I have posted a screenshot in this very thread showing me in tank spec hitting a 25k... Sure it was prob a PVE nub I hit but still I regularly hit around 15k+ with DPS gear.

Sorc's are trying to divert the attention from themselves.

Having story missions alone provide you with sufficient XP to level up properly has been one of the best things BW have ever done. I level'ed every class (16 AC's) before this change via every available method, but I didn't finish all the stories because of the need to repeatedly grind through the tedious side quests. But now I have actually started going through the stories I had missed or not completed on new characters and am actually enjoying it.

Having multiple healers in a WZ is a matchmaking issue and not a healers are too OP issue.

Yeah same, I just find it more fun...

Tank spec is my favourite DPS spec for Jug. http://postimg.org/image/6epexw291/ Yeah I know my prot is very low, but we had no healers so I decided to have fun and just focus on DPS'ing.

I loved Operative healing when it was good, and even Merc healing in regs is fun. But in ranked I don't find getting shut down and not being able to heal anyone much at all to be a particularly fun experience. If the other two classes get buffed up to be balanced with Sorc then they will all be viable and fun.

I am talking about 4's, have you tried using an OP/Merc in ranked against 3 competent DPS? It's hardly an enjoyable experience, only sorc healing is a viable choice for it and if it is nerfed then they all will be painful to play and as such there will be significantly less healers in ranked.

Or healers just won't queue because they are too weak. The other healing classes need to be buffed to be more competitive with sorc.

People find PVP'ing in a PVP match fun, strange I know.

If sorc heals get nerfed, there will be no viable healers.

Come on this is completely absurd and blatantly false. If you face competent players focusing you you're guaranteed to die(eventually), the only way you can survive that is with a stronger DPS presence on your team that also peels for you or a good tank. As a sorc healer(or any healer), your team mates make a big difference as to how well you perform, for example if your DPS are sub par and theirs are not you are in trouble. The issue here is L2P.

Something similar happens in my stronghold also.

DPS who struggle to do 1k are revolting and there are far more of them than there are healers.

Absolutely agree with this thread 100%.

So sorc healers should be balanced upon the assumption that they will always have at least 1 other healer and a tank guarding them? That is a matchmaking issue and not a class balance issue.

Didn't think I would have to explain it but... the whole point of the picture is the fact that I took 1 million damage.. EXACTLY 1 million damage and no more no less. Everything else is irrelevant.

I was playing Republic side, Pubs need Sage's as they are. Seriously though Jugg's/sorcs/maras are a lot to heal through when your team don't know what a CD is, or even basic positioning, kiting, peeling etc... or even how to play their class at all

Thank you for your reply, interesting points you make. I did actually try MM out again and it wasn't as bad as I thought, the worst part is the penetrating blasts nerf, but it is still playable.

Since the MM nerf I have started playing Virulence again but im not entirely sure what stats to go for, currently I am running full power augments but I was wondering would alacrity be worth getting?

I don't know how the OP wants to count things, I still undeniably got that hit in the WZ but because it was a final hit I got robbed 3k in the WZ stat, but does that mean I didn't hit 26k?

Swept Guardian Reg's Biggest hit: 26,614 http://postimg.org/image/qw8nwsfuh/ (see kill blow in chat box)

If that is regular hutball the acid is so weak now, it hasn't scaled up with the increase in HP through the patches.

Now that MM Sniper is trash the only way you can get bursty ranged DPS is Arsenal Merc, that's probably why there is an increase. Also I myself have relatively recently learned how amazing smash Jug is in 4.0, trying it after seeing all the posts on the forums and hearing friends say how good it was. I liked the Mara version but figured Jug wouldn't be all that much better, after all you get some neat cc immunity on Mara, but I was very pleasantly surprised.
