scenario.

In case you didn't notice, I'm Nerfus. And second, it's not the damage I look at. It's my killing blow to death ratios. In that game, it was 10-0. It's not that uncommon to get stuff like 20-0 either.
Seriously, there are a ton of Bright Wizards whining about "Oh we're so fragile and weak" and "Combustion damage is too high" and "Make meltdown (combustion dump) instant and increase its damage" Yeah, that's why I kill way more than I die.
If you'd prefer numbers from the combat log parser I can provide those as well.
If they refuse to properly balance Bright Wizards, then I'll just main a Bright Wizard instead.
Thing is there are so many scenarios that you can't have just 1 list of highest damage. Single target? AoE? PvE? Close quarters? Large scale RvR? It ends up varying all over the place.

That has nothing to do with Bright Wizards and everything to do with the two Archmages with 30k+ healing each. Give any DPS class pocket healers and they will rape.
So I went to Target and picked up one of the kick ass little boxes of love for $.99 that contains early access, some in game swag, and open beta access. Two codes, the early access/swag one worked just fine on my account page, but the beta code is invalid apparently. I tried the code on my account page, the beta sign-up page, I tried upper-case, lower-case, o's AND 0's, dashes and no dashes...what the fuck am I not getting right?

Also, I don't always have pocket healers. But my ratios are consistent. Those two archmages were just pugs who healed everyone. A pocket runepriest is awesome though.

You guys are totally discounting the hard working Warrior Priest. We heal lots!
Every scenario I see my fellow WP's playing it safe behind the front line, occasionally meleeing something just beyond the front. Then I see DoK's come charging straight at me and they die every time.

I've only been in since early this morning but from what I've seen, we have no shortage of healing. Go figure, you make some fun healing classes and people want to play them.
While I'm loving my Warrior Priest lots, I kind of envy the Black Orcs and Chosen with their big armor and choppy things. I should try an Ironbreaker or Swordmaster but they don't really interest me. I wish they didn't pull Knight of the Blazing Sun.
I understand the scenarios are based on the pairings (Dwarf vs Greenskin), but is there more then 3? I've only gotten to Rank 10 and have been doing the same scenarios over and over again. And if there are more scenarios can you go back and do them when you are more powerful? Like a 1-11 bracket 12 - 22 type thing?
So got a chance to formulate my first impression of the game.
After playing for a few minutes, I do see there is a lot of potential. Sadly though, one of the things that kills it for me is that somehow my hardware isn't cut out for this game. Running 2 gigs of ram on a dual core AMD processor with an NVIDIA 8950 GX2 card on a 24" monitor. The graphics looks like absolute shit and are still somehow laggy. I would really hate to see it running with crisper settings.
Comparatively, I run WoW at max settings on my comp and it runs very very smooth with very clean graphics. I honestly felt like I was stepping back in time when I logged into WAR, the graphics just seemed real horrid.
Of course I have heard these are the locked settings that the Beta testers are forced to use, but if it's already running bad, I'm wondering how much worse it will get with the settings turned up. This was also when I was running around the beginning areas solo, I haven't even seen what happens in mass pvp situations but i'm sure it isn't pretty.
Other than that, I see a metric fuckton of similarities with WoW which isn't a bad thing at all. Within 5 minutes of logging in I was able to keybind my keys exactly how I had them in WoW so I felt right at home.
Another thing I noticed, (but this was after only playing the game on my lunch break for about 15 minutes), was that it was very hard to tell if you had activated a special spell or not. I found myself constantly having to look at the bar to see if it was on cooldown because audibly I couldn't tell if I had succesfully gotten that last skill off. Now this probably isn't a problem for spellcasters, but with my chaos chosen I honestly had a hard time visually registering my regular attacks from my special.
Oh, also, I tried out DoK, and while it seemed like an insanely fun class, I couldn't stand the horribly feminine emo look of them, and I quickly aborted it for a Chosen.
Thing is there are so many scenarios that you can't have just 1 list of highest damage. Single target? AoE? PvE? Close quarters? Large scale RvR? It ends up varying all over the place.
Oh, the list was for RvR. From my understanding, that's the main part of this game.

Thanks....
There are scenarios for each tier (tiers being sets of levels, specifically 1-11, 11-21, 21-31, 31-40). There's one scenario per pairing per tier until tier four, in which case there are a total of six scenarios for each pairing (though what ones are open to play depends on who is controlling what zone at the time).
Edit: Cut that down to four for pairing at tier four, forgot that two are for the capital cities which are not in for HEvDE and GvD.

For the tier 4 scenarios, which one is available depends on which zone is being contested in that pairing. In EvC, if Praag is contested, the scenario is Battle of Praag. If Praag is controlled by Destruction and the campaign moves to Reikland, the scenario is Reikland Hills.

Sorceress/Bright Wizard
Witch Elf/Witch Hunter
Marauder/White Lion
Shadow Warrior
Engineer
Squig Herder
Magus
DoK/Warrior Priest
Zealot/Rune Priest
Shaman/Archmage
Tanks
is this true?
Most people are still new to the game and haven't learned to deal yet. Use terrain to block line of sight. Elemental resist. Initiative to reduce your chance to be crit. Willpower to increase your chance to Disrupt. Tanks actually equipping shields and using Hold the Line (+15% disrupt to those behind them, stacks from 3 tanks up to +45%) instead of playing loldps with a 2h.

Generally, except Magus should be a bit higher and Shaman/Archmage and Tanks should be ahead of Zealot/Rune Priest.
And that's really basic. Masteries, tactics, and gear can change things substantially.
