Chopper Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Hey everyone, Just coming back to L2 since 06-07 for the drop of Classic. I got on the live servers to get my feet wet and so much has changed since then. My friends are joining me tomorrow at the release and we're all curious to know what are the metas at PvP. We used to play Gladiators and Tyrants but I've read some people say they've lost their edge. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'd hate to make a character and put time into them if they aren't gonna be able to compete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mages: SPH: Great damage/Silence/CDL/AOE skills; Sorc: Good damage/Cancel/Great AOE skills/ SPS: Great casting/Cancel and AOE skills. Archers: PR (probably the best archer due to hex and fatal counter (low CON and survivability); SR: Great atk speed and run speed but smaller range; HE: an archer in between. Also, OLs are great in mass pvps (debuffs) and WLs have great stuns and added skills for pvp in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Tyrants and still pretty good and with the added dagger skills they will be good in field pvp. Probably not sieges though like any melee char.

Reecy22 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Old School from what I remember was Hawkeye the PR then SR Spell Singer Then Necro and Spell Howler Sorc had fighting chance with some help when he was doing Mana Flare but that didnt last long since the cost kept rising Tyrants and all daggers pretty much held the next spots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenreir Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 there's no such thing as "best melee class" since every single class has its pros and cons. in the end, it all depends on CP build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were 2 different thoughts. Tyrants are still pretty good. With the dagger skills added (shadow step and hide), dagger classes will be good in open field pvp.

Linnies Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 DA is best PVP melee class lol. In group pvp at least you can be annoying, while other melle will sit there rooted/slept/dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
