SOLUTION: Everyone pvp naked with the recruit mk2 weapons or wpn + offhand, no more gear only player skill left. Lets see who wins then

(the previous statement was a generalization and not an attempt to say i would beat you into a bloody pulp if gear were taken out of the equation.)

But seriously, has anyone ever tried that?

What do you think the results would be?

How many people would refuse to participate?

If so, why? And be HONEST, tell the truth, and hopefully no one will judge you for it. You WILL be judged if you lie Think really hard, if you refused to participate in a lab test like this one is it b/c you're afraid your gear is protecting you or are you afraid that someone might see how bad you really are??

It's called lowbie pvp. Smash owns there as well.

While it sounds interesting. There may be an issue there on class balance if they took into account (which they probably did) the amount of armor you would have (light, medium, heavy)

It is gonna get a nerf bat, I was at one of the cantina crawls, in fact the one in London and the dev there said its gonna get it. So its just time till the lolsmash hits the derp. Was one of the biggest cheers when that was said.

Smash may be powerful, but it is the only thing that the spec has going for it. Its a perfect example of a one trick pony build. Most AoE damage gets healed. So saying that the Jugg hits 4 ppl with 7k means nothing. how often do you see 4 1v1 happening right next to each other? And if its 4v2 then the 4 should beat the 2 even if the smash hits for 10k. So you are now left with the 1v1 situations. A 7k onetime hit means nothing when every other attack the Jugg has is sub par. I think people get freaked out when they see half their HP get melted in one shot, but its is no different than when I get 2 maul crits in one fight (thats just about every fight) The difference is that all my other attacks are so much better than the rest of the Jugg attacks. Same goes for just about every other DPS spec besides maybe the Mercs and Commandos when it comes to out DPSing a Jugg. No serious PvPer sits down to roll a DPS toon and picks a Jugg. With that said, I do not know how anyone can think anything about a Jugg is OP.

Bioware stop listening to people crying because they don't know their class and they die. Making this changes to try to balance will ruin pvp in this game.

More PVE screwing in the name of PVP. As is Jugg tanks didn't suck hard enough.
