Is the warrior class dead?

**ijl** · 11-18-2013, 03:09 AM

Greetings, fellow Arcane Legends players:

I've been playing arcane legends for a year now and have witnessed a steady decline in the amount of players who use the warrior due to all the nerfing that's occured throughout 2013; meantime Arcane Legends has SUBSTANTIALLY increased in difficulty. Don't get me wrong here, Im not trying to start a rally, however I have not seen any worthy builds or have been able to play any fun runs like the ones I used to be able to have back at the start of 2013; where I could run through enemies and feel like a legit killer while doing a level appropriate dungeon run. The warrior just isn't as fun as it used to be and I think that is the main reason why alot of your casual players have lost interest in Warriors.

Please, I'm open for all feedback, tell me why I should keep playing the warrior (any mods out there...)

( I didn't play Arcane legends way back it first started, so I may not now the old gameplay of this game but...)I think STS balanced the warriors so as not to make the game unfair for the other classes. And with that "balance" it made the game to be a "Team play" making each classes important for playing. Warriors- for tanking Rogues- for killing mobs especially Bosses and Sorcerers- for full support. Just an honest reply

Oh, so you thin warriors are underpowered. One question: ever play as a mage in PvP?

Not to mention warriors are quintessential for running hard core elite maps like elite undim fields.

I played the other two classes before creating my tank and I am quite happy with the scaling.

Warrior class...is not dead :/

Lol.

Warriors are the core of every elite-running party (excluding the time-runners). In PvP, your team won't survive long without a tank. They definitely are necessary!

Also, they are the only class in 1v1s (IMHO) that have almost 100% chance of killing mages and a fairly high chance of killing rogues. Dead? Don't think so.

Warriors have the best heal in the game! Of course we wouldn't be dead.

This is very strange for me to read, in my opinion: warriors became more powerful in every expansion. I cant kill decent warriors in pvp now, its more worse than in season 3 before all the sorcerer skill improvements.

No, Warrior is always alive trust me...
because we have high HP :P lol

I play all 3 types now and all have other playstyle and one does better in one map, another in other maps I think.

warriors isnt dead, it just make sense that there are far more rogue and mages in game. and its better that way LOL
u dont party with 4 warriors. u would usually party with one warrior in pve the rest are dps
funny how it works.. its really more of a players preferences.. a lot of dps.. but enough warriors to party for tanking

I get the feel that the warrior is the 'cleric' of arcane legends

1. we die the slowest
2. we heal alot
3. we keep teammates alive
4. we buff defense
5. most pet choices assist with survival

I was using a wizzard since AL season 1. Then on end of 2013 i tried making a Warrior.
Guess what?
its 10x better!
Warrior is good HP/Armor/Damage if u have good gears on. Mythic armor is a must!

I am not gonna defend warrior at all. In PvE warrior is far behind all classes.
Good players dont want warrior in Elite or time run also. Rouges and Mages can solo arena why would they need warrior to slow down fight! Due to recent HoR nerf it really destroyed full warrior party in Elites. With two good mages you dont need tank at all. Warrior damage sucks without mythic/arcane big time compare to other his classes.
This is too much for more little bit of +health. Give us proper dps spec with less health - dont mind playing warrior at all.

Warriors are a must for average parties (period). I have run into the issue that I feel unnecessary in pro parties (although I am asured [biasely by friends] that they want a warrior in the party).

Hypothetically a party with 4 mages using shield, click, fire, and ice all using kershals 4/5 myth and Samuels can run whatever they want without a tank or a rogue.

Ps: a warrior with low health and high damage is a rogue. its fine if you like your class, but try to see the benefits of all of them. We all started with common gear fighting stabb, and I'm pretty sure you wanted a warrior around the first time you fought bael.
