but this one was funny :p
What is funny about it? Chasing a WL? His pet will brutal pounce and knock you down because its chasing you as you chase him. Zero chance to defend. So yes, its a knockdown on command. WL gets to run away from yet another fight. Just like all the WH/WE players, they get their jollies off killing people that stand no chance and run away from fair fights or ones where they might lose.

Cause wl is fun and can fill a role as aoe dps/ st dps/ or solo roam. It’s not the best at any of them but it’s great at all of them.

Before ppl sperg out about st wl, you have to play very careful even in scs just to keep the pet alive and stay outside of blob. Also , bis WE has a 3 second faster kill of training dummy compared to bis wl :)

I suggest you try a WL against geared regen witches, they should not lose 1vs1 to a WL unless caught out of stealth with important stuff on CD, high parry WEs with enough burst have the upper hand as well. In fact WE is way more OP 1vs1.

WLs are effective at dismantling squishy dps shamans and their cousins RSHs and it can be fun roaming but it will never be a top choice for it, that belongs to WH/AM for an Order roaming toon unless something gets nerfed/changed. A decent def magus should likewise destroy a WL.

WLs are great though as a versatile toon(if the pet AI doesn't frustrate you enough). whilst worse than we/wh for roaming around solo it's obviously a much stronger toon for group play, only second to slayers. It's the most well rounded mdps Order got.

Was just wondering why there was so many in the lakes - was thinking either roleplay or some new bug

Despite all the bla bla bla said, the only reason is:
White lion has a cute pet and you can name it!

Order could say exactly the same about Choppas and Maras.

A dodgy thing going on? Yeah, huge melee AOE range with unlimited stacking.

Normally there is a pretty even mix - just since the last few days its seems like its almost half wl hence the question
