Back when they updated the blog with a listing of what the area version of the DP magic did it was stuff like - makes you dizzy - makes you untargetable - makes you unable to target - dispel your held charge and a few others but that last one. That means a DP should be able to hold on to a charge and when I get close cancel your charged up fire but it NEVER in my knowledge did that and that was insanely frustrating to me, because I would want to mix it up and get in the battle but as a DP if you get close enough to hit someone with you area spell and then STILL get to burn/freeze you that's game over. You get all the trophies? I really wanted to because I love the game but that Gladiate trophy is insane. I'm gonna have better luck the day I decided to spend 20 hours getting the DLC trophies.. those are at least doable. What’s funny is that I’m never sure if the DP was everything they said he was.

I must say that the ranger's one hit kill trick annoyed me quite a bit, though. anyway, yes, the door busting stuff was game breaking, as you say. also, game balance was dramatically altered simply by adding <em>three</em> new classes with six hit points. totally stupid. plus the maps obviously weren't designed to support additional classes, so the weird magic hat machine feels like a hack that's out of place in my castle, leaving aside the strange three-in-one delivery method for the new classes. frustrating -- I used to love that game. what are your favorite maps? I love the big maps like rocky road and new pork. also the classic forested ones like great gorge and black forest. yeah, good times — and the dark priest had the killer long and powerful vampiric drain.

You're somewhat right the new classes do make some aspects of the game obsolete. On certain maps once you get giants and pirates doors aren't even worth the trouble. the old days were something else weren’t they when the Ranger wasn’t nerfed and the Ice Mage was a beast.
