Why did all the good pvpers roll Sorcerer?

Diamond_10

Im curious why all the good pvpers all rolled the same class? Its like you cant touch these guys, they are great players, but why did they all roll the same class? And why is their health bar blue instead of red like the rest of us?

Thanks

all the good pvper's rolled a stam nb.

It's blue because: Shields.

Lots of shields.

Imagine the most shields you've ever seen...

Double it, and then times by 3.

Not that I'm knocking it you understand... I'm a Sorc too!

And then re-rolled magicka NB in IC!

The PvP players who love a challenge roll Sorc so that they are gimped versus OP Nightblades.

'cause ya can't escape the 60 men zergs with a temp or DK.

...Altho NB works too...

In truth all the "good players" that have likely been around since beta all have 4 vr14+ characters of every class.

Many on multiple factions to boot.

So it's easy to be whatever the fotm is when you already have one sitting on the character load screen.

They aren't good players. Someone that always reroll for the most op/broken classe/build of the moment, found on the internet, can't be called a good player.

lololol everyone knows that pvp is only meant for sorcs and nightblades, dragonknights just stand there looking silly and templars are there to annoy you with jabs or to be pocket healers.

They usually play NB, sorcs or have one of each. But mostly NB now with IC.

The game is Elder Nightsorcerer Online, since 1.6. Same with the forum.

In 1.5 and before, most "good" PvP'ers played DK. I guess "good" players aren't sentimental, they know when to re-roll to new fotm and how to master a new class quickly.

I'm glad i chose sorcerer from the start. I remember when i first bought this game, reading into the different classes and the main thread i read talked about how much sorcerers sucked and everyone in the comments agreeing. I wanted to play however i though would be most fun though so i ignored all those reviews and turned out i made the right choice lol

They did not. Seems like most people rerolled Nightblade, even more with this patch.
I only see Nightblades and Templars in IC. But in Cyrodiil, all I see is Dragonknights and Nightblades. Pretty weird.

Sorcerer lost what made them iconic, it's not that easy to play anymore. I think most people played Sorc last patch, because they could easily engage and run away again. This is no longer possible, Nightblade is best at doing this now.

I'm not sure if the OP meant to be tongue-in-cheek, but it made me laugh anyway.

First of all, that's a biased statement. I am good at PvP and my main is a Nightblade. I could do just as well with anything else though. The class doesn't make the skills to PvP, the skills alone make the PvPer.

Secondly, Sorcerers have Bolt Escape. 'nuff said.
