You guys would cry a river if you had to face the same thing melee has been dealing with forever.

2. I'm not making any suggestions. I just want you guys to acknowledge the truth: There's no real skill involved in playing the class. We're arguing apples and oranges here. You're arguing that there's no other way to play the class. And I'm arguing that the entire class itself is easymode.

So let me repeat myself. If you guys had a range requirement and a manual-facing requirement, the population of your class would decrease significantly because it would be too difficult for 90% of the people playing it.
I have a 50 jugg in all-but-3-pieces champion gear, and it's not any more difficult to play than a Trooper. Anybody who says that is trying to stoke their own ego.

Honestly, the ones who whine about GR/TM are the ones that don't play the class. Sages whining about other classes make me laugh, that's a class that's as easy as it gets to play. You can do nothing but use project and pebbles and top the charts. It's the easy way to get Battlemaster.

Tracer Missle is just fine.

I, play a Merc & a Maurader - Valor 63.

If your tired of Spam from Tracer Missle then have the Dev's upgrade Pyrotech.

It's in desperate need of work.
Why should a grav round do more dmg than a TM round ? They are mirror classes, isnt it.

people on my server even send my angry whispers in wzs because im pwning them. My rep on both pub and sith cause whole teams to hunt me down because i destroy them that much. first off. lvl 10-44. ive invested a lot of creds buying the best gear i can possibly obtain. im sith btw so i dont know anything about the trooper counterpart. not only having gear. ive read the trees and put together a pretty awesome build imo. k. first off. you need to spam tracer because if you have it specced in your tree. it stacks debuffs on the target. 5 stacks. which then sets up for unload. rail shot or heat seeking missles. so people that sit there and say we missle spam. well thats how it works. if u know how to play anyway. sorcs force lightning spam. dot and run spam. Snipers spam. everyone spams some sort of attack in a way. As a bh. i use tracer shot. fusion missle. rail shot. death from above. heat seeking missles and of course tracer missle. I love rocket punch. its my fav. can u just spam tracer? yes but you will not be a great player and probably get pwned. why doesnt anyone cry about all the other classes spams? its the way the game is made. i dont cry about force pull and sprint because thats what they chose to play. you people need to stop pvping if you cant accept the classes people chose to play. i laugh when the wz is all sorcs. anyways. bh/troopers are more than just missle spammers. so if yer crying. roll a bh and see for yourself before you accuse.
Funny because, I received hateful messages the other day as we won a WZ, I led my team in dmg / killing blows and was solo PuG rolling an assault built vanguard just for lols. The guy looked at the scoreboard and saw a trooper dominating, thought 'GRAV ROUND SPAMMER !!!1' I replied to him 'I'd rather spam ion pulse' and how that was much harder. He was like 'what's ion pulse ??6' I replied 'that's a spammable that's worth spamming, much like grav round, but am not a commando y'know' He then said 'troopers are OP grats on rolling an OP class' And he was a friggin consular (don't remember if he was shadow or sage though).

I don't get the hate though. Vanguards completely blow non-healing commandos out the water, but people don't even notice them or what ? I know, I play both.

will you STOP TALKING ABOUT BOUNTY HUNTERS WHEN YOU MEAN MERCENARYS!!!!!

please, us powertechs is bounty hunters too and being put in the same basket as the tracermonkeys offends me.

anyway, fight vs. tracermonkey ... interrupt tracer missile, watch him stare at you for 4sec. not knowing what to do(the REALLY good ones actually use unload if you interrupt them but thats only 1 out of 10 times...)

and just for the record, rep commands are just the same...

Not really. Anyone who calls trooper easymode is telling it like it is. But yeah, I'd love to one on one another jugg that only uses 5 abilities (if it's really like playing a trooper as you say). That'll be a quick and easy fight. Hell, I'll even fight you naked.

And Additionally Don't run up in here flashing a few pieces of champ gear like I'm supposed to be impressed, son. If you got that crap using a sequence of 5 abilities (again, if you play it like you play a trooper) it shows a fundamental dysfunction of the pvp system, not that you're some all powerful jugg-Jesus.
