There is little to no skill involved in melee minecraft pvp (it seems to mostly be about connection). It only matters who hits whom more, and I hit people more than they hit me. It is a simple assumption that if I am hitting you more than you hit me and am using all offensive skills at my disposal yet I still lose, there is a clear imbalance. There is no clear way to fight a dreadknight except to hope that you can outhit him to such an extent that you win.
Also @
Dielan9999 , saying that they are balanced because you can group up on them is really a bad way of proving that it is ok. Multiple people vs one will almost always go in favor of the group. In a 1v1 fight dreadknights simply never lose except to geomancers and they are still good in a group fight because they have decent damage output.
Also greek, the only personal insult that was even implied by me before you actually called me out was directed toward delta. I literally hit the guy 20 times more than he hit me and when he got into no pvp he started shouting shit like "You mad?" and other stupid things of that nature.
