The atrocity now known as pvp

I got to say Im extermely disappointed in pvp
it's EXTREMELY unbalanced
people were like Mages are good there and there really not
F/P suck there all our DoT skill hits 1 person and have a CD
We have no fast effective skills and our low hp gets us killed in a few hits (all mages)
The only good classes seem to be warriors because they just never die
it's ignorant that they can spam a fast high hitting skill when mages get boned because all our good skills have CD
I had my hopes up for pvp to be good for mages but again we get the crap end discriminated by a bunch of noobs
I really appreciate the effort you make to not suck as a company

From what I've encountered, Mechanic is quite annoying, due to multiple gun attack, but I feel they're less likely a threat on 120+
Battle Mage was hell, they're hitting like they have no cooldown at all. Drk is quite a tanker with decent damage, but Marauder with Super Trans is more evil. Thief class are just evil. Wild Hunter run too much, and Bowman, indeed.....

Arans, or at least my aran, used its basic attack once every ten seconds. >_>

Yay lag

really warriors have an advantage? arans cant even use overswing etc properly because for some reason nexon has delayed it and were stuck with using rolling spin which isnt excatly ideal

[quote=some1crazy]Hm, in a recent match, this mech would always setup in the very edges of the map so that siege mode would coincide with when around 2-3 people were around him. The rest of the time, he would just run around doing decent damage to everyone.

Eventually, the ffa just descended into 'as soon as you see the mech target him unless someone else is attacking you' LOL.[/quote]

There's also the trick where people stand on top of you... There's also Flash Jump and Teleport... Tons of ways to evade Siege... What I'm trying to get at is, Mechanics are NOT OP, at all... For power, we sacrifice movement...

[quote=yorkies88888]Well that power comes at a price you see... When we use that, we cannot move, so I get ganged by these mobs of people and eventually die fairly quickly... Most of the time, my Siege damage disperses among six players because they all move around and such to avoid getting hit... So therefore, it would come in handy if I had a MOB ATTACK... Oh wait, it has a thirty second cooldown...[/quote]

Edit: I think it helped that it was one of the smaller maps too.

[quote=some1crazy]Siege mode kills me in about 2-3 seconds of continuous fire on my sair.
Wait a second...

OT: I'd definitely say that some classes are more noticeably powerful, but then again, I think it more depends on the people playing the class. I've seen pretty much all types of classes win PVP.[/quote]

(imo) It's about class control, if you know then strengths and weaknesses of the class you're playing, and know how to deal with both of them equally. then you will be successful in PvP

[quote=Raiden]Not sure if it's right just to base it on a level 200 Mech, but that's about the only one I've seen. Don't know much about them either.

So uh.... that laser beam move is pretty good...that, with that cannon shooter. You guys have 100% stance (right?) and just holding down the attack button for the tank (seige?) mode is pretty good for the warriors, or any unalert person. The KB on that thing...[/quote]

Mmmm, well our Laser Blast has like a cooldown of what feels like thirty seconds... When I go up against warriors, I can barely take 50% of their HP before dying, but that's just my experience... I have KB? It doesn't feel like I have KB to be honest... o.o

[quote=ToFurkie]If you die fast AS A MAGE that is kind of sad, Mages are fine, WARRIORS are gipped. The only class I would see as OP is the mech class.[/quote]

It is pretty much balanced. I think the only class that gets shafted are bowmen :o

Sure, warriors have high hp.

But you guys just teleport around them all day.

HA! You think you have low HP? Please say that to Night Lords, Bow Masters, and Mechanics... At least you get a DoT... My DoT was taken from me and my mob attack has like a thirty second cooldown... Not to mention my lack of mobility... You have your precious Teleport...
