  1. You should use quotes to help ppl understand who you're talking to. Also, I think your statement about "being snarky without justification" is complete bs. I'm justified in feeling howevery I like. If you're not interesed in having someeone shoot you down then you should consider that before you shoot off at the mouth.

    Stuns

    Or they could just dial back the number of stuns globally...
  3. Hrm... Lemme try and make sense of this... Ppl think Sorc/Sage with hybrid spec are overpowered because AoE abilities are a utility... u·til·i·ty - something useful; a useful thing. You can tell this because they do dmg and Sorc/Sages have skill trees with skills in them that other classes don't. I'm lost.
  4. This thread isn't about isn't about Sorcs beeing overpowered and needing a nerf? We all know Tracers are OP and will be "adjusted"
  5. Can we all agree that there is an overpopulation of posts like this in the forums? I have a lvl 46 Sorc. I play PVP. I consider myself to be a slightly above average PVPer. I get wasted all the time by good players. I waste bad players all the time. I don't see and overpopulation of hybrid spec Sorcs. It seems to me that there are a bunch of different classes that have a bunch of different skills, some are powerful skills, some are not. You have to play smarter sometimes instead of saying the class is OPed. Try an interupt. Try teaming up on a guy. Where's the proof of this? Where are the Youtube vids of lvl 30 Sorcs/Sages laying waste to lvl 45 toons in warzones? I do well in PVP cause I play my *** off! I use every trick in my bag to make sure I win and that's how it should be. Here's the situational mistake I see players make against me in PVP all the time.... If you'd like the mystery of why you're getting wasted by Sorc/Sages all the time read no further. I'm on the edge of the battle. I cast Crushing Darkness, Affliction, and Death Field on you as you're attacking my teammate. You're already at 90% health. You then start your attacks on me. I interrupt your main skill, which you most likely lead with, and proceed to FL you to death because my DOTs have already got you down to 50% health and one of my teammates has also targeted you. You die. "GD Sorcs are overpowered" I see in /general. So you attacked me after I blindsided you (not a Sorc specific ability) and tried to rush me at 50%ish HP while my teammate and I destroy you and because my main DPS ability has a big flashy light it's my classes fault for being OP... Similarly let me explain a situation I find myself in quite a bit. I'm running though a WZ. Suddenly I'm stunned by a stealthed Operative. I'm bubbled so that'll help a bit... I wait out the first stun and it lifts as I'm at 75% health. I pop a heal, stim, and both my relics. I'm stunned again. I can't break cause even though I thought it might my cool down from hasn't finished from the last time the Operative wasted me. Another enemy player joins in the fun. I’m stunned again. I die. These are normal PVP interactions. There’s nothing OP’d about them. You shouldn’t be able to take out any character when you start your assault from a position of weakness. If you're looking to spam two buttons all day and are under the impression that as you lvl up those two buttons should just get better and better until those two buttons are the best at whatever class abilities those buttons are used with... that's just not how MMOs are anymore. This is a modern MMO. Play more. Read more. Level up. Gear up. Try to have fun.
  6. I wanna see a screen shot of that.

  8. This information is amazing (almost too amazing) but I think I have the dumb now... Also, THANK YOU!
  9. Here here! Huttball is a PITA game and saying "Oh, you should just play Republic" isn't the answer (or even a remotely good one) I think the reason we can't choose our game in WZ is because of the lack of PVP population per server. Some servers would never build a 16 man queue for Huttball of you could choose not to play it and that means... Yup. REMOVE IT! PVP Warzones shouls be about PVP! If you want to make a Gamezone then do that. There's a difference betweem Alderaan, Voidstar, and Failball.
  10. I truly beleive the only reason Sorcs get such a bad rap is because they're the most visable player in the game. If healer had 20 foot high glowing plumes of heals we'd hear "NERF HEALER", " HEALER ARE OP" all day. In most threads you never hear anyone mention the sage cause they throw little brown pebbles and aren't noticed. I was surprised to see the werd "Sage" in this thread a couple times. I play a Sorc and I get CRUSHED buy all the classes sometimes. Sometimes I crush them. I think it's mostly skill. Don't you?
  11. Oowww. Deep burn and so well thought out. I'll think twice before entering in a contest of wit with you again sir.
  12. So... I wanted to say I've been playing SWTOR for a couple weeks and I'm really having fun. I'm part of a good guild. I like the gameplay. I like PVP. I appreciate the time invovled in making a new game and keeping up with patches and fixes in the beginning weeks. I have fun and frustrations each day I play. Some of the patch fixes so far I think have been well founded. Good job guys. Keep it up. Also, please don't nerf Sorcs... #thatisall
  13. Sometimes playing the game is about... playing. Have fun dude. Collect some good feeling and but em in storage.
  14. Like so? http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201ZfoMMzMZfMcRsMkrc.1
  15. Be gentle. It's my first time... http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201ZfoMrdoZfMcRsMkr.1
  16. If by simple you mean 4 rows of buttons and constant group HP tracking coupled careful buff monitoring and a complex rotation. I don't think any of the classes are really "simple" but I think tanks would be the easiest. I haven't played em in SWTOR but in most other games they're very survivable and fun.
