Ok, I am bored so I think it will be great if we post some thoughts about the hardest class to be killed by an archer in duels/pk. Of course we should discuss ways to beat every single one of them.

To me LA clerics with plume shell are almost impossible in duels. Barbarians too.
BM's are not easy but quite possible.

I expect some advice from an experienced pker here.
My people, some of them have run away to the hills
and have no shelter. No food, no one knows where they are,
hear me my chiefs, I am tired. My heart is sick and sad,
I will fight no more....

    BM/Veno/Wiz are all easy food. Barbs are near impossible if they're well geared and clerics are just annoying to kill.

    pk dont matter for ****

    Fixed. Killing someone from behind when they are doing something else doesn't prove a thing. Killing a player when they are totally prepared for you proves a lot.

    Duels have a big difference from pking. Same process in pking is used in tw which is fair since they know whats comming. Hieros make it harder also people actually use pots, pk pots, other items. Not everyone sneaks around, there are mass pk wars between rival guilds. There are plenty of white named people on lost city. Even if you disagree with pking its not right of you to lump everyone in one group. Dueling although it is fun will get you the ideas of killing another player but nothing can help more then a real pk fight for experience with heiros.

    edit - Barb sucks most for us fighting 1 vs 1, too much hp.

    lol in my opinion its

    Wizard easy
    Blademaster depends
    Venomancer if has a 9x phoenix and pk pills yes, hardest
    Barbarian only if i have full chi to triple burst and crit 2x+ there
    Archer NO, my luck hates meb:cryb:surrender
    Cleric quite ok, if they try plume shell i just debuff their metal def and go for metal. works pretty well at LA b:laugh

    archers have a difficult time killing barbs, but remember, barbs generally have the same amount of difficulty killing archers, since most barbs are vit based.

    Yea barbs are difficult. I can only consistently beat them when they are a few levels higher than me. Anymore than that and they pwn me.

    HELL NO. Archers are your long range sharpshooters. Need that pesky cleric out? Get an archer.

    Anyway, barbarians with charms are just headaches. It all pretty much depends on crit luck.

    Only class I have problems with is a barbarian.

    Blademasters can be a problem if they ever get close.

    Clerics are a problem if you dont play smart.

    Wizards are a problem if you dont interrupt them

    Archers are a problem if you dont critical first.

    Venomancers are a problem if you dont kill them before their pheonix gets you.



    Unfortunately, all this talk about duels is somewhat annoying. The "self proclaimed" PvP experts offering advice based on duels is just ludacris. You guys ran from a PvP server for a reason... Don't come back claiming you know it all.

    People on the PvE servers have got the wrong impression that PK/PvP on lost city is simply "back-stab" your opponites.

    Firstly, random PK doesn't occur as often as it probably should, and when you are completely aware of your surroundings, its not like someone is going to catch you off guard. Its not too hard to see someone with their "sword-mode" enabled - nevermind a red name which might as well be a glowing neon sign.

    Whenever I see one he's usually in my crosshairs ready to be recieve a nice opening "stunning arrow" or perhaps a serrated shot.



    But if there is any indication as to who is more inclined to comment about the success/failure of classes - I ask you to take a look at the level average for each server. Granted Lost City has been around longer, it's still no excuse considering you guys rarely have to watch your own backs while levelling.

    Learn how to read. He's saying he saw BMs owning in TWs. Not owning archers.
    Wondering how much longer these **** packs are going to be around.

    from what i have gheard and seen is this:
    BM can be a pain in the butt to kill if they keep stunning you
    Barbs can annoy the hell out of you because when they have a charm they just won't die
    Archers are tough to kill because of how high their dex is
    Wizards can deal major damage
    Venos will tick people off because they can attack from farther away and you never can tell where they are when their pet is attacking you and is blocking the veno from sight
    Clerics will definantly be the problem because they can heal themselves and others while being able to deal qucik damage from a distance.
    and if there is other things that i have missed so its not all in there.
    probably one of the smartest in perfect world
    yet the lowest of level
