Just wondering what you guys think is the hardest class to beat as a seeker. For me its barbs... seekers just dont do enough dps to beat them, especially if they're charmed. For me i find sins to be easiest, just wait for them to use tackling slash and use qpq and sage unfetter and then game over. what about you guys? how do you think i should beat a barb? i use ion spike, blur, then spam heartseeker and battousi as much as i can but its often not enough... what to do?

    I am not sure it would even be a good idea to 1v1 a good barb. Unless you outgear it or the barb is just that terrible a player, be prepared to use up a ton of charms, apo, and whatever else you use in pvp and grab a snickers while you are at it.

    This is true, but it's suppose to get easier with the skills upgrade. I fear to see how much ion spike will hit on a poor barb/BMb:shocked

    Nah for me barb and sins is the easiest class to beat as seeker;) on my lvl i defeat very good sin lvl 84 and barb 79lvl.I starting with stun,spark blade affinity and gemini slash next heart seeker if he are paralysed im spamming magic skills and fight is over o.o.But the hardest class is Psychic cuz as seeker we dont have a good 1v1 psychic skills.only magic or aoe but going to close psychic is hard.If i playing psychic vs all classes im only using earth vector,stunned and glacial shards and other one skill the fight is over and they cant reach me o.o.But seeker is very hard than other;)Reasuming seeker is good for barb cuz they can use magic skills and stun/paralyse. Good for LA cuz have psychical/magical skills and good p.def and kinda squishy with mag classes cuz dont have sutra as bm but if u good play u can defeat all classes;)


    *p.p on my lvl the highest lvl i ever defeat is mystic 89lvl o.o (stun,spark and gemini slash with crit o.o + staggering strike;)

    The hardest part with barbs is getting through that hp before their charm ticks. Spamming the debuffs and getting a good crit in to take them down.

    My biggest fear is Venomancers with their damn purge and DoT's.

    The key to taking BM's, Sin's and Archers, is not getting stunned. Then it's just debuff and slam em down.

    I'm a little short on the hp compared to a barb, but I'm about as hard to take down because of my Def levels.

    Cutting through squishy LA's and to a lesser extent venos is easy, barbs are a bit on the harder side along with bms (cuz of they're HA) but are manageable by using control skills and spamming debuffs and metal skills.
    I personally find psychics to be the hardest (unless u can 1 shot them), since they hit like a truck in black voodoo and hav higher def lvls than we do in white voodoo. b:surrender

    no such thing...
    all classes can be hard or easy to kill.
    it all depends how your opponent plays.

    But yes a complicated class would be able reflect dmg back towards yourself.
    e.g. a veno or a Psy's Soulburn

    Unless... your more Tank than DD throw whatever you got lol.
    However.. if your DD is stronger than your defence you prob end up killing yourself
    like sins with +10 daggs with bad refined gears.

    Sacrificial slash helps quite alot in my experience.
    For example triple spark curse pot blade affinity sac slash fortify qpq ion spike metal skills

    barb is definatly the hardest class to kill and id have to say any aa class except a cleric would be the easiest class to kill on a seeker just cause of gemini slash. also i know someone said bm's are difficult to kill on a seeker well this isnt really true if a bm uses phys marrow you use magic skills and destroy them easily if they use mag marrow then you go with phys skills and if they use no marrow well then its easy to kill them with mag.

    Any BM that marrows in a fight against a seeker deserves to die b:laugh I have trained all my BM friends not to go near those buttons when they are fighting us.

    Like qpqing rib to a sin that's skill spamming matters. I'd rather save it for if they ttackling or are stupid enough to subsea.

    eh only problem with qpqing rib strike back is that there just gonna spark it off and half the time you cant put it back on them anyway cause of tidal protection. and yea i know its stupid for a bm to marrow when fighting a seeker but most of the bm's on my server dont know that lol

    To be fair, 90% of them are idiots and are easy 2-shots (a few remember deaden nerves still). Personally, I enjoy dueling them and hitting alpha male against the idiots that demon spark + APS so they suicide on bramble.

    In regular PK I don't bother with qpq on rib because the lolaps sins are easy kills anyways and the smart ones either have tida, know to use skills til spark wears off so they can puri themselves 15 secs later without worry...or can push two buttons and be back at full chi to spark rib off instantly.

    Though it IS funny to do it just to **** off the stupid ones when you toy with them

    Back to barbs.. Who said they re easy to kill? LOL
    If someone said so, means you re r9 or you never met +10 barb or you were just dueling or your enemy had only primary skills (for example 0 morei skills).

    In PK it's totally different like someone said, apos, charms etc. So don't compare if you were just dueling..

    Easiest class to kill.. bms all the way.

    I'm surprised no one mentioned mystics. In pk a seeker shouldn't challenge a barb of the same gear or better gear, why you ask? Seekers cant kill charmed barbs of the same gear, and charmed barbs cant kill seeker. I have rarely seen this done, and every time it was down it involved the seeker triple spark->sacrificial slash->Extreme Poison. I find very good mystics hard for seekers to kill

    I find all HA and LA (if they aint rank9 or +10) fairly easy. Casters like psys go to, unless they manage to get soulburn on and they have a considerable amount of soulforce. I find mystics annoying as well, but that could just be the lack of experience I have against them.
    Actually, if you play smart and the other player is fairly noob and doesn't know what he/she is doing, it's pretty much easy to kill them no matter the class.
