here is what i am saying,retail is not unbalanced between classes because every class has it's advantages/disadvantages skills and every class has it's role in the game,but class power depends on equip/gear/buffs/resist etc.etc.If you have the correct boost(augs/items/talism/gears/all stuff etc.) to your char you are more powered.So how do you expect someone to make balance in such server,since balance is something that depends on skills/buffs/class/gear/equip/armor/weapon stats/SA/ etc. vs opponents skills/buffs/class/gear/equip/armor/weapon stats/SA/ etc. You have to edit these things in order to make a "balanced" gameplay,and this is something most of todays admins cannot do,because they dont even know how retail game works.As for players,no matter how have a server accomplished a good balance,they will always cry and complain for something when their char dies,at pvp or at oly,because they think they know the game,while they know shit about it,not even the full skill list of their class.
