Nerf tracer missle now

Ok those that are complaining about the missile following you around a wall, Tracer missile has a 1.5 second cast time, but at max range has about another 1 second travel time, so that mercenary got the cast off before you broke LoS, and the missile was allready in the air.

For the OP, if your getting hit with TM's over 3k almost every hit, you might want to go back to your bank and put your gear back on cause you must be naked, with 34% crit, 81% surge and over 1300 aim, and closing in on 400 expertise I see max 2600-2700 and the dmg numbers are all over the place, on a single target I have seen first hit go 900, second go 2500, third go 500, fourth go 1500 and fifth go 1000 without seeing "absorbed" once.


The squeaky wheel is the one that catches the most complaints, the animation and sound of Tracer missile is by far the most annoying of any skill in the game, therefore it gets the attention. Mercenary arsenal spec is meant as a pure DPS spec, so for you that are pointing to how BH's are always in the top areas of the dps charts...well duh.

But for those that still cry nerf, lets do this, take away the cast time of Tracer Missile, put it on a 5 second CD, lower the CD of RailShot to 5 seconds and the CD of Heetseeker to 10 seconds and make the buffs and debuffs apply their max effect at 3 stacks instead of 5, you will see less Tracer spam, we will be mobile, win win.

Wheres the balance. Op's and scoundrels were killing too fast doing half HP in 5-6s. well Tracer missle spam can take 3/4 of my HP is 3 hits. 3.2k 3.4k 2.9 . That is killing much faster then intended per bioware.

Balance this crap out.

Must you argue even about this? It was around level 50 gear, don't keep being a ******* about this. Why must you people argue every little damn little thing like this no matter how accurate it is? gosh darn.

It's kind of important that a discussion about level 50 gear doesn't get distorted because half the people here are running around in greens -.-

So I did bother to log on my level 50 scoundrel who is decidedly not tank specced and put on the level 40 pvp gear and guess what I also have 12.2k in level 40 gear. People who have 12k in level 50 gear with mods from level 50 quests are doing it wrong, period, and should not add to this discussion based on their HP at 50.

I HATE the Missiles.

As a scoundrel healer, I am seeing more and more that the 2 OPed Imps classes are working together to gang-kill me/reps.

It mostly seems to done as so:
1. Sorc will stun me
2. Multiple Merc Launch Missiles
3. I try to break Stun with my 1 skill to run
4. Sorc stun again - Most life gone when Missiles hit
5. Defense Probe and Try to Heal
6. Get Interrupted and stunned
7. Get Dead and Die

To me that is OP-ed.

And FYI in huttball I am unable to get them off ledges.

It isn't about 1v1 fights. It's that they can stand in one spot, spam one skill, and do massive damage to targets that are completely helpless.

We're squishy compared to... Everything?

We've got no defensive cooldowns worth a damn, dodge is 3 seconds long, hardly reduces damage at all, the only real reason it's there is to remove dots.

Then we've got defense screen which absorbs some 2k and it's on a 45 second cooldown and lasts for 15 seconds.

Hell, I play a sorcerer, and I have to say that even though my scoundrel has some 5% more mitigation from armor It's way less survivable.
