CAV is too strong

For some reason my screenshot is a little smudgy, but I hope it is readable still. The top THREE players on the RIGHT team are CAV. They have literally carried their team some rounds, outscore anyone else on their team and have a lot of kills. This is not an isolated occurrence, they have been playing CAV for a while and they continously yield similar results. Granted, they seem fairly good at it and probably have very high level builds. Yet for a class that is so poorly implemented into the overall game design as it has no counters, consistently delays, and is literally zero fun to fight against, this level of strength is absolutely unacceptable. Also, it was raining this entire round.

In my opinion CAV should probably be plainly removed. If it wasn't for the historical precedent, no game designer would ever think of putting such a class in such a game. If CAV has to stay, which is understandable, it should not be a higher than top tier class able to carry teams. Any amount of CAV is detrimental to the experience of the larger playerbase, a high amount of CAV is disastrous. The grumbles on the server speak for itself. There are already a number of threads created on the subject, one was created as I was typing this.


I just hope to draw attention from Tydeus or San about this situation by going all General Discussion and I hope they understand something should be done. There are many, many ways to nerf CAV, feel free to discuss them. I don't reallly care how, as long as a nerf is done.

stop whining you basic bitch

Jesus. Maybe we should get rid of ranged too, huh? That doesn't seem like it belongs in this nelee fighting game.

Also this is not a general topic, it is a chamber of tears topic.

Pretty offensive that this thread was moved to chamber of tears when the other threads whining about horse archers were not.

This thread isn't suggesting anything to improve game balance, or promoting intelligent discussion, its just a guy whining about cav being OP. Most definitely a chamber of tears topic.

My suggestion to OP: get a spear. If you don't want to get a spear, stick around teammates who have spears. And if you don't want to stick around the team, learn how to fight cavalry with the weapons you do have. Cavalry's lack of maneuverability at high speeds makes good footwork all you need to beat them, even if you're using a shortsword. You'll suddenly find that cavalry isn't very much of a problem at all.

HAHA..trying to draw parallels between a cav player that can kite forever while dealing damage and a cav player that has to put themselves at risk to deal damage (except against newbies or people with no awareness)

Cav might be a strong class, but its nowhere near as cheesy and lame as a HA or HX
