Daylooin Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) The title says it all, did Vanguards get nerfed? My DPS Vanguard is getting destroyed in PvP, even though he has fully augmented EWH. He is lvl 55 too, so its not pre-55 WZs I'm talking about.

DrakenZ Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Nope! Just take off all your gear and bolster will take care fo the rest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfourcustom Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Yup, we have had our burst taken away from us while every otehr class now has insane burst the devs took away the one thing that made us great and that was our great burst dps... your vg is now useless and has no place in even reg wzs anymore.. sorry to say that but its true.. Its GG for vgs really hope BW fixs this stupid ****.. if not guess its time to move mains and be a OP shaow or smasher monkey.. Or we could all roll commandos and kill people in 2 gcds cause thats pure balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daylooin Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Its so depressing, I'm trying to find some skill tree or something that will make me do even half as good as I did before, but no luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philelectric Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Even if I've never played a VG/PT, I hate the nerf you guy received. imo a SMALL nerf was needed to your burst if, and only if you could get a survivability buff to balance it. Your best defensive tool was killing the ennemy quickly, now you have nothing. No burst and same survivability. I'm not saying you are not viable, in fact I cant judge it.

Maybe back in 1.9 a small nerf was needed but now every *********** class in this game has insane burst and we have none.. pointless commandos can kill someone in 3 *********** gcds... and now we cant kill anyone good way to kill a class bw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nommaz Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Welcome to MMO's... all classes get buffed and nerfed at some stage or another, my advice is keep playing it, you'll be forced to improve and improvise , then when you get buffed again all will be right with the world, unless you just want to be OP in that case roll the FOTM...

WaldoA Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) I played my 47 PT yesterday and was still competing for top DPS spot. I also wasn't running around spamming DoTs before anyone says, it was huttball and I was playing objectively (2 scores aswell). It just feels like a nerf because classes like Sorc/Sniper/Merc (all played a lot) can do their burst from a distance, and you'll often lose a ton of health, if not all before you even get to them. Though, if you get close to them, you should still be able to kill them. I kept dying to a PT on my Sorc yesterday, that slow tied to CGC is so annoying when you're at the other end of it >_< Edited April 11, 2013 by WaldoA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_FLIPmode Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Maybe, just maybe, we could get to 55 first and get the new gear and THEN see how we compare versus other classes? People are jumping the gun too quickly IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafy_Bug Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Aaawww!! Here have a bearhug! . When you were killing me in 3s in ranked wz no matter the gear (dps gear or tank gear), you were balanced . So enjoy being nerfed just like most classes have been. Year of the vanguard is gone, tis year of the sniper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Year of the vanguard is gone, tis year of the sniper. If you were getting killed in 3s with tank gear, then you need to l2p. Oh and snipers always had the superior long-range damage AND better survivability than vanguards even before 2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are jumping the gun too quickly IMO. I dont believe it! Small, almost unnoticable - but here it is. A voice of reason in a neverending whine/troll VG/PT thread(s). Some people told me it might happen, yet i wasnt really convinced until now. Thank you alot kind sir, you did brighten my day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
