My blademaster turned 50 at just about the time that New Frontiers came out so I can't compare pre- and post-NF experiences. However, I like NF, especially when I'm on with my bard and have to make split second decisions on mezzes, confuses and resurrection strategies. She is a RP sponge.
As you know, the blademaster, as a tank, is naturally gimped in RvR but the significant emphasis on siege warfare in NF gives her more range and, at times, helps her turn the tide of a battle. My bard is a LGM crafter who can make siege stuff quickly and I've developed another "siege bard" to carry it to battle. My 37 warden just grouped last night with four animists defending a tower in Molvik, and even though they've been nerfed, the shrooms gobbled up the Alb invaders. The Albs didn't get the better of us until my warden tried to do a rez and got jumped by two infs outside of the Lord's room. Our group went down without a healer, the Albs planned the strategy pretty well.
So in other words, I'm having fun in NF.
I'm looking forward to the introduction of Catacombs (I hope the revamps of classes help to pretty up my homely but ultra-strong Firby) and especially to its "private dungeon sessions."
LOL, if you read this without knowing DAOC I know it must look kinky.
