call me noob or whatever you like but don't you think that seeker class is too damn strong?
several days ago seeker lvl 33 actually beat the **** out of my blademaster lvl 42 without buffing!!!! b:infuriated
damn, I know that I'm not that lame and weak but this is embarrasing for other classes...
soon there will be 80% of people with seeker class on any server and noone will care about other classes...b:embarrass
I think that something must be done with seeker class or to strenghten up other classes so that they won't be so dominating in PW...

    I don't care. Give people a reason to stop playing their damn sins and PvP will be balanced again.
    Let the seekers be strong and anyway, it all depends on how you build your class.

    You know . . probably the seeker is kind of the royal cash shop prince . . (b:surrender)
    All armor set +4 with legendary weapon mold like Eagle for lv 30 with the best available gemstone.

    If not . . people might start saying that you bad ? (b:surrender)
    Because defeated by seeker without buff ?

    . . their damaging + debuff skill on that lv always need to activate buff in order to work.

    I fought a seeker 1v1 on my barb and he couldn't do enough damage to kill me. The only reason I lost was because he kited constantly and I ran out of hp pots (and suck at pvp as a barb). I don't think they're too powerful, they're just annoying when they run away and don't fight. b:laugh

    I builded my class in compilation to best equipment I can found...
    my strenght is above 100, vitality and dexterity above 50 and magic less than 50...
    see, this is what I'm talking about: "Let the seekers be strong and anyway"
    I don't mean to argue or something, but soon most of players are gonna be seekers and that would look stupid to see on one server only that class...
    It's hard to give a reason to someone...
    try, if you're playing with other classes, play with seeker like me, and you are not gonna go back to your previous class so easy coz they are, maybe, too good and too strong class for PW...

    If youre a seeker, you shouldnt have a single point of magic added, so I would hope your magic is like, under 5, not 50... b:surrender

    Also, some of the seekers debuffs cannot be put on players, sooo I wouldn't say theyre THAT 'strong' just yet.

    Lolwut. Did you just mindlessly ignore the whole sin-spamming, when everyone and their grandmother were sins?
    And I do have a seeker, tyvm. I still prefer my barb over the seeker, and my archer over the seeker, to the point where I wish I didn't trash her to fund my seeker. The only reason I'm not playing my barb is because it's on a different server than the one Kritty is playing his seeker on. And they aren't that good.

    lol, that's the status of my bm and I love to play only with him, ignoring the seeker but his style and skills, effects too are good...
    why not to add some new skills too for other classes?

    the problem is that I can beat most classes (haven't battle them all) equal to my lvl but then how could I lose to seeker who's lvl is less than mine own by 10 lvl's?
    Isn't that a very strange?
    they are quite amasing by how fast they can knock down higher lvl of mops than their own (I can understand that one a bit)...

    Seekers are definitely not overpowered as they are, my seeker is level 95 at the moment and i've done a fair bit of pking on it. They are good at surving damage but seriously lack the ability to kill charmed players. Yes they have some amazing skills but they either cost chi, which seekers get VERY slowly or they have a long channel time. Both of the previous things make them tough to fit in a fight. Also the fact that seekers don't have any anti stun move makes it easy to stop them, yes they have the defenses & hp to survive most stuns but by the time they're out charms will have ticked or pots will heal up the damage they did.

    As for a seeker beating you in a duel, you might want to try a different tactic, blademasters are all about stuns, seekers got no antistun. Use your advantage.

    They do have a low channel time, but that is where their skill comes in handy for shortening their channeling time. For the sunning, it will be a match there. Though they don't have anti-stuns (yet possibly) they do have their share of stunning and such. But get hit with their debuffs and followed by an attack, you will be saying ouch X)

    i agree with fm coz ppl talk about earthgaurds being overpowered well i say good it will balance the over powerment of sins ,sins already have their stealth and force stealth(thats when they hide from you ).im not complaining i can trash a sin just as easily as a mage ,barbs will always be th best tanks ,if they wanna make it to where sins get beat by all classes then oh well stop cryin .deal with it whether its a seeker mystic barb bm veno cleric or w/e ,its a game dont cry over spilled milk

    They can't use their debuffs in PvP, which also makes them less than overpowered.

    Well then if that is so, seems the class is more for grinding. Still, you don't want to get hit with a stun, their ability to do more damage to you while you are stunned makes you go OUCH X)....and Niight, with that said, pls correct me if i am wrong again on this.

    We can use our debuffs just not Mind/Soul/Heart Shatter. We have to wait for our target to be affected with Parchedblade Dance and Northern Sky Waltz (while Soulsever Minuets affect is nice, in pvp you would be killed long before channeling Gemini Slash to use). I think this is going to be one of the classes that will be very dangerous at a high lvl as previously stated by Feone. I find Quid Pro Quo to be an excellent opener, and Parchedblade with Stalagstrike for the extra stuns. My only question is, when will the glitches from our buffs be fixed (both group and self)

    Seekers are far from OP...they drink enough HP pots during grinding to supply a whole TW army. The only new OP class would have to be Mystics...or did nobody notice the huge growth in visible pets running around in whatever performance you run the game in?

    When you can solo your own bosses at level, and heal yourself if things begin to go wrong, then you are truly OP. Seekers have no self-heal, and rely on distance to really stay alive...

    They are a ranged melee class...not the best combination, hm?
