  1. Hello everyone I am not really an old or experienced player but from someone recently came from other mmorpg games I wanted to share my opinion. That would be great if you guys add up your thoughts aswell. *When I started playing Powertech / VG, I was REALLY hoping for a non-force user going toe-to-toe with other classes in melee range. But from what I experienced, you don't feel like a melee, or a ranged, not even a hybrid for most of the time. It seems like you have a blaster in your hand to be used as a "filler" in your rotation, and most of your melee attacks coming from a magical glove so called "prototype". After playing a while I switched to juggernaut in disappointment but I still couldn't get over my powertech, just dreaming how cool it would be with an actual melee focused rework. As far as I know (correct me if I am wrong) there are also melee troopers wielding vibro weapons in The Old Republic. *Continuing melee discussion from other perspective, since this in an RPG game (excluding MMO here), charging to my opponents with a blaster gun / rifle on my hand really feels off. You are moving through the lightsabers with a gun or whatever in your hand. I know this is a game but it really disconnects me from game-reality or logic whatever. *Character progression in terms of skills are really all over the place, you acquire a TON of similar skills just doing the same aoe in different shapes. While other characters were getting signature moves like charge, you have to hit higher levels to acquire such utilities. *Defense and sustain in both PVP / PVE is really incompetent when you compare it with other classes. Even though it is able to deal decent or mid - to - high tier damage, in terms of defense you are not even at the level of a hatred assassin(not mentioning about cloak). Which is an assassin after all while Powertech / VG is being described as a melee wrecking ball. I am not an expert in terms of class balance management, nor can I evaluate what it takes to rework a class with a whole new weapon and mechanics but I can tell you that this class can be one of the most fun in entire game. I mean it has the potential to be there. I am really hoping to start a decent discussion if other people feel the same way I do, or if it contradicts with how you feel about the class. So maybe I can look from your perspective if you think this class is ok.
