PLD gets nerf'd but DRK gets a pass....

How can you make a DRK combo clap a whole alliance but lets focus on PLD cover combo gimmick. Get rid of the ridiculous draw in mechanic. Ridiculous that ONE DRK/DRG can pull an entire alliance in one shot and wipe them, especially when trying to defend a flag which FORCES the players to stand on top of each other on FL. Clearly devs are ignorant...or blind

Use your guard button. Stop standing on the flag. You literally don't need to.

I would recommend learning to play the game before pitching a temper tantrum. DRK is strong but you can play around it. You don't need *everyone* standing on the point, not even on Secure or Shatter. You need virtually no one standing on the point except maybe a tank or two if it's Seal Rock or Onsal Hakair.

If you get yanked in by a DRK or SMN, you should plan on hitting Guard immediately and trying to float your way out. Pull-in moves are usually just before people unload all their LBs and other big buttons into the pile. Due to server tickrate, you can't wait to use Guard until you see it happening, otherwise you get the buff too late for it to matter. You need to be hitting Guard pretty much the instant you see your character being sucked into a draw-in attack.

pretty ez
just guard or don't put yourself in a situation where you are funnelled into the mass pvp opener aoe nuke

the middle flag is pretty much a bait in onsal
