warrior, mage, and rogue are the three types that the game works with. it's even color coded. what needs to be improved are the general mage skill damage scalings so I don't have have to go ailments to do damage. the comparable melee skills need the buffed to match bleeding edge (once that is done reworking the mage skills will be done with a better sense of balance). Force shield needs to utilize at least part of resistances for mage builds to work. passive dodge needs to replace move spred on rogue gear so gear matches with the tree. The stats should also supply defensive stats again like in beta (though passive dodge supply should be toned down), not just toughness.

but mages dont need aliments to do 187 o.O also there are many more builds that can do 187 besides gunslinger,mage and bleeding egde.

Not in 2-4 man group. They dont give damage enough. And not at the same time productivity. Much slower to complete.

yep actually around 5 builds, but all with almost the same passives, non-class system supposed to give infinite options, but in fact maybe class system was a better option. Now its to late, and long way to go to fix and balance everything.

what ever makes you happy, i agree more stuff should work better but neither my mage nor my Phantomblader have problems contributing enough dmg. Solo 187 untainted take 3-5 min and iam not even using Trial Belt just because it gives you fake dps. Group with 3 friends also all stays same smooth. If you goal is to make every build just do 187 untainted 4 man in 1 min you are a hella strange fella and mega boring.
