DRK Spam in Frontlines

[ZXN]

Also years later and we still have no edit button. Shame SE is such a smol indie company

Errr...there is a edit post button though. It should appear in the bottom right corner next to the "reply" option of a post that you made.


-Edit-

You can't on mobile sadly. That option isn't there.

I have been informed that this edit post option does not exist on mobile, which I did not know, so I apologize for giving half-wrong info. But it does exist on browser I swear.

Thanks for the answers about PvP tuning. Here's hoping one day SE will remember PvP is more than only cc.

Oh, I didn't know that since I don't use Mobile. Thank you for the clarification.
I guess in that case it really is just a "Square Is Smol Indie Company"

You can switch to the desktop version on mobile to get the same edit feature on PC.

Resilience buff from purify needs to be longer and it needs to nullify draw-in/knockback. I've been chain-pulled by WAR's one after another for what feels like half the map. Doesn't matter if you purified, you're going with them.
Other than that, play a job with group CC and CC the follow up as the DRK plunges. Even as a lone WAR you can interrupt a DRK dive which leaves them vulnerable for a counter from a team that's semi-competent.

I think the DRK meta has led to many questionable tactics if not outright cheating. If you've tried to engage in the DRK meta, you'll quickly notice how often people react to your Salt Earths, Living Deads, and Plunges in ways that seem too perfect—almost like they know your moves before you make them. Even tonight, I lost count of how many times I got hit by a SAM’s LB or got Imp’d by a WHM right as I jumped before I even had a chance to drop Salt and Darkness. It's way too coincidental to ignore. I think some players are resorting to unethical tools to keep up with DRKs.

People will tag enemy DRKs and use their CC when they see them running. You're giving an example of a counter-meta, which goes against the case the OP is trying to make.

It's so weird how this game has diminishing returns PVE, but somehow it's an afterthought everywhere else. But then let's face it, so is PVP as well.

You design a functional PVP system you just copied from one MMO without understanding it. Then you abandon it, and then try to shoehorn in the MOBA concept because you have no idea what you're doing at all.

We know they can do better but they won't.

Skill issue.

Use the ability to break stun? Stunned again.

Wait, you get to survive the first stun?

Last night was rough. I can get out of 1. It's not that hard, but I got chained left and right. It was a joke. My whole team got yanked into a pile to be massacred. I avoided it after that, but it didn't stop my team from getting farmed. It's clear it's an issue if you wanna be cute "skill issue," but still, the amount of stun locking in pvp is terrible. It just makes matches a slog.

From a casual perspective, I'm done with frontline dailies. It's just not worth the headache. I get stuck with the dumb team vs. the 20 Dark Knights.

It's just gross.
