pvp from a concealment operative's perspective

I must laugh at some of these operatives defending their class, stuff like "I have a shadow and he does way more damage in the same amount of time"

 

Either you are full of ****, or you are not playing your operative correctly, shadow no mather how hes played can never EVER get even remotely close to the damage that Concealment ops do.

 

As for pople calling it burst damage, if it was burst damage It Would have either A) Such a high cost that you could only use it once or twice within a decent timespan.

 

Or B) it would have cooldowns.

 

It is not effected much by either.

 

 

Defend your spec all you want, but the current Ops are so absurdly over the top that even biowares famous "metrics" is gonna be blinking in bright red when they watch endgame ops damage, hell I wouldnt be suprised if a alarm or two went of.

 

like it or not, there is simply no way in hell you will avoid a nerf.

evasion doesn't remove dots,.. You need to troll harder..

 

As to the main topic, I agree, we aren't OP in any way whatsoever. We're squishy, do good sustained damage, poor burst imo and we can heal a bit. (I'm talking strictly concealment operatives) We have poor battlefield control being a melee class with zero closers. We rely on opening effectively and if there's more than another individual in the area, we're boned.

 

We really are a terrible warzone spec/class as WZ's typically involve team fights. If our opener gets insta healed, we're basically just a sustained damage bot with poor health and some escape mechanics.

 

I personally think this spec is best suited for World PvP, but there's no reward for doing such, so, I've come to the conclusion that I'm gonna respec into healing, as at least I won't be a player in limbo, both failing to kill sufficiantly and failing to die often.. So what's the point? I can't carry the ball well having no real defense abilities and since 9/10 games are huttball, lol, I'm just gonna go heal bot ;)

Do YOU people play the class? This class is unbelievably powerful, I control every single warzone I go in to. EVASION REMOVES DOTS. How is this argued... it removes dots, it's a fact. It needs a nerf, I've come to believe none of you know how to play it properly.. which is the same thing I've seen from the scoundrels and ops I have encountered on my server. You people defending the class are clueless, it needs nerfed, period.

 

Halcyon, are you level 10?

I play an operative more effectively than you could ever dream to. Evasion removes everything, I guess you're not pressing the button hard enough?

 

If that's a clone of the Assassins Force Shroud then its bugged as hell It does work 50% of the time tho. But one minutes its blocking that KB then the next your sent flying . It needs work along with the resolve bar letting you be ping ponged around when its alrdy full

Orly? A Sin on my server has done over 550k dmg in a wz. His name is Lina. How many Ops do you know score that high?
