Draexnael Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Wow you are an idiot. So many classes carry the ball better. However, it is nice to be carrying the ball pop Undying Rage and walk through all the fire while everyone else is just standing there..... kinda funny and its the only laugh you get out of huttball. Then you get pulled back and die! True story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxidenstore Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) I think I like the idea of having immunity from knockback after charging, even if it is only 5 seconds or so. That gives me enough time to do some damage before "LOL KNOCKBACK" They will probably add this to Juggernaut since, you know, Juggernauts are struggling and marauders are perfectly fine. According to them. Edited January 16, 2012 by Luxidenstore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combined with a snare I'd show other classes how it is to be knocked into fire/acid all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrpak Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 SWTOR has a sniper, who has force charge and cc immunity. Ok with me, change Undying Rage from 99% damage reduction (for 50% hp? really?) to 5 sec cc immunity.I charge in, and have at least 5 sec uninterrupted every 90 secs, when I can have a laugh and use my skills. And not "run up to the target to save on force charge for the knockback". Juggernaut gets mobility fixes. Reading the devs post I was thinking, does he know, at all, that marauder has even worse mobility problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memoriesofprey Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Admittedly, I don't like the idea of giving us knockbacks or pulls. I think the lack of those things makes our gameplay that much different. Now, some sort of anchor ability- that would be sweet. At this point, a geared Level 50 Marauder can do wonders with the ball through lucky Resolve tics, Saber Ward, Force Charge, Predation, and Undying Rage. I'm not sure if this will be the same once the gear is fairly equal all 'round. Edited January 16, 2012 by memoriesofprey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercato Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 less push more pull plz I wouldn't mind having some kind of pull myself either, in fact it probably makes more sense for our class to have a pull since we are a melee class. Then I could stand near the green pool/fire and troll pull people into and watch them die MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadinaxx Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 solo run cap with marauder in carnage. not like I couldnt do this alot, but still, we have powerful tools. Just wait until you die without ever touching the ground, while getting knocked back, pushed, yanked and choked I just chock that up to being popular Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to some classes that are "amazing" its not "fine" ;p Getting Tracer spammed whilst my charge is on cd makes me rage!!! Dispise how easy other classes are. I actually make it a mini-crusade to **** any player just spamming their classes OP ability and camp them all WZ just to make myself feel better.

Shadinaxx Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Vid of running support as ball carrier, but the video codec I used (despite it saying that it was widescreen high def) made it look like I was recording through a toilet paper tube, lol But yea, we are very strong in huttball, but as a solo "ganker" we are not suited for. Currently anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axcys Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I wouldn't want to be any other class in huttball. When you spec into predation in anni you can basically mount with the ball and UR through the fire. You can also jump into the pit on purpose and charge the next rez wave and UR across the line. There really isn't a better class for huttball I really don't know what you people are complaining about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthmorbous Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 maras suck at huttball. but i hate huttball anyway so i always abandon group at begining and requeue in hope to get a real non sport childish PvP were maras just rock. do that OP, you wont regret it.

Sayc Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Getting Tracer spammed whilst my charge is on cd makes me rage!!! Is vanish on cd? Do you have nearby LOS? Do you have 30stacks of fury for predation, to get out of range? Do you have frenzy up to get 30 stacks? Are you carnage traited, can you snare the merc to get back in range, or obfuscate from range? Are you rage traited, do you have obliterate up? Did you have CoP/saber ward up to mitigate the damage? I actually ran out of cooldowns last night in a huttball match, it amazed me. I almost always have *something* to pop when in trouble. I'd prefer a knockback immunity before a knockback. And a pull before a knockback, if immunity is too much. I do not understand why people want a knockback on a melee class. Edited January 16, 2012 by Sayc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viscerus Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 IMHO the people crying about marauder in huttball are the epitome of L2P. Marauder is one of the best ball carrying classes. I can pick up from mid and score faster then any other class. All in all, huttball is a zone that marauders excel at unless you're simply getting facerolled. In which case, what class is going to change anything? You are totally full of it. No class can score faster than Assassin or Sorc. They have knockbacks, stuns, SPRINT. And their sprint is far faster than we run with predation up. Sorc can even pull friendly ball carriers to them. Marauders are garbage in huttball compared to other classes. This is another Elite Lamer post by someone who wants to claim they are better than everyone else. You spend a lot of your time running to attack people because you ahve to save your force charge for the inevitable knockback. Then you just get knocked back or pulled again. I know everyone gets knocked back on this map. I just want to be able to do something too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
