Coyotecalls Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I made a smuggler and it was fun, then it got nerfed and nerfed and nerfed again and now I have a 35 smuggler that I would really like to finish and get the buff from but.. yeah.. the character is so weak, so slow, Corso is so squishy now, I feel like I should be paid to play this AC it is SO BAD now. They said at Guild Con "You can't make people play Smugglers." but, yeah, here's a helpful hint, what ever you are doing now, do the opposit. You have managed to suck the fun out of the class with the best story. You managed to make the single most fun PVP class into someone I feel is almost useless. If you are going to make our AC so weak no one wants to play it can you give us a free respec to the other AC? Because, really, after playing other classes scrappers are HORRIBLE.

Amlici Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I play a smuggler and agent. I just enjoy their game style. My agent just hit 40 and is great fun playing as abit of a hybrid with a few heals spells. I don't really care what is nerfed and buffed i just play with what i got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyzen Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I have a 50 scrapper. He's my bank alt for all of my toons. He's really good at it too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I learned years ago that when playing MMOs, "adjustments" will be made. I can either roll with the punches or give up playing MMOs. I prefer to roll with the punches. I have a 'slinger and a scoundrel and an operative. They play just fine for me. I do not, however, PvP so I leave that to others to expand upon.

curzen Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Scoundrel here. Scrapper is crap now and never really was any use outside of warzones and leveling. Sawbones is a pain when soloing dailies. Dirty Fighting is quite crappy too, but sadly the best of the bunch. I'll go and halfheartedly level an Inquisitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilTsar Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 long time scrapper now sawbones and occasionally dirty fighting when the guild needs dps. and warning people away from scoundrel in favor of slinger. on a side note, corso, like all tank companions, will start to feel very squishy in the 30s, and non-healers should be running with dps and healer pets.

JeramieCrowe Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I'm playing an unarmed Scrapper with the new Legacy unarmed skills. It's a lot of fun, and they hit hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cataphractone Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Lethality is actually really strong now. I would recommend checking it out if you don't think scrapper/concealment is living up to what you think it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amnie Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 maybe it's just me, but I actually struggled with all classes I played up that high (juggernaut, sage, scoundrel) in the 30s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazzer Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Scoundrel here. . Sawbones is a pain when soloing dailies. ?? Sawbones solos dailies very easily and can even stealth through the Belsavis heroic "communication fault" My set up of Akaavi Spar with just a touch of healing can solo 4-5 mobs at a go.

PhillihP Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 To answer the title of your thread, I actually havn' t seen one in pvp (or the Imp equivalent) since 1.2. But that might not be a good estimation of the state of them, I have barely pvped since 1.2, it kinda died on my server. Agreed. I pvp all the time and rarely see another smuggler, let alone scoundrel AC. thats partly why I still pvp so much. Showing that the least played AC can still get near or at the top of the charts is its own small victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AIRCONGO Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I love this class, I had played Marauder and Mercenary through to 50. Then wondered what it'd be like on the giving end of shoot first for a change in pvp/open world instead of always being on receiving! Haven't noticed too much difference since 1.2 only thing I have trouble dropping is a marauder/sentinel once they pop their CDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopsinwhat Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) I'm level 37 at the moment doing missions on Quesh. I"m not really having any problems leveling as a scrapper. I don't use Corso, I switched to Bowdaar, as long as you keep the gear updated with yours it shouldn't be a problem or I use Akaavi and off heal when needed. I actually had more problems with my gunslinger at this level. Which is why I stopped leveling him at 41 and re-rolled scoundrel to see if the leveling experience was any easier.

Miorum Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Scrapper Main, here. Nothing beats being able to solo all the Belsavis Daily Quests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heliwyr Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Scrapper main as well. I don't PVP, but I will be exploring that arena soon. If what I'm hearing is correct, and Scoundrels/Smugglers really aren't that popular anymore...then if I wait long enough, people will forget how to fight a Scoundrel Scrapper and end up losing. As far as companions go, once you get Guss Tuno, you'll be nigh unstoppable. It's great to have someone spam heals at you all day. I find I can take elites without having either my companion or myself die (after lvl 30 or so, Corso would be a guaranteed death with almost every single elite). The only downside is Corso is more fun in dialogues than Guss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vambor Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I played Scrapper up to level 46 untill 1.2 came out. I respecced for Sawbones since the killed PvP for Scrapper. You're a total liability to your team playing PvP as a scrapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're a total liability to your team playing PvP as a scrapper. so basically,you have no level 50 expierance playing a scrapper in pvp...... i would of at least gotten to 50 and tried out scrapper before i respec'd but thats just me.then again,i dont really see many scrappers in the lvl 50 bracket,and the ones ive fought.ive pretty much steamrolled and im in like full pve gear eather way though,ive looked at assassins,operatives and scoundrels and i liked the sound of scoundrels the best.so i dont know Edited April 22, 2012 by CrunkShizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ucuw Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I've been playing around with my scoundrel since 1.2. I really had to get used to it, but it still works. I still do fine in PvP, so I don't understand the "it's not playable anymore" posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fomortiis Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 People that think scrappers aren't playable in PvP anymore are just bad. You guys keep doing what you're doing, and I'll continue outplaying, ganking, and owning everyone on my scrapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
