Just wanted to ask what your opinion about PvP was like in SoD so far, pre phase 3. Would like to hear about which class you loved playing in PvP and which you detested in case you have multiple chars like I do.
For me it was not enjoyable unless I’ve played priest or warlock and most likely won’t be much for phase 3 either, main reason being that I’m a warrior “lover”.
Phase 1 had no interrupt as warrior, had no means to reduce the healing.
Phase 2 had no means to survive rogues that opened on me since I had to mainly wear leather and mail items to be “pre-raid bis” so I can farm the 2h axe from Gnomeregan. On top of that had issues against mages instant healing for 3 times the amount of damage I was dealing, had priests dodge like 3-4 attacks in PvP, had executes miss 4-5 times in row leaving me with no rage, had no rage because of absorbs against priests, had no means to reach players attacking from top of the walls at STV event and the list goes on.
I was able to “mitigate” some of the issues by going into alchemy so I could afford to pop a FaP potion for rogues, a rage potion for priests and so on, forcing me to go into alchemy so I don’t get broke over popping so many potions, however, that left me without a viable profession for crafting one of those epic helmets, belts, gloves that pretty much everyone could benefit from by playing other class. (Just like having blacksmithing on shaman is useless, since you can only craft plate)
And yes, I know I could have went and bought all the herbs off AH, but again, that would get me broke since farming with warrior is like hitting yourself in the … since you need to eat after pretty much every mob that’s same lvl as you, or sometimes even lower.
Now with phase3 I wonder how much worse it will get, I can tell for sure that the casters on top of walls in STV will remain there, now with every class getting more stamina gear it will be even more fun to manage the lack of rage, especially when you can get 3x dodges in a row on a priest (have 2x overpowers miss) and each time your execute is missing you end back to 0 rage.
I know it’s partly a QQ-ing topic, of me qq-ing about my frustration but I honestly would like to hear your opinion and would like to know about how much you’ve enjoyed pvp and by playing which class. I know lots of classes got a lot of instant damage openers without having the need to actually hit first to make it happen. Out of the 5 characters I’ve had at lvl 40 I could say for me personally priest was most enjoyable and warrior the least of all.
they ticked around 14-1500 hp after priest died.
