    Does Gunslinger DPS need improvement?

    in Gunslinger / Sniper

    Posted · Edited by WaliceDrel

    (Feel free to add any L2P snarky comments below, but they will be summarily ignored :D )

     

    My Gunslinger seems to me to be one of the classes with a more singular focus - DPS.

     

    Question: Are Gunslingers supposed to be a Tier 1 DPS class?

     

    If so, I'm not seeing it in PvE or PvP.

     

    We're a bit squishy compared to some, so lower survivability.

    No stealth.

    No way to exit combat to escape.

    No heals.

    Our main CC is droid only. Our other CC (Flash Grenade) is short/emergency only with a long CD.

    Many builds are most effective when standing still, in terms of DPS.

     

    With all of these drawbacks, shouldn't I be Tier 1 and shine at DPS?

     

    I've been 50 for quite some time and have done just about all the PvE content there is. I would say I am well-geared.

     

    I've PvP'd up to Valor 35 or so in both warzones and open world. I'm 582 expertise with my current gear.

     

    Don't get me wrong - I can "get by" just fine in PvP or PvE, but for a class that seems to be a single-minded damage class, I don't feel like it.

     

    In PvP, when things go well, I can hit the 300k badge with a few other medals. I have never broken 400k. However, I regularly see other hybrid classes doing a dmg/heal combo of 175/275 (or vice versa). Shouldn't a hybrid be a lower overall spike on each of their components? Isn't that the nature of a hybrid?

     

    In PvE I routinely hear other classes comment on their 5k-9k crits on Nightmare mode Ops content. I rarely see anything over 3k. I have never won the 5k shot PvP medal. I have never critted 6k+ in PvP or PvE.

     

    I have spec'd all 3 trees and played them for over 2 weeks to try and truly get a feel for each. I'm currently Sharpshooter spec'd.

     

    It just seems to me that a DPS-only class should be...well...higher DPS.

     

    Am I crazy?

     

    :cool:

     

    You described perfectly what all of us have been thinking.I have a level 50 gs/df and I could not agree more. Well said.

    I hate to be the one to say it but Imp agent is way to OP.

    in PvP

    Imp agent was already OP but this patch just put them way over the top? What other toon in the game can 3 shot kill you? I just finished pvp'ing after the patch and lots of imps agents on just destroying everyone. 3 imp agents one of them level 18 destroyed our whole team and all of us were in the 34-49 range. The smuggler on the other hand who is supposed to be the mirror of the agent gets a nerf..... realy? The imps already outnumber the rebs on every pvp server, this is not a good sign of things to come. I said my peace so go ahead and flame me if you want but someone had to say it.

    The Republic has given up

    in PvP

    Something has to be done to get more ppl to play reb or all of us players who only play reb are going get sick of being outnumbered all the time and just quit the pvp servers and go to a pve servers. And that will suck for everyone. The imps on the pvp servers will have no one to fight and rebs will be board stuck on pve servers not pvping at all.

    This Q stuff is ridiculous. I don't care what excuse or reason they give something is very very wrong. This is not a good sign of things to come. They have to make lots more servers or this game WILL fail. Nobody is going to wait in a Q for an hour every time they want to play. I have only one thing to say to Bioware..... FIX IT!!!!
