game engine is pure turd, back in 2011/2012 open pvp was notorious for crippling high/top end pcs of the time.

the game will be 6yrs old tomr, there hasn't been a single year when mara were ever a bad class. they always been Op or at worst good class. they are not that difficult, rotation will become muscle memory in few dozen matches. kazillion dcds ensure they survive through tons of damage while melting everything. only class that can 1vs1 sniper/mercs and win. but don't worry mara/sent fanboy your class will never be nerfed, bw clearly favors it.

problem with huttball is that you get Queshball more then original. Queshball is easily the 2nd worst pvp map. original is way better and is not super cramped.

a sent complaining about merc/pts now thats rich :rolleyes::rolleyes:

agreed, imo scrapper/concealment is the most fun spec in the game. i miss the knock down. sadly whining from other classes especially snowflake sorcs has gotten this class nerfed, currently their burst is good but they lack the dcds of other melee dps classes.

respect to her ops/scoundrel heals are not easy and imo the hardest healing class to play in pvp. sorc is just brain dead easy and mercs healers are tanks. will check out the guide,thanks for the link. i need to get good on my op healer.

after 1800 crit starts to take some serious diminishing returns, dont invest in it after that point. note my advice here is mostly regarding pvp. stat priority is still gonna be the same crit > alacrity > mastery/power. i personally rely on stims to give me accuracy. for optimal numbers for those stats look at old 5.x guides.

did they fix the sorc heals as well still seeing them do absurd amount of heals

anyone who says that they do fine with tier 1/2 gear is a moron, when its common sense that 208 rating gear bolsters better then 230-236 rating.

reps are bad on SS as well but it's mostly a gear issue imps are usually 246-248 ratings, while reps have trash gear.

dont believe this for one second either you face actual brain dead opponents or this didnt happen.

gear matters a lot and always did since launch, anyone saying otherwise is just a moron. bolster has always been crap imo. it doesn't really boost important stats like crit/alacrity.

tldr i am not gonna bother reading that essay i always played merc since the game came out, we were always farmed before. its ok, its time for us to take our revenge and farm other classes now.

thats cause mara have been a favored broken class since launch. they have never been weak, plus they got million dcds. 3 dps specs to choose from.... if 1 gets nerfed 2 others remain OP

ok stupid question time i know alacrity lowers your gcd, does it also lower cool down for each individual ability?

cross-faction is good because pubs are super under geared, you see 248s less on pub side then on imp at least on SS/SF servers. with this they can finally gear faster and hopefully start winning.

engineering is not easy thats why your damage is low. get better or switch to mm its easier

what about before 5.0?? i remember the class being super easy to kill. also its not as mobile as you claim to be, tracer is the main component of arsenal and its casted 90% of the time. heals are not that strong if you're in dps spec. TR nerf is huge almost half of healed amount as before 5.6 , kolto wasnt nerfed a lot . cc is the bust solution to when mercs use dcds. especially energy shield and reflective.

they should buff snipers/mercs as well then

patch hits coming tuesday and 90% likely they'll fix the bugs, so please no more ************. this class has been **** for a lot of years.

plus lord didnt mention that he's pretty much fully geared, gear is a huge deal

lol ranked sometimes i dont use my dcds when 2 of teamates get insta killed. no point in wasting time trying to win a losing battle.

the class is focused in ranked because its easy to kill, same for dps sorc and juggs. you focus them, kill them and once its 4vs3 your team gets a pretty big advantage

bw dont give a single crap about balancing the game, they'll fix cartel market issue asap doe

mercs die to as well under pressure they just dont blow up instantly like snipers do. about 2-3 weeks ago in a ranked match, our 100% balanced mara clapped opposing the sniper during the 2nd round in what seemed to be 10-25 secs. i blinked my eyes and the dude was dead, couldn't believe how fast he fell.
