Two Handers, Dual Wielding, Mages, and Rangers are OP

In my personal opinion from what I have observed so far in game....these players can destroy mobs easily. I see two handed specs soloing final group dungeons all the time with no problem. They hit way to hard and often and should be nerfed.
Also rangers do WAY to much damage and they can snare you for far to long imo they're way OP and need to be nerfed. This is broken.
Mages last but not least are the worst....they do way to much AoE damage and can destroy large zergs and large groups of mobs well above their level by spamming their AoE spells. They're way to OP.
EDIT: ALSO One handed needs to be able to do MUCH more DPS, or be able to protect for more damage. I think shield protection should be increased by at least x3.

But seriously it's like sooooo OP3 -
kevjon74_ESO✭✭If you're using one-handed with shield, then you should be relying heavily on shield bash. That's the sword and board's bread-and-butter attack, and is rightfully devastating.2

Bwaite43✭✭Oh your serious.. I enjoy playing sword and board very much. When I need to increase my "tankage" this is what I like to use. I switch "weapons" all the time it just depends what I am doing at that time.0 -
Mace✭✭This thread is a joke right?
Bash builds are some of the most dangerous out there. Plus I think he named all the other buildsMasce0 -

The first attack you make up close should be puncture (or one of the morphs), this destroys the enemy's armor rating and set's them up for any follow-up. Shield bash after that should be deadly. You should be able to finish off the last half of any normal enemy's health with 3 bashes at most.
And, true, bashing can take a lot of stamina (or else you'd use nothing else). But eat some stamina food and wear stamina recovery jewelry and you'll always have enough to get by-

Heishi✭✭✭✭✭so basically everyone except healer is OP lmaoAnd so did many brave men, women, and beast fall to the end of Beta, never to be heard from again. All that is left, is whispers of the adventures they had.5 -

Doesn't this game tie abilities to what the player is wielding & wearing, or am i thinking of Skyrim / single player game? What I mean is that if a mage is dual wielding, that they just won't be able to use some abilities as the possible arm gestures needed to cast a spell couldn't be made with those weapons or while wearing a certain number of heavy armor pieces?
if not, they should do this...it also allows them to create new abilities for characters to use when using certain weapons...for example, a mage wielding 1 sword should have some mage abilities tied to that, also not just mages, every class should have stuff like this.
This is one of the quirks of this game i feel. They left things very open in terms of toon creation. So some people might not have purchased all the abilities in a given tree, i know I didn't get that particular ability yet (although it is high on my list right now as someone who enjoys tanking from time to time). So there are those who built a certain way, which fun to play, might not be the most efficient built for a particular idiom like tanking for example.

Tweek✭✭✭Also forgot to mention at max DPS my mage hits for 650+ DPS......my bash(if spammed which costs a ton of stamina and causes me to run out quickly) does 450.1

Both my characters are maxed for their level.0 -
Tweek✭✭✭Shield bash should do another 50 DPS......to even it out seeing as how shield don't protect for anything.
Mages should have either less magika or do less magic damage.1 -

Donarion✭
Are you serious? You need to play a different class then. No way one-handed does anywhere close to the amount of damage a dual-wield or two-handed build does, and they're not supposed to. One-handed is for tanks, and tanks don't do a lot of damage. I can maybe see an argument for raising their defense a bit.
