What’s your most hated enemy class in PvP?

Seraphayel

Curious to know which class you hate most in PvP. Won’t split it into Stamina vs. Magicka because there’s not enough options but you can simply add that to your answer.

So what’s your most hated class/spec? Why does it take the top spot for you?

Probably an even tossup between magsorc and stamblade. Stamblade for the playstyle that people choose to use with it and magsorc because it’s probably my worst head-to-head matchup.

Warden

Tanky warden balls because IMO they are the most boring yet also the least fun thing on the battlefield of Cyrodiil.

The shield spam, the stupid annoying pet, the streak away and heal when I'm in trouble, the ridiculous burst for such a tanky class, the mobility, the resto ult they always use when you have them almost dead, the constant jumping up and down like they're a damn rabbit, the kill stealing execute. Nerf Nightblade tho!

I don't agree with NBs having insta burst than magsorcs. Just not right themetically. Especially when one kills you in seconds.

I can guarantee, 90% sorc mains will choose NB and 90% NB mains will choose sorc.

A good player.

I chose necromancer due to their cheesy ultimate. No other class can just delete me out of the blue without me even realizing it.

Other than that - would be a toss up. Sorcerers with their pets are aggravating. But so are those Dragon Knights who love to spam snares.

They feel trolly to fight.

_Ahala_

Its more about tactics than class when you get down to it... opponents who los in a 1v1 around terrain or pets, those who spam >50% snares or immobilizes, those who block almost everything, and those who use defensive ults on cooldown are kinda irritating to fight... every subclass has something every other subclass would find irritating

Nightblade

OP escape check
OP damage check
OP sustain check
OP burst check
OP survivalbility while being tanky at the same time check

Now why would I every choose Nightblade as my most hated class to fight against.

I'm a Magplar main btw!

Vermethys

Nightblade

It's almost a tie between StamNB and PetSorcs these days. Too much battlefield control and damage in those two specs. And they're usually played/mained by the cockiest, most annoying players.

I wonder how long it will take for this to turn into a stamblade v magsorc forum thread. The two types despise each other and frequently argue about which is stronger. Tbh they both strong and both a crutch playstyle/

Morgul667

Dragon Knight

A good player on any class, can kill anyone ^^

But I dont know, id go with DK just to be different ^^ the tanky type is plain annoying

LoreToo

Dragon Knight

Mag DKs are too powerfull cause of self-heal potential. Not that many players know about "Defile", so its kinda strong.
OP class in TESO - wardens, with 80% of buffs and debuffs in class lines, its not good

Arzharo

Sorcs are annoying to fight because they're close to broken atm, makes bgs unplayable. Nightblades are annoying because of their playstyle.

If you play nightblade you fit this generic profile:
Into anime
Always plays the stealth-like character in any game (rogue for WoW etc)
You also play Invoker in dota (and your steam profile pick is some edgy anime character)
You play sniper in fps games
You play Wraith in Apex Legends

BNOC

Dragon Knight

Speaking from a purely 1v1 perspective: MagDk is by far the hardest opponent for me to fight as a melee Magplar and I run snare immunity.

TBH, if you went to the duel spots on Xbox EU pre-Elsweyr, literally every single meta-chaser in game was on a tyro MagDK setup exclusively for duels. I am seeing less of them in Elsweyr though in favour of Sorcs.

We really have folks saying stamblades are op still? Tanky lil buggers but hardly op dmg anymore. And if they cloak? Detect pots ftw

Petsorcs tho... ffs

Plenty of things can be annoying, but I had to go DK as most hated. The self healing potential is insane right now - I see a number of DKs in low/mid MMR BGs that aren't even very good, yet they're instantly healing to full HP repeatedly. Trying to kill one on a garbage Magicka Necromancer is a lesson in futility.

Then there's the fact that Mag DKs are supposed to have balanced damage, just like everyone else...but then they get an extra +25% on virtually every attack if you're a Vampire. It's basically like having 100% uptime Major Vulnerability on yourself any time you're fighting one, and it's especially awesome having a % modifier on that new Whip damage.

I really really hate fighting sorces. Very mobile, strong and hard to kill. I hate it so much I've been thinking about changing my build and try shield breaker to see how it works.

sorcs should choose dk because of cc or warden because of shield and healing. most nightblades are easy frag. use detect potion and they lose their minds in panic.

Cloakblades yea, Magblade healers are pretty strong with dark cloak and getting more popular. I’m a bit insulted no one’s mentioned us yet, I need to tweak my build and up the annoying factor.

Only trash tier NBs panic when detected. Good NBs either don't use invisible Cloak at all or use it as a last resort.

Bleedblades can push pressure to an extreme, while maintaining high burst and mitigation. They have been majority of dueling competitions.

I’ve seen so many NBs panic when I use a detect pot but what people need to realise is that in a good player’s hands every single class in the game is OP. I challenge all the people who think NB is too strong to actually play the class in a competitive setting and they would quickly realise how hard it is to be successful with the class especially when you take into consideration the current tank meta and Nb being stripped of a lot of their burst potential in the Elsweyr patch. Try fighting a decent player on a magplar without defile or fracture and you’ll quickly see how not Op nightblades are.

geonsocal

the class of player who knows how to actually fight...why can't they all be potatoes...

although, for really good players, I guess everyone else pretty much is a potato...

Seraphayel

After excessively playing BGs today my vote will either go to Stamina DK (what the hell is going on with them? I feel like they’re constantly spamming Leap nowadays) or Magicka Sorc.

Adernath

Dragon Knight

The current meta is stamina DK. Tanky, unstoppable and high damage output.
