Ilum will still exist as a destination for those interested in open PvP, but it won't be a place to earn commendations for end game PvP armor. "We're keeping Ilum as-is. But I think almost all of our problems that occur in open world PvP are because of the fact that the rewards there, the behavior was less about having fun in that area and more about exploiting to get the rewards faster."


Translation:
"We don't know how to fix Ilum so we're abandoning it."
My translation was exploiters ruined the zone for everyone else so they could get their phat lewtz. There will always be people ruining something for others, it's the way of the world.

Defending a class usually like you said, that person needs to be a better player. I've played it, I beat them, therefore cause I know the mechanics of one, and I still say they need the nerf.
Level 25 is actually not helpful for forming a useful opinion, on most classes, in my opinion, since you don't get enough skills to form a good opinion- you just get enough to get a taste of whther you might like it. And if you are calling for a nerf in multiple classes then that's also problematic because there really isn't a reason to call for one.

If you survive solely by spamming lightning, then you are being carried, either by your team or your faction.

They may not have a "synergy", and they may take skill to use, but my pyro merc eats arsenal mercs for breakfast and can single handed change the course of a warzone. Why? Mobility, brains, timing, skill and iterrupts don't turn me into a wet noodle.

And, you are right there is no synergy with rail shot at all it is just totally useless armor pen. Just because it isn't a one button wonder doesn't mean it is weak. Much like a fire mage in wow in the right hands it is amazing, but hey arcane mages take skill too right?

Oh ok, sorry to add in a few dots, here and there and a death field, i'm just saying the jist of it, not gonna tell out my whole sequence of things that I do. Sorry but you pretty much do just spam lightning to get the proc for darkness/chain lightning..

It just cause I say other nerfs should be implemented as well, does not mean for all classes. I agree to an extent of the BH/Commando nerf, for I have a 26 Commando, and I'm sorry spamming one button pretty much a whole WZ match, is 1. Not fun and 2. Not skilled. Therefore they either need to debuff the damage of Grav/Tracer or figure something out.

My favorite thing about posts like these is the people who pretend that only people who have never played Sorceror/Sage make them.

Well said.

I love the "backpeddling noob" syndrome people like to fall back on. (Yes, I backpeddle, Yes I still win most of the time)

How's that strafing around auto facing casters working out for you?

This part amazed me. Why spend countless dollars working on a system that you will rarely use at end game? I honestly cannot remember the last time I pulled my companion out.

If so, they will need to buff AP tree, because why take a melee only PT over a marauder?

Lasmi- 40 Pyrotech Powertech-
