warden/fury - fury sucks?

Duskwo · 07-30-2007, 11:37 AM

I cant help but notice that all of these posts claim wah wah wah, wardens are overpowered. Well I made a warden, I wanted to heal and nuke (even if they werent too strong!) because I didnt like the way my inquisitor was only decent if I took the battle cleric AA line. Lo' and behold I hit level 10, quite excited I open my AA menu . . . MOTHER FREAK! warden is a [Removed for Content] melee healer too? Maybe Im not coordinated enough, but I hate meleeing and healing. And in pvp? I like to stay in the back and hit stuff with owchness.

So. . . what about fury? I see jack about them on the forums. Are they super squishy or something? Please tell me they are not melee healers. But are they one shot kills? I quit my necro because every scout and his mom just BLAM killed me. Inquisitor just isnt fun, I like the fact that plate mitigation + my AE mitigation buff + battle cleric makes me freaking HARD to hit (57% mitigation, woo) but. . . I want to nuke stuff. How does a fury stand up to warden/inquis? How bout dps?

Good healing, great DPS, non melee, and see stealth at lvl 20. Sounds to be what you are looking for.

I never fought a inquis yet on my fury, so dunno about them.. but a melee-specced warden can beat my fury easy with 50% power left while my fury is all oop.. at level 37 atm.. I dont have problems against most scouts tho (sometimes if they get jump and lucky on stuns they ofc beat me).. but with see stealth this hardly happens

with my inq I hate having to choose what I want to do. If I melee, i dont have the power to heal. Freakin sucks it up like nothing with those CAs. Even with battle cleric. Im in the AQ armor, and wisdom items, so i dunno, my level 23 necro has like 400-500 more power than me at 27. but man do I have a F#$Kton of hp.

I was always under the impression that Wardens healed better than Furies but did less damage. Obviously with the opposite being true for Furies. Also, you don't HAVE to go melee as a Warden. The Movement line (or whatever it's called) is fantastic and your group will love you once you get the anti-root/knockdown ultimate.

On my inqy, lvl 28, I do both and have power to spare? Im usually the guy with the most power left after every fight we used to have in group vs group action.

well not to sound rude, but good for you. I dont. And I have the best stuff I can get for free, aka quests. The only thing I've managed to buy is some awesome 2h that does more per auto attack than my CAs lol. Yaulp is a constant drain on my power, even took the +5/tick power regen in combat thing. In hopes it would counter the yaulp drain. Dunno, Im always outta power tho. Specialy in groups who pull and pull and pull and pull.
