Had written off my Dirge after I found out she can't track stealth or invis, then I ready this:

Sounds like they would be cool for support. Was going to level healer Meds up for support roll, but we seem to have a few furys and mystics on there.
Thoughts? Would be nice to play a class I've not tried before.

i have a level 35 dirge on darathar. she is the best pvp char i ever had.
but, i have to say. i am never hunting alone. i have always a swashy with me.
this combination is the best you can have in pvp.
here some points that make her really strong:
- the dirge gets a spell (don't remember level) that slows your target. but, it hasn't a chance to break rather than the slow spells all the other scout classes get.
- when you are attacking more than one target you have the possibility to make one flee, kill the other then kill the second you made flee. in this case i would go for the healer to flee, if there is one.
- speed buffs: at level 14 (or something like this) you get the 22% speed buff. it will go up til 38%. this doesn't help if you have someone with 48% horse behind you.
- dps- , incombat power regen- , poison/disease-buffs: you get tons of buffs, so at a certain point you have to choose between a selection. i pointed those that i think are the most important, besides the str,agi and int puffs
- heal attacks: at 35 i had 2 heal attacks both in master. very very good
-> negative: a dirge isn't dps as a swashy or ranger might be. but in a duo or group there isn't anything better. especially the buffs are great. i never did pvp alone with her i have to admit. but if you want to attack someone from range take the Shriek spells as master 2, when offered.
if you choose to play a dirge, don't forget to keep the int high, besides agi. she has a lot of spells, as well as combat attacks. i would leave aside str. you will get buffs to increase str, agi and int
