Thread: What the hell is wrong with this?
That's exactly why I never take any Nerfherder's rants seriously when they say we are over-powered...
They never seem to take into consideration Ranged Mitigation, 75% reduction in PvP (applies to everyone in PvP), Heat Resists, Our ranged restriction, Our Delay, Out Speed, Our Aucuracy, and so on...
The devs consider us the Heavy Damage profession and that is the reasons we have so many penalties & restrictions, yet we are out damaged DPS (damanger per second) by riflemen and out various melee professions out damage us as well...
The Combat Balance is suppose to address this with new speed, accuracy and damage formulas....
You get Damage Mitigations from variuos elite combat professions. Ex. Riflemen, Pistoleers, etc. get Ranged Dam. Mitigations 1-3. Fencers, TKAs get Melee Dam.Mitigations 1-3. You get the 3rd ones once you master one of those professions.
Dam.Mitigations, IIRC, reduce damage for that type sequentially. Mitigation 1 reduces it by 25%, 2 by 50%, and 3 by 75%.
