I often get into games where i am the only non glow stick player i just had one with 1 sage 1 shadow 6 knights i really do think force users are more common.

Deal if we get dodge to be on par with shroud deflection a ranged slow ranged attacks that hit 7k a finisher ranged channeled slow /thread shadows thinking they are worse than operatives make me laugh all day long. Also let my damage not be tied into my opener give me 2 stuns.

How dare they out date content with a expansion this is a first in mmo history.

I think personally deathwing vs revan would be nice but revan would win because he is the bestest jedi everest. Here is a video for all the uber good pvpers

How do i put this..... i think you will struggle to find any sympathy from anyone who didn't/doesn't play a pyro pt.

Self heals only would make sense. So it would have a utility but it wouldn't be a second life flat out only problem is it wouldn't work on Lightening what about making it a force regen as well if you're thinking about gimping it a bit? And have a talent in lightening only for external sources seen as its the only one that cannot heal in bubble due to casts and no healing dots.

Wildstar is having it also with arena i think some classes could play at a competetive level such as the operative class etc just do it as 2vs2 or 4vs4 <--- 4vs4 would not make ranked warzones that much harder to balance. Its easy to get a few mates together and do arena the same cannot be said about ranked.

Tbh in general the bh/trooper class hasn't got much love in 2.0 but balancing can never be perfect we will see Tuesday what is balanced.

Play a merc upload a video then say the class is fine k. Mercs will not be taking into rated they can do every roll sub par in pvp they are the worst class name a role they do that a class can't do better. Same combat log from my last post just as relevant.

Countless times i use my knock back someone gets it off 1 second earlier i land and its casts it for me anyone else experience this? It's very irritating.

You forgot to put Merc is still awful

1. I dont think i have seen anyone take a commando to ranked so you're saying it'[s group play what premades in normal is the only role for merc? That stupid that just makes people not what to play it more. ". I am sorry but spamming a button and waiting for a proc isn't my idea of fun, " Clearly don't understand arsenal whatsoever. From this i don't think you understand the premise of this forum infiltration has too much burst taking a class solo in a stun is op where is the pvp in that? Mercs should not be down to sitting at the back in group play only thats stupid you just don't want any classes to be on par with shadows clearly. And at least marauders have a fighting chance especially in smash spec they have ranged attacks force camo obfuscate a leap in smash as a merc to deal with being opened on and killed in a stun i have a cc breaker gg mate you seem to understand and comprehend game balance. Also stealth on a class that has some of the highest burst out of stealth bioware clearly thought long and hard about this.

The fact of the matter is that damage occured in a stun its just stupid for any class to have that much burst i don't mind the odds being against me 1 on 1 but no class should be able to kill me in a stun atm as i have seen shadows hit harder than lolsmashers. And i have been running combat logs all day. EDIT* so to beat a shadow i need to pop everything for a shadow to beat me he needs to open.

So as a merc i shouldn't be able to pvp unless i can sit behind and hope i don't get spotted? Whats the point in the class all i did was post the stupid damage deception does with 0 repercussions to the class. Its just stupid.

This is when you stopped talking reason if you think melee in swtor is harder than ranged you are stupid kiting in this game is gimped with large cast times on just about everything but what would i know with those stuns pulls leaps on incredibly short cooldowns vanishes stealth teleports force speeds instant cast slows. But i guess as a merc with a hydraulics and 1 kb and a stun i should be able to keep a ac that comes from stealth then i kb he slows i get gap closed so i root and run so he force speeds to me so i stun so i chose either dps or get some range in which he will stun or i will get 1 cast off and he still has all his defensives and vanish and stun and cc good example of melees handicap not to mention the opening stun the cc then instants the instant ranged attacks then finisher. But you seem to know your stuff. Or shall we do warriors?

open impale maul maul blackout shock finisher /end next.

Even with the merc buff we are left behind in the dust i don't mind not being able to solo players that fine but the fact that i can get killed in a stun and as soon as i break force shroud /end fight its just stupid how much utility one class has compared to another. It's like they buffed mercs then forgot every other class was getting buffed you cannot strafe outside of power surge unless your lolpyro which is sub par damage and you cannot mitigate anything. Kolto overloads is just a stupid cool down up to 30% did they realize that finishers can take 30% away instantly. Also ty zachariah for talking sense i watch a lot of your pts videos which made me hopeful but we are where we were pre 2.0 with a bit more damage and a few more pointless utilities but leaps and bounds behind. I would also like electro net to have a reasonable cool down we have 0 decent defensive ones so make our offensive one decent at least. I expected all of this bias to assassins seen as everyone is one and it has every utility i think its over tuned. The matter of the fact is we are one of the only classes left with hard counter(s).

And this class stopped having every utility in the game bar a team heal. They didn't need phase walk they don't even need stealth they are better out of stealth than warriors. Too much utility in one class i wish i had combat logs on the other day for the lovely 9k finisher whats the point in kolto overload if they can lol kill me in 1 cd. Game balance level 0 I'm hoping a dev reads this but half the player base are shadows and assassins.

Good job dodging everyones post's can we get a eta on fixes? To sum up of all these posts: no we won't do your job you had pts post's and metrics. Bottom line is this was ranked release all over again you are not good to your customers and they have every right to be annoyed. P.S. Don't bother with anymore pts servers you clearly don't use any of the information why don't you just remove the forums you only seem to answer the easy questions.

You clearly haven't played a merc in 2.0 shadows just spam maul+shock in deception and then finisher and im dead. Some classes can just spam.

Aww the two button pyro pt is complaining because hes on equal footing enjoy not being Godmode dps anymore. Sincerely every merc.

TTk at 55 is the same.

I personally find it baffling as a bounty hunter or as anyone that i don't have a pet companion surely pets exist in swtor why can't i have a manka cat or a baby rancor idk just give me a pet that fights as a companion?

Bolster in pvp is fine just give me bolster in pve see how the pve and raiding community likes it why should you have to put 0 effort into pvp and get a reward and have to grind fp and old raids weekly to be competitive give me pve bolster and let me lolstomp scum and villainy.

Indeed i have kolto overload on my merc and it heals me up to 30% but whats the point when the shadows finisher hits 9k? I am 55 2 pieces of pvp gear and i am getting killed in a scoundrels opener killed in a pyro vanguards stun getting killed in 2 hits by lolsmashers 4k obliterate lol leap 4k? logic. It's a melees game again and don't get me ranting about shadows and assassins they have always been op with every utility in the game bar team healing and now they can kill me in a opener i mean 6k maul which is spammable 6k project at 55. The pvp does not get better it is the same roll it back to pre 2.0 at least then it didn't feel like a fps bolster shouldn't be in 55 pvp anyway why have bolster in pvp if its in pvp i want it in raiding so i don't have to do any grinding.
