Slayers are bad?

edited September 2017 in TERA PC - General Discussion
I've been really enjoying the Slayer Class but im just getting unmotivated with all the negative stigma people attach to the class.

Are they just that garbage and not viable late game?

Is there anything that the slayer class can bring to the table that other classes can't or do all other classes outshine them...

    Dunno I seen slayers in dungs in DW with amazing dmg and wonder survivability. It was like god mode. Also seen opposite. I think everything us possible depends on who is slayering)

    They are bad compare to other classes, but again player's skill is a great factor.

    But what I noticed since I play all classes, usually low to mid gear. Slayers needs perfect rolls, maximized crits, means at least 20+ crit inner, but recommended is +24 if gonna run hardest content, so it needs more effort and golds and more RNG to be in your favor, but you still can get unlucky and see so many white attacks.

    BHS is too dam stupid, I mean aren't we all playing Tera? why a good system like Talent system that balances classes are not coming to NA?

    Well stupid is a kind word for BHS these days.

    Slayers right now are fairly weak and outclassed for the most part, and they don't really bring any utility either. They are very dependent on randomness, too, as their core skills Heart Thrust and Overhand Strike rely on resets. Their signature buff In Cold Blood's increase modifier on Ultimate Overhand also fluctuates between each usage. But assuming everything aligns, slayers can be up there with the top classes.

    That's not even to mention the new passive that will be coming over in a few months. It will allow Whirlwind and Eviscerate, on critical hits, to reduce cooldown on their most powerful skill, Measured Slice. This passive also will cause any Overhand Strike and Eviscerate hits to reduce the cooldown on Whirlwind. This will obviously increase damage output significantly. Also increases Slayer's AoE capacity immensely.

    Play what you want.
    The problem would be on the player but not on the class. For your own sake ignore some players.

    thanks for the heads up everyone.
    i got to lvl 30 and it was so repetitive. no real challenge as a slayer.
    I just deleted my slayer and decided to play gunner.
    Shes more of my play style.

    If you think Slayer was repetitive at lv30, wait till you reach lv65 on Gunner. Lmfao!

    Gunner, at least before their big buffs, was one of the hardest classes to master. I'm not sure about after the buff, but it should be similar.

    they are bad. and no, it's not "all" about skill. what happens when two people are at the same skill level? then what does skill matter?
    some classes are just better than others.

    to say they are not viable is false, though. fortunately as awful at BHS at balancing, all of the classes can be used for all content just fine. People were even doing scxm with multiple slayers as the dps. there also is not many cases of people saying "i won't take you as dps because you are playing a slayer"

    Gunner wasn't that hard to master. Even before the buffs.
