dreadkhan Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 That is to say, in the right players hands (most likely not me), which class has the strongest abilities regardless of difficulty and gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyrandis Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 (edited) That is to say, in the right players hands (most likely not me), which class has the strongest abilities regardless of difficulty and gear? Actually I would think tanks. Between using pulls effectively, knockbacks, intervene, Taunt/AoE taunt, and guard they are very powerful to bring to a team, especially with a healer. Edit: With all the QQ about burst lately the tank/healer combo is going to be pretty hard to beat. Edited January 21, 2012 by Kyrandis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illwill- Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 That is to say, in the right players hands (most likely not me), which class has the strongest abilities regardless of difficulty and gear? For...what? CC, damage, healing, survivability? OPs/Scoundrels are getting gutted (rightfully so, lol) but right now, for burst dmg and fast kills, they are on top. Best healers...well, a bit subjective but commandos/bhs are imo the hardest to take down. Best CC...imo juggs and their carebear counterpart. Survivability...heavy armor healers, people with force speed, tanks...people with "vanish". So, who's not the strongest? That'd be snipers and gunslingers, especially if we're using cover-based builds! (joking, snipers are decent if you disregard for the broken crouch/cover system...although, snipers could use a little love even after ability lag is removed...if it ever is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhak Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Sorc or Merc Mercs press 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ect. That is not called a high skill cap. That is called the lowest skill cap in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubyooC Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Mercs press 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ect. That is not called a high skill cap. That is called the lowest skill cap in the game. Maybe it is as high as his skillcap goes LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kokkos Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Mercs press 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ect. That is not called a high skill cap. That is called the lowest skill cap in the game. You would be really **** if you did that, and lower your dmg output and utility by ****loads. But i agree that Merc/commando is easy to play. Of the classes i have tried it needs the least abilities to be effective. And spamming 1 is not being effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is called the lowest skill cap in the game. A little buff to the Merc equivalent of Full-Auto will fix that. Bioware intended them to do Grav Round, Grav Round, Grav Round, Demolition Round, Grav Round, Grav Round, High Impact Bolt. All this with 30% change to proc a Full-Auto 25% increased damage. Problem is that Full-Auto is a 3 second Channel that does 2.3k on my Commando that does less than 2 grav rounds. Edit: although it does less damage you should use it anyways because for commandos it has a chance to restore 2 Ammo if Hit 1 & Hit 3 crit. 1 Otherwise.

dreadkhan Posted January 22, 2012 Author Share Posted January 22, 2012 was looking for all around best. In my experience, jugg and powertech seem to be really well balanced. jugg takes a bit more skill. I read that marauders are really great in a skilled micromanagers hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerkics Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I would say tanks probably but im biased since i play one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabbathius Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Easiest BY FAR are Sorc and Merc. Out of those two, Sorcerer is an insane force multiplier for his team, while Merc is actually rather useless. Hardest BY FAR I feel is the Marauder. They have extremely messy rotations and finicky resource management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than them id say Assassin/Shadow has a high skill cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesperr Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) yes they are. marauder/sent is extremely good, there just no good ones. Other than them id say Assassin/Shadow has a high skill cap. I wish I knew how to assassin effectivly. Marauders are good though, I've seen bad (and thus useless) and seen good. I dont want to see good marauders in the enemy team... Mercs press 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ect. That is not called a high skill cap.

AramakEffect Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I have seen somepretty epic Powertechs. And a ton of ****** ones. Also, whoever said merc is 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, you have no idea what you are talking about. It's 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhealThar Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I found Assassin very easy to play. I played a glad Rogue in WoW, it pales in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatchlessGlory Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Highest skill cap? I assume you're talking about which class is hardest to master and perform well at. In my opinion Sniper/Gunslinger is the hardest to master and perform at a tier 1 level. Followed by Sentinel/Marauder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
