They aren't.
But they're an example of what is going on in this forum. A lot of people are stuck with their ideas they had since the release of the game. Things changed, nightblades aren't bugged and guess what? Yes. I'm gonna say the opposite of your constant thought of as a average forum viewer, DKs aren't OP.
Have you ever tried sword and shield (and if possible with restoration staff swap) before saying that the high survivability is caused by the class? And dress + stick is easy dps only for DKs, right?

What I'm trying to say is that you should make your ideas (generally speaking) from your experience and only after this read the forum and discuss.

    oh and NBs are still "bugged". cloak still cuts off from every little thing, and half the abilities are still useless.

    sword and shield DKs can be OP, but not DKs in general. iv killed quite a few DKs myself. but you will see one with a shield take on nearly 10-15 players. it happens. that should not be possible. hence why people call it "OP"

    That would likely be a DK Emperor+Vampire taking on a bunch of low level players. No way can a DK take on 10-15 competent players no matter what class they are.

    From my experience, nightblades are (mostly) fine, but have a lot of abilities that do not give enough incentive to slot them over other abilities. When you're working with the extremely limited hotbar space in this game, an ability needs to be equally useful in an equal number of situations if you're going to risk slotting it over something else. Currently, there's very little reason to ever use blur, haste, path of darkness, aspect of terror, summon shades, agony, or cripple, and even mark target has very limited use to a nightblade. None of those abilities are better than the other class skills (or some non class skills) that you could be using instead.

    Templars, my second most played class after nightblade, are mostly fine as well. The only thing I think they need is a change to restoring aura/radiant aura/repentance to make it restore magicka and stamina instead of health and stamina. For the most part I think templars are perfectly balanced, but magicka has always been an issue for the class (at least since beta changed their magicka management skills) and it continues to be an issue for them compared to other classes.

    My limited experience with dragonknights tells me that they're great tanks and average healers/damage dealers. That said, I've never really liked the way the class is built; I think more of the abilities need longer range (whip could be increased some, stone fist could be increased to 28 meters, maybe change one of the searing strike morphs into a fireball with 28 meter range, etc). Could also afford to change the base range on fiery grip to 28 meters and make the extra range morph do something else.

    Even more limited experience with sorcerors: The class seems fine but has no melee-oriented abilities like the other classes do (spells which use melee crit rating). Perhaps some of the dark magic skills could be reworked to that effect, I'm not sure. I just really dont find sorcerors fun to play at the moment.
    Also always wanted to see unstable familiar changed from a scamp to a dremora.

    even IF the players are not competent, one guy should still not be able to kill 10-15 people. it just makes no sense. a "veteran"(seeing as how most people these days in PvP seem to be vet rank) should know that charging 10-15 people will result in death. yet they are free to do so in this game if they just use block, banner, and scales. im not saying they should only be able to take on 2-3 players. but 10-15 is a little extreme.

    And all these people just stayed in the ultimate big red circle? I doubt everyone was out of stamina and couldn't dodge. If he used bats I can understand though, but that's not a DK skill. And you know DKs don't have ranged ability, right? You can always get away from him for a bit lol
