Commando needs some more CC or interrupts...

yeah this game needs more cc like it needs more oops you go first so you win pvp maps.

There is no L2P issue here:

Lack of mobility and CC means there's not much to playing the DPS Commando/Merc. You can only pray that your DPS can outdo your opponent before they kill you. That's it. So because you depend so heavily upon a channeled spell (grav round), an enemy using a series of stuns, interrupts, insta-invis, etc, will completely toasts you.

There is no amount of skill you can wield to mount a comeback.




The mezz is a bit better at 50, when you get a power to make next spell insta. So you can mezz-on-the-move.

Been playing since release, levelled two characters almost exclusively in battlegrounds, and I've yet to see anyone fake cast once in this game. Not a single time.

I think my only CC is ...

4 sec 60 sec CD stun, almost all classes have.

a Mezz, that i can barely get off, and when i do someone just hits them or they are DoTed out.

1 Pushback, ineffective against rangers and made worse by leapers or dashing melee. (not saying broken, just that i need more counters)


Another problem, alot of times i feel helpless against interrupters. everything about commando is casting, even in assault specialist trying to renew HIB procs. I think commandos need an interrupt....seeing the amount of Damage Sorcerors have and the bbbllleeaarrggghh Tool Box they mount is ridiculous, after recently viewing a gentleman's post about their ridiculous hybrid builds.

Commandos need a way to survive CC spam and brutal melee interrupting them, ranged classes stack damage higher on me with their interrupts and CC, and in melee range after someone leaps or dashes through my knockback, i feel entirely helpless....

DPS Commando btw

I'd be ok with giving them the melee range interrupt PT/Vanguards get... not a ranged one or more CC those are both bad ideas. The knockback is already a little ridiculous(not as bad as sniper one but still pretty nasty).

Let's also not forget that on many maps even if the melee can get to you before dying he is very likely to get pushed off. On voidstar this isn't such a big deal, but on huttball it really sucks cause now they have to run back around the ramps to get to you.
