[Witch Hunters] Too much squish? or the right amount?

Post#1 » Wed Jan 13, 2016 1:35 am

Is it just me or are we super freaking squishy? As much as i'm actually enjoying this class I can't help but feel like we are too squishy for our own good. Fighting one creature its a 50/50 shot whether I get completely wrecked or not. I'm going to get to max level but I was curious if anyone else had run into this as well.

huge dmg potential(esp. from stealth)at the expense of being squishy is a fair tradeoff.

Single target burst mdps class designed to quickly kill high priority or solo targets, I feel that WH is in a good place they were one of the much better balanced classes back on live you target should be more or less down to 25% hp once your kd ends, if you play it correctly and pick your engagements wisely then you should have just the right amount of suriveability

MDPS in general need more support than any other archetype in order to function at their full potential. It's probably the worst archetype new players or casual players can play.

Witch hunters are very squishy they can't stand face to face with other dps and trade blows. They are pretty bad in my opinion because of it.

Its not the low armor that kills the witch hunter, but the lag and the lack of snare.

i thought it was quite universal in most types of games (mmo's all the way to mp fps games) that if you can go invisible and ambush people, you will be some what more squishy than other classes. as stated above thats the trade off. you are not a front line fighter, your an assassin no?
