There needs to be something done about the issue surround DPS assassin builds for PVE ASAP. My character is a dps assassin (deception) build. I have maxed out the gear (180) with a focus on willpower and basically am maxed out in terms of primary stat and therefore damage. When compared to other classes, my total primary stat value is sometimes 300 pts lower than other classes and as a result my damage is lower. In addition, the lack of sustained damage abilities is limiting as well. The reason this is an issue is that since I'm maxed out on my primary stat (willpower) the only way to increase is to complete NIM operations (ie 186 gear). However, as I experienced a few times already there is a bias towards DPS assassins. Therefore, there is not a level playing field and getting ultimate comms doesn't progress my character. Please address this ASAP as it is not a new problem.
Some suggestions..... 1) increase the damage on some abilities; 2) cut down cooldown time significantly of some abilities; 3) give warriors and assassins similar abilities (meaning melee warriors and assassins both fight with light sabers so the should be able to have/do similar abilities/moves) ie maybe have a few abilities that cross classes (ie hybrid abilities) and 4) increase armor to medium so they can with stand more damage....In any event, something has to be done ASAP because of this developing bias. I fully support SWTOR as I am a long time fan and I would remind the creators that Darth Maul (what assassin class was based on I assume) could easily handle two experienced jedi masters at once, if not more (in books and movie etc)....an was extremely deadly to everyone......This fact needs to be reflected in the assassin DPS deception build.....thanks for your time and I would like to hear your feedback.
