I dont like to troll too much.I dont like pvp right now due to the rampant poisons and diseases. But honestly, are you guys that wrapped up in your own ego to not logically look at the bugs in your class that are killing pvp?
LoS?
Range?
Havla?
Poison stacking?
Poison/Disease incap?
Come one guys seriously. Why are you not trying to help fix the bugs rather than complaining that so many people complain about you.
You fix the bugs, the 75% damage reduction doesnt need to happen.
WHY ARE YOU NOT TRYING TO FIX THE BUGS?!?!?!?!?!

Range was our question for the '19 Questions' Thread. The devs RESPONDED to it by stating range would be reduced.
LoS fixes are ALREADY being worked on by the devs(check patch notes and recent posts by TH)
Havla has ALREADY been reported.
Poison Stacking is allowed with any DoTs. Not really a big issue when the time intervals(without havla) are taken into account.
Poison/Disease Incap was submitted with the Combat Medic Top 5 issues as the Correspondent Issue. This was SEVERAL Months ago.
Stop trolling for a second and do a search...

I did do a search for about 20 minutes on these boards looking at about 6 pages of posts, and not one single concern about the bugs in your class, only people laughing at people complaining about them in game.
I am aware of the fixes for LoS on TC. I am aware that Havla was brought up.
My question is why nobody on this board replies to every nerf post with "fix our bugs first and then see if the nerf is needed."

Because it's what we've been saying for months on end and no one ever listened? Because the trolls keep coming and the nerf herders keep ranting? Because, finally, folks just got tired of educating the flamers(who don't listen anyway) and have settled for joking around instead?

/sigh. We do say exactly this. And then more people come to complain about the very same set of issues. I suppose that we could respond to every single "combat medics need nerfed" post with a friendly "we need to fix the bugs first" response, but after seeing half a dozen nerf CMs posts a day, we've basically given up on being friendly. Unless the original poster is being friendly, giving reasonable alternatives to a damage nerf, etc. Then we get some decent discussions (untill someone jumps into the thread calling for a 75% damage reduction...).
The "fix our bugs first" answer or thejust hasn't been effective. Unfortunately, about the only thing that has been effective is SOE employee locking down threads.
I actually see very little of what you describe as "people laughing at people complaining about them in game" (at least in this forum). I do see a lot of short-tempered combat medics, but we've all lost our patience.

In all honesty, flaming and hostility aside, we should probably make a "all known CM bugs/issues" list, and add it to the "interesting threads" post (or maybe even sticky it, if it will help detur the trolls).
Either I (or somebody else *cough* *cough* 
) will make a new thread which is "prettier", but off hand, which (active) bugs are there. I can think of:
) will make a new thread which is "prettier", but off hand, which (active) bugs are there. I can think of:-+65m range, initial throw range
-Area poisons, will not give a TEF if not initial target
-disease incapping
-Halva allowing poisons to be spammed exceptionally fast
-Poisons stacking (unconfirmed "bug" or "intentional"
-Area poisons AoE unaffected by LoS, either to CM or to initial target, (unconfirmed "bug" or "intentional")
-Skill tapes not working
I *know* I am missing several. Any other ones that you can recall off hand?
Edit: Oh, and the 75% damage reduction not affecting combat medics. It's not a bug, bet we should list it there (with link to posts) so people know the devs have actively chosen this.
