Hi guys,
i am the new guy, i started playing 2 weeks ago.
It was immediately clear to me that i would play the IA, now i have a sniper lvl 19 and an operative lvl 25. I like them both and they´re super fun top play, however...
...i started reading alot in the forums and other places, because I wanted to know how competetive I would be in the end, and I got to admit that the picture you guys are painting is really dark:
Operative:
after the nerf, (dps-wise) he seems to be unplayable, no damage, no other important skills every other class appearently seems to have.
Appearently his healing also is behind other classes, also with the incoming nerf of some major stat (10%)(i dont know the english name for the stat), it goes further down the hill.
Plus no one seems to be happy to see an operative in a raid (at least thats what i hear).
Sniper:
good burst, but that seems to be it, no escape skills and no skills for closing the distance, very squishy (but my guess is, thats just the IA:D), also everyone seems to say that he is only good when left alone.
I guess you see where I am going with this, is it really that bad?
Will everyone kill me while laughing his butt off?
Because right now i feel that both classes are viable, at least in the current sate i am in.
The operative seems to lack a little damage buteveryone i ask keeps telling me to wait until i unlock acid blade and other stuff.
Thats totally okay with me, i really like the class, and i would love to keep playing,
even if they lack skill,how i see it, it will be just up to me to compensate for that with my own skill:D
but if there is nothing to compensate because theres is nothing i can do, i would certainly think about rerolling..
thx in advance
