JamesBalla Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 MUAHAHA, I'm not missing out yet! MUAHAHA. I mean... That's unfortunate. Played one today, wasn't fun at all. I would die in about 2-3 GCD's. I'd also kill people in the same. It's not PvP, it's hit 1, 2, and 3 on your keyboard and then tab rinse and repeat. I recorded a little bit of the game, about half way through cause I was astonished at how quickly I was dying/other people. I might give it another chance in the future, but the TTK is way too low. Also, I had some fairly bad gear. But my expertise wasn't low at all. I was only lowered than the highest damage in warzone by like 90k, with 8 more deaths than that person. Vigilance is gonna kick some ***. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnage/Combat was always capable of 2 shotting people, but its even worse now for people on the receiving end with slaughter. How you liking Vig btw? I haven't had a chance to try it yet.

bsbrad Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Tried my first 55 FP today (Athiss), me as my healer, guildie tank and two pugs. I must say that the challenge (esp the bosses) has gone up. This is no longer the speed runs of 50 HMs Basically, all members of the group must do their roles or you will wipe, the same as the early days when doing HM FPs for the first time. The healing on the 2nd boss is very intensive and if the adds are not picked up quickly it will be a wipe. We ended up giving up on the FP as we were just not getting the timing down and our gear was probably undergeared (61-63s) My advice treat the new 55 HMs like it was your first time going into Lost Island (before they nerfed the hell out of it). I was pumping out close to 3k HPS and we were still having issues. DPSers must remember to drop aggro and use whatever defensive cooldowns they have. Tanks turn the boss away from the group, for bosses with knockbacks get against a wall and healers concentrate on the tanks as they will take a lot more punishement.

Vigilance is gonna kick some ***. Woah. Sudden insight. I think the TTK is really fast--too fast-- but it hasn't been unfun for the most part --- until a merc or sorc sees me before I see them. (I identify snipers as rivals and am much better at keeping track of their positions. ) That's because I play a ranged class. I'm totally advantaged by short TTKs! We gotta keep it, man! If this adversely affects your PVP enjoyment, it's because you were silly enough to roll a Jedi in a Star Wars game rather than a cool class like a sniper.

bsbrad Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 ^ lol lets rename Stun Wars to Sniper Wars, fine with me as I usually PVP with my Sniper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent-Code_E Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 If we rename it Sniper Wars can I be the bad guy with the shotty ready to roll up from behind and face-plant you into the ground? I think that's what this game should be about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it, It's so much easier to swap targets now and continually frontload burst. The best part was when I was leveling on makeb I would use my saber throw on weak mobs and 1 shot them, it would instantly come off CD since I wasn't in combat anymore, did this so many times. It was hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I'll say that I encountered Deyvon (lvl55) at his guard point of East on Novare (Smashing as usual) He got the first leap on me (Im Vigilance) and he made a brief visit to the medbay. So i say I love it (Still). You should ask him how it felt to be so close to the medpack (in arms reach) just to not get it and die at the hands of the macbook pro cripple who sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stringcat Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 and I will Plasma Probe you out of it I have two entrenches. (Except that I'm sometimes MM. But then I have 60% AOE reduction) I don't move out of PPs when Entrenched. Entrench is too valuable to waste and snipers are too vulnerable on the move. Most of the time, moving out of an Entrench = being CC'ed/leaps = death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsbrad Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 True as an MM sniper you just stay put hope the AOEs dont hurt too much and pray a healer can top you off. The only problem with an MM sniper I see is that with the WZ layouts they are easy to LOS. I suppose if you get a jump on someone with the TTK at the moment you can kill them before they know which direction to run into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trixdope Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Yup and he needs to go back because *** he's doin now aint workin for him. You know you're bad when you "finally" kill me 1on1 with a spec that is MADE for 1on1's and keep talking about it in game and even on the forums lol Everybody clap for Raygon, he killed me for the first time ever! yaaaaaaay! How about I switch to Veng and we can duel. Make you look stupid like I did when you challenged me on Ilum lmao oh and thanks for the easy wins, Finished my weekly without losing one game to you. Appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoliteAssasin Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 That's essentially what happened. Veng is the best spec to duel with for juggs just as Anni is for maras. Rage is AOE pressure, not a 1v1 spec. Don't see why its worth bragging about, but to each his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimplyKupo Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 To get back on track.../cough :sy_lightside:I am madly in love with our monk roll (agent/smuggy) skill... although pretty sure it'll be nerfed eventually. :sy_lightside:Planet comms instead of individual comms makes me berry happy. :sy_lightside:The combined terminals for turning in and picking up quests is nice. :sy_darkside:Not being able to send out a 6th crew member is lame. :sy_darkside:Not being able to have more than 25 quests at a time is retarded. :sy_darkside:No more easy travel between the daily areas frustrates me. (Level 50 dailies are even easier money now, c'mon!) Bolster... obviously is broken. It is kind of interesting to see how different the warzones play out when instead of a gear advantage it's a lack of gear advantage. Despite some extremely frustrating matches most of them have been intense/fun. As for the expertise bolster, I can't get over 2000 unless I unequip relics. And Urdnought, you're not alone. I used to keep stim boost on cooldown as well and any time I hit it by accident now it's extremely frustrating. D: Apparently I need to queue up on my cross-dressing sniper...

PoliteAssasin Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Never said anything about being fair. There's hardly a chance for a fair 1v1 or fight in a warzone. But bragging about something that happens in a warzone which would be completely different outside of a warzone is just pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raazmir Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 IMO since we're not on a pvp server the question of who can 1v1 who the best is less than relevant since the situations where it will come up are realistically pretty rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether we're on a pvp server or not is irrelevant. But I'm curious, why post what you said if you believe that? Or Raygon for that matter? You're right about 90% of the posts being epeen knight/warrior posts. Wonder why. You dare kill a Jedi/Sith and suddenly you're cheap or something right? Isn't that what he suggested? I guess that must be true. You're so angry man. Where did I say that if you try to kill a jedi/sith you're cheap? Oh right this is coming from the same player who does nothing but complain about knights/warriors on the forums all day. Why am I not surprised? you'd get your *** handed to you as anything other than a sith warrior/Jedi knight...well you could probably play an assassin too So would Deyvon I swear he hides until his defenses come back to be used Yeah, because I never played this class since the beginning. I rolled fotm. This class also carries me, I'd suck if I didn't play it. Hit my "i win" button and proceed to LOL. And what were we thinking, trying to use our defensive cooldowns when fighting people. I mean come on, who does that right?
