Remember BW has metrics to prove that a class is OP.

 

Metrics = counting the number of QQ posts.

 

rofl!

Nerf this thread

Best thread ever.

Nerf this thread

 

Noooooooooooooo!

You forgot to leave out the very important crux of being a forum cryer.

 

7- The switch.

 

Once you've gotten all other classes nerfed, begin to beef up defences for your class with ad hominem attacks against anyone who either says your class needs a nerf next, or who talks about the nerfs coming to their class as if they'll make the class less viable. Remember- when another class gets nerfs it's well deserved and they can adapt- when your class is going to get nerfed, it's a weak class that has no advantages in pvp and a nerf would kill its viability.

This is by all standards the best thread I've found on this forum. Quite possibly also the one people will find most useful considering how crying for nerfs is what all the cool kids are up to these days

Sticky this, because it's true.

I feel a desire to add something to this but I can't, it's all there.

Too true. Too true.

/ slow clap

 

Great work

Gotta be the best thread I've seen in ages...

 

Two thumbs up.. d -_- b

Exactly.

God forbid BW balances their game the way they think it should be.

 

This thread sounds like tears after a good ***-spanking. Smells like you're butthurt your class is getting changed. Ohh yes, the OP plays a vanguard. Probably assault spec.

 

Don't think for half a second that BW nerfs classes on ONLY forums whinging. Remove the tinfoil hat please. Some community feedback might be taken in consideration, but anyone who though this game had PvP class balance right from the get go is just trolling.

 

Go play WAR and see how far it led them, to stick with the fail class / gear balance. 1 NA server and 10k worldwide subs.

 

Suxxxess isn't ?

The above is a prime example of the OP.

 

And for the record, I now play: all 8 classes.

 

4 50s, a 42, a 36 and 2 sub-20s. PvPd with all of them.

 

Kinda hard to claim I am trying to avoid a nerf for "my class" when I play all 8 of them huh ?

 

/pwned

Great thread.

 

A bit sad though that it applies so damn well to some of the posters here.

 

And of course I request this be sticky-ed.

Where's the QQ thread I created ? You're the one QQing about QQers.

You're welcome.

bump for BTE

Yes, the QQ is getting worse every day.

This has got to be one of the funniest things I've ever read on here.

 

The only way to make it any better would be if BioWare would show a sence of humor and make it a sticky...maybe not forever, but that would just make so many people's day.

 

Nice Job, OP~!

Yes, the QQ is getting worse every day.

 

And yet you keep coming back. So it must not be THAT bad.

Please sticky this it's always relevant.

HAHAHA! Brilliant!

 

P.S. It appears that too many people are following this guide!

This should be a sticky.

 

/signed

This is probably the most successful guide ever written for anything.

Welcome to Zaodon's PvP Guide to Crying for Nerfs!

 

The following is a guide you should follow whenever you want to create "Nerf (class goes here)" threads in this forum.

 

1. Have Selective Memory

If you see an opponent attacking a team mate and kill them easily, only to get ganked by that same opponent 2 minutes later when they pop out of nowhere and attack you while you're engaged with 3 other enemies and at 65% health with no cooldowns left, you need to engage in something called "Selective Memory". You must block out the fact that they were an easy kill a few moments ago, and only complain on the forums about how they easily killed you. Use the terms "insane", "overpowered", and "ridiculous" to make your point stick.

 

2. Ignorance is Bliss

Never go to fan websites, wiki's or other sources of information to learn about all classes, abilities and talents. Never. By remaining ignorant of the actual features of SWTOR, you can claim things that are simply untrue/impossible. Examples include "He knocked me down and landed 7 attacks before I got up", "I'm a lvl 50 tank-spec with 60 valor and full PvP gear and he 3-shotted me", or "I was chain-stunned by him 5 times in a row and died."

 

3. Wield Your Ego

Claim to be the absolute best player in the world at SWTOR and PvP. Provide examples of how you "pwned" 5 people at once the "other day", and how you scored in Huttball with "the entire other team beating on you". Then claim that the class you want to nerf can beat you at will, and therefore since you are sooooo "uber", there is no possible way they could defeat you unless their class was OP.

 

4. Deny Reality

Even though SWTOR PvP is team based, you must never, ever admit this, no matter what you do. Use the term "1v1" constantly, to the point of nauseum. Never admit that all Warzones are won or lost as a team.

 

5. Exploit n00bs

As with all MMOs, SWTOR will have a lot of players who are not great at PvP, but will enter Warzones to try it out for the fun of it. But, the reality is, these people are n00bs and will not be very good at it. Your job is to deny this, and claim that every single player in a PvP zone is an expert, who never makes mistakes, never does n00bish things, has perfect tactics and strategies, and is top ranked. When these "experts" are getting killed a lot in PvP (and make sure you have videos of this happening), use that as "evidence" that the class you want to nerf is "overpowered" because they must be if they are killing all these "PvP Vets".

 

6. Anecdotal Evidence is Key

If there is a class you want to nerf, be sure to get some screenshots or videos which show how "overpowered" they are. Even though these classes will routinely score near the bottom of the scoreboard, wait until you are in a match where coincidence has them at the top (preferably, #1), and screenshot/fraps it. Use this as your "evidence" that all players of that class are "OP" and lack skills and use the easy button, and claim they "always" score at the top. If someone posts screenshots/videos of that class scoring poorly, claim that their screenshot/video is "an aberration", and that yours is the case in "virtually all warzones."

 

Hahah, All I see is a guy with too much time on his hands.
