A thane is a caster/melee hybrid. They are granted the ability to spec in midgard melee weapons, shield, and parry. Additionally, the class has long range, and very fast casting direct damage and buff spells. When correctly applied, a thane is a solid class in a PvE environment, however, low hit points/weapon skill and very low spell damage will greatly hinder a thane in RvR. Recent additions to the stormcalling line, such as bolt ranged magic spells and Doomhammer have improved a thane's standing somewhat. A thane is very difficult to spellcraft and purchase RA skills for, due to it's dual nature, but the RA choices it has are above average. A high realm rank thane can be a very powerful force in a siege, but it's toolset is poorly suited for eight man RvR
