Enchanter, Eldritch or Mentalist,,,which is best for R v R

[kaedrick2]

Have started all three and now want to commit to one. Does anyone have an opinion as to which of these is best for R v R? or is each as good as the other, just played differently? Thank you.

Depends what you wanna do. Enchanter is good if you wanna be a debuffnuker like cabalist. I guess void eld would be the best for rvr. Very powerful bolts. Mentalist isn't something lots of people make to go rvr I think Mana mentalist is just like a matter cabalist, lots of dots and stuff. But also nice healing.
Its up to you what you wanna do really

Void eld sucks. If you want an eld, go light. Basically light eld is a spec nuker with nearsight and dex/qui debuff. Light ment is a spec nuker with AE nukes and heals. Mana chanter is a debuff nuker with PBAE and a pet. Pick which you like best.

Thank you both for taking the trouble to respond. I will think on what you have said and decide. I am most grateful.

I would say a Mana Chanter would be best, with this you have a healing pet with stun, heat debuff and heat nuke for great solo capabilities, but you also get PBAE which is great for groups.

Mana chanter is best without relics.

any is good, just diffrent playstyles

Enchanter - PBAE, debuffnukes, pet
Eldritch - PBAE, debuffs, snare/basenuke (mana)
Eldritch - Nuke, debuffs, mez (light)
Mentalist - Nuke, pet, demez...access to Static Tempest, a very nice realm ability. Havent seen the RR5 ra in action, but it looks very nice when you read it

I would pick light eld:

red AOE mezz.
red nearsight.
red spec DD.
red debuffs.
blue pb.
blue aoe snare.
baseline stunn.

What more do you need?

RR5 is ok, bit annoying that it can be resisted though. :/

Mana eld would be my pick. I love mine.
pbaoe, ddsnare, aoe disease, con debuff
