Awak drakania kills 1300eva in 2 skills, so no good idea.

1300 eva is nothing when i have accuracy build with tons of human damage. Those drak who 2 shot you must be doing same on +310AP. nothing new there. AP scales WAY higher then DP brackets.

she needs a nerf since a few months now...its not even funny how much % of each NW guild now is Draka. They just have everything, movement, protection, heals, and the dmg is just unbelievable high...

Drakania Awakening does not have much protection. Most of her skills are slow and unprotected. This is how you know the people crying nerf never played her.

If they're going to nerf her damage, they need to make her faster or give more protections on abilities, or maybe a mixture of both.

People who cry for nerfs for things other people are playing that they lose to are the saddest people.

most people fight these fotms every day and their population is only increasing every day which is clear sign its overtuned.

when u have same classes overperofming over and over  and over again its not FUN for people watching that crap from their normal classes.

It's purely anecdotal crying because people lost to something and they feel like they lost because of the thing, not because of how they played. It's also the pettiest path to take after that outcome too, because instead of asking for their own thing to be better, they want the other thing to be worse and for the people using it to have a bad time. It's shameful behavior.

Yes, this game is janky, and has stupid systems like RNG CC. Yes, the balance can be pretty scuffed at times. At the end of the day though it's still sad that people will blame anything but themselves for why they lost. No, it must be because their class is overpowered, right? Nobody wants to have any introspection or drive to improve their gameplay. They just want other people to be handicapped and brought down to their level because they perceive it as someone else having an unfair advantage instead of considering for even a moment what they could've done better or that they simply just aren't as good as they thought.

Whatever happens though it doesn't really matter to me. I have Street Fighter 6 now for PvP that's actually good. I just find crying about other people's characters and asking for nerfs to them to be shameful and embarrassing.

i will be honest. I main drak since her release and awak since awak release. Drak is not an easy class to play in PVP, ofc you will get few catches sometimes like everyclass but she is heavily unprotected with long CDs. swap from pre-awak to awak is also very bad. 

If you guys never played drak or want to reroll to drak then first know this 4 things.

1 Pre-awak is very slow and the whole kit only has 3 CCs, 2 of them are totally unprotected and animations can't be cancelled, 1 is just stiffness and is very slow, just weapon swapping will take the duration of that whole stiffness because it's Cswap -> Dragon blood weapon or hex blood weapon. which can only be switched by Cswap -> Space cause awak drak has 2 weapon thus awak also has weapon swaps within the kit.
2 knowing pre-awak CC is 70% of time useless, we only have 1 protected CC which we get from core. Every single CC we do, is very risky because it's unprotected and animations can't be canceled, Storm Maul is also unprotected, it is protected when moving but unprotected when CC'ing and ofc, hitting someone good with thier class with storm maul is like tapping a TET Tungard ring on 80FS because the skill's hit box is tiny af.

Drakania isn't tanky like Valk, warrior, guardian, berserker... Her tankiness level is same as Sorc & Lahn. If you haven't noticed, mostly slow classes are very tanky and scale good with DR; Guardian & nova for example... But because drak is slow on attack speed and lacks protections and tankiness, she makes up from that tankiness with instant heals.

Mostly used 3 heal skills her. Doombring (10sec CD) will only heal if her HP is less then 50% and will not heal more then 30% upto 50% - 60% HP, same goes to Dragon Blood: Sundering Roar (15sec CD). The 3rd heal is from pre-awak, you guys might see it as a drak bubble(Markthanan's scale) which has 1min 20sec CD and will heal till 70% max HP.

Your only salvation, Your one and only win comes from your pure damage. Forget CCing anyone else when they keep showering CCs on you. All you can do it play safe and throw smalls CCs on everywindow or spam damage. You will notice that fighting against a grab class will result on your death unless you keep moving constantly and try to stay protected. You will mostly get CC'ed in SA & iframe and you may think "WTF LOL" but know this that even the iframe skill is unprotected at start of animation and when you are slowed, You will mostly fail to instant cast Dragon Blood: Sungering roar, which results in longer animation when she raise her hand then do the roar which btw, u can't cancel so you will most like get grabbed or get killed during that part, u can cancel it after she starts the roar animation with storm Maul but dragon walk, and iframe is a bad choice which will result on you getting CCed cause those 2 skills are unprotected at start so there is a gap and it's very slow when u are slow debuffed (-20% slow debuff is enough to slow u down and kill u).

I dueled 5hr today against awak sorc, ngl 70% Death... 30% of time sorc doing mistakes so i got her Dancing Coffin Coffin Dance GIF - Dancing Coffin Coffin Dance Funeral -  Discover & Share GIFs

So guys, if you want drak to get damage nerf and think what will happen to class or else with damage nerf, Drakania must be compensated by giving her more ways to CC, giving her faster attack animations, giving her more way to cancels skills animations and lowered CD on skill and also making dragonwalk into a complete 1sec CD iframe (atm: 2sec CD SA).

A sorc...  seriously? Sorc... The one class who can iframe for a while an you probably dont know how to read the map im assuming.Sorc vs drak if your struggling you have a bigger issue , litterally just use shift +q  well they are invis as they are are most likely going to use the block jump function. Otherwise keep distance as she consumes more stamina than a drak.

Wtf kinda comparision is this anyway.The only thing simlar between the two is damage in a simalr amount of time. One has far less movement that is burst still slower than awaken drak but better control of movement skills , then you have drak that can heal faster than alot of classes can damage her if the drak has proper gear. Well also having the best escape tool of gliding with SA out.

Drak an sorc you cant even compare an from what i can tell your just being to aggressive so the sorc is able block jump you or shift+ lmb when you become unprotected. Also in mass pvp drak far exceeds awaken sorc.

Also 1 sec cd  iframe not even sorc has that gap at the start and distance is minimal compared to the skill your choosing. She doesnt have a grab either. 

Edit: imma mention the bigest issue is the damage in mass pvp for drak with her healing abilities. Classes that heal on damage arent % normally. They are based around hp per hit which drak should be the same.

The class you should compare to is awaken Lahn. Why arent you? She uses more stamina than drak simlar ccs(before you say grab hers isnt instant like draks), far less damage and her movement is no where as quick protections are fairly simlar if not lahn has less on top of not having draks heal . I think you need to look at her as she is the closest out of every class rn to drak.

No way you just said this. What kind of sorc are you fighting against? a 12 years old sorc created 2hrs ago? You saying awaken drak "FAR" exceeds awakening sorc just show how little you know about sorc. even if you main sorc, it seems you have some MASSIVE skill issue.
