Hey, just re-subbed today having been gone since around October/November of last year. Have an Arsenal Merc in mostly 162 Gear with a few 168 items. Mostly looking for a laid back/fun environment, maybe look to get into some alt/casual groups for some OPs. My in game character is Zahltag.

My only gripe with leaps/charges is that they shouldn't interrupt...the amount of interrupts Juggs have is retarded combining force push combo to reset leaps CD

I hear Marauders are pretty balanced....oh wait

lol, no matter how good you are...if a player of equal skill is playing a Jugg or Marauder they will wipe the floor with you 100% of the time!

You act like even having full PVP gear would make a difference...your god mode class still hits people for 9-10k consistently against players in full PVP gear, pretty sad how a class with zero ramp up time has so much utility/burst.

Ah, well now you know how Arsenal Mercs have felt since launch

And this is why people despise tanks, stopping between every damn pull going at a turtles pace. Then again I guess this is how you have to play with you keyboard turning and clicking ya know

Nothing in this game is even remotely challenging...people don't heal just cause they don't know how it's the fact that healing and tanking in this game is so god damn boring! I thought tanking in WoW was faceroll but this game somehow finds ways to make it even easier. Lets not forget how pathetically easy the rotations/priorities are for dps classes in this game. Yet people are wanting macros/mouse-over type functionality in this game when it's obvious the developers have no *********** clue whatsoever how to accomplish anything or if they do it takes them 1+ years to implement then they find something else to break while putting that in.

So yeah, no matter where you "strategically" set yourself up you will not be able to avoid all the special ed smash monkeys that flood WZs. Our only counter to them is Electro Net which has such a long CD.

No it's mainly the fact that people who play retardedly OP classes then stack those classes in a RWZ and think they are good when they are actually carried by there 2 button specs.

IKR I mean like how dare they make level 50 gear still useful at 55!!!!!!!!! You act like it was even remotely a challenge to get EWH gear, I mean **** you don't even have a win a single *********** ranked match and you still get ranked comms and would eventually have your set. PVP in this game was and always will be for the bads who couldn't cut it in WoW. Just look at the circle jerk s-keyers in Hey I'm MVP it's the scrubs who couldn't even break 2k in WoW.

If you are dying to an Arsenal Merc as a Guardian then please **** and Uninstall the game.

If that's the case lets make Force Shroud + Force Speed unusable together...seems fair seeing as the change you are wanting would keep OP healers from capping huttball quickly and this change would fix Sins from capping so quickly, I don't see a problem at all.

Was unaware that 7k+ smashes while in tank stance was crippling...oh wait But then again no matter what all the ******* playing the one button spec will reply back trying to defend there spec. Then again anyone who thinks this game will ever have a competitive PVP scene has other issues seeing as clickers and s keyers can get 2.5+k ranking fairly easily.

You should probably upgrade your greens if you are getting hit by 11k Smashes.

Ah how sad, the one time PT Pyros are weak they flood the forums...cry me a river!

IKR...truth hurts

Oh you mean like how pre 2.0 it took zero skill/setup for someone in EWH gear to kill someone who was gearing up? Let me guess you are a butthurt Pyro PT who actually has to use his brain to kill someone now?

So am I missing something or did they get really lazy and is every classes story the exact same in 2.0?

If you want to do more damage and live longer in PVP then some DPS classes/specs then roll Assassin.

Then remove snipers ranged root, it is *********** ******** they get to keep theres when they already had and still have higher survivability then Mercs against melee.

My biggest gripe with this games PVP is how tanks can out damage dps specs which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Another thing is they need to move quite a few of these powerful spells further up in trees to avoid a majority of these hybrid BS specs. But again we all know, Bioware is never going to nerf there Precious Warriors.

I agree, my first 50 was a 50 Merc which I enjoyed Arsenal so much. Nowadays we just get ROFLStomped by any Pryo or Smashtards no matter how well you play you will NEVER beat one of them. Our defensive cd is laughable, not to mention the only way we are going to get off a CC is if we waste our instant cast CD to make the CC instant. Really wish we could talent into an instant CC like Sorcs can.

If you are playing against any decent team you won't even be able to get off a tracer missile. You are even a free kill to a Sorc which is saying something. If you want to play your Merc in a RWZ environment you are better off trying out the Pyrotech tree even though it is the gimped version of the Powertechs one.

Hello, just recently finished getting full WH sets though still need to straighten out my stats I believe a little better. I tried looking up for some basic guidelines though I couldn't find any clear answers. Current stats are: 1370 Expertise 1557 Willpower 953 Power 31.01% Critical Chance 75.14% Critical Multiplier 265 Surge Rating 265 Alacrity I guess my main question would be is my Power too high and should I swap out some of my Power augments for something else or what? Thanks
