Here is the problem, there seem to be two conversations going on here: regs vs ranked.

First, I want to say, I really don't have a problem with the 5.0 merc. In the ranked venue, yes there are a tone of them, but you can beat them. Just last night, I was in a group that consisted of an assassin tank, jugg, sorc heal, and a Mara vs 4 mercs...one heals....and we beat them. In another match, 2 vs 2, others had been taken out, jugg and a Mara took out 2 mercs. No dodo, I saw this Mara take out a merc in maybe 4 seconds. I literally had a holy**** moment. Don't get me wrong, vs a very good merc, I get tore down on my jugg but, point here is that they can be beaten.

In regs, which to be honest I have a hard time playing atm, it is totally different. Players acting like ants, scattered all over maps, trying to 1v1 mercs wear me out. You can't beat a merc when u pulling 1000 dps. Come on people.

Nope i dont begurge a range class there ablity to kite not at all. I do begrudge a range class best choice is just to face tank. If you out kite me /tiphat but facetanking going blow for blow as merc burst/damage is as lethal as anything in this game shows that the class is overtuned

FYI i dont begurge hard damage stop either i just think 3 of them are silly

First off you would burn all your DCDs to face tank a Mara/Sent just to stay in the fight with them and then they would still burn you down....Unless of course they didn't use any of their own DCDs or CC....In which case yes you could face tank them on a Merc....but at that point face tanking has nothing to do with why you won...

A Mara or a Sin can beat a Merc/Mando easily enough if they know what they are doing...

Honestly the only classes that may be at a disadvantage against Merc/Mando are Sorcerer DPS (Merc's seem to be built specifically to kill them) and Juggernaut/Guardian because they are a bit slow...

Yeah im sure thats the case that the merc population has sky rocketed cause they are middle of the pack balance wise. I see to many people are invested in keeping their "skill". Ill wait for the impending nerf if it comes as validation. Until then keeping thinking your skilled and balanced. Im guessing you were cm 4xx4 doc 3x4c mr in pre cu and thought you were. Balanced

Actually I was TK/Commando and later BH/medic...By no means one of the OP specs....However I unlocked Jedi through holocrons and became Master saber/Master Healer/Enhancer 4004 with a Pre-CU saber...and that was pretty OP...

I had 3 accounts and did have a Doc for making buffs....If you really wanted to be OP you could run a melee stacker with a Mind fire pike.....that was nasty...Only took about 3 months of farming NS Elites to get a decent Mind fire pike...

I think I ran like 28 professions in that game between the three accounts.....oh nostalgia...

You seem pretty angry jumping to conclusions and attacking peoples gaming abilities....bad form man.

Yeah seems all post 9 not alot of jedi would risk it pre 9. Tkm/mando was awesome at one time early game knock down then flamer but they got nerfed. Pikes was only as you said. Your jedi spec was spot on as the 80 saber block along with healing and fr3 yoy were a wrecking ball, I stayed some form a tkm until the nge
