Thermal detonator -> power shot -> rail shot does about 10k damage with crits and with adrenals / relics could go upwards of 13-14k. Pyro has no damage?

Melee classes jousting with ranged classes to interupt casting via laggy movement is an archaic and stupid mechanic and im glad swtor is done with it. You should only be able to interupt casting via interupts / los / knockbacks etc. not forcing the ranged class to suffer your laggy connection because you are teleporting around his character.

No, changing your advanced class changes the entire dynamic of how you play the game. And seriously, it takes 2 hours at most to get a character to level 10, go do it

You are speaking only from the perspective of an arsenal merc, pyro does not need to turret at all to deal its burst.

damaging the enemy huttball carrier also counts as defender points

In huttball you can get the 75k healed one for free by standing in the acid during the last minute of the game and healing yourself, i usually average around 10-12 medals as pyrotech depending on the defender medals i get or if i can get a lucky 5k+ thermal detonator with relic + adrenal + overcharge

I hated alterac valley, would much rather see an eots style battleground mixing huttball ball capturing with alderaan point control

Once theres a level 50 bracket the complaints will drop, Ill bet that 80% of the complaints at the moment are from low level players that get ***** in 1 stun by geared scoundrels.

If the highest damage you can hit is 185k its not a problem with the class.

Cross server queueing is coming to fix issues like this

If lights out is the one where you disable the 3 generators you dont even need a group for that, just suicide your companion into the group in front of the generator and go capture it while he dies, rince and repeat 1-2 times then just revive to med station and turn in the quest

Its funny how much people complain about tracer missile when arsenal is just a way inferior spec to pyro.

you dont need to be spamming dots, throwing in a rapid shots after every incendiary missile will go a long way towards keeping your heat at a manageable level

Its because operatives own low level players harder than anyone else, low level players who get *****tomped are the ones who are most likely to post a complaint thread.

Or go pyro in which you dont use tracer missile at all, both specs are viable

I've never read anything more wrong in my life, pyrotech will ALWAYS have more damage overall than arsenal just because of how many dots you are tossing around and you dont need to be turreting to do it. pyro will **** arsenal 1v1 in any environment with LOS, being able to just pop out and keep dots / thermal detonator / rail shot on cooldown lets you roll over arsenal who is forced to land tracers. also the burst in pyro requires much less setup than arsenal, arsenal needs 5 heat signatures stacked on a target and preferably 5 tracer locks on yourself, pyro just needs incendiary missile on someone Pyro is an amazing spec and the damage it puts out just completely ***** on arsenals considering you dont need to be standing still to do it

Yeah, nerfing biochem isnt the solution, buffing everything else is

they should really change it to kills in one life, and add a lot more announcements

6.6 heatseeker 6.4 thermal detonator this is with crit / surge champion relic, rakata power adrenal, and the overcharge buff

Get friends

For your adrenal you should get the power one, crit and surge hit the soft cap with the massive amount you get from the adrenal and the amount of actual crit you get goes way down. Power has no caps afaik

http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#3000cZMckZfhrbzGGMs.1 Pyrotech pvp spec, I take accuracy and alacrity talents over 3% endurance just because i swap out the accuracy mods on my gear for crit / surge mods and Ill still take 4% alacrity over 2% endurance when i unload / DFA / rapid scan

If im trying to finish my daily and i join into a 0-5 huttball with 7 minutes left ill just leave and requeue, i shouldn't be penalized for that.

Pyrotech burst is absolutely insane and requires no buildup like arsenal burst does with 5 heat signatures. thermal detonator -> power shot -> rail shot both power shot and rail shot hit at the exact same time as detonator explodes so its just an insane amount of burst especially with some crits it gets to be over 10k

Explain such "major class imbalances" Also, tell us the level of your main character, im willing to bet its under 50
