Why did they do this? I'm serious.....people have been begging for Beastmaster for months and months, and THIS is the best they can do? Seriously, I think I'm selling it. I don't know what the Feral armor looks like, but the Guardian Beastmaster armor looks stupid. The Herdmasters look more like Beastmasters than this armor does.
Think about it: the point of this game is BATTLING MONSTERS (i.e. Beasts), and with this class, it kinda doesn't even matter, because the defenses and abilities are...meh...you know?

Cool, but sort of useless. I have no Cha, making it pretty useless...

I don't think it matters if you have CHA or not, really.

You = Do not know the power. You can duplicate a monster's attack. You can have 2 guests attack. 30% more damage for pets and guests.
You just don't know the true power.

This is a DEFENSIVE class.
But with 200 CHA a Golden Goblet, this armor, Nerfkitten(90), and the level 9 skill you can hit 300+ without even attacking.
Not many people know this, but each of the guests is 2 hits each at high enough CHA. Thats four hits from guests alone, add a Nerfkitten into the mix and you've got 7 strong hits. That alone is power, but with the +30% from the armor it becomes insane. If you use UM on that turn, its 13 high-damage hits.
Cast DarkSplatter or FEA (since mage is a popular secondary in BM) you have 17 hits that each get stat bounuses!!!
With the Right stats (240 CHA) this is by far the strongest class.

Hmmm... the highest CHA you can get is 210, not even close to 240.

Golden Goblet +40 to CHA
Hell, Even at 200 CHA this class is insanley powerful.
Another big boost to beastmasters.......

OK....so, if you want Beastmaster to be a good armor, you have to max out your CHA, making every other armor in the game useless. Pfft....selling it soon, unless changes are made to make it more versatile. As it is, if you're high enough level to have 200 CHA, then you really don't need pets and guests that much.

The Beastmaster Build centers around keeping yourself alive whilst your pets attack.
A defensive armor, and heal wounds are the beastmasters main favorites.
A typical Beastmaster has 200 end/dex/cha so they can stay alive long enough for their pets to do thier crazy hits. (Sometimes DEX is substitued for INT or split between the two)
The KoO tends to favor beastmasters.
And the comment about all other armors being useless, not at all. Just use a beastmaster like you would a mage, put on a defensive armor and attack with magic weapons and spells.
Beastmaster is becoming a very strong build.
I'm not about to change my stats over one class though. I like being able to use all the weapons.
