So I just ran Grey Wolf dungeon with my level 37 SW and got paired with a level 42 Wizard and level 63 hunter. Apparently I lead all categories, including deaths. How does that happen?? I know we all got leveled down to 36 but still their gear and skills/etc should have left me in the dust. WTH???

    bad players that is all. Also, SW are pretty strong class over all.

    I went into CN and the tank was garbage as he was unable to hold threat and was simply walking in circles. The other two DPS and the tank died even with me as a templock healing and with a healadin. All three were one shotted, they had no defense or deflection to reduce incoming damage apparently. It took the two of us about 20 minutes to beat him but we did it just fine.

    My Templock is barely over 12K IL, so anyone thinking that SW are weak, we have to look at the whole class and not just end game damage. I soloed eToS on my templock at 12K without any deaths. On my CW that is over 13K I used my MoF build and I had many deaths and it took longer as well and my CW does way more damage than my SW.

    SW is a unique class and I really like what I see happening with Templocks. I'm excited to see those updates come to console.

    Yeah if they could make a Templock comparable to a buff/debuff DC we would be powerhouses.

    Simple answer: low level dungeon. People don't care about charts, just about finishing it in a mind numbing way. If someone is killing everything (which is usually one hits in these dungeons) they will just happily follow you around. It's certainly not because SW is op in any way or because those players are terrible.

    In low level content, youll do just fine as a SW. In the endgame content with endgame players is where u will suffer a bit, that is if u only care about a paingiver chart (which I never trusted). The problem for SW is low procc rates, which other classes dont have problem with. this leads to other classes being able to deal dmg in a shorter amount of time. Another problem with the SW is bugged encounters and low encounter dmg. I run with BIS groups fairly often. I have to really try hard to come close to say an HR of similar geared and IL. Even then that is only on single target. The other classes excell in AOE and trash mob due to being able to proc weapon enchants, faster cooldowns, and faster casting animations, etc..

    I know there are better SW then me out there. In AOE situations I suffer to keep up with other classes, which other SWs might not have that problem. I feel alot better long boss fights and single target situations. Even then I still struggle to keep up as a SW. I say wait on the m13 changes, if u dont like the changes u can always go to another class.
