To the biased Sents/Maras defending their OP class

ROFL! Well played sir, well played...

That is ********. When shadows vanish, all heals are reduced by 100% on them.

You are absolutely right. The TTK is the game changer, not changes to mauraders.

I remember life before GBTF. Those of you that don't, which are the same that now cry for it to go, should think about why they added it in the first place.

Without GBTF, we're dead on sight, and we can't do anything about it. "But but but everyone else is too!" Not really. Snipers have cover, cover pulse, entrench, not to mention range. Operatives have double our CC ability in addition to true stealth, their DPS role is also that of a carry rather than a fighter like us (MOBA terms for those of you who know it). DPS juggs have guardian leap to get themselves clear in addition to push/leap. DPS Assassins again are carries (though a bit underpowered atm). DPS Sages get triple our CC, a instant cast bubble, sprint and that all so lovely range. DPS PTs get a hybrid range setup and can frontload a decent amount of damage. DPS Mercs? Well, they've been a waste of a raid slot since August, and aren't the measuring stick for anything to be compared to.

The entire design of Warriors/Knights requires them to stay in melee for prolonged periods. There's no frontloading damage and getting out like Sins/Ops. There's no safety of range like PTs or Sages, there's no knockbacks or jumping out like juggs.

The ENTIRE point of the Sent/Mara class is to force the fight into the 6th, 7th, 8th GCD, ane we've got to be in melee range, directly in front of the firing squad, to do it. Once the fight gets going, we've got some buildup, and we can do what we came to do. It's a wreaking-ball style, and the complaint is that once we're started we can't be readily stopped? Uhh... That's the point. GBTF/UR is a "last stand" mechanic. I'd gladly take a 100% healing reduction on it, but outright removing it is shortsighted and would require buffs elsewhere, ie letting our Focus bar start at full.

Now, a lot of the QQ stems from Ravage/Master Strike. The damage is fine, just shorten the cancel range by about 1m. Seriously, just walk away rather than eating it. Against combat/carnage, just use a knockback already.

People look at Sent/Mara and see carry. That's not how the class plays, nor how it is designed.

Mauraders should have the best defensive talents out of dps, they are a squishy class in melee range. There really is only one CD that will stop a ranged person from killing a Sent in melee range and it only lasts for the length of a flash grenade. Take away their CDs and I will kill each of them in about 6-7 seconds.

Your vangaurd doesn't need cool downs like a sent because they naturally take less damage. If 20% damage stops you from attacking someone you really need to get better gear, change specs or do something drastic.

Negatory good buddy, just OP ones that practically give damage immunity. I know you guys like to claim that it's not immunity, and you are correct, however you clearly failed out of math class if you can't see that it's practically the same thing.

So an operative is a melee fighter yet has no immunity defence. Flash grenade can be broken then we take damage. You still take 1% damage from all sources. Operatives are just as squishy as mauraders.

A maurader has damage immunity and can easly kill or finish people.off during that time.
