Amineo.8951 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Apparently it's bad, noobish and people should switch to Holosmith/Deadeye to have "high dps" in fractals/raids instead of this, I wonder which "top tier" guild pugs got that info from but it's probably a really bad one. God sometimes this game feels almost like real life with all these people... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torzini.1523 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Wot? Dragonhunter is GREAT in fractals, due to having ridiculous burst damage that makes it perfect for fractal content. It is also decent in raids (not top tier, perhaps, but that shouldn't matter except in speedruns). As long as you can play your role, whatever that is, and carry your weight with it, no problem. Those people sound like trolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunateric.3708 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 DH has one of the best bursts for any power class. The thing is (and it happens with every class) people get used to seeing bad players perform poorly and think it's because of the class and not because of the person playing it. I can count the good DH players I've met with one hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catchyfx.5768 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 MAYYBE its because DH is listed on SnowCrows only in Huge hitbox and not in small hitbox. :D so you know...on small hitbox it doesnt do dmg..word..:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepcuts.9740 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Without a real SupportChrono and a real harrier Druid at least, DH cannot keep up high dps for too long. I am a noob on DH, but with the right people pushing the right buttons, I can sustain ~25-28k dps . Too bad that most of the time, with the wrong people pushing the wrong buttons I can only do ~15k dps. Conclusion: without good support people, for me at least, dps goes down the drain.

Nepster.4275 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Okey, so let me sum this up: Dh can burst over 80-90k in fractals(chrono dependent, no spirits counted), hard to kill, lowcd on burst and the sustained dps is around 30k with major fckups even and afaik its good in raids too due to aegis share and CC´s This is really what Luna said and people are just too used to DH being bad(tho in fractals nor raids never was bad, or just idk about it) and they will call you bad for playing it. The same could happen with chronos too, i mean they coudnt even upkeep 6 boons, imagine what they are doing now, but people accept them because no one else wants to play chrono so probably who said to you all this was just joking(we all know i didnt want to use the joking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polvere.2805 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 It's not that DH is bad or the weakest dps ever. Great burst and simple rotation. But the simplicity of the class with the dragon word in it and the flashy animations attract a ton of new players that don't care about rotation and just mash buttons, place traps at random and overall have zero knowledge of the class. Results: After meeting countless of braindead DH people started to be wary of DH players as they are very likely to be really bad. Honestly i feel that the majority of players that i kicked in raid were DH players that messed up mechs, did lowest dps (If you are under BS you are doing really bad). In the best case we were able to carry them trough the encounter and kick them afterward. Worst case they mess encounter so bad that we have to gg. In reality DH is a really useful class to have on a lot of encounter. If i have a valid DH player i am very happy because i know that he can use his utilities for the group. DH is a good class. DH players tend to be very bad. Good players rarely play this class because of the simple rotation/design making it not really fun to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zealex.9410 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Up untill recently dh was weaker than other options but since the buffs it has recieved with the last balance patch its pretty competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I'm doing fractals I'm looking for 4 other competent players. I've never kicked someone for a class, only for screwing up mechanics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry.5713 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Is it that shocking to have anyone (especially in pugs) claim anything which is mostly untrue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turin.6921 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Some pugs always take time to catch up to how things actually work. Back in the days of the Condi Necro meta i was once kicked by a pug cause they believed that condition damage was useless in T4 fractals. Nothing new to that really.

Ericon.5104 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I recently swapped from holo to dh in fractals because the burst is actually better in the short run. Holo definitely has more sustained dps but a dh's burst is insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blambidy.3216 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Did he really say noobish should switch to holo? XD. No noob should suffer hand cramps from a class. Dragon hunter is fairly easy compared to rotations. And it’s actually a good class if people knew how to use it. I had a friend do a no greens on vg with me. And we was using his dragonhunter and was second on most dps. Ending with 22k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhaid Zhem.6508 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I've never been kicked as DH, or kicked a DH. Actually it's a very easy, safe and strong burst, but very very dependent to chrono. Why would they kick DH ? Why DH over "bannerslave" but without banner, or Spellbreaker unable to remove boons, chrono without a clue of the (very hard... 'sic') rotation... ???

Zlater.6789 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 DH is pretty much BiS for everything except raids now. Burst comparable only to Weaver, Holo and slb, bucket loads of defensive group utility, reliable cc, good survivability and enough quickness to cover the inevitable gaps in 5-man groups.
