What class do you see most in PvP? [2021 edition]

Seraphayel

Title says it all.

Which class do you see most in PvP encounters? Is there a difference between Cyrodiil and Battlegrounds?


Very interested to see your answers!

(I hope the poll answers are matching the class colors this time)

Warden

I see so many wardens that I wonder, how is there any untamed wildlife left in Cyrodiil.

Anyron

Warden

While there is no proc set test - sorcerers
But this wont last long then wardens are going to be top again

coop500

Nightblade

Blightblades everywhere

Bradyfjord

Templar

Imo, it is jabs and beam. I see all classes, but templar I see the most. To be fair, I haven't gone into Cyrodiil during testing.

Eedat

Warden

By far warden

TequilaFire

Sorcerer

If you see Nightblades, they are bad Nightblades. lol

Pauwer

Necromancer

It's a bit hard to say, but necro with its skills is so easy to spot, so it seems like they are everywhere.

Odovacar

Warden

So many wardens.

You're mistaking seeing many Wardens with seeing me many times

Wolfpaw

WW

Dragonknight

dizzy swinging stam dks as far as the eyes can see...

Seraphayel

What the hell happened to all the Templars in PvP? I remember them being everywhere and now they seem pretty rare.

Brrrofski

Warden

At least 50% of PvP is wardens and WW.

Class I see the least is probably magblade, closely followed by magcro.

Combat team happened. Why would I play templar when I can play literally anything else?

usmguy1234

Harbinger 100k health necros, werewolves and 40k health stamdens that still hit like a truck.

Kikazaru

Warden

I see wardens the most in Cyrodiil. The warden class is super forgiving to play. You are innately tanky and have a brain dead burst rotation.

But, during the No proc tests that we have right now, it has to be sorcerers, the amount of magsorcs that are running around is a farcry to how many there were prior to the testing. This goes to show how much they shine without the need of damage proc sets.

Dojohoda

Warden

During the no proc tests, Sorcerers, because they are the class with best built-in proc skills. Next would be Wardens. Beyond this test, Wardens.

olsborg

Warden

Stamdens(or stamcros) with proccs (crimson) Getting tired of it.

Flaaklypa

Dragonknight

FOTM class

Oreyn_Bearclaw

Warden

Definitely Wardens. Not surprising, as stam warden is the most powerful PVP class.

Vlad9425

Dragonknight

Like most of the EP alliance is DKs, though wardens are absolutely everywhere as well.

caperb

Necromancer

Actually anything not DK or temp

Literally everyone and their mother plays a health stacking prop warden... just kill this cancer already. Stamcro are their metastasis.

They are probably more noticable bc they're flashy, in reality hardly anyone plays this once-divine class anymore

Xargas13

Sorcerer

I would say sorc, every match I enter there is at least one sorc on each team.

Sangwyne

Warden

Wardens have several abilities that make them outliers in PvP. Arctic Blast has too much power budget for one skill; it is a %HP burst heal, which is also a %HP heal over time, which is also an AOE DOT with 200% increased chance to apply Chill, Minor Maim, and Minor Brittle (10% crit damage, frost staff only), which is ALSO a 4s AOE stun. The complaints about "tanks" in PvP, which have since gotten actual tanks in PvE nerfed several times, stem from %HP heals which allow a class to stack health, get it all back with single button press, and deal damage through Procs without the need for the usual stats, and Warden abuses this healing more than any other class. Don't believe me? Look at where Templar, the only class without a %HP heal, stands on this list. Wardens also have Betty, which is free, grants constant sustain even while blocking/running, purges, and grants Major Sorcery/Brutality, along with Shalks being quite a cheap (cost wise) skill that deals solid damage, is delayed, allowing for burst windows, and on Stamina builds hits twice.

Don't know because usually I die too quickly to notice which class killed me

OP, very clever way to ask for nerfs.
