CS damage/pvp

i know that CS is equalized but CLEARLY, some players do a ton more damage then others.
can it only be because of good glyphs, pvp zyrks, crystals and buffs/charms? because i have all of those and i try to setup my character as best i can but even so, i get hit so much harder then i hit back in CS sometimes. is it because of the pvp gear stats?

    While yes glyphs and dyads can help, they don't really make you hit that much harder(compared to correct none dyad crystals). The problem could be whatever combos you are attempting or lack of back hits. What class are you and what crystals are using?

    glyphs, pvp zyrks. estars, random endurance debuffs.

    damage can look bigger if the person doesn't have crystals, and it can definitely be higher if they don't have a belt on for whatever reason.

    what armor crystals should you use in CS and zyrks?
  • VenpaiVenpai ✭✭✭
    lucky crits, back crits, self buffs, crystals, glyphs, priest buffs, mystic auras. all of these are contributing factors.

    even though it is equalized, some classes have it better than others with the gear they got slated with.

    4 relentless blue niveots. though i like to swap out one with a blue niveot that allows me to take 9% reduced damage under 50% hp. (i forget what it's called) some people go full relentless and that's a personal preference. but at least 3 relentless.

    zyrks: entirely up to your playstyle. some people like crit ones, some like endurance ones. healers like healing ones. i personally use the old pvp ones from pre 65. on my dps exclusively, i use healing for my healers. there's also some older green ones that reduce pvp damage. no idea what they're called.

    red crystals are different from class to class. i typically use a savage niveot, focused, one that gives me mp for attacking a player. and the other one is really depending on my class. if i use my reaper, i use a cruelty niveot, which poisons people when i get a crit on a kd. but on my ninja i don't use that one because i only have a single kd move.

    honestly, the red crystals highly vary between the classes, so you have to look up the one for your personal favorite ones to cs in.

    (Quoting on mobile not good)
    I would suggest pristine indomitable greens for all pvp on healers. Your survivability is much more important than healing output.
    To OP this can make damage difference if you're hitting a healer with these versus one that does not have.
    edit reason: tried to fix the quote bbcode, didn't work

    well i usually have premades that peel for me so i don't usually need them. again, that's my personal preference. ^^

    I think, it's just lucky back crit and pvp glyph.

    From my experience it's knowledge. You have to buy/get all glyphs and use dryad fused crystals, not just simple niveots. Also every class has a highly increased damage output upon a certain combo.

    Also the good damage dealers know their limits and know where their healers are operating. They return to their healers and refill HP before going into battle again.

    Standard crystals for dps.

    Savage , Forceful , Salivating , Brutal/Cruel or furious.

    Armor- 3 relentless, 1 Grieving pr Resolute

    Accessories - Pristine Indoms or Pristine Griefing zyrks.

    Anything else and you're not going to do well. Keen if ur crit sucks.

    Gd luck.
