As someone who doesn't main awk drak but would consistently see them top frag in rbf, often dunking me before i even see them on screen... i am happy. They still maintain their tanky stature so at least they have that. They'll now be more on par with warrior and nova now in terms of tank and damage in pvp. Always found it insane how a class could be in top damage and top tank levels at the same time. Thought it would be more like you either Tank or Damage, not both. Akin to succ nova.
I hope they bolster drak’s pve ability but the pvp nerfs were well earned. After looking at the KR vs JP tournament, I think the devs finally realized how insane the class is.
If they only check my PvE report about drak, she can be very good pve class. But you know it, they dont even know there is an extremely detailed report :D
@@Quendya hopefully after all the skill hit changes, it forces them to reevaluate the PvE competency of some classes. And then that happens I hope they look to ur report for inspiration
Its about time Drakania got nerfed. Shes been too good for too long. Ranger and Archer nerfs are nice too. I dont know Archer well enough to know if the skills that were nerfed are the ones that bomb the crap out of you from outside of render distance, but heres hoping.
I'm gonna be honest, I'm a filthy casual so I forgot that you can even use skills on horses. The only "combat" activity I've done on a horse is matchlock hunting - since they didn't mention that I assume it still works.
I am fine with them nerfing drak but with the overwhelming ranged superiority in nw; I hope the archer nerfs do somthing. Being a melee in node war right now is rough regardless of what class.
Bye bye metaslave drak players! The new class is coming, PA wants money, new meta is near. This was inevitable .I am sry for real drak players who play cuz they love their class. Hopefuly this won't kill her pvp entirely.
Drakania was absurd!!!, absurd mobility, healing, tanking and colossal damage was deserved and in reality I thought little could have been nerfed in movement too but in the end better than nothing, now the nerf on the archer was the most unfounded thing about this pacth, It's already the most fragile, unprotected class full of gaps in the game and the PA goes there and nerfs it, but it's even tragic because it's so comical, the heavy nerfs that come in these last two patch notes have decreed the complete end of the archer
You know drak is a melee class that requires to get in the close range with a really slow damage skill animation right? well. then archer nerf is a well deserved too. U can no longer get a free kill from mile away without risking ur neck. i guess
This is some bullshit sure she use to hit hard but her skills are long animations and not much AOE and she’s not that tanky. She got nerfed into the ground! I don’t wanna switch classes but I want to be competitive and helpful to my guild in pvp. Im mad idc what anyone says
BRO WTF! They gave us (drakania) mystic lvl dmg nerfs!. Doombringers on 80% PVP dmg reductions?!!! Doombringer is already a very long animation skill. What we do now, relay on non existance small AOE hex blood with giga long animation? They think we do some bs fast combo attack? We ain't mystic!.. oh damm, Now i need to make a new PVP combo which is hard because every fking skill got useless CCs on them to mess up the combo!
Adapt. Or swap class and be a flavor of the month player people look down upon. I hear zerk and striker are PA's golden boys so they may be a safe option to play.
So you're saying she could only PvP if she had overpowered pvp damage? I recall awk sage was OP as f their first month or 3...awakening dark knight for about a month or 2...then bam, nerfed. What makes Drak so special that she should retain her overpowered damage? She still tanky af... Is the fact you have to learn combos to down smash and take more than 3 skills to kill someone the issue?
@@myTERAexperience if only her skills cd/animation wasnt such a long ass. then sure.. a damage trading class without a damage. every sa skill is basicly asking for the grab. that s why she cant do more then 1 sa skill then move. and dont foget her dash cant spam when on cd .
Nerfing Drakania is a mistake, PA should buff other classes to get the same performance as it. we will continue to be stuck with meta classes the same way.
Nah bro, many classes are too overtuned with their PvP damage. Continuously buffing classes PvP performance will create more insane powercreep issues. They need to nerf top performers slowly but step by step, give full SA classes gaps or change some of their skills with FG, using protections should become meaningful again, no one should be able to one combo one another in equal gear / even if they can, they should die very quickly as well. Hopefully with the DR / Eva changes, we can create characters that are either very tanky or glass cannon or something in between.
WHY WHY WHY THE FUCK DOES DRAK GET NERFED INTO FUCKING OBLIVION AND BACK????? THE FUCK IS THIS DW GUYS JUST FORGET YOU HAVE DRAGON BLOOD CUZ IT FUCKING SUCKS NOW.... OUR 2 STRONGEST COMBO SKILLS THAT KILLED TARGETS LIKE SORCS WELL TO BAD ITS FKN GONE.
Might want to play some other classes and realize the changes are largely reasonable, and potentially even still allow for room such as healing adjustments.
Roll Striker or Zerk. They are the golden bois who are pretty much safe from nerfs. Or, Adapt... Now you know how Awakening Dark Knight felt years ago when they were top pvp dmg and have never made it back to even mid...
They're not remotely difficult. Awakening was very easy to pick up and objectively they have skills that trade with a very high rate of damage, like Shift+Q.
I was expecting nerf on heal heavily but seems like they wanted to touch "superarmor damage" trade nerf. Maybe next week more nerfs on heal who knows. New class is on the way and they have to cook new meta. BTW nerfs are kinda ok. We ll see it on offical patch.
@@Quendya Pretty much the same - with the heals as well, and the DR/EVA/Hit changes... feel like it's going to be even more established in the current 'meta-arc', as well on a similar note as many of its current peers and potential revitalization of others like perhaps Mystic.
