Phyrexianist Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 These classes. Getting owned by the surge nerf. This is a buff to healers. Reducing DPS spike damage... Ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelliMelon Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Haha, healers use surge too (I'm a sawbones). It isn't a nerf to a specific class, just to a system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraegore Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Anyone that thinks damage isnt too high in pvp is a moron. 10% isnt enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be so; but you're slightly retarded if you think that Surge isn't better for some classes. It favors tanks, it favors healers, it favors sorcerers. Marauders, Powertech and Operatives are getting screwed again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyrexianist Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Anyone that thinks damage isnt too high in pvp is a moron. 10% isnt enough. Not a nerf to damage. It's a nerf to critical damage. DoT sorc will be fine. Healers will be fine. (even the ones hitting 1million heals) Tanks will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less damage is less damage, not only do you die too fast in this game but you do so while stunned most of the time. Maybe ill actually be able to play my character now.

You will get killed by groups just the same as always. It just gives less skilled players more time to react, lowering the skill cap further. If anything, reducing the individuals ability to make a difference by spiking one of a group down. Pathetic really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying that many healers (operatives included) stack surge as their 3rd stat. 10% isn't a big deal for the surge on just one crit. You'll be fine, I promise.

Ineedmoreletters Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I hate seeing teams stacked with tanks and heals with this change it is going to be more annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlette Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I'm gonna watch closely how this one is gonna pan out... A friend of mine pointed out that the nerf was needed to pave the way for further gear progression in the future... cuz atm you're able to cap it and then what do you do? This way once they release the new tier you'll be able to cap it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhazesx Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) DPS Sorcerers/Sages depend heavily on surge also. Edited February 10, 2012 by Rhazesx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlette Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 bottom line it's a nerf to burst damage which corresponds to their initial claim that game won't be as bursty as WoW. I'm kinda happy about it. I never liked that 3 shotting thingy. At the guy above that said it will lower skill cap cuz it will allow slower players to react: How exactly does killing someone in 4-5 hits transforms into skill?
