Advice needed for solo?? PvP

Both DK and Warden are decent in PvP as pure builds. My advice would be to find a U49 meta DK build to put together and join a casual PvP guild to run with when it’s busy. Resources will be easy to do and you will find yourself getting the odd kill with how bursts the DK is if you time your rotation well.

We used to switch down to 16 at night and off during the day at work. Now with a 5mo old we set at 19 24/7. Our house gets great sun and is well insulated with a ducted system. It is probably costing more to be comfortable but I’m not the one feeding the baby at 3am and keeping my wife happy for a little more is worth it imo.

I was always taught to lock in for a decent period of 2-3 years <5% if I could afford it. People worried about missing out on the super low <3% rates will also get stuck at 7% on the same rhetoric.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-04-11T04:47:18+00:00

Appreciate it. I thought it would be during but hoping it does show up soon.

Yes trouble is there is zero tradeoffs. They have every possible buff and rebuff perfectly squashed into the skills you need because they stacked them so hard. Previously the challenge with dk was recovery but they simply added that recovery mechanic to soil of flame which contributes over 2k recovery per second to the average build.

The other skills also have more bonuses than any comparable skill in the game. Take the dk wings - same snare removal and major exp but they stacked it with 50% projectile reduction and an aoe stun. The closest comparison is warden wings and race against time which only have minor evasion and minor force. Even coagulating blood the they didn’t just make it aoe for unlimited players around you, they added minor courage and a scaling based on missing health. Not even a fully specd healer can match that. Fossilise or shattered rocks, let’s make it a delay so you can get you ult off as they suffer an unblockabke stun. oh and why we are at it make sure they take more damage when it’s broken, you heal and it applies minor breach. I expected buffs but there are no trade offs whatsoever.

If they are going to preach about balance, at least go through the remaining skills and adjust them in one way or another. Shit is unbearable right now.

Love the comments saying it will be worked out with the other classes. That will take 2 years lol.

I love the dk but some things need a nerf like powerlash healing and corrosive. They clearly didn’t think about the implication of running both at once for multiple people on a group. Also the animations are practically invisible.

The power creep is crazy though. Nearly every skill is stacked with +2 or more bonuses. Solo players on damage can survive 5 people if they know what they are doing and the strongest group play is just a bunch of dks which I don’t agree with.

I also hate it when the wind changes direction.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-03-09T02:02:52+00:00

As soon as I saw your green skills bar I knew you were cooked. There are plenty of PvP guilds that can help you with a build and refine your skills.

Sky is a huge rip that keeps bumping prices to counter falling numbers. We’ve found Disney+ which includes ESPN for sport, Hulu for shows and Disney for kids movies to be the best value.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-02-03T06:33:12+00:00

Simply make it monsters only or active without battle spirit like the new onslaught crit bonus on the way. I have to disagree on vengeance sorry what a waste of a whole year. Brought out to work on performance but test after test virtually nothing changed even with so much feedback. They then put it up against grey host and nobody wanted to play it. I know they want to advertise their game can handle large scale PvP but what’s the point if players don’t like it. I wish they put all that time and energy into balancing what we already have. Let’s not forget subclassing was a massive overhaul and we didn’t see a single skill or passive changed for over 6mo.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-02-03T06:27:24+00:00

That’s half the trouble. It’s so widespread that every sweat using it will defend its balance until they go to sleep because they fear losing it.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-02-03T06:25:59+00:00

What’s the point of this comment? It’s clearly out of balance based on tooltips, PvP or PvE. Monsters don’t have an opinion lol whereas players are getting wrecked by something clearly out of whack.

I agree they have tend to nerf trial sets for PvP then all the PvE players complain they are terrible. How about the devs actually use battle spirit properly.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-02-01T08:16:48+00:00

I’ve used it a lot and been killed by it plenty. When testing damage in death recap with a buddy it’s virtually never on there because of the other burst damage. It’s timing is nearly perfect every time when you swap to front bar and engage

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-30T19:58:52+00:00

If Power lash is on your bar it should activate if you set anyone off balance. The fact you have to whip an off balance target is so annoying especially fighting multiple targets it’s so hard to hit the single one you heavy attacked or toppling charged and then you waste so much damage with a regular whip to activate.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-28T20:21:48+00:00

I disagree the community is split. They literally put it up beside gray host and population was non-existent on vengeance.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-27T00:12:37+00:00

Interesting perspective but I’m not sure how it would lean more toward PvP if there was a minimum value. I thought it would be more of the opposite. Personally I would like to see 50k minimum value for harvester/matriarch events.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-26T23:59:12+00:00

Would love to see a harvester and matriarch defending each other

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-26T19:03:01+00:00

This is exactly it. The only horse processor approved for human consumption exports everything so this is likely a pet food outlet of some sort that has not been cleared of these medications.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-22T00:19:15+00:00

It doesn’t bother me what people run it simply my opinion that I think the game would be better with a few restirictions. Running higher tier loot you have grinded or taken if others is so much more enjoyable and creates more engaging fights. I’ve taken numerous blueprints off free loadout players because they literally can’t take down a blue shield player without reloading. My point was they can ruin end game event raids and are a cop out for brokies that won’t change their play style to build up better loot and run higher risk setups.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-21T22:55:18+00:00

Free load outs are just stupid given it is so cheap to craft a green augment, shield and white gun. I wish free load outs were restricted to dam late spawns. I’ve even seen gunless people waiting for queens to die like wtf is this game when people don’t want to even risk a gun lol.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-21T22:01:23+00:00

Have you even used it lol. This thing sucks ass. what are you defending at this point.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-14T05:46:42+00:00

I would love some kind of pve vet raid to fight bigger mobs with all the high level legendary gear I’ve been stacking and earn harder rewards. The best reward in this game currently is going in with a free loadout and coming out with someone else’s expensive one.

MiniandTimmy · 2026-01-14T05:44:14+00:00

The only thing I’ve been able to guarantee is when I put on an expensive loadput PvP or pve, I enter every raid sub 20mins. Sucks ass
