I made this video of some one-shots and high critting two-shots in PvP.
It took me a few hours of PvP to collect this many shots.
Basically I wanted to show that TR can still do a very high amount of damage in PvP after the patch.
Also I wanted to make a video that people can enjoy. Hope you do

some DC at least.
This is usually done because the 2 piece bonus is better than the 4 piece bonus. This means using 2 pieces from one set and 2 pieces from another set equals 2 good bonuses. I use a mix of the master assassin set and the sinister shade set. That is 450 bonus to power and 450 bonus to crit.
There is no point to whine for nerfs because you win some and loose some. Crying just makes a player look like a crier and no one, especially the devs, should take them seriously. Have a nice day!:)
What if i told you, that 4/4 swash gives you 1k power and 1k recovery? all you need to do is throw 5 daggers and you are good to go.
It would be like me posting 3 minutes of clips of my GWF doing 4v1's. While it can be done, and it's a hallmark of the class and in my mind, balanced (much as the TR one-shot against low-gear opponents), it is still an extreme case of a well-geared and skilled player putting the class at it's peak of performance.
And as such, causes tears and calls for nerfing from those who don't want to work for the gear, and don't have the skill, to come close to that level.
Good job to the op, though.
"D*mn wizards," said Morik the Rogue.
Learn what a GWF and GF really are: The History of Fighters
Actually, with the right gear, debuff and timing a rogue can 1-2 shot almost anybody and this is why they are op and a real problem.

There is NO pvp in Neverwinter.
You mean "to devs"...
But anyway, not really. What's the point of a TR if they are not dangerous and can potentially one-shot? After all, they can only do it at most once solo against any half decent equivalently geared player, because you know they are there now. They are like snipers in FPS. They have to adapt, and you have to adapt too.
The only thing that matters is HOW they do it. If it is via some unbalanceable way, like the currently undodgeable Shocking Execution where it is irrelevant how much damage the skill does because it gives no one a chance to avoid it, then that is an issue. But for everything else, bring on the challenge! It makes the game more interesting.
Last thing anyone wants is to feel "safe" in PvP, no matter your class or gear!
If you look on my channel you'll see this video:

Which is a collection of one-shots from before the patch.
You can very noticeably see the difference between my hits. Although that video is shorter, I do a one shot on GF and GWF also, which I haven't been able to do since the nerf.
Also, I've since upgraded my enchants from 7s to mostly 9s now.
The nerf had a very big impact on the damage TR does in PvP. You can clearly infer that from the lack of QQ'ing threads nowadays.
When recording PvP for the post patch video, I would get about 2-3 of those shots per PvP; it's not like they happen all the time.
I just wanted to showcase the current state of TR, and also compare it to before the patch.

Nice compilation. Could use a little editing and the screen seems really really dark, also I found that if you show a little more build up on each "clip" aka a few more seconds leading UP to it, it "flows" better.
Overall, not bad, maybe next vid put a LITTLE more time into editing and you got some nice damage there!
I would say you are wrong. The 4 set bonus effect for the Swashbuckling Captain's set is "Your powers have a 25% chance to grant 338 Power and Recovery for 6 seconds. This effects stacks 3 times.". At three stacks that 1014 Power and Recovery for only 6 seconds with a 75% chance of it not happening. Don't forget the 450 Recovery 2 piece set bonus.
Zokir is right that its a personal preference on what players use in the game. Chances are because of all the bugs it is closer to 90% chance of the 4 set bonus not working instead of a 75% chance. I simply decided to go with prolonged guaranteed 2 set bonuses. With the right gear, debuff, and timing almost any class can one - two shot anybody.
There is no point to whine for nerfs because you win some and loose some. Crying just makes a player look like a crier and no one, especially the devs, should take them seriously. Have a nice day!:)
The screen gets darker because of lurkers; maybe a little my settings as well- not completely sure on that.
I tried to fill the video with as many shots as possible to fit with the song. Maybe next time I'll try a few different things with the editing to see if it can turn out any better.
Thanks for the feedback

Go to the nearest training dummy, slot sly flourish , and hit for 3 seconds. And tell me if it is still 75% chance not working.
I get atleast 1 stack ( 330ish power/recovery) per second. Maybe i'm just too lucky.:rolleyes:
Don't always get the chance to build the stacks though, is another thing to consider.
Hyenas@zokir - Essence of Aggression
now go make another vid of how you finish your foundry lmfao its giving me a headache!
Yes you do, if the TR even farted, he would still get a stack.
It is very simple to build them, all you need to do is throw daggers or use some sly flourish. Going 2 piece/2 piece makes you lose alot of bonus imo.
Hmm. I've only done a little experimenting with the 4-piece sets. Maybe I'll try it some more and see how it goes.
Hyenas@zokir - Essence of Aggression
Yeah spend a LITTLE more time editing, its not the size of the crit or frequency but part of it is the surrounding gameplay as well. What situations were you in and got those.
Not that mine is the perfect model but I got alot of positive feedback about my TR video (some negative too)

Yah, you gotta learn to play to defeat TRs. Or just ask cryptic for more nerfs because that's easier.:rolleyes::rolleyes:
You gotta learn how to play a TR than. Or just say to others that they need to "l2p" because that's easier :rolleyes::rolleyes:
Yes my 12.5 GS cleric has been 1 to 2 shot by you before Hyenas lol. Yup I can vouch she is for real (And yes I am good at getting away from TR normally just not in this case)
You definitely don't need to learn to play. You can go eat them up with your unicorn mount and fairy companion!.
Why learn to play if you can whine about them on forums? :cool: /MMOlogic101
Can't kill Sentinel GWF? NERF!
Can't kill conqueror GF? NERF!
Can't kill a TR? NERF!
Yep, it must be the game mechanics. :cool:
I remember you
Although I don't usually aim to one-shot clerics Lol

You have a lot of recovery? I see always LA (daily) up... how do you raise it so fast?
My lurkers assault is always up in the video because it's different clips from PvP.
Most of my high hits happen when I'm in LA, so that's what is showed in the video.
It's not always up
Hyenas@zokir - Essence of Aggression
it supposed to look like that ?
you're saying that someone with skill can bypass all of these advantages?
