Trickster Rogue is 'still' too over-powered~

edited May 2013 in PvE Discussion
Before most of you (yes, most; since a good portion of players are TR's) try to rip me from limb to limb, allow me to clarify.

First things first, I play a CW.
I'm fully aware that my class really isn't designed to put out hefty dps, as well as the fact that I'm squishy to say the least.
Although whether it be in PvE or PvP, the Rogues do a tremendous output of dps, with really no cons at all.
It most cases in PvE, the players to top the dps table, are rogues.
In PvP, they can light you up in seconds.

Whether it be their abilities that can literally take away 40% of your HP, or the ability to 'silence' you; they are virtually unstoppable.
I've seen a single Rogue take on two GWF and rip them apart in under 20 seconds.
Like I had stated, they usually have the upper hand in PvE in terms of DPS,
but in PvP they can take down any class like it's nothing.

I can now understand why they're so popular in the community.
Simply because they own everything.
I hardly see balance with them in comparison to the other available classes.

[Also, let me just add that I don't really appreciate any rude comments or malcontent. I'm just voicing my opinion, and I would like the thread to stay open for discussion; any demeaning remarks can taint this thread and subject it to violations within the forum agreements. So please. If you know you're about to rage, take it elsewhere. Keep in mind that negative things are better left unsaid.]

    Use your skills you have and with team work it won't be like that. Sorry but it can't be nerf anymore or shouldn't be they fine as is .

    You're a CW complaining about getting killed in PvP?

    Played right, wizards are untouchable. If there's a melee class getting close enough to hit you then something is wrong (unless you're getting stealth jumped every time).

    My main problem with TR is in PvP and that damned silence ability they have. I don't play TR so I don't know what it's called but it's like a 5 second silence maybe where you can't cast or dodge which is basically a death sentence.

    I don't know, I was playing in PvP and this CW was owning me constantly. I killed him twice, but all five of my deaths were because of him.

    I agree that we're OP in PvE. I mean, I can basically DPS tank any of the dungeons up until the Mad Dragon, but in PvP I think we're quite balanced. The other classes(with the exception of the CW) just need to be buffed.

    I'm pretty good with keeping them at bay; most classes, in that case.
    It's that stealth jump and silence thing they do.
    It's crazy.

    YES. that ability.
    & it seems like the CD for it is like 5 seconds or something. (Probably not, but sure does feel like it.)

    I can 1v1 a Rogue no problem, but man.
    If he gets the jump on me, it's over. Lol.

    TR should be high burst damage not high overall damage

    they should even out in a dungeon with CWs and GWFs, and clerics should be able to either dps or offtank - not both, in addition to their healing - if at all

    currently rogues top damage charts like nobodies business, GWFs do less damage than GFs. CWs are fine imo.

    Yet another PVP playing CW, complaining about ONE class that gives you trouble, and proclaiming it OP. As if every class needs to be weak to yours. What about all the other classes you steamroll? Are CW's OP, because only one class in the game gives you trouble?

    Rogues are the only DPS class in the game right now. They are the only Striker. So yes, they do the most damage. They also take a ton of damage, and have little to no other options for party contribution/utility.

    That's how it should be with a Rogue, though. We are ambushers, after all.

    Use team work to defeat a single rogue? Thats not balance. Why not have rogues play like rogues, they shouldnt be bullrushing fighters ever.

    I've heard 3 times now that Rogues can fight face to fight with multiple people, rogue jumps on a target and rips into them and everyone else cant kill the rogue before the rogue kills its target. What is the actual difference in HP? I know in BW3 difference in hp between my GWF and a rogue was pitifully small. If its like 20% less hp and armor then its not enough for a class with stealth and a REAL dodge.

    That's the thing.
    EVERY class has some sort of offensive;
    It's just Rogues blow DPS out of the water.

    Yeah they take a fair amount of damage due to their armor class,
    but when it comes to their evasion methods and crazy DPS and silence skills, they're just too OP.
    [I have the term "op" but that's really the only way to put it.]

