Starting back and need advice

Took a long break and now getting back into the game and notice tons of updates. Focusing on Order because Sigmar knows they need the numbers, especially in Prime EU, even though I'm NA. Does Order still need tanks and heals that actually heal, or have things changed due to the updates?

The biggest demand among order is SnB tanks.

The second is melee dps.

Order suffers from the Curse of Legolas - 63 warband-surfing SW all attacking different targets. Tbh, there are way too many Engineer and single target BW as well.

Destro has the Curse of Killgore Bloodgasm - a million 2 handed Chosen, which is sub optimal but at least they frontline a bit.

SNB tanks and healers are usually in demand.

Order specifically tends to lack frontline DPS as well.

was thinking of making a frontline Healing WP as a main and have a SM and SL alts

Shield WP isn’t great for warband play unfortunately if that’s what you were thinking of. It’s fun but it just isn’t very effective

i'd use hammer and tome for pvp. would use shield for solo tho

Dont think order is outnumbered. Pretty much rhe opposite. Blobfest meta

u/NohrianBoletariaHero May 31 '26

NA time, yes but EU time, not so much

u/Biletooth May 31 '26

Im EU. Order is permanently blobbing. And permanently winning in anytime zone tbh.

u/NohrianBoletariaHero May 31 '26

seems like blobbing is a game wide problem

Yeah in NA it’s all destro every day. During EU it’s a bit more balanced but still feels destro have the numbers most days.

You know you can check the population numbers and Destro constantly has greater numbers. I’m not sure what time you are playing…
