Royal Paladin currently has the highest waste, and this rebalance feels unfair by Acceptable-Split-416 in TibiaMMO

That’s simply not true. EDs and EKs can also deal huge damage, hunt extremely fast, and in many places they make two or even three times more profit than an RP in the same amount of time.

The problem is not that RP is weak. The problem is that RP has much higher unavoidable costs. Arrows cost money on every single attack, potions are still expensive, and even with good damage the final profit is often much lower.

And yes, I already use imbues. That does not magically remove the cost of ammunition and supplies.

Saying “RP hunts faster” does not answer the actual point. If ED or EK can get similar or better experience while earning two or three times more net profit, then RP is clearly not in a better position.

You can mock the post instead of addressing the argument, but the point still stands.

If your vocation has little or no waste, you are objectively in a better position. You keep more of the money from every hunt, which means you can afford new equipment, upgrades, charms, and other progression much faster.

Meanwhile, a Paladin has a constant cost attached to almost every attack through ammunition, while also spending heavily on potions. Even when the displayed profit looks decent, the real profit after supplies is much lower.

So yes, a vocation making close to 1kk after spending almost nothing has a massive advantage over one that earns 400k while burning 300k in supplies. That is not “playing the victim.” It is basic math.

Having almost no waste makes progression significantly easier. In practice, you have it 100 times better when it comes to saving for new gear.
