The day when TRACER MISSILES or worse, Mercs/Commandos will get nerfed, it will be the day when SWTOR will lose 10 % of it's player base!

Trust me, I will surely unsub because of that!
WOW>SWTOR

I wouldn't unsub, But I sure as hell would no longer DPS on my BH, I would switch to heals until all the whiners complain that my heals are op. and that gets nerfed, mass majority of players = noob which then they complain and being the majority dumb the game down so bad that my 5yr old nephew can pwn most the people in the game. YAY nubbers!

I love when people say things about tracer missile, most people don't realize that the entire Arsenal tree revolves around tracer missile. There are 4 abilities Arsenal BH use Tracer Missile, Heat Seeker missile, Rail Shot and Unload. The stacks that tracer missile applies on the target increase the damage that Heat Seeker and Rail shot do by 5% and 6% respectively per stack. Complaining that BH use tracer missiles is like complaining that a Assassin spams Maul or a Operative uses backstab. Its what the tree gives them to do the damage they are designed for you can't ***** about a sorc not using his lightsaber cause hes not designed to use a lightsaber so he spams lightning because that is what his talent trees are desinged to allow him to do.

Really whether or not it's balanced or built that way is irrelevant.


Fact is either 1 of 2 things happens.

1. Tracer/grav round spam is fixed.

2. IF #1 does not happen a lot of people leave PVP.



A lot of us understand that spamming noobs are not using their class to it's full potential, but when someone can literally derp mode people to death fairly easily and consistently it just sucks the fun out of PVP for those of us actually expending effort not to suck.

Even if we beat said player by 100k and 10 kills, they still ALMOST did the same amount we did using derp mode. You pretty much have to double whatever they do for it not to feel totally lame. Even then, you'll end up dying to tracer missle spam at some point during a match and it's just annoyingly frustrating to know you just got killed pretty quickly by a complete idiot spamming a single button.


The simple frustration of skilless players being able to compete due to the class being designed so simply on it's own is toxic.
I have faith in Bioware and Mythic to deliver a good game. I have more faith in myself to decide in an unbiased fashion whether or not it is good. Neither has any impact on the fact that I will kill you.

win win
Wrong Wrong. Our entire setup revolves around Tracer Missile and the stacking effects it has. If you nerf Tracer Missile, you need to decrease the reliance of our other abilities in contrast.

I literally can't stand people who call for nerfs and have never played the class and have no idea about the class.

Stop calling for Nerfs and LRN2PLAY!

If you want to beat Tracer Missile, all you need to do is Interrupt, CC, Stun, Knockbacks, and use LOS. Nearly every ability we have (Arsenal) take a summoning time, and you want to nerf us?

You people will literally be the death of this game if you don't stop whining about every damn class in the game being too powerful.

With the right gear, tracer missile hits for 3k+ every 1.5 seconds not to mention the hard hitting heatseeker missile and rail shot. A nerf is comming, its just a matter of when.

Crit 3k you mean, it will only hit 3k with buff stacking and the warzone expertise buff.
