Michaelphoenix Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) I play a shield specced vanguard. Nearly every fight against a sorc goes something like this. 1. I harpoon them to me 2. I attack for a sec and they bounce me back 3. They CC me 4. They use some channeled lightning attk 5. I use my CC break 6. I storm up to them interupting them 7. They channel again 8. i use my normal interupt 9. they try casting again 10. i cryo grenade them 11. they stand there dumbfounded as to why they didnt just face roll me 12. they die all im saying is that they are not as OP as people like to think...they are beatable if you learn to INTERUPT Edited January 17, 2012 by Michaelphoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except I usually save my harpoon as an additional interrupt, and I try to anticipate the force push with "Hold the Line". Of course, mileage will vary. I'll also assume I have yet bumped into a very good Sorc. Most Sorcs I bumped into seems to play as though they are in a Warzone where they have a team to fall back on, and/or don't get interrupted a lot.

Krytycal Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Vanguard/PTs can faceroll easier than sorcs. They're hands down the strongest class in the game atm. This thread is like those operative threads bragging about 3 shotting lowbies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonsAlpha Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) 1. You harpoon me 2. I CC you 3. I instant force lift you after you use your CC breaker 4. I let you sit there for about 6 seconds then I do some damage to you, breaking the force lift, thereby stunning you for 2 seconds 5. I use Force in Balance (you now take 20% more damage from my mind crush) 6. I use telekinetic throw and presence of mind is granted to me 7. I pop 15% expertise, and the highest power relic I have, pop force potency, instant cast mind crush you for a 2 k crit + 400damage per second for 8 seconds. 8. More telekinetic throw and double project, presence of mind re-granted 9. I instantly use telekinetic wave and hit you for 2k damage, you're dead. I did it in 3 less steps than you and in under 20 seconds. Btw I've got force armor up so the first 3 seconds of your attack I absorb.

Zippor Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Did you intentionally miss #3? What CC are we talking about? CC isn't only a stun you know, it could have been a root or snare, hardly anything to use the break for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's besides the point. Your quoted lines implied he used CC's without a reason, yet you clearly missed #3 or you would've quoted that too, or worded your reply differently. And rather to clarify what form of CC, you just made an assumption to pad your argument. So if anything, your post appeared more trollish than the OP's.

Lazorous Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) all im saying is that they are not as OP as people like to think...they are beatable if you learn to INTERUPT People think any class that they can't reliably beat, or are always beaten by, are OP. Not sure there's any way around that. EDIT: Oh, and somehow topping the scoreboards also mean a class is OP.

Edit: Actually your first 5 points might be right. But any good still has a stun, cyclone, knockback, and still tear your face apart. I wish I played the people you play.

But any good still has a stun, cyclone, knockback, and still tear your face apart. I wish I played the people you play. FYI, we have an ability that renders knockback useless. Also, several other defensive abilities makes a difference. It's not always black and white and results will vary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw..I would not use harpoon as the first attack, thats your joker and your gap closer. Torhead's not working for some reason when trying to link to the ability. But it's an Ability Called "Storm" for Vanguards. Kind of like a "Charge" that will interrupt and immobilize for a few seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
