Did you read everything? Doesn't seem like it, as he's not pointing at just one thing...

Sorry, the only math I see here pertains to expertise. simply saying "heals was 2 gud, nao dey beterz" doesn't make a case.

Truce ice:

There were alot of changes in this patch yes, but if you read the forums. Alot of people are complaining about the expertise scaling changes, thinking that DPS got a 10% bonus while not understanding the math. This thread is for those people.

In other words. Expertise changes are fine. Maybe not every change in 1.2. But honestly, as a healer with only 1 night of pvp to judge by....seems fine to me.

Alright initially reading this sentence was legitimately difficult for me so let me fix it for you (I highlighted the blatant misspellings and missing capitals to start). What you were trying to say was, "The explanation about the healing was totally incorrect; Bioware actually reduced healing due to all of the whiny threads appearing on the forums. These threads were generated mostly by below average players, incapable of killing a healing class with a superior attacking class, whose low maturity caused them to provide lacking evidence or misinformation as a whole."



Now that I deciphered your post let me retort, the math proposed in the initial post was fairly elementary yes; however this was done on purpose (in all likelihood) to allow for public ease of understanding, specifically for folks like you. That being said, the concepts provided were indeed correct mathematically and showed the thought process behind the implemented expertise changes, and exactly how they were balanced properly post-patch 1.2. If you read more than the first sentence you too may have come to this conclusion, but I find myself impressively disappointed, yet not surprised at how a member of this "community" would respond in a fashion like you just did; leading me to contemplate deeply about how persons such as you really do exist commonly in the world as people, and are not just figments of an accidental glitch in a metaphorical internet or faceless nothings behind a keyboard as unconscious human assumptions would have me believe.







In a short closing for you (for you to understand what was said here): no, you are wrong as well as dumb.

You truly are troll baiting here, guess I nibbled a little but I won't bite all the way.

Here's a totally crazy idea - if there was a bug yesterday causing the fast TTK, then how about a BioWare Community Rep clarify this rather than let the PvP community have a meltdown?

Same reason we don't have server forums. It would require too many moderators to make a post and reply to it.

Cause in a state of panic and dis function you go to the key source, instead of warning the whole population and making everyone blow a main vein.

Worst case scenario has already happened, which is nerd rage and crying.

Soon the worst will be over and this will be a thing of the past when it comes to day 2 of 1.2.

Catch my drift?

Past the lack of Bioware rep acknowledgement does this mean my dreams of killing people with my healer have been dashed since it was all a bug?
