With possibility to have around 1,8 -1,9 k ar at lvl 150 i wouldnt like to face the without Wit that is told to get nerfed soon. They still perk me with one drain running. Good doc i wont drain with higher nr check drain and even if i do they have removers. Once ubt hits me its pretty much game over. Ive also tried to kill a 150 keeper with HD setup and ive managed to root/drain/debuff him. Unfortunately after shooting him for 2 minutes I got ganked. Fixers have some drain removers or whatever … About facing 170 agents I wont even mention and 150s are fair and equal fights, especially that even double drained they still cap dmg every 11s.
Traders are indeed annoying in mass pvp and very good at pp but they are far far away from being unkilable. Remmove AS from their toolset and they wont be able to kill anything but the worst gimps without evades. Remove or nerf drains and they will be just p.o.s. Nerfing drains idea coming from guy playing an enforcer is just silly, always up for some easy kills and ready to ask for nerfing one thing that may stop you, eh?
The only thing that may be needed are shorter drain durations. With around 30-40s duration traders wold be to busy keeping their targets drained to heal.
