KeyboardNinja Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 BM was completely reitemized in 1.2. Unless you kept the stock mods in your old set, you wouldn't have benefited from that reitemization. Thus, you would have vastly less expertise than you need to be viable. (The value of expertise was increased dramatically in 1.2) Another thing to keep in mind is that the time to kill is far less than it used to be, meaning that *everyone* is dying really fast, particularly against a premade who is focus targeting. You simply will not live all that long, even under the best of circumstances and gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verfallen Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Just started doing some WZ, and survivability is an issue. I gotta stay with team mates, ideally be guarded by a tank, but as dps healer rightfully get priority imo. So I stick near an object to cut LoS if a commando/merc or gunslinger take an unhealthy interest in me, and if a scoundrel or deception sin appears behind my back, well...sux to be me unless someone help me. I do decent damage due to powerful AoE, and adapt but I avoid fair fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidichIorian Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 You shouldnt have any problems with survivability on a hybrid. That said, if someone catches you off guard or you are being pounded on while bubble is deionized you'll take big hits regardless of expertise.
