Searching for a high ping DD

  • Hello everyone,


    My ping is around 100 ms , I wanted to play a Berserker or a Brawler , but the Zerk seems to be a low ping class and the Brawler is a tank class and I never played a tank in a mmo . So I wanted to know some DPS class that might be playable for me ,besides Slayer .I prefer to play a melee class .


    Thank you :)

  • Well, no class is decidedly good for high ping. But I'd actually say Zerker is one of the classes, where you can afford a higher ping. Apart from that Slayer might be an option for you too ^^

    Wtb no downgrades on gear, tyvm.

  • Hmm, the only thing you REALLY need good ping for, is the unleash - but it's playable with high ping. Valk, Ninja, Gunner and Sorc all requires fairly good ping, because they're heavily reliant on quick spells and stacking up to bigger spells, so they're quite hard to master in general with high ping.

  • Sorc is playable with higher ping. Valks works too because most of her skill have a high cast time. U'm playing on similar ping but never ever play warrior like me ... but well it's my main so i play this class. Good ol days where my provider wasn't that shit.

  • Didn't know that, haha! From my own experience, I felt like Valk and Sorc was really sloppy with high ping, but maybe I'm just not experienced enough to utilize them correctly, in order to do the combinations correctly with a higher ping thinking - in any case, berserker can be recommended with a high ping, if nothing else!

    Sorc one of the worst dpses in game with good ping, and you say he can be played with high ping??
    how much dps you want to do 1m/s ??

    Explain me how a channeling class like sorc is that ping dependent?. Meteor, Nova, Arcane Pulse are all skill which have casttime. And casttime is always nice for higher ping player since there is enough time for the next skill input. Ofc we can count lighningstrike which is somewhat spammy but everything else is just fine. i myself play with highping and i nearly dealed the same dps as my warrior back in VM8. And my Sorc only had VM7+15 .. my Warrior VM 8,5 +15. There is a huge difference in playing with highping as warrior and sorc. Nobody can really tell if a class is viable on highping or not if you never really played with high ping all the time.


    My List from best to worst


    Zerk (Outside of Rampage)
    Sorc
    Brawler
    Lunar Dancer (perfect dodge little bit tricky)
    Slayer
    Ninja (Autoattacks on highping are cancer .. and autoattack is important on ninja ->Cooldowm refresh. Also slowmotion Burning Heart not really nice, Hihg Risk to glitch through bosses with jagged path and fire avalance)
    Archer (Rapid Fire heavy ping dependent)
    Gunner (Burstfire heavy ping dependent, Timebomb > HB > BF Combo almost impossible at 150+ ms)
    Lancer + Warrior + Reaper are the worst. (Fast combos, also have quick Chains to cast certain skill faster, high risk to glitch through bosses for warrior and lancers)


    And i played every single class over a long time. And i can say that Zerk, Sorc and Lunar Dancer are nice for higher Ping players.


    Also OP Ping is around 100 ms which is still playable at all. Not perfect but atleast he doen'st have 0,5 sec delays between every skill. Also he prefer Melee anyways so Zerk/Lunar Dancer is the way to go.
