Bioware caved in to the forum whines, prepare for the start of a doomed pvp game.

I felt like Ops needed a nerf in 1 respect only... their knockdown was ridiculous. Their damage output wasn't a problem except for the fact that stunned on the ground for 3 sec you can't knock them away to recover. Even this wouldn't need to get nerfed if resolve wasn't so horribly implemented.

your the stupidest person in the forum is you think any tool is for any singular intent its why you ***** about operatives its why you lose sorry

i gotta agree with both sides here, this reduction in the damage will hurt quit a number of OP's/ Scoundrels damage overall because they rely heavily on that one skill for an opener, but at the same time i have been on the receiving end of it and it sucks. im a lvl 50 infiltration spec shadow with 10%+ expertise and am lvl 50 valor, and after many hours and many matches against said classes, i have learned to pretty much 1v1 any other class out there that is on equal footing gear wise with myself, but still find it damn near impossible to even get their health below 75% before im dead because of their ability to openly destroy you in the first few seconds of combat and just stun you run kite you a little and you dead

now its not all the time but i have run in to my fair share of them who have come out of stealth and destroyed me before i could even say in TS oh snap operative need help. there have been a few who on their opening assualt were unsuccesful because i was able to stun/ force run or Knock them back but its always the same dog and pony show, destealth and do it again. which im not going to bash because i use the same tactic all the time for Kick, and shadows respite.

but really the only thing i can say is learn to play your class effectively with these changes, you will have to learn to play with a myriad of skills at your disposal to out wit and think your opponent and use the right skills at the right time, instead of stabbity stab stab i win.

most people think shadows are gimp and wont complain about them for sheet, but from experience when used correctly i can destroy people faster than an operative, unless it a tank specced class, for some reason i feel like a wet noddle slapping a piece of steel LOL

How do you know they didn't test it themselves? How can you think 7-8k crits is fair against most classes 3-4k crits max. Please behave and have evidence of everything you say. They've so far listened to noone suggestions about illum, world pvp, champ bags etc etc and just because they make one class balanced you start crying on here.

Those 7-8k crits that were mentioned came from a video. If you look at the buffs the guy had, you will see that those dont happen often in most regular gameplay
