Lol, what a joke.

yay! whos with me?

If you thought pyros were bad, you are going to have real fun with shield spec after these changes go in. LoL. But who are we kidding, there wont be any players left after tonight anyway.

I suggest you roll a tank class, gear out in all defensive gear, select all the possible tanking tree talents, forgoing any damage mods/skills, maxing out your war-hero gear, using a rakata fortitude stim pack and then... getting killed in 4 gcds by a: 1) shadow 2) pyro pt 3) marauder 4) jug or 5 gcds by a: any other dps besides a merc or sorc. And then posting about your experiences here.

Monk bro.

If you have those classes I would just reroll at this point anyway.

Lol, no pvp is better than the crap we deal with here.

I can't wait for D3. I have been clicking my installer every few mins just to check if they unlocked it.

I don't think republicans spend money...

You are talking about 1v1 though. Just imagine what would happen if, say a Smuggler Jedi Kight, and Jedi Sage came together? They just might have been able to beat a group of Ops, Troopers and a Sith Warrior and a Sith Sage. (Episode 1)

Or, they could just make defensive stats worth a spit in pvp, giving players the choice between survivability and damage done. On the other hand, t's likely they will just go the wow route and make expertise reduce critical damage further.

If the marauder leaped on you before your KB, he is a bad marauder.

My shield spec eats marauders. Usually i will finish a fight with 75% hp. Sometimes ill finish with 30% if the marauder is pro.

I have reported over a dozen people, and they went away for a few days. Now they are all still playing the game except for 1or2. I assume those 2 quit. The worst ones are the heat hackers who can spam specials all day long. I can't believe they haven't gotten banned...

0) DPS Mercs, Pyro/Assault, DPS ops/snipers 1) Healers 2) Non Tank specced DPS 3) Tanks I run in a premade. Group 0 will usually die in 2-4 GCDs, healers take about 4 GCDs, the others just take a little longer. Dead DPS = no dps.

I am a vanguard and play on the fatman. I will kill any marauder in a 1v1. Also, I am not assault spec.

Are you complaining about Stemi on the fatman?

bump for justice.

Not to mention he is an OP who said pillars are useless.

Well enjoy getting owned by pyros at 30m : ). I'd hate to see what snipers do to you.

Eh these guys don't make sense. You try to help them and they just don't want to be helped. It's like my cousin who complains he can't find a job, even though he never goes out and looks for them. When I give him references of people who I know are hiring, he ignores it and just blames the government. I guess he expects something to just show up in the mail...

In my premade, if I call out a pyro for a focus target they are usually dead in < 2 GCDs.

* almost, but they are missing a huge amount of armor pen from talents. Their weapon does higher base and max damage but it just isn't enough to overcome the armor pen.

Sorry dude, they kinda messed up your class with 1.2. I view mercs as free kills for my marauder and vanguard.

Instead of attacking me personally, why don't you contribute to the conversation and offer some useful criticism in terms of game mechanics? I actually believe in all the advice I have given and have tried to give evidence to back it up. I mean you can sit around and complain that XYZ class is over powered and wait for a nerf to swing in. OR you can try to suck it up, and figure out how to win or improve your play. All I am trying to do is impart knowledge on how to defeat vanguards who spec Assault (which i think isn't a seriously competitive spec in high end pvp) and offer my opinions about some of the limitations of the spec.
