I play a lvl 31 Mystic on a pvp server and basically you gotta stick with other people since we're a very defensive class and have very little offense. I play with the same 1-2 friends every day so I rarely solo. But I have killed some pks by myself. I seem to do good against rogues and some fighters but mages usually own me. At lvl 31 my only real dmg are 2 DoTs and my weapon. I think Mystics could use a boost in the damage department. My main lvl 50 in the pve server was a Fury and boy did they have nice everything.<div></div>

<div></div><p>My daughter rolled a Mystic on Nagafen (at my suggestion) and we duo with my Wizard. We haven't tried 'offensive' PvP and we're always jumped, of course, while engaged with a MOB.</p><p>I will say that the Mystic does seem well suited for group, but not solo, PvP.</p><p>In our case when we get jumped the attackers have two choices - Try to take me out and eliminate the DPS but allow the Mystic to heal or take their chances on beating the Mystic down (which takes a while) and hope my nukes don't drop them.  It's made for some interesting encounters.</p><p>We're going to go on the offensive this weekend though. Will be curious to see how that goes.</p>
