Secondly, you are wrong. Even the DPS specs of any class don't pull off 6K+ Crits, and even if a few of them do, it's a fairly rare event. What was demonstrated by the OP has been done, over and over again, repeatedly by other players of the same class. That type of 6K+ consistency is a problem and certainly not shared by any other classes in the game. The fact that massive crits can stack on top of each other just makes the matter worse.



At this stage in the game, any Crit over 6K+ in PvP is stupid and poor game design.



You are wrong. As I stated in my response above, this is certainly not something that every class can do. Please show me the screenshots or vids of other classes hitting for a 10K crit. Please show me screenshots or vids of other classes critting for 9K. I can easily produce evidence of this specific class doing 9K+ crits on other occasions. The fact that they can then follow the initial 9K or 10K with another 6K+ crit is even more asinine.

Sorry, but a nerf is needed. These over the top Crits are what is stupid and have no place in the current game aside from ezmode facerolling.

You dispute my statements? Then show me the evidence to support your argument. Show me other classes critting for 9K. And no, I don't want to hear the anecdotal bs about how your cousin's sister friend's brother hit for 9K the other day in a WZ under a blue moon at high tide while rubbing his rabbit's foot. Screenshot, Vid or it didn't happen.
I am sick of arguing this with people. You folks are inadequate. Every class CAN do this damage with buffs, stims, everything that is stacked there. Using their best damage dealer they CAN do this. Test it, get the best gear and the best buffs and test it. You WILL get the same results. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE is that Scrappers and their counterparts do it as an OPENER, other DPS spec'd classes require build up OR DO THIS DAMAGE AS A REPEATING TICK.

There are videos out there of every class doing ridiculous damage. Youtube is your friend. Do some research.

Wrong. My commando with full buffs, half battlemaster gear and half champion gear, sitting over 11% expertise, using warzone powerup rakata stim, adrenal, and rakata power relic can hit my demolition round for 7k. This is AFTER I hit my target with 3 Gravrounds to get the 25% more powerful demolition round. 10k is impossible. 9k is impossible. and 8k is impossible. I can't imagine the 4 remaining champion pieces I have after upgrading them to battlemaster would make a 7k crit (when all stars align) turn into a 10k crit. The champion upgrade to battlemaster is a lot smaller then centurion to champion.

Also, my 7k crit (when all stars align) has to be setup. I can't do it from stealth. i have to channel 3 1.5 second case attacks that anyone of them can be interrupted. The enemy has many oppertunities to get out of line of sight or interrupt and engage me to stop me setting up my big hit.

I personally can kill OP's as long as I have my Tenacity (pvp trinket) up because of the autofacing gravround (and charged bolts when they interrupt gravround). But if I don't have full health, pvp trinket, and rakata medpack off cooldown, I'm dead. There is nothing I can do if I don't have those 2 abilities and full health available to me when an OP does his stealth knockdown.

I recommend everyone roll an OP/scoundral (scrapper) as an alt to protest this ridiculous burst damage.

Yes gunnery commando's are a strong class, But we are weak to 2 things. We cannot kill GOOD healers (no interrupt), and we are stationary for everyone to see and kill and be interrupted. Our 'interrupts' (our 2 knockbacks which have to be melee and 10 meter range) start filling up resolve bar. So interrupting 2 times and then stunning for the kill (which they will trinket) now makes them immune to everything and they can just spam heal our damage.
I have no worries about anyone picking my surname. None at all. Why? Because it's not going to be Legolas.

Thank you for proving my point. If they were so OP, then you should never beat them, right? When do Scrappers and their Operative counterparts win? When they have all their cooldowns available. When do you win? Shocker, when you have all your cooldowns available. Sounds like balance to me.

Bottom line is that Scrappers are 1 trick ponies, without that trick, guess what, they're nothing.

You're 7k crit ability also can be repeated. Scrappers get 1 big ability and it has to be used from stealth and completely fills up the opponents resolve bar.

Holy crap. An obviously geared and admittedly buffed Operative smacked a level 26 toon for almost 10k? Call the internet police.

Hi guys, I play a _____...

But this video shows stuff that I have not done with my class yet.. So please nerf _____.. Because its obvious that they should all play exactly like ______..

Class vs class QQ never gets old.. I know the game is run by Inquis and Consulars but as an Agent I will do my part in this rampant idiocy and nominate Sorcs/Sages for a nerf..

Please consider my tears as an advance payment in this matter..
