Default Re: Back from a break, best pvp class now?

so if it comes down to ranger or a swash what are the big differences in pvp playstyle? ranger kites more and swash goes in for stuns and fast dps? ranger is better at ambush and ranged? if im with a warden would ranger be better since once the warden has them rooted i could shoot with arrows most of the time. also if im rooted as a ranger it would be easer to fight back than if i was a swash?

Sounds like you really want to play ranger. Go for it. Swash is better.

Swashies do (usually) better dps, cost less money (arrows cost so much), see stealth with their stealth, have a taunt to keep people off your warden friend, have a spec for a ton of HP.. it's just an all around better class. Roots break, and half the people are immune to it anyway. If they aren't they can be with a 10s potion.

Nature walk (a warden AA that your friend WILL be taking) makes you immune to root, snare, etc.. Basically a ranger is a GREAT solo class, and an okay group class. A swash is a great group class with tons more utility and a very very good solo class.. arguably as good as ranger.

I'm going to say illusionist all the way

I've seen what an illusionist can do, and it's not pretty. Control effects ftw on PVP servers. I imagine bruisers can put a hurting on them with close mind..but if you don't have an immunity to stifle, stun, root, and all at the same time...you're going to die to a good illusionist.

You can mez someone while you're on the run...then you have a solid 20-30 seconds that you can sit there and stack up all your debuffs on them, then unleash the damage and you can usually kill them before they can even get close to you.
