    TY everyone for the info, has helped a bit.

    DNC part aside, This still brings up an issue from DRK's that im seeing from multiple posts and in practice on OCE. DRK comp groups.
    How Frontlines works on OCE is, there are 2 groups of premades with DRK's and some stun jobs, im not sure which, The DRK's constantly spam macros placing down markers and chat commands to guide the group, you will see 3, 2, 1, in chat and then literally everyone from the enemy team gets pulled in, stunned and killed from full health near instantly, they literally just drop you regardless of job, including other DRK's.
    I have seen one of these DRK guides single handed wipe out nearly an entire team with his burst. And im not talking about a 4 or 8 man team.
    If you are on a team without a 'guide' you will not win, the 2 guide teams appear to work together, i guess they have a discord to co-ordinate the 2 different Alliances they fall on, the 2 guide teams will not attack each other more often than not, they will gang up on and pincer the non guided team repeatedly.
    If say, a crystal, is up, then they will go to town on each other but if the non guided team shows up, they stop and focus that team instead of each other. (Bar the few outliers who don't follow instructions or want to finish what they see as an easy kill).
    The sad part is, when these guides are not active, Frontlines isn't active, nobody on OCE will even queue up for the entire day and the moment these guides say goodbye for the night, that's the end of frontlines for the day outright.

    Its frustrating, but it shows a real issue with DRKs that they can pull so many people in and kill them with ease. I have been in the middle of one of these pulls at full health with my guard up and i still dropped in what felt like a single hit.

    I guess im just a bit bitter as a DNC, I see so many durable jobs, with high damage and in some cases even one hit kill moves or procs, while im not aloud defense, damage, nor even healing and only have a LB most people ignore lol. Worst part about our LB is, we dont even have to be stunned for it to be cancelled, just moved from our position, say by a DRK.
    Im getting better at zipping in and out and being opportunistic, but unless I have help, I'm not going to get anyone down, i just don't have the damage to do so while the enemy is also popping their heal everyone gets.
    I was told today that DNC never gets buffed because SE thinks its balanced, i fail to see what's balanced about DNC in PvP compared to, pretty much every other job lol.

    Still, as long as there's no DRK;s in CC, or i don't get 5v1, I can do ok as a distraction or crystal pusher. But that is all.

    From my perspective, every job got a scoop of icecream, they may not all like the flavor they were given, but DNC was given a scoop of yellow snow and told "Good enough, this is fine." I know thing's wont change, but well, can always wish they would lol.
