Double DoT from Tactic+TTH = big dmg numbers - K/D = Leap making it possible to stay on target and Execute lowlife enemies which Mara can't due to no mobility. It really isn't that hard to see why WL is ahead on the leaderboards but at least try to see behind the stats and look at the class as a whole. In the case of SC (who the hell even plays that still?) I'd imagine it's clueless players facetanking WL burst without detaunts while refusing to kill the pet, wouldn't quite say SC is a goldmine when it comes to discovering highly skilled players - or fair matchmaking in any way.Brighteluden wrote: Sat Jul 18, 2026 1:56 am
Really depends on how you look at white lion,Just about every scenario I've been in white lions are topping the K/D in most cases while topping the damage charts not just that it's not fluff damage, so while I get the pet is a big component of the WL and it can die, let's not kid ourselves and assume that white lion is in a terrible state, also it being a not so great class I see the class in top weekly/monthly kills quite often as a melee character that doesn't have amazing AoE like choppa, essentially despite it's shortcomings white lion is quite strong for what it is, sure in warbands it might have in shortcomings, and btw mentioning the loner spec, yeh it's terrible, cause the lion is doing way more than 25% of your damage plus everything else it has to offer.
Also no idea what kind of smallscale you've experienced but from what I've played the pet dies within 2-3 globals after being spawned in a 6v6 .. maybe in random NA times scenarios it doesn't which is why I mentioned that any experienced grp will just focus it down.
In general I honestly struggle to find the core statement in your post. Loner is terrible in WB, so what else are people supposed to play? Revenge? WL isn't as weak even though objectively the class has nothing besides a channel AOE and a Leap, so do you have any thoughts to share as to why it's better than I make it seem?
No arguments, no sense or logic, just a "no u" after being proven wrong and also getting clapped ingame. Classic.
