RIFT Open Beta 1 - Tolgon - Dominators are kinda... Overpowered.

[kamacost]

i like how he qq in video "frapping this for nerf" about the dom.. but then NO ONE dies on his team for like 3minutes cuz he is healing like crazy...... >.>....... hellllooo kettle

[ocanator]

Necromancers are even better, I can 1v1 people who are a few levels higher than me

[altruisma]

good stuff

[MithrandirofR]

haha, you thik this is annoying? i play vk and i can suck your whole mana in 30s on this level. you want heal w/o interupting? no. this is purpose why classes like dominator and vk exist

[Darkevian]

@TheLeimone I agree with this. Sabs are way too OP for PvP, and so are Riftblades with their Flamespears (I played a Riftblade myself)

[Darkevian]

I gotta agree somewhat here; those Dom CCs last for WAY to long compared to other class CCs. The Transmogrify CC lasts well over 10 seconds, and you are unable to do anything, and are susceptible to attack from anyone. As a Champion, I have a Fear CC, which is SUPPOSED to fear surrounding opponents for 6 seconds, but it definitely does not last that long. Within 3 seconds, they are all back to target me, and sometimes with no healers, I can't do anything.

what is your PC cpecs

[VGSensation]

Mushroom mayem?

You aion guys yeah?

[tolgon]

@VGSensation Yes, EU Perento.

[VGSensation]

@tolgon Ah thought so, I remember Raidou told me you would try this out. Did you enjoy it? Will you be playing live? What server?

[Koshak87]

Nice vid, ty. Ward/Purif/Sent? But that qq theme...maybe its not the balance issue, but more of an issue, I quote, "someone knows how to play his class"?

Besides, to instacast polymorph and really get that mana draining and control stuff going Doms have to put quite a lot of tal pts into the tree, and bear in mind that while they are at it this makes them almost useless for anything else. Why didn't your teammates hackslash them asap, so that you could heal them normally?

[tolgon]

@Koshak87 The point isn't how to counter it, I know if I went in with a full group instead of just me and phirefly we would have less trouble but this doesn't change that almost every pvp group MUST have a dominator or they will most likely lose against a team that does have a dominator.

Insanely imbalanced mana drains and constant CC's should've never been implemented in the game, 50% healing debuffs are enough of a counter to clerics.

MIRI AKA ANDY IS A FUCKING MASSIVE LOSER GG THX N1 BB

[Grimsby12341]

why not get a dominator yourself? CC is CC if u have no counter you can get boned but id just focus the dominator first :P

[hazroth]

further more what I see is a massive gap in OP heals at higher levels

[tolgon]

@hazroth just because someone knows how to play his class doesn't make the cleric OP at higher levels... You can go insult and call me all you want but in the end this is gamebreaking as it is right now and you won't see many clerics around if this stays as it is. There's plenty healing counters like 50% healing debuffs from both Dominators and Champions who nearly apply them on EVERYONE they attack as it refreshes with each crit.

[kcburgess1]

@tolgon Its not gamebreaking, get someone to cure it.

[hazroth]

all i see are a bunch of idiot pvp'ers who leave the healer alone to heal a warrior....CC classes and healers are the ones i take out first. Your OP of the Dom class is because you suck at team dynamics. The dom has not dps and its soley there for CC'ing healers

Squirrel tag is key here ;)
