Wow I really thought this would be pl thread I'd pop in lol and go play al. The only thing the "mage" is op at is falling down. Far and away the lowest armor no dodge and low crit.
Either the op is a troll post or your slightly mad. Oh and this mana heal nonsense the sorc class dies far to fast to take advantage of it. Those that are using it in pvp have it to refill the one button instant win machine that is as.
Just my 2 plat
Let's go through a bit of wonderful gaming history:
If you were ever a hardcore WoW pvp fan, you would have experienced 13 (is it 14 now?) seasons of horrible pvp, where each season had an OP class. In WoW you have about 10 classes, and then each class can basically perform the role of a tank / dd / healer, so you have about 30 archetypes that could be OP each season. As you can see, that leads to a lot of BS happening every season. I'm sure you can look up great rants on how spriest was OP or warlocks were OP in season 4, etc. And think about how big WoW pvp was. You could be playing pvp full time if you were good enough. Yet Blizzard could not make every class completely balanced.
The point I'm trying to make is that even a big company like Blizzard producing the world's biggest MMO can't balance its pvp system because pvp is simply so diverse that a dev can't account for every single change and factor. That being said, I do think that the class system in AL needs a rework, such as a desperate need for a healer, but I do understand that pvp is impossible to balance unless you designate each class to perform one specific role. Mage could be cc/support, rogue could be dps, warrior could be tank, and then a priest could be a healer, so then you could only have one class doing damage (rogue), other classes doing minor damage, and then 1-2 specific healers. But that would be silly because in pvp there is no such thing as a tank unless he had about 50 taunts.
So there you have it, a brief history and understanding of the pvp system.
p.s. As a final note, if you are going to complain about something, offer some good reasoning otherwise no one will listen. It's easy to point out the advantages of each class without considering every other class at hand, so if you are going to offer reasoning, don't say "omgeee mage 25 second stun OP", say, "Mages are broken because they have a way of hitting a stun through a wall and guarantee their stun first in any engagement. So if they can stun first no matter what and then keep you stunned for 25 seconds then you can see how this is OP". Obviously what I just said isn't true but you get what I mean. Offer arguments that prove that it has no counterplay. That's what makes something OP.

If what you say is true, then how come the CTF & TDM kills leaderboards are not flooded with sorcerers. In fact, it is almost all rogues on the kills leaderboards. If sorcerers were the most powerful, then they would obviously have the most kills. Would they not?
Also, notice how in the PvP tournament last month there were no sorcerers that advanced beyond the quarter finals. It was all warrior/rogue teams. If sorcerers are so powerful, then how come all of the sorcerer teams got knocked out so early?
How about producing some actual evidence of your claims. There are leaderboards and there have been pvp tournaments. Surely your claims can be backed up by those results, can't they be?
Ah.. makes me remember when mages cried that rogues are OP in 1st two seasons. ..
Anyways. .. Rogues still 1 hit us many times... and are more tougher in season 3..
As an example. ... look at ipredator the rogue player. .. he is so good in pvp. . Very hard to defeat even with warriors maul..
Its just the way u use your skills... use them correctly and u will still be OP..

I want to be a smurf
But I hate lvling -_-
ONADE is overpowered. not mages nor rouges
• Azgauth • Warrior •
Capt. A: We need a plan of attack!
Stark: I have a plan... Attack!
Sorcerers aren't OP. Rogues and Warriors may have the best skills for protect of them.
When shield has gone the sorcerer is dead.
I enjoy a lot when a smurf is in my pvp team.... They are necessaries for winning!!!
From what I see on forum....
Mages are OP cause of stun and curse.... warriors are OP cause of maul and proc..... rogues are op cause of crit hit..... slag is op cause of stun..... samael is op cause of stun....
Dear STS, please delete the game and this would make everyone happy....
Hope you felt my sarcasm......
Stop complaning and play the game guys.... each class has his own power... but also his weekness.
Have fun and enjoy the game.
Oh geez, rogues will shake their 'butts' cause now it's turn for mage expansion. Thread title is lame. All knows smurf will fall first on elites, first in pvp. That is clear. Rogues says our shield is OP. No. You can Shot it wid Aimed and shield gone away. Rogues says Our Lightnin is OP... LMAO Their Aimed is OP... And that recover rate... Rogues says our Stun is Op... We need to have somethin OP LMAO..
Smurfs have great stun but...
- Low armor
- Low survivality (lower that rogue...)
Who cares we can stun if we r dead?
GF Rogues... We wait two seasons for that. Now You should sit tight and wait for another rogue expansion...
Im killed by envy of Rogers.. WTF
PS. Agree wid Paul.
Sorry roth I had to quote you to get my point across
@OP, pm me if you want to improve your technique against mages
@paul, not everyone is complaining that posts in these threads like me. Im not complaining, just sharing thoughts which can be heard by developers. Thats the whole point of forums. for community bonding and giving ideas to developers to make the game better - therell always be that one person who would rant all day but the bigger picture is most important. hope you understand
