Drogoz is useless

[zackyleR]

He is not mobile, he is not tanky , he has slow DPS
Everyone can kill him easily but super annoying and mobile (skye and evie ) or op ( kinessa ) completely destroy him

Messaggio originale di BossGalaga:

Since you said that my first game of Paladins didn't count because it was against bots, I just played my third game of Paladins, again as Drogoz, partied with my friend who is a L7, against players, not bots.

11 kills, 5 deaths, 2 solo kills, 3 streak, 1 multikill, most eliminations and we won. I still seem to be doing pretty well. Didn't seem "useless."

Edit: And I completely forgot I had a jetpack too! Didn't even use it. Go figure.

Do you SERIOUSLY think 11/5 is a good score?

You missed my second edit:

Just played my 4th game of Paladins, partied with my higher level friend, against actual players, not bots (sent one of them a friend request, you can't friend request bots), playing as Drogoz.

I did a bit better this time.

31 kills, 7 deaths, 3 solo kills, 9 streak, 1 multikill, top multikill, most solo kills, most damage, most objective time. I did use my jetpack that game.

Did I do good that game?

he can one shot the enemy tank instantly giving your team a huge advantage

Drogoz is literally one of the best counters to Skye. I don't know what you're doing.

Shoot
Your
Fire Spit


If my team is decent, as Drogoz, I can easily get the highest damage of the whole game.

His start build sucks though.

Two Cards I like:
Masterful: Level 2+
Hitting an enemy with firespit reduces cooldown, so shooting it for the AoE can get you that second high AoE + Knockback attack faster. Card has a 5 second cooldown, though.
So if you have Level 4, and you hit 2 Champions with the boom, you instantly get FireSpit again.

Thrill of the Hunt: Level 4
High skill cap. You actually have to get the kills for it to work. 1 Kill at Level 4 = Thrust is instantly cooldowned, keeping you in the air and with bonus damage.

My last game, when my hands crapped out and made me look like an aimbotter, my stats were
51 Eliminations : 13 Above the next guy
8 Deaths : Lowest of the match
13 Kill Streak : Highest of the match
19 Elimination Streak : Highest in the match.
145k Damage : Second Highest was a Viktor at 99k

I'd show the video of the last 3 minutes where the streak came in, but I don't want to make anyone sick...one Dragon Punch was really, REALLY...gross looking...

[mikemike1239]

basically any character with fast projectiles beat him after he uses thrust
he should have a card that gives more hp or gives him a dmg reducing shield after using thrust

[A Man With Half A Horse]

Drogoz is great, having lots of fun with him now. If you can aim well with the launcher and time your abilities well then your good

Drogoz is all about area damage and precision, i guess you suck at both?

[Beaker]

Drogoz is awesome.

[Deadbubble]

Drogoz is far from useless. While he lacks the single-target damage potential of characters like Skye, he makes up for it by being incredibly mobile, dealing high damage, and most importantly, dealing damage in a very large area. When people are grouped up on the point or cart, thats the perfect opportunity to rain down rockets. The fact that he can hover also makes it easy to get past most shields, and makes him a more difficult target to hit than most.

[Chiki]

Kinessa is not op she is actually considered underpowered but she can easily kill a dragoz tht is not flanking her and flying.
Drogoz just flys really slow

[GrgoljBlaster]

First time plazing Drogoz I had 39 killstreak and pretty much carried the game.

All characters are balanced pretty well. Its more how the team is build and how they support each other. Any toon can be OP or underpowered depending on your team make up, or the other team make up. The first time I played Drogoz I got 19 kill streak and 40+ kills only a few deaths. Done maybe 3 more rounds with him and got maybe a 9 kill streak max.
Now that Ive played most non locked toons I tend to choose Viktor, Pip, Fernando in that order but sometime choose a random one. Based on my play style atm those guys I can at least play okay even in most bad matches.
The only thing that I can not find a counter for are these teams with like 3 shielders in payload pretty much always 1 shield up and 80% of time 2 :(

Messaggio originale di Nyx:

Drogoz is not a single target DD, he's all about area damage. Which has two benefits: clearing out objective zones with ease (blow everyone off of the zone with your right click, then finish with Q) and the fact that most people buy defense against direct damage.

He's just not as good at killing targets solo, which is why you might claim that he's underpowered.

Weird, I soley focus on stray evies, skyes and bucks.
His near 1k damage helps catch them off gaurd.
Stray viktors get killed fairly fast too, Drogoz is also good, as you said, against point targets.

The lava spit (If its slow) + a rocket takes near everyone off the point
