    PvP Ponderings
    I never chose a class for PvE/PvP specifically - I choose them because they fascinate me in some way.
    (Also, its nice to see another player from the Bahamas~)

    I have 3 candidates.

    1- Seeker: Its a high hp class, high physical defense, high def levels, thus a rasonably tanky class. With samsara these mole guys are able to deal a damn ammount of damage to both heavy, light and arcane armor users. As thru it wasnt enough, they have 18~28m range on their chorus skills. LAME point: Not as good with antistun and doesnt move as fast as a sin.

    2- Archer: These **** have high damage, high crit rate and hits hard on both heavy, light and arcane users... they dont hit SO hard on heavy dudes, but still a good go. They reach like from archo to 1ks to crit you to death.

    3- Psychic: Kills everything on sight just by doing nothing x) They stand still while the enemy attack them and get sealed, take like 4k physical damage from deflect as if it wasnt enough, their purify spell make them stun lock you back with their seal while making YOUR stun lock completely useless. If you're a bm, youre screwed...

    Dont be trolling poor OP. We dont want him to be wasting all his time and money on inferior PvP classes do we ? He already spent so much time gooning to lvl 105.

    I can PvP on every class, seeing as I've needed to try them out personally in order to figure out ways to counter them. But I prefer two distinct classes: The cleric and the assassin.

    They both offer a. stunlock (Sin lock vs cleric sleep/sog) and b. Passive survivability (sin's tidal/deaden, cleric's shell and self heals). This gives me plenty of time to think, run scenarios in my head, and select the best option available that allows me to continue on a very long plan.

    This tends to explain why I excel in 1v1 (getting lots of time to think, and thus kill) and also why I fail terribly in group PvP (too much data input, can't process fast enough).

    I'm not a computer.

    Until you realize that in PvP...

    APS triggers Purify proc.
    APS deals rather meh damage to full S3 HA.
    Stealth can be popped by AoEs, stealth pots, and higher sins. Oh, and you can't attack anyone without leaving stealth.
    Shadow Jump/Stun are only necessary because sins have only 1 ranged skill, so this is a mild compensation.
    Bloodsuck 20! is useless.

    Honestly, the only reason I'm going aps is for a. the challenge, b. the lower cost, and c. to troll.

    Seeker:
    HA, large AOE damage, and because I'm too lazy to level another toon lol.

    But If I was going to start over and could somehow... transfer my R9RR to another toon? it would be a Mystic; heals, high damage, stuns, and I just generally love playing a Myst.

    I wasn't even planning to PvP when I first started playing so I just PvP with whatever toons I have.

    I mostly PvP on my Venomancer because it's my main and my favourite class. There's nothing better than watching people rage for being Purged, Bewitching people left and right and just landing debuffs and watch the opponents die (usually by the hands of others though since I play support/defence mostly).

    Archer is op class no matter what, You can say that sin can take them down ofc if they got more skill, but the skilled person with archer still woudl pwn more. Fact is Psy are real gangsta with the debuff and dmg reflection so let`s just say top 3 is:
    -SIn
    -Archer
    -Psychic

    ^hasn't probably fought against wizzies. They kill from outside seeker's range. And they do that very bad. Though if seeker gets inside gemini range, then wizzie is dead wizzie. If wizzie uses Essential Sutra, things get interesting as it becomes battle against time: who nukes enemy dead first? Anyway casters can be bit troublesome with their CC skills as they also have firepower against seeker's weakness to use when seeker has been stopped unlike sins that can be annoying, but can't usually hurt seeker too bad unless outgearing badly. In 1-hit K.O.s may seekers trust.

    Kitty has bit exotic choice for PVP: HA-veno. Why? Because HA-veno can match against opponent's strenght with correct defence and weakness with suitable attacks. Not to mention being the annoying lil fox doing everything nasty while being hard to kill. Purgeing OP enemies is Kitty's favourite hobby as nothing fancier than seeing enemy lose all their twenty buffs and get ganked by ppl they would normally crush like ants. f:cute

    It can get up close and personal if situation demands it and still survive far longer than my bm, (both are roughly in the exact same gear too) and it can also attack from a distance.

    I like any class. All are great cept for Psys. But I don't wanna start talking about that ****. So many ppl believe that psys are the best pking class, tho they know nothing. Seems like you guys always count in the Fully buffed factor. That is lame nonesense.

    I judge classes on their strenght while they are purely self buffed. A self buffed psy gets nearly oneshotted from anything o.o May it be BMs, Barbs, Seeker, Venos, Archer, Wizards, Sins, Mystics, let's say any class =P

    Problem is most of you guys don't have a clue about all classes, maybe 1 or 2, but not all. I played them all to an extend and I like to PK with all of them except for Sins and Psychics. They are just way too weak end-game wise.

    I prefer pking most on Wizards and Barbs for obvious reasons^^ but Seeker PvP is nice too but kinda lame...because seeker always kill with the exact same combo >.< Clerics are very fun to pk with too and so friggin annoying and nearly more resistant then Barbs. Archers are fun too, but lame as well...always that jumping around all the time is annoying and kinda cowardly. BMs are so friggin amazing to pk with due to their extreme versatility. BMs are the hardest class to master by far and have Skill combos like no other class. If played right a good played BM can kill ny other class and is still that much underrated. Guess there are just too many nub BMs playing this game (:

    So you see, PvP owns on nearly any class. Psys are just weak cowards and sins DMG output is just not high enough end-game wise to be competitive.

    I like pk most on psychic, but that is pretty circular. I like psychic most overall, so it ended up best geared, which is obviously a factor when in pk. Out of the 8 classes I've played, I like psychic most because they are pretty versatile. Pretty good damage , defense and offense choice, good and cheap control skills, aoe purify+heal ... They are usefull in many circumstances and not always bound to the exact same thing. I also think they go pretty well in the (current) rock-paper-scissors system of strong and weak points. And they are pretty cheap maintenance-wise when it comes to pvp b:laugh

    The class I'd consider best for pk these days would be wizard. With the last updates, they are best decked out against what used to be their weak points. However, choosing a pvp class just on what's strongest is pretty silly. In a few months things will have changed again anyway.

    @ Joe : it's clear you don't like psychics b:shocked but no need to invent silly things. I agree psychics are not the way to OP class some make it seem as legacy of the long forgotten aps era, but they are not as weak as you make them. They are made squishy'ish (no def buffs and black voodoo penalty) since they are so decked out vs aps. But they are not that easy 1 shots vs equal geared self-buffed. Seekers are the only class that really 1 hit them, but that still requires a zerk+crit. Well, a barb could if they weren't forced to stand right in front of the psychic for arma.
