    Snipe. Bleeds. Healbots. (Not healing in general, one wannabe 1vXer will get defiled tae *** but a healbot can forgo all dmg to become a machine of pure Xv1 energy).

    Healbot is the most OP thing right now.

    Took 5 average guys you usually 1vX, add a heal bot and you can no longer kill them.

    The way healing allies work in this game is the problem. No targeting needed, just smash BoL and other heal and look people being twice tanker, the game make everything for you. It target the 2 lowest allies with absurd number.

    The more I play, the more I meet group of 60% healer, there is on 10 player group : 4 magplar Healbot, 1 sorcerer Healbot (lol) and 1 magblade healbot then you have 2 DK + a stamden with 30k HP and a sniping nooblade (+ other sniping dk, Templar, NB and sorc hwo are 40m away in stealth)

    People are running 1 healbot for 1 DPS (usually a super tank one), and it's killing the game. If these healbot was on a damage set up, they would die and there zergling friends too.

    Special mention to most magicka build not having access to defile.

    stole a snipe build from someone, you can *** 1 bang (snipe, ambush, incap, killersblade) people with 35k hp in heavy... with a dedicated build snipe is really damn scary.
    Highest snipe I hit so far in ~3 hours of "gameplay" was 22.7k on a squishy in vivec.

    Healing is insane right now. It's a hard problem to fix because there are so many elements contributing to the problem - blockcasting, Guard, smart heals, Time Stop, Mist, cleanse/purge spam, armor that plays the game for you, etc etc.

    Snipe
    OP in terms of OverPerforming due to bugs, lag or other issuues, I'd say Snipe, closely followed by Torugs on WW with oblivion damage glyphs.

    OP in terms of OwerPowered "on paper", out of those you listed I'd say Steel Tornado which has just a little too much going for itself (PBAoE execute scaling from 99% of HP, undodgable, big range, even more extra damage to under 25% HP from Slaughter passive and yet even more extra damage to CCed targets from Ruffian passive)

    I went with bleeds. It falls back on damage that works well while still being tanky. The same thing I dont like about procs but they are mitigated and avoidable.

    Healing in general is a little over the top but I think it as well as Rapids falls into the same issue of buffs that benefit too many players at once without the issues of targeting those players that any negative effect would have.

    Stealth/cloak is the most OP.

    Stealth/cloak gives major boosts to offense : adds stun, weapon damage, weapon crit, and enables people to literally stand right next to you before they attack with their insanely overpowered stealth combo.

    Stealth/cloak gives insane boosts to defense : enabling to escape up to 10 people (who look like idiots running around shooting flares with 5m radius) while avoiding all attacks (even if they were fired b4 stealth), cleansing dots, and healing.

    If stealth/cloak only was a major offense or defense weapon, it would still be strong but combined it is insane.

    However, without stealth/cloak NB would not be able to play, so it will probably never be changed.

    torugs werewolf is at the moment the most op thing. All other things are just a joke compared to this cheese.

    Almost unkillable, hard to target when using the pet morph and extremely high damage. Torugs stills ticks on every WW bleed even on PC.
    Ice Furnace: This item set now grants Spell Damage, rather than Weapon Damage for the 4 piece bonus

    Bad poll.
    To start with, what is OP in CP is not the same as in Battlegrounds (no CP).

    Also console v pc are different. For example, mouse targeting makes pets less of a big deal in BGs on PC, but on console pets are ridiculously easy to abuse.

    Besides bleeds I would say that skills that affect group (example: purge, rapids) are quite OP in groups vs casting those skills solo (if you take into account stamina / magicka cost per player).

    Other than that, a charged ice staff blockade spammer is real damn annoying.

    In BG with a dedicated healer u can run it in pve setups and have dps with insane damage even in no cp drop aoe to blast anyone who come close, it’s ridiculous.

    I haven’t tried personally but I’m against groups like that and at that point you really can’t do anything, the game is gonna be theirs.
