I want the Slayer to be able to take out 5 Black Orks at time, and only lose 25% health. I want him to be able to block all magical attacks. Anything less I will probably stop play if this does not happen.
(I am being sarcastic. I want to play Warhammer online the way Mythic intended. Not what I think it should be.)

funny funny
in all seriiousness id like to see the slayer a little closer to lore... not POWN EM ALL OPED
BUT
in the books slayers are vunarable to rdps and great at melle... why not make then a good against tanks other mdps and all melle and have a weakness against rdps...
be another cool difference of a slayer.. as it stands this class is just another mdps ( with a cool mechanic/look ) that will try to get to the back line and die trying or kill casters easy

I'd love to see them as a MDPS that can punch a hole through tanks and perhaps not be another MDPS that a DoK or WP can just laugh at 1on1.
I'd really love both to have a tactic (similar to BG's) or an ability that lets them ignore detaunts. It would seem to make sense to me.

Ahh a perfect opportunity to rant..
Look at marauders.... if you wana put out good numbers, be a beast etc... you should go monstro. And that would be the AOE spec.
I imagine slayers will have some what the same as all classes specs (sigle target, DoT, and AOE). Well what i DONT want to see in the slayer is to have the AOE spec line be the best and most viable. I wana be the guy who selects his targets carefully and crushes them 1 by one, not mindlessly aoeing a bunch of grouped up people.

Im preparing myself to see a lot of the mechanics of a Marauder but with a slight twist. It will be great, because Marauders are beasts.

I hope they will have some extra immunity to all form of cc. This fits beserker style carreers imo.

I agree that th slayer should be like the Marauder. I would like to see them on the front line with the tanks. I hope they will be more 1 on 1 style combat. I do not a mechanic like combustion. If it based in two thing the amount enemies around in about 10 ft. and the amount of hits you receive. If you have 3 or more people attacking you. You will probably lose.

The way I see it, combustion will be really hard on MDPS since you are much more vulnerable in the thick of fray, it works for Sorcs and Wizards because they of course, attack at range and are usually close to healers.

If you allow you rage to reach and go over the percentage where you start taking in negative effects while you are in a huge zerg, then you deserve to be gibbed.
If you are in a small scale fight or situation where you're not being targeted you can go all out with rage to pump damage. But if you are taking some, then obviously it's better to burn some rage so not to sacrifice any defense. The mechanic seems very good. Simple enough, but still clever enough.

When I play a Slayer I want to be like V in V for Vendetta and kill 10~ armed soldiers (Black Orcs) without dying and then strangle the head boss (the shaman) and be able to walk away.
Sound balanced right?

I want them to throw an axe once into a zone and /level based on everything that died in it. All loot is converted to cash. The ability starts at level 1 and is called "Scud missle throw" ;):p:rolleyes:

You forget that your only wish is to die in combat... so Blork will kick your (_;_).:D
