Sorcerer, archer and warrior are overbuffed?

    I think it's obvious when you see reapers and sorcs constantly getting frequent pentakills in every match. It's all skill!

    Lot of that deaths are stolen. Sorc/reap just land the final hit

    lol reapers are the only class in the game that are actually OP right now. Sorcs and Archers did get overbuffed, while Warrior actually got a needed PvP nerf ( Crit chance on scythe glyph does not work on players anymore ). However all those classes have weaknesses that Reapers do not:

    Sorc: Light armor means they get destroyed quickly when caught. Gets rekt hard by archers who know how to pick in teamfights. Has zero ability to survive a giga pull.
    Ninjas: Same problem as sorc.
    Archer: Doesn't have nearly as much AOE presence as reaper. Can be staggered out of charging which negates a huge amount of their pick abilities.
    Warrior: While very good in 1v1, In any fight above 3 players Warrior actually becomes a low tier class as they have zero AOE presence and are very easy to peel. If your CS or FWC team is getting rekt by a Warrior, your team is bad.

    Reaper: Walks into a bar. There's no counter.

    Reaper can only be realistically countered in a 1v1 situation against a Warrior or Lancer. In teamfights where reapers generally have support classes aiding them with kaias, cleanses, and shout buffs, the class cannot be consistently countered by any specific strategy as it has little to no downtime in its ability to spam massive amounts of damage and CC. Whipsaw alone brings more to the table in mass PvP than the entire skillbar of most melee classes. Even most reaper mains admit the class is overtuned in its current state.

    Light armor means nothing. Socerer has much more resistance than a reaper if we consider that he can absorve damage and even stuns. Reaper only has 2 shadow steps and the retribution crap that does not absorb all damage, though the skill description says that all damage is absorbed (we know it's a lie because some socerer skills do damage while you use retribuition).

    How do you say that archer does not have skills AoE like reaper if he has rain of arrows and his traps? The only reaper skills AoE are shadow burst(30sec CD) and sundering strike,.

    The only thing reaper owns is a high damage, but what class does not have it today? Her stuns last a little and you can barely finish a combo unless u have more than 46% attck speed and 60ms, while archer and socerer are 5 seconds stun and the [filtered] sleep. And I do not know if you know but anyone can get suport by buffs and cleasing brooch etc, it's not something unique to reapers.

    I created a reaper some time ago in MT and use an armor conflate except my belt. Archer has extreme traps that are easy to hit, not counting his stagger that is ridiculously annoying. His stuns last a long time and he always kills me with 1 combo, which I find absurd you kill a person with the same ilvl as yours with only one combo.

    Warrior equipped with nostrum plus dyed crystals eat more than half of 50% hp with backstab, without critic. Warrior has become one of the most stupid classes in my view, just be a noob waiting backstab load and you already were.

    reapers are still possibly the most broken and brain dead pvp classes lol and you are complaining about sorcs, archers and warriors?
  • MiskuChanMiskuChan ✭✭✭
    You can make this argument about a lot of classes, but the problem is that TERA pvp mechanics are awful now.

    If you nerf reapers, you still have lancer giga and rallying cry, warrior backstab, brawler ground pound, 40k kaias shield and 10 second GS lulwut? 10 seconds really?

    And much MUCH more ... Like whose bright idea was it to give archers invisible traps? Where's the counter play? How is this skill?

    There's so much wrong with tera PvP, it's impossible to point to a single class and say this is what's wrong now. Also let's not discuss the awful gear creep (RIP 3's).

    Like, if you had a game where everyone could touch someone and kill them, you wouldn't say one class is OP, you would just say the PvP is braindead and takes very little skill. Unfortunately that's the position TERA is in now, it has so many dumb mechanics all the skill has been sucked out.
  • @MiskuChan Pls. Everything counters something else in tera. You can't say there's no skill because it takes skills in one mech to counter another (stagger locking vs stun resist for example).

    Tbh some of the stuff on you list are actually allowed in PvP because they're not that braoken and take those away and you don't have that class (take away lancer giga you, dont have a lancer. Take away invisible traps, whats the point of a trap?)

    Stop blaming the game and get gud
  • I wish Emme can open a server with Old tera. With the original classes only. Even with the OP lancer, was the only best times of PvP in this game.
    The thing i love more from past times, the screen is not overspammed with AoE skills animations and effects, u have only the Sorc/Arch big Aoe and no much more. Now with all those effects of reaper, gunner, ninja, u cant even see your own character.

    Must accept it, Tera has changed and is not a PvP mainly game as before. Now is a PVE game with very low pvp touchs.

    I ll always remember back in 2012 when i saw the first Tera trailers... They always show PvP, an archer vs a zerker if dont remember bad in the Velik Arena. Wow, that look so nice. Then a Popori Slayer fighting other classes in a nice place. The funny popo slayer dodgin attacks... Amazing.

    How i wish THAT tera coming back. With the 8 classic Classes, and that old and nice smooth PvP, but with better balancing.
  • nah.

    rally was skill bm, sorcs still oneshotted u, and getting hti by a archer was a death sentence.
  • Tell me if this was not fun and nice!!

  • Tell me if this was not fun and nice!!


    LOL NVM. THAT LOOKS FUN AF

    not even lying, i miss that type of pvp. You win bro
  • nah.

    Haha yes and Zerkers too. I love 1shoot when i 1shoot any class with a zerker :p (But slow as hell)
    But was fun anyways, even with the warriors stunlock forever or inmortal top dps lancers.

    PvP was more simple. And player hands was noted the most of the times... Now all the new classes are spacebar heros, and in graphic sucks cause the large amount of skill special effects, didnt let u enjoy the fight seing what happen.

    I will make this post on suggestion forum :p

  • Says the reaper is the most useless class, son I invite you to play with gunner , At the moment it is the class more neafeada that there is, desync, much cooldown, very slow, little defense in comparison to the lancer or brawler that already they possess an shield OP , Although it is true that the archer kills you of 1 simple combo, the reaper can also kill you 1 combo, because I know? Because my main is reaper, I can kill the one I want without straining, if I catch him with my cable, everything will be finished for him , Tera is currently the worst pvp game ever seen, it does not make sense to talk about balance at these times.

    I can't really give you a serious response, without giga there's no lancer without ivisi traps what's the point in a trap?????????????????????????????

    That's pretty funny I can't lie.

    but lancer really doesnt have any utility if you take away their giga lol. they have almost nothing else they can bring to the table (7 second rally cry lol...)

    and there's no point to having archer "traps" if your opponent can SEE the traps and consciously avoid them
