Yeah but you have to spec deep in tank to get the charge.
But yeah, might be that the 2 classes arent the purest form of melee, but they still can't be efficient without being in melee.
They have more abilities ranged, but less abilities staying melee.
So lets agree to this:
Ranged: Sniper/Merc/Sorc
"Hybrid": Powertech/Assassin
Melee: Jugg/Marauder/Operative
...
And yes i'm against FOTM also. There should be adjustments to encourage people to play the less played classes. (Operative/Sniper)
