Ok, so me and friend organized a 4v4 last night choosing our own friends. I rounded up a all privateer team, while he brought a wd,( witch doctor ) swashbuckler, himself a musketeer, and a privateer. ( were all lvl 50 ) We dominated the match. It was no challenge, we buffed our companions to the sky. The one privateer on there team just could not compete with us.

Thats when the arguing started. My friend dared to say "privateers need to be extremley nerfed". He even went so far preach his opinion on why KI should change something about privateers buffs in 2v2, 3v3, and 4v4 combat specificly.We argued the entire match, of course we won, but he made excused about how "your barrage spells are overpowered, its infinite range can hit us at the beggining of the match"! I responded saying "with there weak damage, its completely fair". He complained about our critical buff as well, and our absorb spell. He did have some good points though. An all privateer team is fierce.

The only drawback to an all privateer team is its damage. Although we have buffs, we sadly have no direct damage buffs. ( critical buff doesnt count cause its not a direct damage buff, and i'm not gonna count the will buff ) It would be nice to have a, say, plus 25% glove fist damage for 5 turns to all companions close to you. That would be a great series.

Anyway, I think a all privateer team is overpowered at all. We are basically short 4 people cause we dont attack. But I know in the future, people are going it complain about us. People complained about life wizards in w101, I'm sure it wont be any different here. I just hope KI doesnt look to close into the nerf button.

On a side note, What class do you think is at the top of the food chain in pvp?

1.Musketeers. There obstacles are annoying, and they can trap you in bombs. And KI said they might make them invisible.....can you imagine? There range poweres are nothing but good, They deserve the nuber 1 spot.

2. Swashbucklers. There damage is just so much. There low health and armor/ resistance makes them very easy to kill though.

3.Privateers. There not the best in a 1v1, so i put them here. Our buffs are nothing but amazing, but have easily exploited weaknesses. Kill, one companion, we just lost 1/3 of our damage dealing.

4.Witchdoctors. Witch doctors are good and all, but i seem to defeat them easily. I usually just go full on attack on there avatar, and thats that. It might be cause i'm privateer, I need to do more research on this school.

5. Buccaneers. You guessed it, buccaneers. I could right an entire post about why there at the bottom of the food chain. They have VERY exploit-able weaknesses make them easily defeated. It would help if that had an aoe, I have some good ideas for them that I might post in A later topic.

Not that this applies to anything, but I think Bucc > Swash at LEAST because Bucc tanks Swash hits and gets to attack with Vengence Strike. and since swash has low health, I think we all know who would fall first. and i'm not just saying that 'cuz I am one.

Leo, Lvl 65
Trustworthy Cody, Lvl 11
Flint Jones, Lvl 7

My reply is buccaneers are op I admit, and also a privateer can have over too hundreds dodge so musketeers can not compete with that. Swashbucklers think they are op but try again I beat swashbucklers all the time. Their dodge wont matter to me and once my buffs run out all of their companions are dead. And on the musketeer topic the cant trap you if your smart. their traps are not to even trap you they are to slow you down. Musketeers are very good at the beginning of the match. Then only swashbucklers get killed by the musketeers accuracy. Mental note I know why buccaneers are under powered. First off is their accuracy de buff. What is the point if your main epic is vengeance strike. And buccaneers are mainly the only class who end up using their base attack. so it kinda pointless. Oh and on the witchdoctor note they have the highest damage. That was just my reply to your quote

Swash is the only class that can beat bucc, and that does it the most. "Tanking" is nothing when you're hit with our magical poison and bleeding damage. Of course, strategy and everything is taken to account but swashbucklers generally beat buccaeneers more.
