Sounds like someone grasping at straws to justify not picking Night Fae :PHere's my unpopular opinion. Nightfae is for casuals. What class do you tell someone to roll if they new to the game? Hunter. And if they want to heal? Druid. This is conveniently the 2 classes that auto pick nightfae 99% of the time.
Its also the cute and "pretty" covenant that kids and a lot of women will love.
Nightfae also has podtender. A cheat life mechanic to forgive the casual for not avoiding a mechanic.
How about campaign missions? They can cheese it with 1 follower and 4 troop to do lvl 60 missions.
They got the earliest mount.
They get the earliest double potency slot.
They get convoke which is the easiest I Win button up to 1500ish rating to ensure nightfae players get at least 207 conquest gear. The podtender in pvp is easy to counter for 1500+ players but not in lower brackets. The hp bar doesn't even show up unless u look 100ft in the sky.
If you like this covenant then I'm all for you enjoying it. Idc. But its pretty easy to see all the advantages this covenant has.
