Insta Force lift. It's fun to troll that cocky sniper by letting our Sent leap to him.

Yes, it has happened to me for awhile now on The Shadowlands Server. Very annoying to say the least.

No he didn't, but he got his face smashed in a motorcycle wreck

100% totally agree.

I think class balance problems have more to do with TTK after 1.2 then any real class imbalance issues. But I will say, having played my Sage all this time, if they raise TTK, give me personally more survivability in a buff, or nerf the perceived OP classes, my Sage will be way OP simply do to the tactics I have had to imploy to survive in a WZ now.

15 bucks a month is just not that much for me to worry about. I'll continue to pay the sub as it's way cheaper than going out to the bar

This whole MMO movement towards micro transactions will be the death of the genere. I don't play online facebook games for the simple reason that they try to nickle and dime you to death for content that you should be able to play. If this is the trend and future of MMO's, I think I'll just go back to my Nintendo 64 and play a game I paid for and that I'm allowed to see all the content from the purchase price of said game.

IT IS EA.....CASH MARKET IS TO BE EXPECTED. Maybe not now, but wouldn't put it past them in the near future.

Agreed with this one point over all else stated in this thread. CS in this game has been by far, the single most unimpressive experience I have had in an MMO. From day one it has sucked. The total lack of an ability to actually "speak" to someone in game or out of game is inexcusable and screams to me "We want your money, don't care about you or your problems with our product".

Sage dps needs an actual single target "kill button" that deals out 3500-4500 damage like all the other dps have. I played my sage last night in a VS and although I did 500k damage, it felt more like 150k. It's just so bland with no real excitement. I know we are classified as a utility dps, but the lack of a big hit/crit ability hampers the class.

Stupid question but I looked at the gear that the PvP vendors have and none fits Inf. The set bonus is horrible. The only one that fits is the tank 2 pc set and the stats suck. What is eveyone else using with this spec?

What I find funny is the " GW2 has no gear grind" but when looking at the forums all you see is "We grinded our gear back in the day when it was hard" or "I payed my dues, you should have to as well" in every post about expertise or someone looking for competitive pvp in this game. I would guess that out of the people that leave, 40% will be back and the rest will play both games. And as a side note, it may be free to play, but I'm not willing to shell out another 60 bucks on a game that might suck worse than this one.

But he does have valid points

Fail post as you left 2 ranged classes out of the equation because everyone knows Merc/Commando and Sorc/Sage RANGED DPS are not wanted in rateds.

The only real complaints I have about this game are: 1) The planet areas are basically small and very limited as to where you can go 2) Load Screens for EVERYTHING. You want to go to your ship....load screen. Travel to a planet=same thing...load screen. It takes 20 min to leave the fleet, get to a planet and START to have fun. Hell, going up and down an elevator makes you go to a load screen. Those are my 2 complaints as far as the game goes. There will always be balance issues between classes in a gear progression based MMO. OP and UP will swap several times over the course of this games life time which=a non issue. Not saying I or others will not be upset about it, it just goes with the territory and anyone who played WoW knows this all to well.

Another melee whine post about roots,snares and stuns. QQ more, BW will probably cave even though it's a L2P issue. Been waiting to state that for a month

And I agree or I wouldn't play mine. I think people need to look at the strengths of the Sage/Sorc and not focus so much on the weaknesses. I get into trouble with mine interupting healers which draws ALOT of attention from the opposing teams heavy hitters.

It's never 1v1 in a warzone on a Sage. If I actually get the chance to 1v1 a Mara I can rip him apart, but as soon as they think they are going to lose even with their DCD's, the Mara calls his Mara/PT/Jug friend and it's insta-death. I actually have a harder time against PT's, the tank spec or pyro.

Agreed with everything you said. The only trouble I have with snipers on my Sage is finding that well hidden sniper picking me apart in Huttball.

I get so sick of this response. Just look on the forums for posts pre 1.2 and feed on the tears of QQ from the bads that are OP now. Nerf Merc, Sorc and Ops threads all over the place from crying Sents/Maras and now they are the top dogs and don't want to give it up. Troll more you FOTM players, can't wait for the tears being about how you can't survive after the Dev's finally pull their heads out of the sand and do something about the gross imbalance that a Sent/Mara is.

Out of my way? I got stuck between a table and chair on my Mara's ship. Was happy that all I had to do was log out and back in to fix it as /stuck didn't work and nowhere to quick travel to

2 "pro" for me. I can honestly say that I was carried on my recruit geared Sent AND had atleast had ONE of the highest stats in the game....DEATHS. A big shout out to the peeps on The Shadowlands who put up with my pitiful sent.

You are wrong sir. When you can elimate half the AC's from rateds by playing a mara, pt, sin or an ops healer, there is a serious imbalance of classes. I must say you are right to an extent. I think the whole problem with this imbalance is due to TTK and the huge nerfs that were given to some classes 1.2 along with the minor buffs given to the now seen as OP classes. But before you judge people in there assumptions, you should look at the life quality of say a Sage/Sorc or perhaps an Ops/Scoundrel and think to themselves, "How fun could it be to play those gimped toons and get face rolled all day"? It is far from a L2P issue as class mechanics and defences where changed. Damage output was lowered for these classes and so survivability took a hit. Sure there are some that can still squeeze the potential out of there toons, But they are few and far between. And I didn't even touch the healing nerfs that where given to 2 classes.

Sages are percieved as easy kills in PvP by all other DPS classes and tanks. I run a 3/17/21 spec and actually do pretty well in the PvP enviroment. I see my role as support DPS and help the games REAL DPS(sents-vanguards-gunslingers) focus down an enemy.

I agree the sage sorc is pretty damn weak compared to just about all the other AC's. I have said it before that the damage is not bad if you have the time to dish it out. But the total lack of survivabilty doesn't allow it. Sage/Sorc bubble should be atleast be doubled in the protection it gives with the amount of burst the other classes have. 1.2 felt alot like the nerf Shadow Priests were given in Cata. Went through it there and it's no different here, since these Devs apparently look to WoW for everything they implement. It's truly sad because if wanted to play that piss poor game I would be still subbed for it.
