Swordsmen can be amazing in pvp!?

General Discussion

I want to begin by saying that I don’t main a SW, but I have pvped against many of them. There are many good pvp SW that are highly skilled with their mechanics, but their kit has one major flaw that renders them forever second class - mobility (not damage)

Another topic covered this before so I not going to explain it. What I suggest is that all SW gets a “hidden” debuff when hitting enemies that reduces movement speed. The way this work will be similar to archer’s Def debuff upon attacking. This debuff last only few seconds, but can stack up to 5 times, and upon the 5th hit has a rooting effect that last 1 second. This little change will do wonders for SW beyond any dps modifications would.

  1. SW now has a way to land their dps skills, regardless of build.
  2. Full tank SW are good as a CC machine.
  3. Builds that work with mobile multiple hits will be highly viable

There’s a reason Cataphract is considered one of the best swordsman classes for PvP.

Yeah but theres only like 2 swordsman in the pvp rankings in kr. one is rank 2, and hes a sw c3 cata c3 dopple. so id follow his example in all honesty

This does already exist, you just have to take Swordsman c2/c3

there is already such a skill to fix mobility but i think dispeller just fuks it up, shinboi has amazing skill to fix mobility issues and is very good in pvp in theory for that reason, +2 skills that give invis. the thing is that because its still melee and is owned by dispeller its not good. shinobi can teleport to enemy while doing huge aoe hit with long duration root.

Different mechanics, what SW need is a consistent slow. Also in am suggestin that it is innate for all SW build variations.
