Commando and Mercenary healers deserve to gloat. Although I would get just as mad in your position. They're like on the bottom of the food chain and if they beat you, It was well earned.

Offensively you're a bit mediocre in voidstar. You choose to kill the sniper over the healer in the beginning. Mind you that sorcerer just ran into your kill range. You can tell from right there the experience level just dropped. Second, at the bridge part there was no need to 3v1. He's purposely distracting so their team can reinforce. Defensively you were on top of a lot of things. Targeting between the healer and capper was great. I watched up to the point where you popped Valorous Call on an assassin. I don't know why, fraps lag? Overall you did kill your fair share, but only because they were in your kill zone. I suggest turning on the markers that show your opponents classes. As well as learn to mark the healers if no one is doing them. I admit sometimes I don't mark healers myself, mainly because I knew early it was going to be a faceroll victory. Keep up the good work. PoT5 needs less braindead dps.

For awhile there I thought you were going to go all Dr. Seus

You're wasting everyones time.

Sins and shadows for sure. They have quite a bit of utility from stealth alone. Add that with the sexy hybrid spec. You got yourself a 1v2 dueling machine. Ofc its tougher with a healer, but its not impossible. Mind you the class isn't OP. It is however easier to recover from a mistake with an assasin/shadow. For one they toss out their stuns and cc's like hotcakes. Compare to other classes that hold off to the right moment, this class has the utility belt batman would be envious of.

Please tell me the "subject to change" is not just a formality and there are more changes coming in 2.5 What of the survivability of range classes in arena? When are we bringing operative heals in line with the other classes? I really hope there are more changes to the buffs and nerfs in this coming patch. All the feedback gathered can't only amount to just those miniscule tweaks.

Oh wow another post about the relic bug! Make 10 and you get 1 free! Tell me more that hasn't been said before.

Former republic players sold out. They rerolled and now main Imperials. Buttwipes. Can't handle the challenge. So yeah thinks they're still "pro" at the game.

I use to be able to land those knockbacks, but for some reason I've been having latency issues where I keep seeing sentinels/marauders glitch up and my knockback not push them. I use to chalk it up to lag but it is occuring more noticeably. 21-30 ms, and I'm like why are they rubberbanding?!?

You have to differentiate between space combat pvp, and warzone pvp. Traditional PvPer's aren't getting much so far in this new expansion.

I was wondering if the NY cantina PVP discussions will be on the agenda. Will there be dialogue as to the progress of class balance? I would like to attend. I have not been to one. Is it mainly a marketing event/hype-fest? I want to go there and feel like there are constructive debates and discussions happening (in regards to pvp). 2.5 is suppose to bring about class balance, it would be nice to get firsthand knowledge at the cantina. There are a lot of options on a sunday night in manhattan. I'm just wondering if going there is worthwhile.

I came into this post thinking someone had the gusto to create an acutal level 55 CONSULAR. I was going to give them a pat on the back.

Your viability is heavily based on the melee in your comp. My constructive criticism is, if you can introduce more versatile outlook where you're paired with different comps. It'll be worth looking over. It will not only show you have the skills to play your class well, as well as acknowledge the limits of other classes/spec. In other words, without them you're any other mediocre sorcerer. I believe there is potential for a good analysis, but you can't do it if you just cookie-cutter smash into everything you do. Throw in some range classes. What happens when you get paired with another sorcerer. How would you react? Are your skills able to adapt to those circumstances? What of the other players that do not have the graces of running your composition group? Tough luck? If that's the case you really don't need to post. Hybrid specs are everywhere and yes like your title says, we are all "grasping for viability".

It sure is taking them forever to bring news on the balance changes.

OP has a point, putting him down just makes you look like an ***. No, your remarks aren't witty.

Originally I wrote a really long thought out post, arm-chair analyzing the operative kit and how it pertains to the healing mentality, but it got a bit long. Operatives need nerfs. It is their kit that is causing a problem. Not their numbers. Their kit makes them shine far better in arena. Unless we want to cookie-cutter their kit over to the other two healing specs. They need the nerfs. (You can nerf their numbers but it'll mess up their viability). Although it certainly wouldn't hurt to readjust things on sorcerers, but mercenaries need everything thrown at them. They're just too unloved.

Depends, if you play smash or operative heals it is balanced.

Come to think of it, I do get ganked by an abnormal amount of stealthies than any other role. Die, don't die; don't care. You're crap if you fail gank me lol. Although they should get a debuff icon that says "Ran like a little *****" when they use vanish.

No, level it the normal way. Stop asking for shortcuts.

What the person above me said.

Dem republicans. Well its one of the things you agreed to when rolling on a pvp server. Honestly, it's not that big of a problem. However if OWPvP do manage to get revived. They had make sure they don't pull the same faction imbalance bullcrap like on illum.

Allow all force users to use double-blade lightsabers :< It was in the video!!!! I wanna dual-wield double blade lightsabers

It was a giant orgy of an event.

I thought the same thing when they started adding a lot of perks to the Ships. But honestly all they really need is a Global Gen. Chat.

I read it, but I think you're comparing a game with initial launch to one that has been around for 2 years. So ofc population and level diversity is going to be great there. Long-*** daily grinds are a chore. They are not fun, contrary to what you think, you can't make that fun. They didn't get it right either. And do put a tl;dr for the others.
