Wotch Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 What buff are you talking about? All I saw was JK's are getting some new abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iDraxter Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 What buff are you talking about? All I saw was JK's are getting some new abilities. Class changes in 1.2 include new abilities for the Warrior and the Knight, a nerf for the Bounty Hunter, and more. Every class will receive changes, and all skill tree points refunded so you can look over the trees again before deciding how to rebuild your class. "Some players will be excited, some might not. That's always the case when there's tweaks to classes." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VertisReaper Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 its going to be a dmg nerf for watchmen sents and most likely an ability that grants immunity to either stuns, snares or knockbacks for a short duration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE LIFE OF A JEDI... rarwwrrrrr tis good Could be a passive ability, or a one hour buff type ability. Think that is as much speculation as I will do, I prefer facts.

Herew Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) "Force Stutter": The Jedi Knight feigns jumping into the air repeatedly to confuse his foes. Those unfamiliar with this ability will think the Knight is gliching out causing them to perhaps ignore him. Channeld ability with a cost of 5 focus. Or something along the lines of: In order to help alleviate the JKs mobility problem we have decided to remove the minimum range of Saber throw.

FobManX Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 My guess is we're getting a Push or Pull ability to make us more viable in WZs(mainly Huttball). Interesting that they say all talent points will be reset. Makes it sound like they'll be sweeping changes. We'll see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriscoFrez Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 im pretty sure this game will die after the patch, this big patch is going to boost som classes kill otheres, and thats when a game is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matteis Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) im pretty sure this game will die after the patch, this big patch is going to boost som classes kill otheres, and thats when a game is over. Pleeeeeease, that couldn't have sounded more cliched and full of butthurt "omg my spec is being nerfed (balanced)" if you tried. I've heard people cry about this wolf a thousand times in a dozen different games. Just because your spec is being nerfed doesn't mean the game is going to end. Totally delusional. On that note, as a Guardian I'm very satisfied with the design of the AC/skill trees so I hope they don't do too much to Guardians in particular, lol! New abilities though . . . that could mean anything really. Maybe we will get a long-lasting CC so I'm not always relying on my Sage and Trooper friends to CC mobs in a pull. We already have two short-duration stuns but they're basically useless in the heat of a nasty pull. Edited March 5, 2012 by Matteis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danjamstan Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) 5 bucks says they buff focus/combat and nerf watchman for sents. Why would you nerf watchman? If used properly it can do a lot of dmg, but so can any class. Edited March 5, 2012 by Danjamstan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveandDieinLA Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Not saying i would, or that I think it should be nerfed, just making a guess about what is going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evixy Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Don't think they'll touch Annihilation/Watchman tbh. I think they'll just fix Carnage/Combat and give it better survivability to make it more viable in PvP. Depending on the map, Anni/Watch can do a lot of dmg, yes, but so can Rage/Focus (even more in some cases). I've done over 550k dmg in a Voidstar as Rage, though I'm squishy as hell once focused by 2 or more. Anni is more stable and better for soloing players overall, and its better for killing healers. Though I really wish for a knockback like the one juggernauts and guardians have. Tbh, all knockbacks should require a target, not like an i-got-no-skills-so-i-just-jump-in-and-knock-everyone-back-and-lock-you-down-for-5-secs skill (YES! I'm talking to you, sorcs and sages!).

prokonto Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 (edited) I as senti hope for some CC immunity (not break) it will be great to have it in this everyone-and-u-mum-got-it-but-no-senti CC fest. Lets say 6 sec for 45sec cool ( can be discuss) to scale with rebuke. In fact I hate cc... its for non-skillers & dont wanna it on my senti at all more than it is now. But will be happy to get somethin to get rid off that stupid smile from face those operatives who can lock us w/o possibility of reasonable reaction for my all 16k hp. That is really stupid & unbalanced in my opinion:mad: Edited March 6, 2012 by prokonto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dracosz Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Honestly, juggernauts/guardians are fine with regard to their current toolset. All that really needs to happen is for some adjustment to our defensive cooldowns and the scaling of certain abilities (plasma brand and shatter come to mind). Marauders/Sentinels could also use their lightsaber throw >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
