As far as I can tell that's not true. There is one post by you in another recent thread (that I had originally missed and looked for after your response to this thread). This has very little to do...

To my knowledge, there has been zero communication whatsoever from anyone at SSG regarding all of the botched recent updates that were designed to bring the burglar back into the same realm of...

Fundamentally, LOTRO's immediate skill system allowing for animation cuts has always been completely wacky to me. It has always fit with my self-created schema that LOTRO developers will generally...

An interesting article that popped up while I was perusing addiction "literature" while suffering from writer's block at work. Some of you know that I am a psychologist specializing in addiction...

I haven't played in a year, so the following may be completely off-base for any stuff released with the newest instance cluster. However, I think it's been clear in many people's eyes for many years...

Hit rank 15 a little over a year ago, after hitting rank 12 back in 2011. Wanted to throw this out there for memory sake before I delete all my old screens/videos.

Congrats, Bludgashh! Big E memories and all the years fighting BAOS will last forever.

This is splitting hairs as CDG is ridiculous regardless, but at my 115 mastery levels, aim CDG from stealth will rarely approach those levels. Though I bet your mastery as a poorly geared 105 is...

Burgs are undoubtedly OP in the moors, but based on your posts I'm assuming your burg isn't 115. These scenarios simply don't exist if the burg is at 115 and is not abusing dev/all in swappies...

For the easier bosses I agree, but when things got tough for kins on the tougher bosses (e.g., unbroken one), the burg was often the first to get dropped in favor of more group-friendly ranged dps...

Not even worth debating the rest after reading the first in your list. This all started debating the usefulness of the burg in instances/raids. My argument was (and still is) that burgs are fairly...

You can swap out of combat sure, but I don't, and don't plan to. Withholding that auto dev is a step in the right direction toward balance. Nobody can disagree with that. All in swapping is the same....

Unfortunately there aren't a whole lot of meaningful boss fights that don't involve a plethora of adds where AoE is obviously the smarter choice.

I agree with you on the issue. Creeps need more customization opportunities for sure. This is one of the main reasons I never spend much time on one myself. I suppose freep customization will change...

I appreciate the attempt to engage SSG in PvP talks, but I can't help but be severely underwhelmed with the interviewer in this one. It took him upwards of 1-2 full minutes to get out a question, and...

While imbalances do exist, warg is undoubtedly in the absolute best spot among creeps to deal with current imbalances. Warg dps is very high, not tied to much RNG, and benefits from stealth/escape...

Also increasing on Arkenstone after an unexpectedly smooth Mordor experience up until somewhat recently.

I am not so much stating things are balanced overall as I am staying they aren't so far out of whack to deserve the amount of crying we've seen on these forums the past weeks. We've acknowledged ad...

Not single target, but total output, which is all that matters when it comes time to fill a group. I never once stated single target damage. There are very few fights where champ AoE damage combined...

You basically proved my point correct in your own post. There may be some who can occasionally pull big numbers, but not consistently, and not on average compared to those other classes. A few doing...

Before Mordor, given equal skill, a dps burg (red) wouldn't touch the dps of a hunter, rk, or champ, and was somewhat comparable to warden dps if the warden didn't have many targets to bleed out....

"...and ranged attackers." Reading is tough.

Read carefully. I said losing PvE dps is not ideal, not that our dps overall is not ideal. The burg is and has been in a very tenuous spot in the PvE world...often propped up by broken mechanics. I'm...

SSG has taken steps (albeit small) to fix the burg situation at least. We no longer have the auto dev set, which changes most of how the class is played in the moors. This is also a significant hit...

To be fair, two wargs can do the exact same thing to freeps right now. 2 of anything most likely can as everyone is dying too fast.

In my experiences out there since reaching 115, it's much more...
