Jenzali Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) Just a heads up for PvPers, sweeping blasters has received a very substantial nerf, in that it will no longer instantly interrupt caps at range. The initial tick of its damage has been delayed by about half a second. This may be related to why we had to re-purchase the skill at the class trainers. For comparison, this ability has no pushback protection, is interruptible, and lasts significantly shorter than the Sniper/GS's counterpart ability. Interrupting caps will immediately overheat you unless you have almost 0 heat - this has always been an issue and I think the undocumented nerf was unwarranted.

Macroeconomics Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 When you compare the AoE abilities of Mercs to that of Sorcs or Snipers, it is as if the devs specifically tried to make Mercs worse in every way. Which in fact is what they did try to do. DFA does less damage than Death Field. And has a smaller radius and has higher resource cost and a much longer CD. meanwhile the spammable Sweeping Blasters is also worse than Force Storm in every way.
