Skuldar Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Exactly.... sorcs can have a rotation that makes them force neutral, they don't actually drain any force and therefore don't have to stop dps or regen. There is ZERO reason, none, for sorcs not to be on the same 100 force system that assassins are on. They can spam a few abilities, keep spamming light ones or wait to do heavy ones. It is the same reason they are by far the best healer, can maintain extreme dps in pve and unlike EVERY OTHER CLASS they can continue to spam their best abilities in pvp for a LOOOOOOONG time. Everything you said there either applies to pretty much every class or is just flat out not true. Name one class that cannot spec into a rotation that does decent DPS but does not deplete their resource. Sorcerers/Sages cannot indefinitely spam their best abilities; they can only do that for a good ability that is not their best DPS, just like Tracer Missile/Grav Round for Mercenaries/Commandos. In both cases, the "spammed" ability must be mixed in with others in order to achieve optimum DPS. Sorcs and Sages have a bigger pool because they are the casting classes and they have a slower resource regen rate. They do have a simpler resource to manage, but it is also less flexible. As others have mentioned, it's not so much that certain classes are significantly overpowered, it's that they are less complicated to play. A certain portion of players lean toward greater challenge and will play whatever can potentially dominate though it requires enormous effort to play expertly. Another portion just wants to get easy kills and will lean toward classes that don't take as much effort but can get good results. The latter demographic is bigger than the former.

Valdos Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Why do people always say that 1v1 never really happens in this game? You must hang out in the fleet station 24/7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
