Defend the decisions however you want all you did was to make it so people playing these classes will never die in PVP.

And that is exactly what is happening. These classes stealth out of combat before they get to half life and come back fully healed to sneak attack again and again until they finally get a kill.
Yawn. Show me an MMO message board where this same argument is not made verbatim. Any MMO with a rogue class has this same complaint.

You do realize that the "vanish" ability for both shadows/assassins and the smuggler/IA classes is on a 3 minute CD, right? That's better than some other games with 2 min CD's.

stealth while in combat is regarded as an expensive ability with high cd in many games.
It's free here.

Wrong, it is on a 3 minute CD in this game. That's better than other games with 2 min CD's and stealth that is not breakable by DoT's.

Does anyone else find it weird that they made 2 kinds of Stealther classes in Star Wars?

shadows/assassins werent enough?

i dont get why operatives/smugglers would need stealth also

Er, yes they do. It is quite common to hid vanish and then be broken out 2-3 seconds later by a dot.

You can pop evasion too and that will knock off harmful effects. That is what you are seeing. But that takes 2 2 minute cooldowns, not just 1.

2 minute with skill points put into it. Otherwise 3 minutes.

You're doing it wrong.

I kill the **** out of stealthers all of the time and when they vanish I look around for them (they can't get far) and then finish off my kill.

I can't figure if the class system is worse than Rift or Champions Online...
Nothing is worse than Sabs were in Rift, and this coming from someone who played one.
This is not the droid you're looking for.
