Imo the damage penalty should be higher than 5% and I would suspect that will be something on Bioware's radar for future tweaks. If it's not then it should be. Compare the damage output of Shadows and Assassins combined with their high survivability with the noticeably lower damage of tank spec Powertechs/Vangaurds, Juggers and Guards.




I would agree with this. I think "overpowered" is far too strong a word. There are minor balance issues that will need to be tweaked, and we'll no doubt see them almost every update for a while to come as they take in ongoing feedback on the classes.
You guys have no idea what you are talking about. I have a BM geared Tankasin and yes I can 1 v 1 any class but its because of survivability and self heal..Not because I have some mythical OMG dps crits! LMAO.. you prob got hit by a dps spec assassin and assumed it was a tankasin. Tankasins burst has to be set up. Its not on command.


Also If you are making a judgement call based on WZ #s then you are again mistaken. Tankasins have AOE spam and survivability so they will score well in Wz's.

And no im not bad..Im very very good.. But I also do very well on my sent sorc and sniper. Try dueling ...Its a great tool to help you get better in game.

What is a myth?


I can guarantee that a Sorcerer is both easier to play, and more powerful than a Maurader (group play).


Now, I have no problem with some classes being harder to play. In fact, I prefer playing the Maurader, and enjoy that most Mauraders I come across are average at best. But the Sorcerer class is borderline 'face-roller' material compared to a Maurader.

+1000

Play a Guardian and even though our class is said to be subpar, I can hold my own. It's all about how well you get to know your class. It's like your girlfriend, you have to know everything about her ;].

while ill say no class is OP to all classes i will say people with the ability to cc while still staying in stealth have an outrageous advantage. i have literally been cc'd 7 times in a row by the same stealth guy before he grew the balls to leave stealth. (i could use my cc break but he would just restealth and cc me again) leaving me screwed. so i had to wait for him to get bored.

now im not saying they have the advantage when attacking, like in voidstar anyone who thinks about how to stop the cc and cap will realize pretty quickly all u have to do is stand by the pillars and face the door. (making the walk to long for 1 person to cc and cap)
but the whole cc'd constantly by 1 stealth person defending a door while he calls for backup is pretty ridiculous.

im not qq'ing, but being able to cc without breaking stealth is definitely over powered in pvp
i dont need a sig, im famous *****
