What is the worst class?

Random DK thought:

Why not just buff DK base damage and reduce DK zerk damage?
Basically instead of:
Zerk 30: When HP falls to 55% and below, Damage increases by 100%
Make it:
Zerk 30: Damage increases by 50%. When HP falls to 55% and below, Damage increases by 50%

That way total damage increase from zerk is still 100%. Tier ranking of DK at bosses where they CAN zerk does not change at all. Tier ranking of DK at bosses where they cannot zerk that good gets a bit better, but still is worse than Pally/Hero, but thats offset by better party utility than Hero. So Heros/Pallies dont have to complain, overall nothing changes except DK arent a joke at endgame bosses when they cannot zerk.

 

Gonna have to disagree because we need to raise the ceiling for drks not the floor.

 

LOL, u sure Drks cant zerk at PB?

 

As much as I favor the idea of boosting DKs (because they actually require playing the game), there is a conundrum that we run into in trying to do so, which is that the ceilings for all warriors are basically set by each other. If DK ceiling is raised, then so too must hero's because what would be the point of playing a hero if DK did the same damage while also bringing HB utility to the table? And if hero's ceiling is raised, then so too must paladin's because what would be the point of playing a paladin if hero did the same single target damage (other than being pigeonholed entirely to NT) while also doing much more cleave damage? And even if the ceiling for all warriors was raised and the gap between range and cleave lessened (probably a desirable move unless cleaving is ever made relevant in bossing), though warriors as a whole would be better off the relative position of DKs in the meta would be unchanged.

One could ask that DK ceiling be raised but still rest beneath hero's but the fact of the matter is that hero's ceiling is already only marginally above DK's (~within 5%, give or take) so not only would such an ask would be almost entirely insignificant but it would also make playing hero even more moot than it already is, if that were possible. The real issue is of course that there is simply not enough to distinguish hero and DK from each other; they excel and flop in pretty much the same content. If, for example, hero's enrage skill was made a party buff, then there might be a justification for at least matching hero's damage, if not exceeding it. Perhaps other lateral changes could be made as well to better distinguish the two, like making DK's stance 100% and having its Achilles be better.

 

the real buff. stance 40?

 

Chemistry

 

Physics

 

Why not buff Enrage? It's completely not worth the skill point investment right now because it doesn't stack. Also makes the class have something to look forward to post lvl 150-155 range after maxing Brandish, ACA and Stance.

It's +26 at max right now with an uptime of 4 minutes on 6 minute cooldown, bring that up a few points +30 to +35 range.

 

Your question is answered here

 

it's time to make a Bucc...

 

as a person who voted for bucc & plays bucc, if you really wanna play bucc do understand that this poll is only accurate if you're planning to leech/skip 1st, 2nd, 3rd and suffer for 2/3rds of 4th job.

 

buff hero plz

 

Well.. i kinda agreed with you. I already have a marauder lvl 102, a bit washed, have 8k base hp rn, hes retired rn because i dont have enough money to fund him, so im playing on my archmage to properly fund him. And i must say, brawler and marauder was by far the most fun class i played since i started on legends. Him and F/P mage.

 

Interestingly end game heroes are decent to a degree in low man pb squads and theoretically should be able to parse 10m+ on statues and 3.5m on body.

It’s just all the end game heroes out there are clowns and don’t know how to play their class properly to parse 10m+ statues.

11.7/1.056=11m

DK's aside because to play it properly in statue you need corsair level of mechanics, no end game hero with a perf wep should be dealing sub 9-10.

 

On a DK 7m+ is definitely possible if you're jumping to get iframes for stuns. Doing it on DK is still definitely harder than hero/pally though. One problem is that crusher is a good bit slower than blast/brandish so it's hard to consistently react and another problem is that if you heal before jumping and then get a miss then you have to jump again to get back to zerking.

 

Another significant factor in the numbers is how individual squads approach the statues, and how they balance left/right splits. I believe there are still some squads which have range kill Solomon first before heading right, leaving the others to dry and deal with lower efficiency with drs while they literally afk kill rex/right bird in 4.

Endgame/well controlled Hero is definitely capable of respectable numbers, but the risk:reward ratio just isn't there when you can pack another afk nl, which also helps in the left/right split.

 

Would this fix by any chance also cover bosses using skills off CD immediately in general, e.g. nib spamming its short cancel skill?
