    PvP is a huge topic, and I have a list of concepts that could not fit in this video. Maybe there will be a part 2 or an intermediate/advanced version in the future. Also, I've been considering doing 2 or 3 videos a month in order to increase the quality. Every video I put out, I see ways in which I could have improved it. Not sure yet. It's been less than a year on this YouTube journey, and I'm still learning/improving a lot. As always, thanks for watching and good luck in the dungeons!

  • @JetrinLee
    I started comparing Dark and Darker to PKing in OSRS, so the fact you chose this music really adds to the experience.
  • i watched only 2 minutes already and i can tell this guide is packed with informations, very detailed, love it
  • @ccrobat_
    I wouldn't have played the game if not for these extremely comprehensive guides. Thank you dude.
  • @Sakubo
    As other people said your videos are probably the best for new players. Thank you so much for your time!
  • @CheFisher
    Was wondering how high the skill cap was in this game... and now I know! That was some battle chess like plays from you and your boiz. Well played.
  • @wilko7709
    This and the other 3 videos have really helped me understand the game. Thank you.

    IMO, the Ranger class is designed around being “unstoppable” if it can pick favorable engagements. Setting up traps, having access to molotovs, and the power of the bow and the skills that compliment it all go with this philosophy. However, if a Ranger is caught out, it feels like you get one burst of damage based on your primary skill and if you whiff it you instantly-lose. I’d like to see a more well rounded setup. Perhaps reducing the high-damage and sometimes bursty nature of the class, but giving it access to more abilities that interact with terrain, especially in favorable circumstances. Leaning into the “survivalist” theme a bit. Whatever the fix is, I’m sure it’s complex and ever changing with this being a live service/EA game. I appreciate Iron Mace for continuing to experiment and listening to community feedback.

    Very enlightening. Now that I'm getting a bit more familiar with your tutorials about PvE on every maps, I'm starting to turn my attention towards PvP, to be prepared for any kind of encounter in the dungeons. I'm currently trying to learn what the good and bad matchups are for me as cleric, and the notions of advantages and disadvantages, when to push or fallback. That was really nice to learn more about PvP ! ~ A thankfull brother
  • @mrtspence
    Another terrific guide. You have some of the best informative content out there for this game.
  • @alexstraub5808
    as a new player, you guides are so helpful!! Love how you explain everything, would love how-to videos in your style for each of the classes, both how to play them and how to deal with them
  • @jbecks1738
    Amazing content. I would love to see a video just covering gear & stat rolls. I main cleric (lvl 60) and had no idea magic healing doesn’t apply when the weapon isn’t out, huge piece of info to learn. Also, explaining which rolls are dead rolls and which are good would be very helpful for a new player, as well as what is more beneficial (strength vs weapon dmg vs phys dmg bonus vs true damage, etc). I haven’t been able to find any goods guides breaking that down
  • I’ve got 1000 hours and I still watch your guide/tips videos keep up the good work ❤
  • @DukeJohnny
    By no power bestowed upon me by noone, I deem you a Dark and Darker Sensei Supreme! Your videos help noob like me a lot, thanks and cheers!
  • @MrCreeperKicker
    I’d like to see more build guides from you, I love your move speed cleric guide so much.
