Mindgames?

PVP Battlegrounds

Am I understanding this correctly?

  1. it does a bunch of damage up front
  2. any damage I do with the debuff, heals the priest
  3. any healing I do, actually just does damage to me instead

How do we play around this? Is it simply a case of doing nothing while the debuff is on me?

You’re a DK, so you just get something like 30 seconds of straight up immunity to shadow priests right? Kill them during that.

There are far more broken covenant abilities than the dispellable mind games.

Hope that abilities like this don’t get designed anymore.

If you can’t stop it, remove it or mitigate it. Yeah, CC the priest if possible or just do nothing.

Mind games only lasts like what… 5 seconds? Just stun/cc the priest

Thank God this is a slow meta where you won’t die in five seconds while you do nothing.

I don’t believe AMS will remove it (if it behaves as usual), so attacking the priest will still heal them. Ofc, you can AMS the cast.

Bro your a dk you have anti magic shell, anti magic zone, asphyxiate stun, mind freeze interupt, ghoul stun, and thats just what you can use to disrupt a priest during one 5 second ability.

Literally all you need though is antimagic shell and your like 100% immune to all priests damage. Just stand there and kill him after

  1. DK isn’t my main right now, check my level.
  2. This is the BG forum, not the dueling forum. It’s more problematic in a group fight when you are taking damage from multiple sources and you need to self-heal to survive.

Yea too bad you dont have team mates in a bg.

If thats not your main, post on that one then and we can tell you how to play that one.

I know. It’s not like I’m ever fighting some guy 1v1 and a SP rolls up behind me and mind games me. Never happens.

Monk. in a 1vN, if Karma is down, I just use my mobility to disengage. SP is zero issue in a 1v1 for me on my monk.

Maybe you should go back and read what I said.

If you can’t stop it, remove it or mitigate it. Yeah, CC the priest if possible or just do nothing.

The doing nothing part is a problem in a 1vN. That is why I use my mobility to leave.

Dude, you are a flat out idiot that needs some serious reading comprehension work. Answering the guy and giving him advice is not complaining.

2 secs is a long time in SL. Really many times you have under a sec to react so you don’t go 100 to 0.

It’s hardly an issue in any scenario. Mind games can be dispelled. If you’re in a 1v1 without a cleanse then you just CC. The only “issue” with mind games is your ability, or lack thereof, to notice when it’s on you and react appropriately.
