I open this thread mainly as a discussion... and mostly to talk about the current state of engineer pvp... for people to realize / funcom to open its eyes to the fact that engineers cant really do much... in the ways of mass pvp....
After 3 rounds of battle station today, I wasnt able to kill a single person... now this is quite distrubing... and no I wasnt running around in a tutu with boxing gloves... I actually got the pets out this time, had my little masters bidding nano running, and that advanced hacking software....
I think the biggest problem is the fact that pets... miss... thats right people.. our chicken bot misses people... why is this? Well if your not blind you can see that over the past... o I dont know... 4-5 or so patches.. funcom has been giving out the love with items... AAD here, evade close there... some more NR here.. it all starts to add up.. the problem?
We havent got a single... a SINGLE AAO increasing, or damage increasing nano for our pets... (void masters bidding, which isnt even useable by most engies because of PM / SI.... more on this later)
Along with the evades / aad funcom everyone seems to be so full of these days, NR is another thing on the list... we all know intrusive aura worked great before (sarcasm off) but now theres no chance in hell of it working... I havent gotten it to work on a single person as of late.. which as anyone can tell you means no kills... we have no slows, snares, roots (lolcakes to root grafts) people just run from the pets / us.... or better yet... kite, or stand on the platforms so they cant get hit...
I know nick is pretty much retired from pvp.. and although I wouldnt say im.. a "pvp" engie, after today I think its pretty much useless to even try to kill someone on BS... and if your not killing people.. is there a point really..? no.. didnt think so... (and no I dont need VP)
Its quite obvious that with out a content designer, whos an old professional of your profession.. that you get nothing done.... yah for clue-less funcom....
So thats my rant for today, tune in next week when we cover 5 gem aruls!
