You forgot other protips :
  • CC, it does not stand for Crumbled Cookie but for Crowd Control guys.
    Use your stuns, sleeps, chokes. When you pull a group you can put a few on hold with sleeps/stuns/lifts and when some nice mobs tries to heals himself or wants to do a huge damage skill on you then you stun/disrupt.
  • Ow those pretty colors on the ground but too bad: It ain't a disco. That's the mob going for most of the times a nice pew pew skill on you. It does not mean you go stand in it and dance all pretty but evade.

This is why nothing objective can ever actually get done on the message board.

If someone even SUGGESTS that a zone might need rebalancing, people come out of the woodwork to say "Well u just sux. LMFAO learn2play!"

You would think that rational, reasonable people 'might' understand that even if I personally haven't had the same experience, it doesn't automatically invalidate the other players experience.

Voss has been easy for me, I am undergeared due to laziness, not wanting to travel to merchants, etc. The boss fights take a bit longer, but it is mostly plink, plink, plink away. I've noticed that time to kill bosses has gone up, so what was once a one minute encounter on early planets is now like two or three minutes of doing the same rotations over and over and over and over and over and over. AI sniper with healer, so dps isn't a problem--that said I feel for a tank going through that repetitive rotations of hotkeys. It gets to be a snoozefest after a few encounters.

But it doesnt mean it needs to be nerfed (Rebalance just another name for nerf) either.

Which the OP titled the thread!

Other day some guy wanted his final boss mob of storyline nerfed because he didnt outfit any of his companions and was under level (skipped content to race to end). Should we also take his claims into account or should we tell him to go outfit his companions and get the required levels?

Sorry but disagree, the problem is not the game here, its the player.

This game is set to the easy side of easy and when ever someone hits a difficult patch (rare as it might be) they scream bloody murder! Same thing happened from closed beta to retail, the game was dumbed down somewhat because we didnt jump all over those yelling for faster/easier/meme in closed beta.

Lesson learned.

If the OP had come here and made a title "is this hard or am I just doing wrong" and then went on to make a post about how he can t figure out how to beat encounter and would like suggestions, then you converse with him.

However OP came asking for NERFs

That should never be tolerated in todays standard of MMOs.
Seriously how low and simplistic do we need to go?

On Sentinel I felt this wall as soon as I hit the Dark Heart (or whatever, something like that) but on my Juggernaut I didn't get any problems :<.

I think the enemies just hit a lot harder than the other enemies and pure DPS classes have a little trouble with all the extra damage.

OP may just be using the wrong companion for his spec. Perhaps he is undergeared. Perhaps he's just doing it wrong.

Did this with my Gunslinger and had 0 problems. I did not use a healing companion or a defensive one. Akavi Sparr FTW, lets go pure DPS lets Go!!!

This is not even difficult, I have been gaming for 2 decades and MMO's are only hard when they force you to team. Plenty of Single-player games over the years that can give a lesson in pain. I am talking about 1 live for a long level with obstacles, no saving and checkpoints. Voss has none of that because if the OP just asked for help it would have been much smoother.
and the Force beat generic Swords and Magic any day. 8/26/14 That was my old signature but after RotHC, I went back to superheroes and swords and magic. Now waiting on Dragon Age and a SWTOR story expac for my Bioware fix 7/30/15 Returned for KotFE. Finally, a story expac.

Actually if enough players do not experience the same problem then it is not widespread. In fact, if we say that only you have a problem with a level-then it is likely just you. If Voss truly needed the devs to intervene then it would be a major issue. The fact is Voss does not need a major rebalancing, and it is not broken. Take Taris after Launch, they had to go and fix that area because many people experienced problems on that planet. Put in a ticket with customer service, just do not get mad if hardly anybody else puts in a ticket too because they ran right through Voss.
