with all the problems dcd's are causing(ie merc) I rather not have a new dcd(for tactics/ap that is) and just double down on the dmg. -rail shot back to 30m. flame sweep no longer triggers accelerator. -blood trackers bonus of 3% against blooding targets up to 8-10%. rail shot no longer refreshes bleed. - particle accelerator can trigger ever 4-5 seconds instead of 6 OR revert it back to how it originally was. with magnetic blast having a 45% chance and rocket punch having a 60% chance to reset the rail shot. ap/original pyrotech paid for its big spike with low def. give or take i feel thats where we should get back to. for pyro i would look to improve raw mitigation in flame suit and insulated mats to put pyro armor values(as in armor only) somewhere in between shield tech and ap. so 10-15% to armor and dot protection and 10% to internal and elemental damage. pyro shield being exclusive to pyro also needs to be considered. this would be my attempt at a quick fix but like others have said the problems are bigger then that. we lost too many moves and the devs dont look like they know where they want to take the class. shoulder cannon in particular needs to be redesigned. i mean how does searing wave(another bad change) NOT spread dots, ffs it doesnt even apply dots. i been back for about a month and i still cant get over just how much they gave merc.

so bad

wat about the vid of fight in the cave naked kill trading? why isnt that here?

In reality the only classes that are good in huttball are juggernaut/consular/inq. Everyone else has the same problems u have. Or do u think ur the only one that gets hit with tons of knockbacks and stuns? Yea i have grapple on my pt but when i hook u i commit to the fight, im not gonna throw a flash bang and run the hell away.

cause u still have the flash bang. We all know that consular and inq are gonna get nerfed so instead of asking for op crap that cloak classes shouldnt have u should just get better. Like i said on a previous post, bioware didnt have a clue when they designed the classes.

thats exactly what he wants. He wants to be able to hide until someone is about to die, use the gap closer, spike and then recloak to sit and wait for his cds and do it again. When u look at the classes from a whole alot of the things we argue about shouldnt even be an issue because alot of it comes from terrible design. IE dmg dealers with healing abilities and hybirds with access to everything.

Last time i fought shadow i didnt get stun locked. Whats ur point?

Ur freaking cloaked, thats ur gap closer. Get better and it wouldnt be a problem.

how about giveing more objective based medals then? 4 medals and afk isnt gonna encourage objective play.

it never will be viable. The engine wont allow it. The only thing i can see them doin in regards to pvp is just sc****** any kind of world pvp and just pump out tons of new warzones. Yes i am i big supporter of open world fighting but its just not gonna happen in this game.

General Players can now build credit towards the Battle for Ilum daily and weekly missions by playing Warzones. this tells me that they have given up on ilum all together. Nobody is gonna go to ilum post-patch, think about it. Stand by republic base pulling people one at a time or just get it in wz.

i love how people are quick to try to blame EA like bioware had no say in anything goin on. They had alot of time, a big budget and an ip that offers almost limitless possibilities. U cant honestly say bioware didnt drop the ball on this one.

yep people talk about wow killer, well that game is gonna be the swtor killer. After watching some of the action in the end it and thinking about my experiences in ilum i cant wait for my sub to run out lol.

adding ranks to pvp changes nothing. Its still the same 3 wz's with the same people.

this For me it almost feels like a xbox game at this point since i really dont have to talk to anyone. I load in, que and get the daily and log out. once u have epics whats the point of continueing? In swg the main reason i stayed as long as i did was the community, all the drama and crazyness kept it interesting but here we dont have that. Que up fight win/lose and do it again.
