I don't want this to happen but some serious balance is needed.
Bingo! I main my scoundrel and regs is really fun but I feel my class has no business taking the spot of an assassin/PT/sage in ranked games. Also I can't be bothered to play the FOTM classes because they're not fun for me.

No-shades on imp side on harbinger wins 75-80% of his games. So sounds like maybe just you dont have any buisness taking any toon in ranked.

Players are way to quick to blame the class or gear. The only class that has an actual right to whine about ranked is mara. OPs do fine and still drop monster heals look at Hottie. Stop blaming everything else and adapt your skill to get better. Mercs might need some help but it would require a cut to their damage which idk if BW will do. Its one of the top PVE classes so I dont see BW changing it.

You want to take that class into ranked spend the time to get better to do ranked. Otherwise reroll and be unsuccessful on a FOTM class as well.

Bolded part is insanely wierd coming from a sin player, among other things, and holds no truth whatsoever.

Have you ever played an MMO before? Go look at any ranked season of WoW, and the majority of successful teams will use very specific comps like the old shatterplay comp, god comp, jungle cleave etc. Certain classes will dominate in specific seasons due to imbalance. And WoW is the gold standard for arena play. SWTOR is not WoW, it is much worse. You may be a highly knowledgable player about SWTOR specifically, but you have just no clue about the meta of arenas in general and just how much class imbalance occurs in arena. They are so specific with only 4 v 4 small areas with no objectives, certain classes excel in that much moreso than others. In any part of any MMO, arena displays specific class imbalances more than any other part of the game. It is impossible to balance the game around arena, especially in a pve-centric game like SWTOR with low dev resources.

It is strong, sin always has been. It is not however the most OP spec in history. It is a top dog atm because people arent figuring out how to best them. As a sin in the last 2 weeks as a stealth I take the most damage.

If you struggle focus them its that simple. Yes they have survivability and you wont win 1v1. What class beats sin 1v1 besides old OP jugg tank hybrid.

Its kinda how it goes. Strong becomes gamebreaking very quick in alot of unskilled players vocabularies. Same thing how lag becomes hacks very quick.

Interesting how the mind works yes?
Stop being an ostrich and get your head out of the sand.

OP, do you have any videos of the OP Hated Assassin facerolling everyone and everything? Because all I can say is that I haven't noticed this in 50+ games of P VP on the Ebon Hawk, and I'd be interested in seeing what you're talking about.

Then please tell me : Who spreads the word that Ranked should consist of only those classes whoch are most OP ?
There's the "will to win" combined with "absolute min-maxing" to get the slightest advandage over other chars ...

Ummm i play merc and commando lol. Hence the all 16 AC 55+. Takes up to much time to name them all and why give people a name to focus? Merc/Mando is one of the highest DPSing classes right now lol. If you made them tanky they would absolutely destroy. So where is the false info?

The fact that you take your info from a PvE parsing dummy.
