Once you figure out your skill sequence you'll kill sorcs without much effort. Just don't be afraid to use CDs early. In 1v1s and both players being fully geared, sorcs/sages are probably the worst class in the game (snipers being LOS might be a slight bit easier). They really are a group oriented class(s).

Translation: Im a melee class I think Im good because I can beat a sorc/sage. (Hint: Your not. You win because your supposed to) FYI: If your a melee and you cant beat a sorc/sage. You need to quit. Melee class > Sorc/sages is WAI as of today.

Seriously, I see PuG PT cracking 500k in Voidstar. Either way though AoE DPS output is p*** poor way to measure a class. Theres a vid of a PT face-wrecking WZs on the forums right now, watch it and come back a tell me sorcs have it good. He kills sorcs repeatedly in ~ 8-10 seconds..they're a speed bump that's about it. I'm referring to the ones that fight back verse just fleeing.

No you can't. Welcome to MMOs?... When game designers ignore the silent majority to please the "vocal minority" the game goes belly up. When game designers appease the silent majority and ignore the vocal minority it becomes a cash cow....in light of that, which do you think you are? (Hint: Lots of people think they're a "majority" when in fact, they aren't)

The worst is when they hack at, say, 1.2x normal speed. Then its a very distinctive advantage especially for melees class while not being completely obvious. It also has the ability to make you immune to stuns/snares...Happens a lot more than most people realize.

lately, Ive gotten some entertainment by chasing BM titled players around while solo. Nothing make me chuckle more than a fleeing BM titled sin/mara (arguably the best 1v1 classes in the game) running from my solo champion titled Sage (arguably the worsts 1v1 class). To many fail Pvpers, so little time....

^^this^^ Anecdotal, but in the last 2-3 weeks every, and I mean every, WZ has been ~50+% sins/maras where as a month ago it was ~50% sorcs. Players have figured out and rerolled the classes that dominate PvP right now.

Which is why I said using a forum thread to prove how good you are is fail. So, most people quit playing yet asking in /general on your server is going to be useful. Nice you've failed twice.

There's only about 12-18 people actually contributing to that thread, and they all do not include you. 30-40? Usually the "good" players listed on forum epeen threads consist of people in the same guild or play together. Epeen threads are just that and usually have nothing to do with who is actually skilled at their class....most of the time

If you take away my gear crutch by making it so everyone can have comparable gear and that I have to win by skill I'm rage quitting the game. /signed *A skilless PvPer who has endless amounts of time to grind for their crutch*

IF a melee class got you to 1 health point your not at 30m, your as good as dead. IF your at 30m from your opponent and he got your to one health then hes not a melee class.

You quit because the zerg v zerg at the repub base camp style PvP was favoring ranged classes. Wow, just...wow. I hope that this game makes no effort to balance itself around a zombie zerg camping another zombie zerg in the NPCs/One shotters. IE absolutely the worst PvP game play possible. Under structured, even numbered, group AND solo game play right now melees have a huge advantage. Sins/Shads/Maras/Sents in the hand of a mouse turner are face wrecking just about anything. Ops/Scoundrels aren't far behind.

If anyone is surprised by a nerf to PT (or Maras/sent/Tank Sins/Shads while we're at it) You're either stupid or playing one of those classes...probably both.

A good Mara/Sent will eat your face no matter how "OP" you perceive the class to be. PERIOD END. A good Pyro/Vanguard will eat your face no matter how "OP" you perceive the class to be. PERIOD END. A good sin/shadow will eat your face (built for tanking) no matter how "OP" you perceive the class to be. PERIOD END. L2P and stop crying. Look at low level PvP zones and they're loaded with mara/sents and BH. News: There not the FoTM class, there just alot of them because they are pretty cool. Heal and move on with the build you posted..lolz....

It just taken this long for people to level and gear up thier Mara/Sent alt because the realized about a month or more ago there's not much that can beat them in a 1v1 when played well. Yea, it takes a team to manage one Mara/Sent. WAI?? lolz. Rated wz will show exactly what the situation is. The average/bad Maras are easy kills. The good ones are OP. And yes, every "good" player is OP, except with Maras/Sents the "good" ones will be face-rolling other "good" players. If your a Sent/Mara and you can see this is most likely because your not "good", sorry to break the news to you.

Lets be honest here, head out the other side of the repub base (or speeder?!)and find fights that aren't a zergfest. I do it all the time. Ilum is terrible because players allow it to be so. It easier to farm your daily in a zergball at the base entrance so that's what happens. I assure you though, you can and do find even fights else where.

Yea, cause spamming dots then dying requires soooo much skill. EL OH EL....

Is it me, or does this make no sense....

Last time this happened is simply put in /ops that I wasn't really interested in farming noobs and Ill just hang out off to the side. Well two other players joined me and the remaining 5 that felt like farming under gear players got a free trip to the reset point when they were beat in a 8v5. Ohh the rage in /ops after was absolutely hilarious.

I always get a kick of challenges like this one. If you see a vid of a sorc/sage losing then you disqualify it by saying "they suck". If you see one with them winning then it proves your point. In other words, you have an out for no matter what evidence is provided. Nice... Lets dunk the the heretic, if she dies then she wasn't a witch, if she lives we burn her for being a witch. ^^Your argument in a nut shell. No matter what she dies, no matter what you're right^^

THe devs primary goal is to keep people playing which why they make "Pro-PvPers" rage so much. Think on that one and think about who wants to kill the game.

Seems you find just about every class OP but your own. Maybe we should just nerf all but your class. OP is the class that just beat me. Balanced is the class I just beat. Typical PvPer mindset. I lose to Powertechs and maras all the time, to me that just means I need to get better.

http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/8885/screenshot2012022115584.jpg 700+k isnt to bad, IMO. Can sorc/sages do better? Yea, but then again no one is asking for buffs to thier healing as in this thread.

Oops!

Yeap, in a group setting were a group of player are managing your one toon you are about worthless. WAI. In a solo or non-group setting where your not being zerged you...will...win. The class skill sets once mastered make 1v1s and small group fight a lop-sided saberfest. the amount of snares, cc, and immunity as well as damage output make anyone who doesn't have at least one other player to back them up easy valor for a sent/Mara. If your playing one now and haven't figured this out you may want to re-roll to a BH/Trooper.
