Topic: why do people hate fire mages?

i personally love fire mage and i usually get around 110% or more effort and i work hard to help my team.

but there are these *cough* people (not going to say who) that will trash talk directly to the fire mages. and i can not go through a day without someone getting all over your case.

for "running away" from a melee class or "not being in the front lines with everyone else"

now im going to assume EVERYONE knows what a mage can do in distance and melee.
if not, we can only assist the team by atacking as a group or from a distance. we CAN'T do a 1v1 against a melee with out dodging or "running" in their words.

so i ask, why do they get so mad at fire mages that even if you have high effort the will kick you out or rage all over you?

It's not that people hate fire mages, it's just that most of us can't use it effectively. Like myself, I just prefer to melee, and I like to me able to dash/run.

I love a good mage challenge though.

Same reason why people hate snipers in FPS.

They don't like how they can't hit you without having to chase after you, and in LS, you can double jump and teleport.

Woah, Woah, Woah. Fire mages CAN win against melee in 1 vs 1 first off.
They don't all have to run away like panzies. Its just some prefer to get close and personal with fire mage or stay back at a distance and dish out meteor into people.
Reason I see people not being fire mages is because: Melee is usually fun most of the time and are very popular, Ranged is just super goood support, Fire mages only have 2 attack skills with a questionable fireproof shield and a magic hat that teleports which can be used as a good battling tool.
I am the unnoticeable person of Lost Saga.

Jacking the teleportation hat from Fire Mages is great for melee classes.

Lol. With Fire Mage just edge guard with the Dash Attack. Seems to work well for me when I'm defending my sniping post.

people hate fire mages cause their hard to uilize effectively, but people who can use them effectively make things difficult for their opponents.

the only thing i wish was different was the stupid fire resistance cape...its pointless unless your against another mage, and even then you both just end up using it over and over, creating stale gameplay

and people who complain about running fire mages are fools. its a magic class and it has a 2 hit combo. The original purpose of the fire mage was to snipe with its main magic attack (meteor)
also...i know that i only run away to set up good position for myself or if im being pursued by more than one person.

plus everyone has their own style so really there should be no conflict

thanks, RC

To be honest people only hate the mages that aim and attack, usually mages are meant to do that in most games but, I hate doing that by the way, so i just melee :P Not all the time mages can win in melee battle,

for one thing a mage's weakness is boxer spam, at least for me and something zerkers  too.

i didn't say they can't win a 1v1, but they have to move around like crazy and play mind games on them to win. (thats what i do atleast)

yeah the fire resistance cape is pointless, but it can raise your effort depending on how many people are effected and how much effort you already have.

but yeah i agree with you fully yoisric

I've been using fire mage nonstop since cbt.  I go melee with my fire mage to pick off the players with low health.  Teleporting is great for catching runners and I've managed to confuse various people in an upclose fight.
