• • Witch Hunters=most useless class in PvP and RvR...what a weak class!

    For all of you who are knocking this guy for having an opinion, you may be overlooking an important fact.  He probably has just joined warhammer.  Like him, I joined warhammer a week ago.  The place is dead!  I am lucky to see 3-4 people in an evening when I am playing PvE.  It can easily be a 30 - 60 minute wait to get into an RvR.  When I join RvR, I am sure I am playing against a bunch of twinked up alts that y'all are playing.  Basically, I am trying to solo this game with a WE and I am having same difficulty as this guy.  I am taking shots at people and they usually have an invisible egg shell around their body that is soaking up all of the damage.  I am sure that the game is a lot easier if people would coordinate play and their roles, but pugs stink and guilds only want to recruit level 30+s.

    I am guessing I am going to quit playing this game relatively soon and I anticipate many of the new people who try to join this game will also.  I am guessing it was a lot of fun when it first came out, but without anyone to play with it isn't worth it.

     

    Please see my post above willa lso help WE a little. As far as low level zones go i agree 100% there isnt enough new players to keep low end game content alive.

    WE are actually the most hated characters. Again i will state that this isnt a 1 on 1 game.

    PS you cant twink characters in this game. This is due in part to 1. You gain xp for killing people which makes u level and 2. you are viable in each zone at any level due in part to bolster. If you are level 1 and enter a pvp area you are bolstered to level 8of 11 for teir 1. T2 is bolsered to18  t3 is 28 and t4 is 38.

     

    This keeps you high enough level to pvp without being destoryed. Its not just more health and a level, your skills are actually increased to that levels damage.

    Again i agree low level content is ad due in part to 1- no free trial and 2- no people re rolling new characters.

    That is it! I give up playing the witch hunter. The class is a joke...unable to kill healers, tanks, witch elf, magic users. Only thing we can kill is a SH and after patch 1.05 that will become much harder.

    What the hell were there thinking about when designing this weak ass class...besides the stupid fancy clothes?

     

     

    I have a level 40 WH and it is crazy easy to kill anything so long as u know what you are doing. If you picked a WH because you played a WOW Rogue and expect to sneak attack someone and kill them in 2 hits... this class is not for you.

     

    WH dont have alot of armor, but we do get a skill called "Get Thee Behind Me!" which reduces out damage taken by 50% for 15 sec and the refresh on this is 30 sec. So half the time if u keep an eye on the skilla s i do u take 50% damage 50% of the time.

    Another skill you should use is called "Silence The Heretic" this does 225+ damage and stops casters from being able to cast for 3 sec. This is a nasty skill to use on a healer use this after you have shot them with "Blessed Bullets Of Confession" which will reduce their ability to heal by 50% and its game over for a healer.

    I dont know what level you are cause you fail to state that, but what i will say is take a look at your Master Paths and find a good combo. http://www.wardb.com has great character tools for all classes and it will help u alot. When it comes to stats i went Weapon skill and strength. Weapons kill ignores armor and increases your parry, and strength ups your damage. I currently have 553 weapons kill, this increases my parry by 11% and ignores 45% of my enemies armor.

     

    Also at level 36 and 37 you go on epic quests which gives you 2 kick @$$ weapons. 1 called the Ironwind. This sword has a chance to proc (so far i find it procs 25-35%) for an additional 300 damage on top of your current skill or auto attack. And yes it does proc on normal attacks. I would use scrolling combat text add on from curse and u will see it, an time u see 300 pop up it was the proc and the proc is called "Concusion IX".

    The second item i got from the other epic was a Pistol called "Justice". Same proc rate (25%-35%) which removed -800 armor from target for 10 sec. That is crazy! Not only do i ignore 45% armor already due to weapon skill but then i can remove -800 more! Thats a huge amount. look at how much you have at level 36 no matter the class, minus 45% of your armor, then remove 800 armor points more, i can garuntee your hitting them -75% or more if not removed all armor.

    All i can say is learn to play your character. People in my guild cheer when they hear me coming. Do i still die... of course! Do i take out 3-4 before i do so... most of the time yes! And also please remember that this is not a solo pvp game, this game was created for group pvp not solo. So please take this info into consideration and do more home work on a class. There is not a useless class in this game, and they al have their weaknesses. But each classes weakness is made up by another class, which is why ill say it again, this is a group pvp game.

     

    Hope this helps!

    Ps - To those WH splitting builds between Blastics and Strength. Please stop :) you only get a bonus to maybe 5 skills which are your 4 executions and your normal ranged attack. the rest is all melee, so ignore balistics, balistics is more of an enginer thing.
