Looks to me like you're scrambling to retort, Crowlos. Especially with responses such as: Crowlos wrote: "you know numbers never meant anything right?" Numbers mean just about everything in an MMO. And no, you aren't going to win this deba...

"Anything you can do, I can do better". If MKT was a much better ranged class than Rifleman, that makes Rifleman useless in my very unforgiving opinion. There was no niche where Rifleman would outclass MKT, unlike CR2. In standard ranged c...

Roukan : The only ground with /face on the ground was when it was combined with autorun. Players could then target anyone they wanted and "wiggle" around them. Especially annoying for hyperjumps; there were times when I'd jump only to have...

It's easy to paint a ridiculous light on the issue of emotes allowing autotracking, but guess what: if it was worthless, people wouldn't be doing it. Duh. The issue isn't serious in regular combat, just as /face wasn't either. No one reall...

Granted, I've only taken a quick gander, and a short field test on some of these MKT changes (and I'm sure others have done a lot more testing than I at this point), but here are my first thoughts. First, I see that universal knife timer a...

Agreed, Arc. I'm quite curious to see a post-Update 50 world. But, my opinion on Disguise was asked, and I just can't resist a good rant

You can take my point all out of context all you want, it doesn't make it invalid. I'm talking about shooting someone stealthed via a Disguise when I say "Unbreakable". And I'm also saying that Stealth in plain view isn't really Stealth at...

Unbreakable form of stealth? Since when? I can guarantee that disguise is not an "unbreakable form of stealth". I shoot you. Disguise doesn't break, unlike all other forms of stealth. How is this not clear, exactly? It's not really stealth...

I'm of the opinion that Disguise was never designed with PvP in mind; only PvE. Running through mission areas undetected and whatnot. Because, really: an unbreakable form of stealth? Guh?! Kinda defeats the purpose of "stealth" when a Spy...

SHOUTING HURTS MY EARDRUMS!!!

Inactivity is a bit of an exaggeration, don't you think? Staying in a corner is a death sentence in normal combat situations (at least, for me). Using the corner, however, is perfectly legitimate option. It's the same as using a fence/buil...

Considering spies have an unbreakable stealth in the form of Disguises, it's a problem. There is no way, at present, to avoid a stealth attack with normal world movements (ie: "dodging" an oncoming spy) once your shield is down. Why? Becau...

While standing with your back in a corner, you can still get punted. That's a problem.

It's been happening for a long, long time. But lately, it's gotten a lot worse. Sometimes, it is rubberbanding. An odd "shift" in position knocks you out of conceal, I've seen it happen a few times. But, often it isn't. Load up Escape and...

...any other snipers notice that Concealment seems to be breaking a LOT more lately? While PvPing today, it broke in the transition from E&E more than half of the time.

NightTrace is indeed correct. If you do not have Spy Style loaded, you get the error message of "You do not have this ability loaded.", yet you are still able to Sneak. If you do have it loaded, you're automatically shifted to Spy style. S...

Because then there is some actual ebb and flow to combat. And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is why we want these changes. Nothing ruins the fun out of PvP then when the fellow you killed gets blue-rezzed, stands there knowing you can't do an...

why would you become flaged for rezzing someone who isn't flaged?!? Uh huh.. unfortunately, that would be part of the desired change. Why is it that death removes flag? If there's a possibility of being rezzed and staying in combat, they s...

My whole point with the argument of calling for MA and gunmen nerfs was that it gives the devs more work to do. the way you put it is say we rated the 3 classes, MKT,MA and guns on 1-10 scale. what i interpreted from you is you say MKT str...

sooo your logic is really flawed then. if you feel MKT is overpowered and still call for a nerf of MA and guns as well?? How is my logic flawed? I gave MKT more focus because, as it stands, it's the tree needing the most changes. That cert...

Actually, it's 4 seconds on the family timer. But the point is the same. Now, if they juggle abilities properly in interlock, they do get applied pretty darn quickly.

It's not fine. Some of the timers are as borked as MKT: Slow, and Root. Wayyyy too long CR1 style, and overlapping use/effect timers. Plus, stackable DoT's. Only difference is, more people like to exploit MKT's borked use timers than Hacke...
