Yestreen Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I play the worst class in game. And on top of that, the worst spec. (Commando medic) So no, I don't play an assassin. But I will tell you then need some help. Stealth classes should be able to burst someone attacking out of stealth. It's the point of the class. If a stealth class can't deal a ton of burst damage for their openers, then what is the point of having them? I bet you don't augment your gear, got no stim, and don't min/max. And, you probably don't know your class very well. So that's why you always get killed in 6 secs. I don't think commandos/mercs are the worst class in the game; They just have a high skill cap. Kand/Icressi can dominate on their mercs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domatron Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 The worst spec of commado/merc is not medic, and arsenal is in a good place right now in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kand/Icressi can dominate on their mercs. Worst among 3 healing classes is what I meant. It has it's strengths of course, like durability, but that doesn't make up for the healing output difference among the other healing classes.

Ugasonofuga Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 People will always look at 1 v 1 Championships and believe that "this is PvP". Or, in other words : This Championship will set the mark for future PvP gaming in SWTOR - it is an benchmark for Arenas. I expect people rerolling towards those classes which wre number 1,2,3 in this Championship. Because Arenas will more or less be 1 v 1. All the other classes will be considered irrelevant for Arenas. So, now you annoy ppl in the english forums, gz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kand/Icressi can dominate on their mercs. And then there are special players like zirx/dumpz that are better on their heal merc then a lot are on there OPs. Also beast as DPS. But i think if you put him on an OP healer he would be close to unstoppable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP_Legatus Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) People will always look at 1 v 1 Championships and believe that "this is PvP".

Arenas are nothing like 1v1. In 1v1 you are the tank, healer, and dps all by yourself. This is why sins are good in 1v1 - they can dps, tank, and some self healing all at the same time (even though juggs do it better, see belligerent). In arena you still go in fulfilling one role, not all 3. With no nodes to guard anymore, sins will by far be the least desired class - they just generalize too much and do too little at a specific role. You're probably right that people will reroll sin with duel tournaments still turning out this way though, because a lot of people will be thinking similar to this post, that arena is 1v1 because there's less people. It couldn't be further from the truth, but people will buy it. Edited September 20, 2013 by JP_Legatus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It couldn't be further from the truth, but people will buy it. If you took 4 competent assassin tanks into an arena, they could still beat solid teams by turning the fight into a 4 v 1 by sapping three players on the other team. Even if they all use their cc break, a couple grenades gives the 4 assassins 4 seconds to burst a target down, which is plenty of time. I expect to see a lot of troll comps like this. Personally, I think arenas should be limited to 1 advanced class per group to foster well rounded teams and make balance easier on bioware.

Are you saying that Guardians/Juggernauts make better 1v1 fighters than Assassins/Shadows? Because I'm still deciding on which of my toons (Vigilance or Kinetic Combat) to gear up for dueling when 2.4 drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardians very high depends from theirs CD, and CD on Saber ward 3 min just ridiculous. Sins have much less CD, and much more control, so they always ready for 1 vs 1.
