[QUOTE="Asisreo, post: 8051734, member: 7019027"] This candid structure is exactly what's needed. If skilled players tend to one class while casual players go with another, that's another factor that can actually be recorded in, probably via a questionnaire People call it "moving the goalpost" and arguing "in bad faith" but those are basically buzzwords. The fact that someone can think of a new parameter worth considering, even when the correlation seems weak, means that it wasn't a complete analysis and should be understood well. If someone says "monks damage is good" and it's proven that it isn't, saying "well their survivability is good" does not mean they moved the goalpost because there is no goalpost. There is no winning or losing, it's about having a complete analysis of a monk, in this instance. Also, you can't prove whether something is good or not. You can prove that they are better or worse in relation to something else, but something being good or bad is an opinion. Being the lowest damage doesn't prove it's bad. [/QUOTE]
