No one likes to lose. We all enjoy winning. My question is, why do you que for PVP? TO have fun, or just to grind for gear? Me, I do it for fun. The benefits I receive for participating are a benefit to me. My server is very small, the PVP is very competitive there, Rivals have been made because we see the same people all the time playing on both sides. We win, we lose but the one constant thing is we have fun doing it regardless.

I don't have to win to have fun. I think gamers these days are just to spoiled. My server is very low pop, we win, we lose. How you spend your time is entirely up to you. My post is because I would like to see people have as much fun as i do. Negativity is something tied to gaming to much these days. When did gamers grow up to be so angry all the time? Your response's pretty much prove my point.

I enjoy PVP. I don't have to be rewarded, the best class, the top damage, the top heals or objectives. I play because it is fun. This forum is full of negative people crying about every little thing. People want things to easily these days. I have enjoyed all the changes since 1.2 even after my class got nerfed. Video games are supposed to be fun, if you don't enjoy playing a video game then maybe you should find another hobby. Do you remember how difficult old Nintendo games were? This generation of gamers that cater to xbox live kids just baffle me.

100% correct.

I honestly think the OP is confused with the combination of maybe having encountered two Powertechs in the same warzone, one being Pyro, the other Tank. Tank is very very solid with a lot of nasty utility. Also a side note, Pyro and Tank share the same armor coloration, just how Mercs do with heals and dps. The main problem with all the QQ and nerf this class is people get confused and think we are this mix of both, we are not. Each spec honestly needs its own color variant, merc dps, pt dps, merc heals, pt tank. The same confusion is made with assassin tanks.

Also please note that our only def CD is only 25% damage reduction, the worst of all tank classes and we only have one. Please don't confuse a pyro with a pure def spec'd tank. What tools do you speak of aside from grapple hook? In order for us to use our charge you have to be def spec. We have two stuns, electro dart and carbon freeze. Our main dps is a rotation of flame burst and uppercut which are both considered mid range, followed by a rail shot, then some rapid shots. After the patch we over heat very easily so maintaining your heat is a must. Not any pyro tech is good. That is like saying all marauders are good.

Yes we were nerfed. We received changes to how much our procs go off to use railshot, we can no longer spam three in a row but now two. The damage increases is do to fixes to the expertise, which is across the board for all classes.

So basically, the blues are better. Wow.

Bringing this back from the dead. If I drop bio-chem for another crafter profession, How could i continue to heal myself and use a 60 min buff, outside of the pvp vendor bought items?

Sadly a lot of people feel this way. I am a powertech, I have barely felt any nerf to damage at all with exp fixes, but staying alive in a WZ is something of luck. You almost need two healers per one person. A lot of healers on my server have already quit at the frustration.

Lots of people feel the same other then the fan boys and the FOTM classes. Seriously they didn't even touch the assassin tanks who are destroying the game balance completely.

Marauders are wet noodles now. When they pop all their def cd's just kite them for 5 secs or stun them, then start beating on them more. Their damage isnt even that great, it was better before the patch.

Since everyone takes and dishes a ton of damage in this patch assassin tanks are left on top as kings since they received very minor tweaks if at all. On my server people have already started to stack 4 on a que. Last que had 7 on one team with a variation of sorcs as well. These stacked ques are rolling pre-made guilds on both sides. I don't understand why BW did nothing about it. Lol to all the people who thought marauders would be kings in this patch. I am not saying nerf them, but the damage and damage mitigation needs to be in line with the other tanks in this game. Bring on the flamers.

meh these changes are odd

Ohhhhh but I did finish the 9/9 last night too

I got the weekly yesterday and was only 33/150, i dropped it last night, now I cant pick it up.

So I am able to get the daily 0-3 wins, but after that I get no option to pick up any other quest, people are saying in general they can get the weekly arms quest still yet when I try to access the PVP terminal it says ineligible for conversation. Anyone else have this issue?

this is epic suck, this was the only reason for me to stay, now........

Funny. What spec is that? I find myself using incen missle less and less.

Who knows what BW thinks when they started making changes. Getting my darn biometric alloy was a pain in my butt losing roll after roll. You mean to tell me wasting all that time to make a reusable just to take it away from me? Garbage.

I don't know about you, but I PVP for fun. What else matters? Do you need a reward for everything you do? Spoiled xbox kids.

I do miss my gernades. Well, I guess I answered my own question. My alt will be my stim slave.

Is their any benefits to keeping it on my main versus a alt? I ask because I have mastered 3 professions on one toon. Armormech, Cybertech, Biochem which I all dropped for Biochem for pvp. I still have all the remaining mats so I can re lvl Armor or Cyber at anytime I choose. Is there going to be any biochem only benefits vs have a fully augmented set of armor stat wise?

Correction, Commandos and Mercs are the paladins

How exactly do Powertechs need a nerf? Because we have a 10 second 25% damage mitigation and a single target pull? Oh the the heavens we need a nerf!!! So I guess what you are really saying is Sages/Sorcs need a nerf.
