What class do you have the hardest time playing against?

Bakven

This isn't a nerf anything thread, this is just a post about with your playstyle or build, what class do you have difficulty fighting against and why?

For me, I'm a magblade, the hardest class is the mDK. The reason is they almost all have flappy wings (Dragon Fire Scales) and almost all of my dps is ranged so I end up hurting myself. With the stamina DKs I can usually time it and avoid killing myself, but with mDKs they keep it up all the time. I've one shotted myself with a 30k assassins will before

That's not a class, that's a gear set. Try again

One on one?
Sorc - Stam DKs, but really any stam toon that can get up all in my grill and Crit Rush more than I can streak while having enough stam to CC break endlessly.
Mag DK - Mag Templars. They can easily purge all my damage or just out heal it.

A good magicka DK is the hardest class to fight when you're a Stamina build.

Templars atm. They can have great defense and dps. Dks can get good or better defense but their offense is usually limited to close combat. RD, flare and a gap closer make a temp deadly at any range.

I'm a magDK. I have the most trouble against fear spamming nightblades. Without the fear, they aren't too much of a threat, but having to keep breaking the fear drains all of my stamina to the point where I'm just permanently stuck with my head down. Magplars I can't kill if they aren't stupid, but they can't kill me on their own either.

Im deeply honest here (as StamSorc): MagSorc is the only setup I have problems against this patch. Not the 99%, but the 1% is damn tough to fight. Prolly because my entire cp setup is more focused on countering physical dmg, tho.

Magicka dk, a nightblade's worst nightmare.

MagSorc , i wait a 1459 th nerf and after i back on my Nbmagicka

Tanky Templars and DKs for me (a tanky DK myself).

1v1 fights have gone on for >3mins with both of us on near full health. Kinda like trying to break into a vault by hitting it with a wet noodle.

As a stam nb i dont really enjoy fighting other stam nbs

AverageJo3Gam3r

I'm really, really tired of 8-9k fear-incap strikes.

I have the hardest time with NB. They are always invisible. I feel like I have to spec skills specifically to deal with NB's and then I do not have the skills to deal with any other class.

I run a Stan sorc so if I can keep them inside hurricane I can either kill them or make them retreat. Keeping them from teleporting away and going invis seems to be difficult for me. I assume just more time spent in PVP will provide a solution to the issue.

Wanted to add that fear is very annoying but if I can time a imovable pot correctly it can provide the advantage I need. The timing part however has been difficult to master.

Lately I play stamdk. Worst opponents are stamblade and magsorc.

So much this...I can appreciate the handicaps faced by magDKs, but in a group they're brutal. It's like my feet are permanently nailed to the ground.

On my stamblade I have problems with Stamplar their heals are just so strong and can just purge everything I throw out.

On my stamplar I can usually fight to a stand still with a Stam Dk.Magplars are my biggest trouble because I can't burst then down fast enough while CC at times.

With 20k resist and just over 1000 crit resist my death recap was:

Biting jabs - 8k
Biting jabs - 6k
Biting jabs - 6k
Biting jabs - 6k
Javelin - 2k

What am I suppose to do against that?

Mgk Dk, I've accidentally 1 shot myself before

FriedEggSandwich

As a sorc, magicka dk (obvs) but also templars and other magicka sorcs running more dmg/penetration than me. Stam builds generally don't worry me too much, they tend to be quite squishy.

Depends, what class were you playing?

Omgwtfbbq321

As a Mgaicka sorc (Duel-wield), any stam toon can be almost impossible to hit(excluding using curse) but the old DK flappywings problem is still the worst. Magicka or a well-rounded stam is almost impossible to beat with heavy resto and cruse/comet.

You can wear heavy armor and survive ten seconds longer (which will lead to even more QQ to nerf heavy armor).

Sarcasm aside: skilled players knowing how to sustain resources on templars, are indeed difficult to fight. Huge damage, big heals, ability to cheaply cleanse multiple DOTs using just one skill, are their strengths. Currently, they are up there with stamina sorcs as the two strongest classes IMHO.

I play on every class. In my opinion, templars and stamsorcs are definitely easier to play, survive and get kills with.

Laughing at all the people complaining about mDK in this thread. You have a hard time with them because you can't burst down in 3 seconds? That it turns into an actual fight? Tell me...at any point during that fight did the mDK actually threaten you?

Waffennacht

@MalakithAlamahdi I'm a "stamsorc" that was with heavy armor too. As I'm fairly new to stam, I welcome any and all advice

Yes it did cause my attacks were limited to shooting star, concealed weapon, and agony

ikr. They're all sad because they can't win even if they don't lose, whereas most of the time I'm happy to achieve a tie on my mDK.

On my magsorc I have troubles with stam heavy armored DKs as I cant burst them down before they make me run out of stamina, rest is quite easy/balanced.

On my magplar - stamblades, as they freakin shuffle/roll/cloak/vigor all the time, they are harder to kill than a tank as dodge/miss > block/ressistances.

Zergs are the hardest for me. Lol
