I don't call OP often (first time in NW), and I'm not convinced that it is OP yet-but- what are your thoughts on the GF's at will charge in PVP? Seems like a pretty wonderous ability.
Also how do you counter it-GF can do a lot of damage when specced right and seems to be able to be constantly keep on you with that at will power.

on that note, I would love to group with a good GF in pvp. thatd be so nice
PVPer rocking it Solo queue style since the dawn of Neverwinter
Tbh having a control wiz and rogue double team a gf will take him down in seconds just like any other class.
GF vs Cleric = Good Cleric can keep himself alive and keep allies in the fight while tanking a gf going balls deep on him for a minute to a minute and a half which might not seem like a long time but it is.
GF vs control wizz = gf gets kited by long duration spells and while he's chasing him around leaves himself vulnerable to everyone else on ur team.
GF vs Rogue = Rogue should not be trying to solo a GF in the first place, go in when you see some crowd control on him and take him down with combat advantage, if the gf turns on you daze him and wait for more cc from a teammate and finish him off.
GF is a really good soloing/point defending class in neverwinter a class has to have some kind of strength this just happens to be the GF's in pvp.
Credentials: Level 60 GF, CW, TR, Level 50 DC
This is just one of a GF's strengths. It is already the strongest pvp class without it.
My pro-tip of the day? Ignore it...
It's low range, low damage. Of course it's annoying but its mostly meant as a annoyance / follow skill till our encounters get from cooldown.
I'm not complaining about it, I'm asking the pvp community what they think about the GF at-will charge ability and how they deal with it. Also, the GF can 1vs1 any class if played decently so I don't see how that can be considered in any way "weak" in pvp.
In my opinion the classes are largely balanced in pvp, each very powerful in its own way. However, that GF at-will is an outlier that I haven't thought of a good strategy to counter yet which is why I'm asking about it. I guess atm just ignoring it while CDs on other skills are down is the best approach as paranoid suggests.
The problem is that a GF does not have a set rotation and they have quite a few different skills they might use depending on the player so its very hard to predict them. Every other class almost always uses a single build for pvp and have a set priority and rotation so they are predictible for dodging, I mean you can expect every rogue or CW to follow almost the exact same rotation every time in pvp so it is easy to counter and dodge and once you do they are fresh meat. A GF on the other hand has a lot of different options in how they can go about it, they have a lot of different options for combat and they also are not as reliant on encounters/dailies as everyone else so dodging does not help much against them.
Do you mean that a GF can only use the at-wil charge if the target is in range? You can't just spam it as a movement ability? (Sorry for my ignorance, and thanks for the help!)
Nooo...Lunging Strike is great because it lets you fly up onto the second floor in a lot of places
It's fun lol.
That said, if there's a healer nearby, I can't kill anything. Ever.
