  1. Cant believe this worked. I found my laptop's wifi kill shortcut and killed it just as the lanuched started (after UAC prompt), then reenabled wifi and it worked! Great!
  2. I had this issue just now too but it just started working again. Try again.
  3. I have both classes and play as healer for both. Op wins hands down. More mobility Def CDs Minimal cast times Stealth Emergency Heals Only thing sorc has thats better is bubble stun, force speed and extricate (situationally fun but not directly useful in most PvP).
  4. In decadent america west, you make stupid forum post. In Mother Russia, stupid forum post make you!
  5. Agree with almost 100% of the OP's post.
  6. Fair enough then, you are one of the few people actually equipped to talk balance across multiple classes. Not the "I have a level 27 XXXX and its YYY in PvP" type.

    Sorcs in PvP....

    Thanks, not my best I'll admit but remember you only need to perform just well enough to win so I'll take 9/10 for making the OP think it was a serious post. Nerf ops!

    Sorcs in PvP....

    I rolled a marauder (level 15 now) and its SO overpowered and easy to play. I only have 4 abilities which proves the class is for noobs and facerollers and shows the class is easy to play. With only a guild group we OWN random noob pug groups. Its not even funny, they dont stand a chance. I take this as irrefutable evidence that marauders are overpowered. What could level 50 PvP against other teams possibly teach me that this hasnt?
  9. Why on earth would this be a sticky? Wow. Post 1 semi intelligent thing (thats not really super relevant or even intructional) and want it as a sticky? I vote no.
  10. Though your info is correct (people overestimate their ability), your conclusion is invalid and a missunderstanding of the data. Just because people overestimate their ability does NOT mean imbalances do not exist and hence that nerfs/buffs are not required. It simply means that *some* of the complaints can be ignored. The *fact* is that (due to the fact that classes are not all identical), imbalances DO (and in fact must) exist. Your conclusion is just as wrong as the people who are incorrectly claiming that they are amazing and hence class X needs a nerf.
  11. It was an intentionally exaggerated quote to show why exaggerated stories (eg dotting an entire team for 2k dots) have no place in balance discussions. Realistic statement: My deathfield generally crits for 3.8k on 2 people. Exaggerated statement: My deathfield I can spam for 4.5k on 8 people. Realistic statement: I can dot 4 people in 8 seconds, dots hitting for 400-600/second Exaggerated statement: I can dot an entire team with dots hitting for 2k/second Of each of these, 1 statement is constructive and relevant, the other is fiction and should be ignored.
  12. Im not angry (at all in fact), I just think youre wrong and intentionally obfuscating the issues .
  13. Yes yes yes, the sun is always shining. I can hit 8 players for 4.5k at a pop with my deathfield. Great. Lets base discussion around something that happens once every 1000 WZs as its obviously relevant. Never said a way to dot the entire team? Actually, yes, you did, in fact you said that word for word. 3 dots, wow, all instant cast right? No cds? No? Thought not. You are not dotting their entire team before the fight, the fight has started and you are using gcds to dot rather than DD. Not to mention that sorc dots do not hit for 2k/sec. So you are exaggerating about both dotting the entire team and the 2k a tick thing. Once again meaning your point is moot. The point I'm making is not that situations like knocking 4 people off a VS bridge is possible (Ive done it myself), just that its IRRELEVANT as its so vanishingly uncommon as to be a moot point when discussing class balance. So Mr "Positive Polly" (if we are going to be 5 year olds), keep your outliers, freak instances and irrelevant analogies for where they belong, analogies and offhands, not balance discussions where they are simply a distraction and obscurance to the topic in hand.
  14. I'm waiting until you can buy one with an autofire button. Looks way too hard as is.
  15. Seriously? 4 People in a VS bridge, how incredibly bad are the people youre playing against? "Oh look a sorc by the edge of the bridge, lets all run by the gap side". Yes. I would love an ability that is spammable (enitre team) and ticks for 2k a second. On the other hand none exist for sorc/sage so... yeah. Yes, pretty easy to invent skills and corner case situations (eg your VS bridge). More useful is discussing actual gameplay that happens.

    Nerf heals in PVP

    Of course. Not hard though. This guy sounds like he expect to just jam dps buttons until stuff falls over. Tbh, healers with exception of Ops are a joke to kill 1v1 for most DPS classes and the only reason Ops get hard is their manouverability and emergency cast. When I play my jugg I literally follow sorcs and mercs heals around as theyre so damn easy to kill. My basic hits hit then for 1k and I have 3/4 interupts with which to stop them doing anything of use except instants (which are weak). Theyre lucky to get 2/3 heals off before they die. Anyone complaining about heals as a dps is either fighting a guarded healer (ie a 1v2) or an Op, in which case I sympathise (somewhat) however theyre still pretty easy to shut down (ie put into a self heal loop), just not easy to kill solo.

    Nerf heals in PVP

    Pro tip for OP: Go to your ability page. Locate your interrupt. Bind your interrupt. Use your interrupt. Profit. I believe this will help your predicament. If not, try rolling right to left. Sometimes that can help too.
  18. In order of favoritism (although not playtime): 1. 4x Op healer (healing as it should be imo) 2. 50 Sorc Madness/Lightning hybrid (ex healer toon, cant stand sorc healing atm) 3. 50 Jugg Rage/Immortal hybrid (too easy but fun for an hour of epeening) 4. 2x PT pyro-faceroll (joke class but i want the buff)
  19. Excellent post, this sums up my feelings too. The class is playable, just not optimal. A good player on a sorc healer < a good player on another heal class. In high end PvP mobility and defence is king, not output.
