Remember that the blackguard is the hardest class to play in the game, with lots of abilities on hotbars and lots of micro-management. You are working hard as a blackguard for a not that great performance.
You can't have high skill ceiling classes in MMO's that also can use that skill ceiling to become powerful/OP. Or really any competitive game for that matter. They will always get nerfed.

An entire thread trying to sell Soul Killer and don't even mention Rune Priests cannot cleanse it. L2P.

It's spammable, and that cleanse costs the RP a GCD and AP. Which means either way its stopping them from healing one way or another.

You must forgive me it's been a while so I don't remember all the nuance details of war like who or what can or cannot clense or be clensed

as a RP (who can not cleanse this) i suggest listening to this advice
it's a pain in the ass and my only chance is to run in fear when i see a BG charging me cause once applied this debuff makes me utterly useless
i guess my life will get a little more easy when i get my punt and stagger but since then i am probalby f***ed :/

I'm sorry that people think BGs aren't good. They are the single best shut down tank in the game. They can literally take a dps out of the equation in fights with double AP drain, snares, out going debuff, SUPER punt, and a 5 sec KD. Yes they require the player to have 15 fingers to play because they are one of the few classes with very few useless abilities so their bars are full but that doesn't make them one bad. It just means your average mouse clicking keyboard turning player won't play them as well

I can confirm this :-)
I never played BG on live WAR so I roll one on RoR. I played IB on live and was the most hatd to play class for me with zillion buttons, but playing BG require even more buttons and micro management.

Also when I tried WH it was like playing WE on steroids.

Anyway I lile challenge and will stick with those 2 class mentioned.
