after gaining more pvp experience, i realized the difference between each class, and their strengths and weaknesses.
All classes is capable if being very imba, the only difference is how long does it take to kill you.
Elemental lord can kill you in 2-3 skills. 1 mistake and your finish, On the other hand, their life is short too.
How do they do it? : they will blink in, freeze you, and inferno you to death. If your not dead, finish off with freezing sword or anything else. Lvl 5 blink CD is 3secs if im not mistaken. If they missed freezing you, skill CD is fairly long, 20-30secs(i cant remember, will check with my character later)
Force User - Very tricky as well. You only need to worry about 1 thing, their "stoptime" skill cooldown. If you know the timing in your head, enclose distance, and start whacking. If their stoptime skill is available, you gonna hailat, just sit there waiting to die.
Paladin? Omg, i really give up hitting paladin, with all their blocks, and evasion, all you can do is, run and wait for his block to end. As soon as it does, he is nothing. (can someone share their experience on how to actually counter a paladin???? 1v1 is almost impossible)
Priest ? - Dunno, never met a good one yet. Only see them throw totems and run around lol.
Bow master- takes same amount of time as the other classes to kill you. The only difference is they do not need to combo that much, just stand a far, run around and use skills. A very good bowmaster will not let you get close to them.
Swordmaster - So far, i've encountered 2 types of SM. 1 with lots of counters, the other with lots of skill combo. It is very annoying to fight the one with counters. You hit them once, they counter you with a very very painful blow(2-3k dmg). The other, 1 mistake and your dead - They will just use the skill that does like 30 hits, untill you die. Oh btw, you see them glowing blue? run...
Mercenary - The only class that normal hits you to death. Normal hit, + skills in between, your character will never get up. See their body glowing in blue? Run....
Acrobat - very tricky to play against. Usually takes about 6-10 skill chain combo to kill you, very bad in Big PVP rooms(8v8). Take's a little to long to kill, but its very rewarding when you do , because it takes skill and timing to do it right.
Tip: If you want to survive in PVP, you MUST have
aerial evasions, and counters. If you do not have these, you will just be chain skilled to death, and you will rage quit

Priest needs to be good also... priest combo aint good... so casting down their wand have to be accurate and clever... fight with a priest 1V1 shouldnt be a problem.. all they have is the 100% block for few seconds and heal... the big X and maybe some lightning.... they usually normal hit you to the ground and then big X... so if you avoid that... they're dead... priest are not really meant for 1v1..
pala and acro haha.... fighting pala takes up time... no matter how fast it is once the shield is casted... run... there's no use standing there watching him.... i remember casting my parrying stance.. the 80% block... and he casted shield... we two just stand there watch... - -
acro aint hard for other jobs but not for swordsman... other jobs just have to remember NEVER hit them to the air... because they can counter and dominate you back... swordies have skills to keep hitting them to the air that's why it's hard... we need block to finish them off... but if they run when block... it all depends on skill then..
about elemental lord, their new combo is freeze, ice sword then hell's fire... because ice sword will probably make you lie down... giving you less chance to counter (especially swordies) so beware of the freeze... even my 80% block cannot block freeze and time stop.... but just that im still blocking whenever im freezed or time stopped... haha
fighting mercs... keep them to the air as many times as you can.. their advantage is making you not wake up.. but that's their weekness too. i have no confidence fighting mercs untill yesterday... i never lose a match against them... need to learn to run more... haha...
it all still depends on personal skills anyway.. like me im a very bad controller.. but still i managed to kill some haha..
My PvP Tip is to be patience : take it slow and never greedy.. understand the skills of opponents... and always remember there's a "G" button to turn 180 degree to fight back!

Priest: never met a good priest yet ? Even a bad priest can be imba easily. 100% block and go nuts.. those normal attack combo is not to be taken lightly. I've seen 600-1200 damage / hit.
Swordmaster : block and counters with damage of 3k. Rapid slash stance. nuff said. Impossible with a acro.. Unless I have imba equips which can kill them in 2 combos. If you cant kill them in 1min, u're dead as their skill is all CD-ed.
Above jobs are the one that I think is a bit OP in 1 v 1 for acro

That's why a swordie needs to run away for the first minute... but they must finish you off the next minute with block or else... they're dead too... acro aint easy to fight... but the only skill we are not keeping you to the air is the fan thingy... 30+ hits one skill.. that's why we have to use them against acro... haha
