Is there any help for not just being a dead target in PVP?

Played Secure last night and I noticed another 2 common mistakes:

1. Attack main Outpost in group
2. Do not know how to use Main Outpost’s defensive mechanism

Currently, Main Outpost is most secure location if you know how to use its defensive mechanism properly. You will be able to 1 vs 2 GCs and annihilate them both with ease. Attack enemy OP is suicidal.

Currently, due to short sight from SE; Warp is not only unlimited, short cast and it is cast able during combat. Once you step out of spawn area you gained 15s immunity. It takes only 2s to reach main Flag with mount so you have 13s immuunity duration. All you need to do is warped in group and all run to main flag area and use aoe moves and your Summoners AOE stun to lock targets in the area. Recast warp when it has 3s left to again 15s immunity again. Repeat and rinse and enemy will drop like flies.

Another thing.

Most people tend to target people with a "target closest enemy" bind.

If you're out standing in front, you're gonna get bopped.

When you -DO- get targetted and the damage becomes overwhelming, you want to run to your backline or break line of sight with a wall or something to break aggro (get out of melee and casting range) and potentially force people out of position.

Don't just run back and forth in front of the enemies, wasting all your pots and your healer's MP without breaking aggro!

Basicly no. Get a pocket healer if you are a Melee. Dragoon has been op for multiple Seasons now. If you play alone you are dependand on where your team goes. You play jobs wich are "balanced" towards 4v4 in a 72 people environment. You simply have no Tools for "big plays" as some would call it. You press your 4 damagebuttons and soon as you notice more than one person focusing you, you gotta retreat or you die. There is a rare occurance where the people with the green symbols press healing instead of their dps button in wich case you have to determine if this healing is enough to keep you up until the targets that focus you are dead. Hint: it is usually not the case.

Before healers now all jump at me: i played healer a long time, yes also in the upper Ranks of Feast. It just feels that most current Healers just join as such in hopes of farming some commendations. Overall Frontline is just in a bad state, there is a Reason it only opens a few hours a day if at all. Now people will jump at me: "there is not enough pvpers" Well guess why? Because its drop dead boring. There were times when 72 opened 3 am in the morning. Heavensward that is.

Have a good day.

On Primal, I believed Frontline is available from 12:00 PM to 3:00 AM EST. So yeah, I thinks it is your data center
