Scoundrels/Operatives ridculously OP.

MMO players usually are, too much terrible players in MMOs.

No argument, just pointing out that people can be so inept that their "shenanigans" are actually truth, of a sort.

Its like saying you once murdered 10 people with just a pocket knife in 5 minutes but neglecting to mention you went to a retirement home to do it.

Or it must be that you people suck.

Right because the knockdown doesn't turn your resolve bar full white making you completely immune to cc until it empties........... Oh wait.

Thanks for proving my point.

I don't think everyone who chooses OP/Scoundrel is great, but most of the people who stick with them all the way to 50 are. They have a hard learning curve. You level up the first 10 levels as a character that uses cover and ranged attacks and as soon as you get used to that playstyle your cover is useless and you are primarily a melee class.

You then learn that all your greatest melee skills rely on conditions like upper hand or being behind your targets. Oh and you still need to know your 10m and 30m abilities and know how to properly mix them into combat because the ones that don't require cover are still useful. You simply cannot reach your full potential if you forget your flash and thermal grenades, quick shot, or vital shot.

The scoundrel when played as DPS is honestly the most difficult AC in the game to play IMO. The ability to slaughter glass cannons almost instantly IF you get crits doesn't change that.

And as soon as biochem gets nerfed that won't even be such a huge concern anymore.

STUN OVER

how can that be possible? knock down is 3 sec stun, 1GCD is 1.5 sec, that will say 2 attacks in 3 sec knock down.

Nice try, try again

Today i open op in a sorc, didnt even break his bubble in a knock down, ye we are very OP!! didnt use any stims/buff etc.

1st hit is the knock down starting the 3 second knockdown then they could get the next 2 attacks in and I think these attacks can cause dots as well with acid blades

ooh so then you have to use cloaking screen and stay cloaked for 8 sec? but right, Im supposed to break cc (1 gcd) and dot you (another gcd) before you can use cloaking screen, wich happens to also be 2 min cd, just like my break cc so it will be ready next time my break cc is ready.

Sure. You can use your cloaking screen / vanish to get in another back hit on someone. They are going to know you are there making it easy for them to knock you out of stealth with an AoE or detect, and only a complete fool is going to sit there with their back open long enough to make a 2nd hit very easy to pull off. You are also going to be screwed if you actually need your cloak to get out of a sticky situation given our class has no survivability. But you can do it...

I really would like to see some of the people criticizing our class so much play it. I think most of them would get eaten for breakfast.
