I use the BBB matrix cube and the 220 crit / surge pvp relic. I also have the power one and i swap between them while the other is on cooldown but i would take the crit / surge one first.

They all tick separately as different debuffs (which is good against cleansers, although you would never use flame thrower anyways just because of how you want to keep distance between you and your target. often times fights will go like this incendiary -> thermal -> rail -> power surge + TSO fusion missile -> kite with rapid shots this is how i usually fight EVERY operative after i break their opener and jet boost them away

Yes lets nerf the inferior mercenary spec because people who dont know how to interupt or LOS are getting killed by it.

Actually, any class can still get the 2.5k and 5k healing medals along with the 75k healing medal. Because i dont want this to get nerfed however, im not going to say how, if you dig deep though you can probably find out.

I dont use power shot or unload enough while being focused to warrant taking it over 6% crit tbh

Actually, it gives them longevity and promotes an actual reason to acquire all this pvp gear. I agree with everything said in the OP but i do think maps should be random, a team that just stacks knockbacks for example could just refuse to play on any map without multiple floors. I just hope there are no hazards in the maps though, no cheesy fire pit killing strats please

I cant believe so many people cry about arsenal when its such a garbage and easy to counter spec. Pyrotech is better in every single way except sustained damage if you are allowed to chain cast and turret (never), but hey if people want to outcry and get the worse spec nerfed fine by me.

thermal detonator, without the higher up talents in arsenal tracer just becomes a weaker power shot that applies a -armor debuff (which doesnt stack with other classes afaik so it wouldnt even matter in a raid)

Except thats total ******** and not true at all.

Id expect it to come at the same time as cross server warzones.

I can still get 3 out of the 4 healing medals as a dps specd merc every game, i feel sorry for healers.

most classes (if not all) have an ability like this where it only works on disabled mobs but will not work at all in pvp, i think this is intended but i do agree its pretty lame. I'd love to shoulder slam some noobs with my merc

+1 for arenas, the only thing that kept me in wow for most of lich king and early cata. Honestly, this game is pretty balanced as is, some people might whine about sorcerers or scoundrels but im still not convinced there is any godmode loliwineverytime class in this game.

http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#3000cZMckZcGrbzGGMs.1 maybe system calibrations might be slightly better than cardio package, but i can recall multiple times ive lived on only 1-2% hp while i cant recall any scenario where 4% faster cast times have made a difference.

Possibly to someone who most likely cant function if he ever needs to press more than 3 abilities, to someone who has never lost a fair fight to any mercenary / commando on the server though no, it is not irony.
