Sorry but it is. I took five classes I have at 60 on an account I use for alts, each with about 3 boons (from each area), basic level 60 pvp gear, and I tried them with simple level 5 enchants, 3 purple artifacts, and blue neck and waist. Now that is quite far from BIS but not so bad that they would be at the absolute bottom of the gear pile in a bracket that is not even end game.
CW, TR, GF, HR, SW. They performed in exactly that order, and only SW was complete and total fail. If a player on another team even looked at it, it was dead.
The class has zero defense and zero survivability in pvp.
Those of you with BIS (or even end of mod5 BIS) will fare much better because you are simply better geared than much of the competition. But I can almost guarantee I can one-rotation a "20k" SW with my "13k" GF.
The class is a real parody of what any class in any game with the label "dnd", should be. Cryptic should be ashamed of its self and I feel bad for those who really mained a SW and spent a ton of time and money on it. You've been had and it is understandable that no one wants to say "well ya I'm a sucker playing a crappy class that the devs abandoned and whos players of that class they mock and do not take seriously".
Don't be mad at me for saying the truth. I hate it. I should have stayed off my SW tonight, it really reminds me of everything I hate about this game and of nothing I like about it. Peace and good luck getting buffed someday.
I play SW - SB/fury in PVP and i am not very amused hearing this, but i hope having decent PVP gear with tenacity and beeing lev 60 (in case of upscaling is broken and not a very solid base to have any idea about endcontnent PVP) will solve that problem a bit?
but in case of TR who ignores all your defences and is invisible the hole match (lololol) now I am pretty sure that playing SW in PVP will be a big mess
very sad in case of beeing underpowered in mod 5 and now devs gives you some trash encounter thinking they have done their job, lol
atm i have no real use for hadar gasp and hadar arms, gasp = low damage very short stunn >16 sec cd??
hadars hand slow and clumpsy long cast, targetting very bad, on top no damage, take it back cräptic, put it in a shelf
really can´t imagine that Warlocks bargain, or Killing flame or infernal orbs are things i will sacrifice for this strange encounter
PVE wise hadars gasp and hand is no choice atm in my case, so until now these enceounters seems to be useless
dark prayer 12,5% DR when under 50% life+ 4% lifesteal, hm in case PVP facing perma invisible TR´s no big help, beeing oneshottet again, and ... no target--> no lifesteal, DR ignoring encounter---> no effekt
all consuming curse is the only thing i could imagine it will be helpfull
cräptic go home, you don´t have any ideas to deal problems, not one
1) Ferocious reaction still MULTIPROCS FOR ****!
2) Got 50% arp, HG > WB > DT against GWF, I see 0 damage floaters. What the F! Tried with perfect plague fire too, still those same floaters. Romanporter and the rest should cry more. Now they all just run around with T.Bloodtheft and jump like monkeys.
3) TR, no 2 seconds reveal in stealth - no comment.
4) Faithful DCs is basically unkillable, even worse than they used to be.
5) HRs now daze with roots. Even seen a HR that literally permadazed me to death (I got 1.8k tenacity atm)
6) Anyone can still counter a SW easily and go away with it.
please can u post taht to the bug-zone, so the devs may have a chance to "take a look at these problems", so we can hope this will get fixed in 2 years
i am nearly finished with this game
SW should have invisible when shifting the key , so they will survive to avoid any mass damage from attacker . this call mini teleport to another places , the shift key for SW at the moment just a shadow walk with damage resistance . why not the shadow walk is invisible for temporary , using stamina and a ability to move without notice to another location .

I hope all the bugs are posted. There are just so many and I think people would be shocked at what is WAI.

Nah, my post would be just "SW is ****, delete it and refund my RP to my rogue please, thanks"
Oh and GWF is such a weak class....really weak, something they say as weak as SW is...yet I am fully pvp geared 110k HP SW die just by hitting this from FEYTHISTLE. The **** - just tried HG > AoH > HS > AoH and had like 60% of my HP gone just by trying to counter GWF at least somehow ffs. Truly, just don't try guys, SW is only good for killing low geared pugs and other SWs now.

well I dunno about 70 yet, my 61 SW proved me to that I can still wreck alot of people, CW's and SW's though are the only ones I can reliably kill
