In the natural balance, HA was confronted by lancers. Whiners whined, and lancers get nerfed. Whiners whined, HA get nerfed. Yet, whiners are whining and HA is still getting nerfed unreasonably. I support Torben in this means. If you have never ever nerfed lancers, HA's would never be nerfed this way, and all the walking whiners would be much safer.
I still don't know why devs are still messing up with this multi-class game, while they have their own only melee game. Why wouldn't all the walking whiners go play that game instead if they are so upset by being chased by cav, or being shot by arrows, or both ...
