New player, Give me the best PVP profession and why

[King Slayer.9671]

Hi everyone,

 

I love PVP and I tried PVP with my power soulbeast ranger. It went as bad as it can get....

 

There was one class that kept on mauling me, he had like a whirlwind type of ability and was very very tanky. Unfortunately, I could'nt see if he was a warrior or a spellbreaker..

 

so: I would like to know the best PVP profession.

 

Gameplay I like:

 

Pure DPS with high mobility or insanely tanky with good CC + damage. I don't like to support.

 

Thankful for your help ! 🙂

Sounds Like Ranger or ele (good dps high Mobility) and Warrior (CC and tanky)

The best pvp class is the one you practice most in pve. Once you learn that class and it's abilities, go test your might in pvp. But befor that no class will make u good unless you practice  it first.

And this is why we have kitten balance. People want to be litteral gods but will complain when someone else plays that god-like class smh.

1. Make nine characters.

2. Unlock all elite specs on each character.

3. Read forums to see what everyone’s currently screaming to nerf.

4. Play that.

Wintrader

Also gizmo-seller is good, but salaries go down recently and you have to make a new account every 2 years.

Hum, all classes are one patch away of being god or garbage. Just play whatever you want and be aware you gonna be facerolled like first 100 matches

for me best pvp class would be meta in competitive but also performs well in ranked

for example, defense tank warrior is meta in competitive currently,

but it has little play potential in ranked plays, and it will get frustrating and hard to climb.

 

currently ele is best, because scepter cata is competitve meta and performs in ranked, while also having 2 support builds for switch up

 

but of all time, in long term, thief is best, highest competitive meta uptime, and performs well in ranked carries.

second place is engi and rev, both always favored in ranked, but overall competitive meta up time not as high as thief

Vanilla necro: Press all buttons all the time to g2/3.

 

Good way to learn map mechanics before learning when to press buttons.

Necro is the most noob friendly class.  And most of the skills aint wasted as u use them and u may accidentally peel for someone or open a kill window.

This will happen on nearly any class you select now. Granted, some might be a tad easier to play than others though soulbeast ranger is not among the hardest classes, depending on which build you played.

and this is your actual issue: you lack class understanding and knowledge. If you can't even discern which class you face, you most likely lack any and all ability to know what that class can do.

the one which you enjoy/handle the best and have the most favorable match-ups against as many opponents in you bracket of skill.

Unfortunately that also means you have to know your opponents class to begin with.

Long story short: don't expect to immediately skyrocket pvp skill wise or that some class will magically catapult you to some insane skill heights. The ins and outs of pvp is:"know your opponents".

That said, many players are in the same boat as you, as such the direct answer would be: pick a class which is as confusing or skill demanding as can be to your opponents. This can include short and simple to setup burst windows (many players are bad at reacting fast), confusing skills (clones, stealth, additional lifebars, immunity skills, etc.), or strait up just pressure (players make mistakes when pressured). This will get you part of the way towards gold but eventually you will have to "get good".
