Retire le nom, même si le joueur a commis une infraction, on ne balance pas ici comme ça publiquement. On est plus en 39-45 Vichy c'est fini mec.
Want to compare the entire toolkit?
Puncturing Sweep > Swallow Soul and Concealed Weapon
Crescent Sweep > Soul Harvest
Toppling Charge > Lotus Fan
Radiant Oppression > Impale
Nova > Consuming Darkness (which I have literally never seen used)
Are you another non-Templar? It really doesn't help having non-Templars enter this conversation. Rather, you should make a forum post about NBs and try to get buffs for your character choice. But since you want to compare apples and oranges.
Punc Sweep is a channel, which puts a snare on the Templar. We also must be within melee range to get any benefit of heals. Swallow soul is instant and allows you to keep your distance. Concealed Weapon is also instant and gives you mega-speed in stealth. A Templar cannot stealth. They have no mobility in their toolkit.
Toppling charge is a wonderful skill. But you also have a Stun and Off-balance with Concealed Weapon. You know, the skill that gives you mega-speed? Lotus Fan is aoe and also causes all enemies to take 8% more damage. You would be better off comparing Lotus Fan to Explosive charge. They are more similar. But even Explosive charge doesn't cause enemies to take 8% more damage.
Radiant Oppression is a channel. Puts a snare on the caster. It isn't instant like Impale. Radiant also doesn't tick as soon as it hits. It should, but it doesn't. It's delayed. So we are often not able to deal the damage we need before the enemy gets out of execute range. It isn't dodgeable which some might say makes it better than Impale. But again, it takes time to start dealing dmg. So I've heard others say that Impale might be better. At least Impale allows you to be mobile.
Why compare Nova and Consuming Darkness? Are they what you would compare? Why not compare it with Soul Tether? That might be a better comparison. Is that because of the Major Protection? I'm not saying that Consuming Darkness is a good skill. But why compare to a Templar's toolkit? Why not create a forum post trying to improve the NBs toolkit?
Please go back and look at my initial post (or read it below), then read the thread. My only assertion was that Magblade is not a "Ferrari" in PVP, and as far as I was concerned that was the end of it. However other people jumped in, and as you'll see, any comparison of apples & oranges was introduced into the conversation by them — I was simply responding to those [one-sided and inaccurate] comparisons.
If you want to say templar needs a buff, fine. In fact, I agree. However saying it is bottom tier in every regard ignores reality, so if you intend to do that, be prepared to be called out on it. Magblade and Magcro are both in worse positions as it pertains to PVP, and have been for quite a while. That is not a particularly controversial statement to most people.Unless I'm mistaken, it seems like you are talking about PVE here. If that's the case, then I think you're comparing apples & oranges because I'm fairly certain that @Mayrael is focused on PVP. While your post may be correct with regards to PVE, nearly everything in it is inapplicable (or even wrong) in PVP.
For all I know magblade may indeed be a Ferrari in PVE, but they're a 1983 Dodge Omni in PVP.
But would you agree that magblades are the Ferrari of damage dealers?
