Hey Dragonknights, do you ever feel…

SandandStars · August 2023

like you’re a really skilled player when you beat a Necro or Magsorc in PvP?

I am genuinely curious…

LunaFlora · August 2023

i feel that way when i beat most people, because i am pretty bad at pvp combat

Yes. Just because something can be easy doesn’t mean it doesn’t require skill. With Necro healing and Sorc mobility, you need to have some kind of skill to get kills on the good ones.

I only feel skilled playing dragonknight when I beat another dragonknight

Dragon knights and wardens really only get bragging rights when they kill another of the same class. Otherwise it's easy mode vs a higher level of difficulty.

Rhaegar75 · August 2023

Oh yes because stam sorcs loaded with procs are really easy to fight

SandandStars · August 2023

thats why I wrote Magsorc 😁

Well magsorcs are really having a bad time indeed

SandandStars · August 2023

Quite so.

Arcanist displaced Magsorc.

How does it feel to lose a 5v1 on a dk though? I feel like most dks arent very good and only manage to stalemate.

So normally i just feel good about winning over a known good player.

It was fun to play the OP DK for about 1 session before I went right back to my magsorc and stamden (not frost warden, an actual stamina warden).

I do miss when DK wasn't so OP though, it was so much fun to play when it was an underrated class.

Meh, Magsorc still has some of the juiciest burst in the game. Arcanist has damage, but it has to be set up and can only be performed mid range. Magsorc still remains the king at deleting healthbars from off-screen.

Arcanist shields do put Hardened Ward to shame though lol

Edit: NOT saying magsorc isn't in need of love - just that I don't think Arcanist really takes the place of it. Besides shields, their kits function quite differently.

MagSorcs are truly in a sorry state unlike their forever prancing around cousin stam sorc perma loaded with proc damage

This, it's a shame people can't seem to tell the difference between mag and stamsorc. Gotta love trying to explain the magsorc perspective in this game only to get shouted down because people never bother to pressure the stamsorc and force them to retreat (very easy to do btw with sorcs extremely bad healing capabilities).
