Dear visitors on IG:BG,

since there have been discussions on "ranger spam" for ages, and the issue came up again recently, we decided to test whether restricting the ranger class would improve the game experience on our server.

The test will run for one week, until Wednesday 6/2/13
After that the settings will be set to default in any case
Rangers will be restricted to a maximum of 10 per team.

What we are aiming for is not a perfect balance of classes and this test doesn't portray any official standpoint towards the "archerspam" or "archers are OP" debates. But, since with very high numbers of players, many seem to chose the ranger class and huge groups of rangers seem to be very effective against uncoordinated teams and are not much fun to play against for most people, we want to cut the very extreme archer spam on a full server. The restrictions will therefore only be noticeable if there are more than 20 people on Battlegrounds.


After the test week, we want to evaluate the feedback and we will then decide, if restricted rangers become a permanent setting on the server.

We therefore would appreciate if you post your thoughts in this thread or in the respective thread on our forum.

Having the people who run the server takes things slightly less seriously all the time would help. Having 5 IG's in a ruin with crossbows is hardly going to make anyone else do much other than join them or die. Other such measures of delaying a round can be listed, but really take a note from Muricah, charge in balls first and get a good melee going, rather than trying to scrim vs. random pubs.
 
It's hard for me to say such a thing but ... i agree with Mitchell ...
10 archers max per team means nothing, a percentage of the team would be far more interesting.
why not something like 50% of the team max ?  ( imo it is not enough but it may be a good start )

But anyway, that's already a good new !

can't you make it a percentage, just been playing with about 15 on each side, 10 archers... seems the same archer spam you guys are on about.
To my knowledge, percentage is not possible with the current ENL admin tools.
