Is Dreadknight op?

[MavericMC]

I just witnessed a dreadknight shred a full armor and full hp slayer in a few seconds, even a mancubus cant do that. To survive that berserk mode, you need to be invulnerable for about 3 seconds but the worst part is that you can build up berserk very fast so I think its fitting to nerf the berserk power a bit.

It can be deleted by quick switch spamming the ssg and balista for two seconds so I'd say no.

It has increased speed and armour, so if the time is right it can obliterate a slayer fairly fast, especially if the player is skilled.

No it is not. It is clearly defined as a high risk high reward. You can die very easily as Dreadknight against a good slayer.

Asking for a nerf to Beserk is a HUGE NO. Please play against High Streak Slayers. They will demolish you. You need this much damage. Trust me. Some Slayers are so freaking ridiculous that it is not even fun or challenging. Running in a straight line of course will get you killed. You have tons of mobility, use the meathook and much more to escape.

Same applies to the slayer, from the matches i played it seems balanced enough for me.

[MavericMC]

well you guys have a point.

Ok I just got really pissed off fighting one and may have changed my mind lol.

The melee locks onto you and from a distance. Sometimes you just can't escape it. Plus they removed the shield so you can't do anything but run.

You're stuck either trying to kill him before he gets his Berserk, or trying to stay airborne while he has Berserk.

I also learned that during berserk mode, you can lock on to the slayer which makes it almost impossible to escape even with the speed boost, and the dashing ability

Yeah. The way it jumps at 3000 mph if you have above 150 fps and gets stuck mid air, then glitching to the ground is perfectly captured in how ridiculously unbalanced he is here.

id are real pranksters.

After fighting him a lot more against more skilled players, I can safely say that he is broken because of the auto lock on + the range of the melee attacks. You simply cannot escape unless you are lucky. Auto lock on range needs a massive reduction.

It is more annoying to fight than the Pain Elemental and that says something.

Slayer is overpowered when you swap weapons properly.
demons are slow and cant heal more than once per minute
as a demon you basically autolose against anyone who either runs around until you get bored or ballista ssg cannon ballista ssg's you

Dread knight loses sight of the slayer alot because the camera spins around and the slayer clips all over the place and the leap is buggy
and slayer can just run away, since the teleport hit has a cooldown
Saying that, dread knight is the only demon that can catch up to a slayer who runs away constantly.
