pvp classes qustion

Hi guys! I've come from WoW, too tired of it recently. Could you tell me a bit about valkirie, slayer and ninja? (don't tell me about warrior please, I don't like such class). I like classes with high damage burst for short time and decent mobility. Any advice about these classes? Differences, playstyle? I have liked the valkyrie among these classes and I would create it but as far as I'm reading the forum valks will get big nerfs at damage and backstab (right?) cd so I wonder if the class will be good.
I'm a pvp player and prefer 1v1 mostly

Comments

  • Warriors are the 1v1 kings. But if dont like em, i would say Archer or Sorcerer. After the Valk nerf they will be a little less popular than today.
    Archers have a pretty good stunlock and the highest 1shoot damage in game. Pretty fast mobility too.
    Slayers used to be amazing, but they re not so popular right now. In all the duels i am seing on VO, they always lose.

    Ninja mm, dont convince me. Yes they are a broken annoying class, but die very fast.
  • Slayer is the good if you want burst damage with decent enough mobility, but overall the class is at the bottom of the class chart since it's really hard to get good at. Valk is more of a "sustain burst" imo, since you have amazing pressure options and can easily CC someone with little effort. Ninja is the same, only a bit harder to get good at (not as hard as slayer however).

    In reality, if you want the most burst damage go with a zerk or archer. Zerk's entire kit is designed for burst damage and they're the kings at it, tbh. The only notable down side is that they have rather horrible mobility, but that's gonna be changed in few coming patches. I would say go archer for the perfect mix of burst and mobility.

    i don't really like ranged classes in tera, their mechanics is terrible for my brain. Zerker is too slow after playing a warrior in WoW so I can't play it in tera. The only classes I have liked are slayer, ninja and valk. But I think I need try a warrior.
    Could you guys tell me what makes the warrior so good in 1v1 as the guy wrote the warrior is a king of 1v1?
  • I just wonder if the valkyrie bs cd nerf and 10% from a skill will make the class useless or not - the only stuff I worry about

    Warriors in Tera: You can use them as tanks or as dps with the 2 stances they have.
    In PvP most warriors go on defensive stance, (tannk mod), to use block for some damages avoid and for cancelling skills animations also.
    4 stuns (Backstab, Cascade of stuns, Shout (dont remember the name), and coutering attack (only in A-Stance).
    Lot of staggers, and a good damage over time.

    Iframes... u can do roll with no cooldown, it depends on the "re", and u have death from above as secondary iframe. Also another skill wich name i dont remember who give u invul for some seconds.

    Knockdowns with Scythe and Reaping slash

    Fast attacks, fast movements.

    U can see lot and lot of Warrior duels in youtube. They suck at massive pvp, because they have little aoe damage skills. But in 1v1, as i said, if the warrior is at least decent, is the king. (Better if u focus gears and zyrks on attack speed than damage or crit)

    Cons: NOT to use if u have high ping as me. 200+ ping is enough to convert the warrior in a cancer to yourself with a lot of desyncs and the anulation of that precious skill animation cancel by taping block. It simply wont work if your ping is higher than 100.
  • Not much burst damage, but warrior is really good in 1v1's
  • Become a god at slayer and you will be fine.