    I'm not directly asking them to be nerfed,
    just how about balancing out the other classes a bit to keep up somewhat.

    It seems the problem with rogues is they can take on EVERYOne, head on, and generally come out on top.

    Rogue vs CW, Rogue wins.
    Rogue vs GWF,Rogue wins.
    Rogue vs Guardian, Rogue wins.

    There needs to be a counter to the class, one class counters this class, counters another, etc.

    Rogues shouldn't be toe to toe in melee vs GWF or such and winning that exchange. If they don't get the surprise backstab they should not have the upperhand in a fight.

    I bet if rogues were made to be squishier, they'd be forced to use Stealth defensively more often. Do you see them using stealth offensively or defensively more ?

    Everything about your post is incorrect. EVERYTHING. Like, even small things like their class, and gender, and you probably got your OWN NAME WRONG, because you're going for some kind of incorrectness-combo multiplier or something.

    LOL. Thank you !

    And your logic is that this will be the first MMO-RPG in history to launch with balanced and completed classes ? I'm just curious, anyone here know if WoW has stopped patching any of their current classes ? People experience things in game, voice their opinion, get community feedback, they should TRY to make it constructive. No one should be saying everything is fine at launch, ever, and rogues are ALWAYS a tricky class. So if you have experience, just list some pro's and con's of the classes, something you feel would add WEIGHT to the discussion, because hot air does not.

    Oh please.
    Get over yourself.

    The point of forums is to discuss.
    Even this particular area is to discuss Classes.
    NOW is when these things should ultimately be discussed BECAUSE the game HASN'T been released.
    Better to get things right now, before going in too deep.

    Take your belligerent comments elsewhere.

    I can handle the responses quite fine, actually.
    It's the lack of respect and unnecessary confrontation that I don't appreciate.

    Also, I play my class pretty well.
    & oh you're 60? Gratz.

    CW's can't do much if they're opened on by a rogue who knows how to daze only while stealthed so the cw can't dodge it and doesn't blow his shadowstep too early and get kited.

    That being said, a CW will obliterate a rogue if the cw opens on him out of stealth and at range. Two extremes but you get my drift.

    Then don't seem so affected by it sweetheart.
    I don't need a cookie hitting max level is like taking a shower. The point is that I see no problem and I am at end game. I know how to play my class. Sometimes I lose, sometimes I don't. Maybe eaach class needs some tweaks, but there are so many posts and comments about TR being overpowered and it just...gets old. Discuss it with facts, examples, screenshots and if there are problems to it.......post a solution. This wasn't a discussion post, this was a cry and demand post.

    Isnt that a 'rinse and repeat' situation? Rogue fails initiation, so he runs/stealths and try's again when cooldowns are off ? My biggest concern is im hearing that a rogue can kill a GWF before two GWF's can kill him, they just sound extremely durable for a class with a dodge and stealth. But i havnt heard the actual hp/defense numbers yet. Plus, Stealth is amazing for a capture game style, they could literally not be able to 1v1 any class and STILL be good in pvp because its objective based. Thats what i liked about GW2, not everyone was a kill*****.

    Exactly. If a rogue catches you first, youre dead and if you catch the rogue first he is dead....if not well then that's you showing how bad you are in my opinion. A TR would be overpowered IF......you got the jump on the rogue during a 1v1 and he still killed you quickly majority of the time, but also gear and playstyle and skill possibly come into play.

    That sounds boring and the opposite of what an action/skill game is supposed to be, Rogue has a lot more at his disposal than just damage, he has unique luxuries. Hell, can anyone besides a TR even get the jump on another TR, where they COULDNT stun you/stealth out of it ? They get total freedom on the field to pick and choose, i think their upfront damage is a bit too high, and combat advantage positioning should be more important for the role. I've just been watching every PvP video on youtube and it seems consistent that a rogue can kill whoever he wants and you cant pull them off, they'll simply kill their target before you can kill them.

    Rather than Nerf TR, Improve the other Classes so they are better at pvp no?
