Quzarx Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 (edited) Last night I set out to prove that the dps sage is balanced. http://i.imgur.com/Yw1qf.jpg Edit: Easier to view image: http://i.imgur.com/3po0s.jpg Reasons why the sage is balanced: Sages have no burst damage. Sages can't kill anything. Sages cannot kill people with guard. Sages can't cc anything because every ability spams cc and fills resolve bars. I have yet to hit 1,000,000 damage, protection needs nerfed so that I can. We still lost the warzone. I only did more than the top 3 dps combined, not the top 5.

Brimmer Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 All in all the sorc/sage is just over powered. God mode shield The best healer The best CC The best escape skills Fairly good damage - not the best for spikes but it hits decent numbers non-stop which makes up for the loss of spike damage. -------------------------------------- shield cooldown (dps) -> 1min shield cooldown (healer) -> 30 seconds can't place shield on person for 1minute after each cast to said person. ^ balanced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeckO_Icaza Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I always reserve judgment when it comes to this stuff. I like to observe consistent performance but when I see Sorc pulling 700k dmg AND 400k heals consistently. Well yeah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimhand Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 every sentinel/marauder looking at the picture went like this when he saw those: I know I did! Seriously though the OP is being sarcastic. The only reason his team lost was because of the Sorcs on the other side have a bajillion healing, on a bunch of Warriors (and there being 2 tanks to Guard). E-bay has sarcasm detectors for sale.

Calista_ZK Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 All in all the sorc/sage is just over powered. God mode shield ---> LOL just lol against a class with burst, or if anyone with brains gets us focused,anyway, it has a CD... The best healer, granted if specced, but not if DPS spec The best CC ----> interrupt anyone? yes you have it The best escape skills ------> which can be countered, and which have CDs Fairly good damage - not the best for spikes but it hits decent numbers non-stop which makes up for the loss of spike damage. -------------------------------------- shield cooldown (dps) -> 1min shield cooldown (healer) -> 30 seconds can't place shield on person for 1minute after each cast to said person. ^ balanced corrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idowork Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I wonder how many people read the title and were like "yeah, bout time we got a post telling the truth about how balanced we are! " only to be slapped in the face with trickery. I lol'ed Seriously bioware can a guy just do more damage and healing than the next 5 combined? Rather than a measly 3? IM A FRICKIN JEDI!!

Brimmer Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 corrected God mode shield ---> LOL just lol against a class with burst, or if anyone with brains gets us focused,anyway, it has a CD... I have a sage thank you....and no the shield isn't crazy strong but we can use it in little to no time between. The best healer, granted if specced, but not if DPS spec Try healing as a commando scoundrel, and sage in healing, then as dps spec...the sage just puts out better heals. The best CC ----> interrupt anyone? yes you have it Not all classes have ranged CC / or decent range abilities / or even knockbacks yet the sage has all 3. This isn't what makes them over powered though - it's just one of their strengths. The best escape skills ------> which can be countered, and which have CDs That is if your CC breaker is off it's 2min or 1.5min (spec'd) CD. It even beats the Ops/scoundrel incombat stealth since unless you're able to remove every single dot you're out of the stealth in a second or two. Fairly good damage - not the best for spikes but it hits decent numbers non-stop which makes up for the loss of spike damage. The class dps/CC/escape aren't over powered; strong yes, but not OP. What is OP is their shield which makes all their other abilities seem stronger than they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you might have been close to 1 million damage done if Taunt/Challenging call (and the BH equivalent) weren't so overpowered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qanlayeni Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 You lost, which kinda sums it up really. You can clearly see most of their team i melee, and had 2 decent healers, and you are a AOE spec sage, what do you think is going to happen?
