Did the same thing last night.

So like the 3rd boss that starts duplicating people. It always f's up when you have an IA or BH in the group and just keeps making people when it gets to these classes. When the hell are they going to fix this already?

For deception, which do you use? Is it worth using the shield generator for when you swap stances occasionally?

Ah, ic. I'm leaning towards BH I think. Is the survivability of a BH vs. a sorc. similar at all?

Jeez, still have no idea what to pick, lol. What is the nerf that's coming?

I've got an assassin already and even though I really would like a Sorc, I don't want to roll another Inq. So I guess I'm left to choose between a BH and an Op. I'm just curious whom is more effective in PvP in terms of survivability and utility? Any input would be appreciated.

I don't think anyone's complaint here was PVE, was it? I had no issues as a Deception build with Khem tanking doing any of the content to 50. I think other classes may have an easier time, but in any game some classes solo better than others. In any case the primary subject has been the shortcomings with Assassin PvP. A amazing Assassin to me must utilize every skill/trick in the book to win against a mediocre Operative, Jugg, [insert class name here]. Most of the people here with no issues seem to be people with full PvP gear, and are popping every possible buff they can to succeed. This is just what makes me a little sad, as I do like the class, but feel they are lacking a bit.

What buffs do you typically stack from biochem? Willpower and then pop crit?

Are you constantly with premades and a healer? I solo queue a lot and I'm usually around 15-25 kills and 5-9 deaths in a full game that we're not being completely dominated. However, my DPS is far far from 200k+ in most warzones. I think I may have hit 200 once or twice, but that's definitely not the norm. I also feel like I'm constantly targeted and just get eaten like nothing. What 10 points are you putting in darkness? I'm considering doing 31/0/10 just to increase my survive-ability. Been hearing some decent things about this spec and then going DPS gear.

What spec are you running now StrifedRevan? I'm level 50 now with 4 pieces of champion gear. Solo queuing I've have quite a hard time as a deception build. I watch videos of people playing doing a ******** of burst DPS and I just don't see it happening unless I'm targeting a non-50 player. I don't consider myself a bad player. I've got everything keybound and feel I make the right moves when I need to. However, I have a terrible time closing against equal level Sorc's, Ops, and hell most classes. Does gear really make such a huge difference? I don't know how the hell people are getting 300-400k dmg as an assassin. TBH, I kind of feel bad with the class and have been considering to reroll, but I'm really trying my best to give it as much of a chance as I can. Any tips appreciated.

Can anyone post a vid of this spec in action?

I have 2 champion pieces is all. However, it's not like every player I'm going against is fully geared with pvp gear. I'm not only referring against lvl 50s.

Some issues/comments I was hoping someone could chime in regarding: The level 50 pvp gear seems to stack power over crit, what's the deal with that? I'm having a major time in the Warzones as a Deception assassin vs many classes. I feel like I just can't close after my initial burst in dps. I'm sitting around 25-27% crit and do a decent amount of burst (not near an Opp I'd say though). Tanks will just bubble and same with sorc's. Operatives seem to just stunlock me and I have no chance at survival. Is this something Bio is looking at or is there something I can do? Thanks

As a deception build I focus primarily on Willpower, Crit, and Surge. Is power worth anything to an assassin over any of these other attributes?

Is power worth anything as an assassin?
