Wingzeron Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I used to shine pre 1.3. I had awesome dmg, burst and more, but now I feel really weak again. I get the 300k with trouble and not every game like I ued to get 400k-450k dmg. I really think the surge nerf has ****ed it up alot. Also the frozen water nerf makes me hold back. I don't know what to do? I can't remember my old stats before 1.3, but this patch has really made things a hell for me on my Marauder.. I also miss 3 badges every single game.. Its no more fun for me like this. I want awsners from Bioware.. I'm really close to cancel my subscription and I really want to stay and play the game.. pre 1.3 was awesome, but now its just not worth it. What should I stack now? power or surge?

CrazyAl Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 its not like BW is picking on you its a change that affects every class and lets be honest, surge scaled way better than other stats pre-patch, thats why it was so good to stack, so they fixed it to be more inline with the others sure it sucks, but they didnt do it to spite you and as for the shockfrozen water ... well, if you didnt see that one coming a mile and a half away i think its time for some glasses we just have to hope that they make good on their promise to add more medals for the pure dps classes to get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Ilum gives now even better Valor.. so whats the point? I feel once underpowered again.. sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xDreegan Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 That's the risk you take playing an MMO. Now that I lost my self heal I keep plenty of WZ medpacs on me. Battles are harder and more intense now. My suggestion is to start rolling Premades with your guild or join one if you're not in one. Catch up on your flashpoints, roll some alts and explore the other classes story. There's more to do than PvP on one class. And since you're a Marauder, the rest should feel like a breeze. Sit back, relax, and enjoy all the game has to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasymodeX Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 and lets be honest, surge scaled way better than other stats pre-patch, thats why it was so good to stack, so they fixed it to be more inline with the others Let's be honest: no it didn't. They did it to curb the "QQ DED QQ" of burst DPS. Note: across the board spike damage reduction is an indirect buff to (1) Healers and (2) Marauders, followed by (3) everyone else.

Tumri Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) It's not a direct advantage to use if you consider that we're reliant on going in and putting out high sustained pressure before being noticed/focused and having to escape. With the surge nerf I'd say we're a bit worse off than before. Operatives were hit hardest obviously but we were one of the classes that was hurt more than the average especially considering we were reliant on Berserk auto-crit DoTs for having annihilation pretend burst(they're DoTs) people. The least effected are ranged DPS. We're still decent IMO. Annihilation obviously was reliant on Surge to a point but not so much that its a huge difference.

Did WZ's yesterday and still did just as well with 20-30 kills, 15'ish KB's, 1 solo kill, and like 2-3 deaths. That's the standard in a match for me with no pocket healer and me usually running around to go kill people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
