Operatives get one of the most powerful CC in the game -> Flash bang. Thats what you would have to give up for a knockback. And Flash bang is far more useful when capping an objective. Knockbacks are easy to avoid getting knocked off platforms, its called situational awareness. Make sure you always have enough room behind yourself when in combat with a knockback class, and dont let them position you so that you can get knocked off a ledge.

You are clearly trolling. All my guild got our updates within half an hour. So you dont know anything for a fact.

Every heal specced class can win 1 on 1. Its working as intended. I can't think of a single game where a well played healer cant beat anyone else 1 on 1. If one person alone could kill them they would be pretty useless. The guy could have changed the thread to say BH merc healer or IA operative healer and it would have been the same result for him.

Perhaps you finally went up against Republic players with Champion gear.

I got all my updates fine, all 150. Not sure why you didnt get them at mid. Maybe players have a cut off for giving valor after a certain amount of deaths in a period of time. I imagine most players complaining in this thread are republic base instakill exploiters though.

That was in Beta, but it got renamed to Tracer Missile / Grav Round.

This thread gave me so many lol's. It also made me a little bit sad for the future.

Yep, exactly the same here. Running the TERA beta on max settings and no lag, I have to wonder *** is going on with SWTOR's engine. How can it possibly run so badly with so little bells and whistles? PvP was fun for the first month or so, but making it so that my skills activate 2 seconds after I press them has just taken any enjoyment out of the game for me. There was no spell lag at launch for me at all, then with every patch to 'fix spell lag' I got some more added. And my internet is 60 mb/s and other online games run flawlessly, so its not me SWTOR.. its you.

Cancelling. I like the game, but every patch to 'fix' user interface lag has made it worse for me. It is now outright unplayable - and I refuse to pay for that. Since PvP is the only thing that interests me at level 50, it also means that I just cant be bothered with this game anymore.

Actually they didnt. Only the Republic had a big enough ship to use. They just chose not to say which side was exploiting in the update notes.

All max level medpacks still give the 2.5k heal. A 5k heal is only really possible by a DPS with a heal tree (BH Merc, Sorc, Operative) and youll only get that by popping your stim / relic and hoping for a crit - while out of combat. If you are engaged in PvP combat your healing is reduced by 30%, and you have no chance of the 5k heal. So really, yeah they can get the medal, but they arent doing those 5k heals in the middle of a fight.

Balanced class is balanced. Now people can swarm to make BH Arsenal Mercs and Gunnery Trooptards (which based on warzones lately, they already have) until they get nerfed, and post lots of angry posts saying 'I HAD NO IDEA YOU WERE GOING TO REBALANCE THIS OVERPOWERED CLASS WHICH I CHOSE BECAUSE IT WAS OVERPOWERED! I QUIT!'.

I agree that interrupts should lock out the whole 'family' of spells - like all healing spells, or all DPS spells, depending on what was interrupted. However individual recast of this should be significantly raised. 6s cooldown with a 4s lockout for melee is too powerful. Raise that to 15s recast if you make it lock out all spells, so you still need to work as a team to shut down a healer. And I dont think autofaced should be changed. We dont really need to promote melee classes bunnyhopping around casters, it looks stupid and thankfully in this game its pointless.

Shutting down Sorceror DPS is easier than shutting down a BH Merc, and they do far less spike damage, just more AE damage which shows up on the leaderboards but doesnt actually kill anyone with a brain. I can count on one hand the number of times my primary DPS generating spell has been interrupted. But then those bad players come here and whine because interrupting is too hard.

Hahahahahahaha burst damage. Hahahahahaha. No really, Sorcerors have the lowest burst damage out of all the DPS classes. They cant even get the 5k damage medal now after the buff stacking nerf. What they do have is consistant AE damage, which is why you see those big numbers at the end of warzones. The AE damage isnt going to kill anyone, but it will tag them to give them kills and also pad their damage numbers a bit.
