Tell me what my skill would have to do with being hit for 2200 plus by a regular melee hit? You do realize how much haste swashy's stack up and everything right? Within 2 seconds 8k worth of damage and about 3 interrupts what skill overwrites that?
Faabio its obvious you have never played a healer. Do me a favor go give that a shot and see how it works out for ya. If it were that easy trust me I would do it. When all the pvp was relegated to KoS yes I could turtle up and heal myself and occasionally outheal their dps. Thing is when your nonstop healing your not doing much damage even if you have procs galore. Secondly your mana wears out after awhile. Thirdly they have traumatic strike and torporous strike which slow down my reuse and cast times. Fourthly 8k in the time it took the swash in my screenshot to do 5k damage I would have gotten off maybe Hibernate which I have at master 1 in pvp it maxes out at 1500 ish heal. With no interrupts I could have also gotten off a dire salve which in pvp does about 600. So I could have taken roughly one more regular melee attack. Super!
LFG Yes your right there are classes that can give a swashbuckler a hard time indeed and Shadowknights are certainly at or near the top of the list. I don't necessarily think nerfs are in order or anything just maybe a leveling of the field. Sure I am calling out swashbucklers but thats because I feel I have pretty much a zero chance against them anymore. Is this post biased of course it is if I was in qeynos I would be bitching about some freeport class. Its not like pvp is balanced by any means in eq2.
If it turns out that its only my class or my playing style I will gladly adapt or deal with it depending on the case. It just really seems to me that they are extremely overpowered. I would love to be proven wrong to be perfectly honest.
