Swordsman dmg bad or good?

just saw a sword>pel>hop2 that took litterally atleast 30 sec to kill stuff (not exxagerating)
alot of the swordmen i see are like that :confused:
i dont even play swordman i play cleric and i can dish out some pretty nice dmg
ive heard dragoon can do a lot of dmg, but everyone says swordsman llate game is weak

  • thats plague doctor 0.o my future build :smiley:
    is all sowrdsman dmg like that???

i am honestly for u guys getting a buff.
asking bcuz friesnd wants to make a good swordsman dps build

Swordsman classes have an history of nerfs, almost all of DPS classes got nerfed, so i must say, swordsman classes = bad damage.

Not only that, but archers got pretty buffed, cause they were easily the weakest class in iCBT2, but IMC don’t exactly know how to balance this,

If they are going to do the same as in Ragnarok Online then you’ll never see a good class balancing

i see archer rank 7 classes as op, on tos skill sim they have skills that do a base dmg of 3k on a cd of only 5 seconds. and some guy said he saw a snipe do 75k dmg in pvp.

swordsmen got a buff idk if it will help much

wizards do good dmg

cleric dmg, see the video, monk is better though

Swords are crap at end game but the dmg isnt so bad as you think,the problem is the uptime in bosses because raw dmg it is close to rangers

It wouldn’t be so bad if IMC dropped the stupidly long cooldowns… IMO barb skill cooldowns are actually a pisstake, because the damage spike isn’t high enough to justify the long wait before you can unleash more skills, so you’re OP at first and suddenly you feel like a joke during dungeons unless you’ve got a dievdirbys on your team.

It’s not so bad against normal mobs because your damage is enough to kill them pretty quickly, but in a fight that requires sustained damage it feels like you begin to lag behind. I like the class too much to ditch it though, so I’m holding out for a class buff

Monsters on video are very weak.

the biggest problem about swordman is that they CAN’T focus on damage. as they are always in front line they need higher survival capacity so they put more points in CON than other DPS classes.

In dungeons, for example, they have the lowest damage output because they need to keep retreating to heal so they won’t die.
Some of they highest damage classes ( highlander and barbarian ) need to debuff enemies so they do more damage but enemies will get a lot of resistance to bad status at later levels.
Also, peltasta 1 for pve builds is a must and because of it they lose one class rank.
And there is another problem, GIANT COOLDOWNS!
