why?

So you say. But what evidence do you provide? Beastlord healing is entirely too poor to outweigh a Paladin's DPS with a good 2hander. It will take him a long time, but eventually you will run out of mana and he will have plenty left.

I cannot run out of mana healing myself.

Also there is another option to dueling tank classes, overwhelm them.  See there hp at 50% and burn, but if you fail well you may have just failed(died).

Why is it that SOE hates the bl class so much? i ama level 80 bl with a pet that is 76 and have friends witha mage at 70 whos pet hits for the same damage .ARE we  not the master of the pet class? ARE parchment spell has a base 10 minss at level 80 this is a joke . How about  all the hours of faction you put into katta to geta bp that is fire based  lol sso i get the sof drop bp with the same focus  fire based come on now.the nerfs on the pvp end of beastlorads is a joke if your a beastlord stay out of the arne it will only upset you worse Would love to see programer that does bl come and explain this to us

  I just found this post and am wondering if this is the same thunder formely of Fennin Ro, which would make sense giving the post.

Bst are the best pvp class in the game atm, if you know what to use and how to use it.  There is only 1 class with a reasonable track record of beating bst.  Anyone care to guess?

I don't duel so this has less importance to me than most, but everything I've read (last 3 months not including the last 2 patces i.e. Oct 7 path and the one before) That the top PvP class has been Bard for some time.  Granted they don't win quickly and actually you will probally have a lag spike/fall asleep before the fight ends but for all ends and purposes they simply wear down every class until they die.  After Bard it's been argued what class is best but the 3 Inphared posted (Pally, Monk, Zerker) seem to be up there with Rangers getting a nod once and awhile.  In almost every discussion Beasts our near the low end of PvP.  But because PvP isn't what EQ was desighned for I don't really see this as a problem that needs to be addressed.
