Nerf tracer missle now

LMAO, us OP's got it, now the noobs need something else to cry about. It's funny how none of these horribads don't understand the concept of interupting. If Sorc's and Sages didn't make up the majority of the classes we'd be hearing rage about them as well. First comes the Mercs though. This is too funny.

LOL true.

On occasion, if I have my relic, adrenal and hit the expertise buff in a wz, I can crit for 3k three times in a row, however half the time I'm not that lucky, I'll hit twice and crit once, or hit 3 times with no crit. Sometimes the stars align and I'll hit three crits in a row for 3k a piece. I can't polish anyone off with three tracers though. I only have 560 expertise though.
Edit-and thats against someone in horrid pve armor

Usually I have to tracer missile x 3, heatseeker, tracer x2 than railshot(and someone preoccupied with someone else will die). That involves alot of standing in one spot squeezing out my tracer lol
Edit-if I'm noticed I use stuns, and knockbacks in my rotaton, plus I use unload if the unload bonus is up.

Honestly though, if I'd known what an stationary target class merc was, i would have rolled a powertech

He can heal himself, you have this nice CD that stops interupts and knockbacks for 12 seconds. Maybe you should learn to play. There is no reason a healer should be able to sit in place and take that kind of damage.

But yea I'm sure im so bad I don't realize their is another healer, the other healer must be why my attacks are hitting for 1/3 their normal damage.

...I'm playing an assassin. So far the armor has been close to a juggarnaut in tank stance I played briefly. I'm sure when I spec into the additional 20% armor, it will help. Not to mention guess who has the most elemental and internal absorption.. oh, that's right, assassins.

I agree that TM is OP, but seriously? No, they're not tougher than tanks, not assassins even, quit trying to make a ridiculous claim like that.

The fact you were quoting something of mine that had a quote in it, you should at least see what the conversation is about first. Otherwise you're jumping into a conversation without a damn clue. Anyways, they hit damn harder than other ranged DPS without that, but its the explanation for the 3k crits, the claim is they don't happen, but they do and that's why. If you want to make a new excuse up every time you people are proven wrong on something, something is messed up.

They can take stealth for all I care, their is almost no benefit to us having it. We get a ****** opener and unless your running deception for the 6second force regen, there is no reason to really stealth.

Same here.

I'm telling you right now as tank spec you get 6k armor. I'm glad you think your experience as a level 22 means you know what the situation at end game is.

But you guys are all right, its perfectly normal to have a tank that is effectivley a healer.

It is by no way a ridiculous claim, when the only truly effective form of mitigation we have is armor, and they have the same armor as us. Get to 50 and see how **** absorbption is.

CLARELY you have not played OP, or you are doing something very very wrong on your merc. If you use the PvP stims you can crit MUCH more and MUCH faster than any OP can.

YESS in mixed 10-50 PvP it was possible to crit MOUNTAINS of dmg onto ungeared and unskilled clothwearing and armor rendered foes. But how does that relate to ANYTHING that is in the current PvP game? Its been fixed, and then its been overfixed.

Tracerspam is a terrible way to do DPS. I'm on a small server and I know every player that queues WZ's what their spec is, and what their habits are. I tried out Arsenal for a couple days, but even though I like the damage it can cause, you have to be standing still.


On my server most of the republic are shadows or other melee classes, so they swarm a target. And if you're standing still trying to tracerspam, you've already lost. Because of this I had to switch to the highly mobile Pyro spec. I can dot them up, fast cast a fusion rocket, and the only skill I ever have to stand still for is Unload. Which I only use if I'm trying to burst down a target or refresh the CD on my rail shot.

When I was arsenal, every *good* republic player noticed my change of habits, and they would always go for me first. So naturally having to stand still made me an easy target.

There are way too many stuns/interrupts, and ways of causing them in the game that a good player will know how to overcome a spammer.

I destroy tracerspam in a 1v1, I dot them up LOS jet blast re-dot, LOS then stun, and burst. Now SHADOWS and Sages on the other hand, those guys are just terribly OP! Damage that I can't mitigate except through expertise... yeah if they get a pocket healer, they can just destroy dozens of people in a matter of a minute or two.
