Great by whos standards? Yours? This guy is complaining of his hybrid spec not being able to compete in 1v1 play, and that is because a hybrid spec is just a wz spec. All im saying is balance enables you to compete.
Thats an exception, nothing to do with skill.
To the OP, this may seem crazy but why dont you try an actual 1v1 spec on a sage, you never know you may like it. Hybrid is only a wz spec for padding your stats.
I think you will find what most people fear is a shadow/assassin in tank spec. See alot more of them around these days now people figured out they have it all.
Highest damage ive had, not very often it happens, you really need an exceptionally bad opposing team.

Sage. I will say that if i switch to dps its alot easier to get medals. You can just mindlessly dps, not concentrating on who to heal etc. But it still doesnt seem that hard.
