Also off-bar-ing s/b is dumb.
What! Back baring SnB is ANYTHING but dumb vs people lmao. It’s a solid backbar in PvP.

It's a solid choice, doesnt mean its fun for the player or the people trying to kill him though.
"Oh great. I was about to kill this guy but he pulled a s/b... guess ill just go find someone else to kill..." - that sort of thing.

by 1 shot i literally meant 1 shot. templar runs up to me, casts 1 ability, it crits and i die. also mages with combo kills me like nothing.
since resists dont matter at all. where do i get traits for flat damage mitigation?
by tank i mean a dude with shield and sword, who i attack and barely knock off 5% of their hp, which he insta heals, and he 1 shots me in return
For someone to 1 shot you in pvp, it means you recieved a dmg of 15k atleast, which is the lowest hp you can get in no cp without slotting any points in hp or using hp glyphs. You must be naked for someone to deal 15k dmg to you. Hightest dmg I recieved on my stam sorc with 15k resists is 12k crit dmg from nightblade stealty onslaught. I have never been 1 shot on my stam sorc even with lower resistance than yours and I suspect lower hp as well, I only run 21k hp.

That’d be interesting. It’d be a subtle nerf to Templar, NB and Necro and a buff to sorc, DK and Warden. It’d also make heavy more attractive. With a change that big they’d have to change up some other stuff too.

Well, given that everybody with exception of some specialized builds runs 7 impen by default, it will only exclude newbies from pain of being "one-shot" by lucky crits.
Hello every one.
I recently came back to the game, release was rough. So far enjoying it all however, have problems in pvp. Basically battle grounds are unplayable because i always get one shotted. I tried various builds. Latest one i run was on dragon knight, all legendary with heavy armor, built for as much as possible of defense, yet not a tank. So i was happy and lolly, rolling into a BG, first encounter, i face a tank, literally a tank, no one could kill the guy, he barely takes any damage. So he rolls up to me, and 1 shots. I have to mention that i have 25000 resists in battlegrounds buffed. how the hell is that even possible? this 1 shot gameplays should be stopped. that game is also too fast for constant stun locks. i see mages and DKs chain stunning people to death and that stamina that you enter bg without CP is not enough to break out of a stunlock.
like im completely puzzled, especially by tanks that 1 shot. Im not calling for trash balance like WoW has. but these things over the top should be nerfed. like if you're tank, you shouldnt be doing that much damage at all.
Sure you are not jut running into multiple enemies, and having half a dozen of DOT's on you? Because that's what happens if you do. It feels like you are getting "one shot", but in reality you ain't. Check your death recap to see what's going on. If you are like a vampire going toe to toe with a magDK, it's self explanatory too. Or a magicka toon with low stamina, getting a lot of CC on yourself. Also, there are lots of premade groups, debuffing you entirely for someone else to take out. Know your Kryptonites...

Oddly enough I play a vampire magplar: I don’t think DKs are too bad, my nemesis class that gets me are magsorcs. The vampire downside is overrated if you spec with enough damage to hit hard.
1v1 my best ratio is against NBs (free kills); DKs, then Necro and Warden with the worst being sorcs.
Wearing 5x light in pvp tips the balance against some classes, but sorcs seem to be the kings of high damage specs.
If anything I think DKs need a buff, not to damage but to sustain. If their Ult isn’t up it’s almost guaranteed I’ll beat them 1v1.
