Yep, DKs can still tank whole groups of people and steam roll you while doing so.

TEMPLAR

Now I think it's great that ZOS doesn't look at this forum so much.

Every other class that isn't your personal favorite to play...

Would love to know how to be one of these overpowered Dragonknights everyone talks about, because I get rekt in PvP.

Sorcerers. Are great at everything and can bolt miles away whenever someone puts up even a remote amount of a challenge against them.

Welp I'm pretty sure it's how you play your class 8)
I've seen a lot of different classes steamroll a lot of people in PvP 8)

DK's were before the constant nerfs. By far Templars now.

This poll should probably be in the PvP forum since it is likely being skewed by the PvE'rs.

I'm honestly surprised at the lack of Nightblades. To each their own i suppose!

LOL wow this poll is way off as of now. I'd say it should be much closer to even.

They are all deadly, it depends on what your skill bar looks like. If you learn each class first-hand, you can set up any and all of them to prepare for any encounter if you utilize both bars, regardless of the enemy's class.

2H DK's are wicked strong atm. Back to back wrecking blow and GDB+rally is tight. Shield stacking sorcs are pretty hard to beat as well. They can just stack shields and never see their HP pool diminish if they do it right. The worst part about sorcs is the exploit some are using that ZoS apparently doesn't care about fixing. Attacks do no damage to their shields and they can practically live forever. [snip] is a great example. Dozens have reported him and nothing has been done. I am pretty sure no one at ZoS actually reads bug reports anymore.

Been fighting sorcs all day and doing 0 dps. Seems legit.

I, for one, think instant-cast damage shields are bulls***
Damage shields as an added effect to other skills or even just adding a cast time to a primary damage shield is totally fine.

That is a vampire mist exploit not shields ...

Standard, GDB, reflect everything...

Then again, Begezus Beams to the face still hit pretty hard.

@dafox187

Sorc = would like to be a mage
mage != fireball
destro staff = fireball

The one does not automatically mean the other.

It's usually not about the class so much as it is about the combo.

Dks tanking small grps and killing them 1 by 1 is just wrong...

So you are really bad at playing the class that the poll makes clear is the best in PvP, and you don't play a Sorc.

Right, understood...

That's an exploit with damage mitigation. [snip] and crew ([snip] is another) if you watch them closely they don't even cast damage shields. Why would you when you only take ~10% incoming damage without blocking? Somehow they've figured out how to get the vampire mist +75% damage mitigation (plus maybe undeath passive?) all the time. Something else is going on there too because i've noticed that they all hit like wet noodles, no burst at all.

lol thats funny, least eso can display all the enemies in a given area.
I remember "culling" being a huge issue in the game you mentioned. they even tried to deny it existed for almost 6 months, then claimed ok it exists we just cant fix it...3 months later supposedly fixed it lmao. idk forsure if it got fixed after a week of invisble mobs i moved on. plus their wanna be esport was a joke too. my thief was waaaay op. was pretty much thief and mez spam. soo much skill rofl. anyways you get the idea.

I choose nightblade for their stealth and ultilty , a good blade supporting his group with fear and high dps is brutal!
Dks i can atleast mitagate some damage and do some things, a good blade just burns me down unless i have back up

Stamblade is out of control.

Cant believe that people still complain about DKs. This must be bizarroworld.

Forestd16b14_ESO

SORCERER

Yea the info is wrong. When ESO first came out it was Sorc then few month became DK a year later now Templars are "the class" and maybe in a month or so NB will be. But as of right now Templars are "the class" cause of there shield stacking, insta full health and of course radient destruction and the nirnhoned bug. Give it time every one be screaming nerf to NB very soon.

scy22b14_ESO

SORCERER

Invalid evidence.

If sorcerers are the strongest PVP class, more people will be playing them. If the majority of people are playing sorcerers, their interests will be in protecting that overpowered status.

Therefor most people voting will in fact be sorcerers, whether they admit it or not, and will obviously vote for something else. In this case Dragon Knights.

Sorcerers are by a mile the most powerful class in PVP.

How the F are DKs at the top? They are at the bottom.

LOL. I play a NB and 41% think DK as of my reading. Does nobody actually play pvp?

Sorc - miles and miles ahead then the rest are pretty close.
