Thread: Change to our bleeds
This one will make bleeds a lot weaker.
And yes, it is a bug, be sure it will be fixed someday.
now I don't only have a useless squadleader, ch-skills I have to give up when the patch comes but also a useless swordsman..
Personally, I don't have one problem with this.
For those of you saying it "destroys our class" or it's yet another "instance of the devs screwing over swordsmen"....how on earth are you coming to this conclusion?
In my oppinion they should make it so that a dot will incapp one time and one time only. I agree that it sucks to get incapped over and over again because of the DoT delay after incapp. I got a bleed on a BH just before his AT-ST killed me and I layed there on the ground for about 30min. laughing like crazy as he would fall over, get back up, and just as his mind was all healed up it would tick again and he would be back on the ground again...over and over. The biggest advantages of the bleed being able to kill in PvE is if you are fighting multiple targets it gives a way to deal damage to them and kill them without spamming area attacks and eating your HAM, gives melee's a chance to still deal damage and kill a kiting mob, and my favorite one...can save us a trip to the cloning center if we get incapped by the mob that DB's. So yeah, one incap...no more, no less.
The bleed was pretty much the only way we could compete with ranged classes and TKA's.
That fact that it takes them down to 1hp is totally insignificant, because we'll be dead by then.
Ever dueled a TKA? -- After you get that first bleed in, thats it, game over, because youre KD Dizzied on the floor and getting the crap beaten out of you. There is no second chance, no second attack.
Fighting ranged classes, I usually only ever manage to get one hit in because of the "Out of Range" issue. Then they can just kite me with their 1hp that I can't touch. Brilliant.
This totally screws us over PvP-wise
ive killed a master tk with a bleed.
but im usually incapped at the time.
bleeds are good, but we have the mind hit to add to the bleed.
you use bleed - mind hit - mind hit - posture change......ect
im ok with it because im sick of getting bleeds and then going to the clone center.
but if the clone trip is really the problem why dont they just make it so bleeds only kill you twice?
