    You're one of those losers that ran in 7 infiltrator 1 minstrel stealth zergs in the labyrinth, weren't you? The density it takes to not see how absolutely abusive rogues AND control wizards are in pvp is unfathomable.

    But TR gets a free kill by using the daily. Buff their abilities if anything, but no class should get an "I win" button.

    Shocking Execution should be nerfed, but the problem with that is the lack of anything else for damage but Lashing Blade and At-wills. We only have a few good pvp abilities as is; Smoke Bomb, Impossible to Catch and Deft Strike. We have a couple other abilities that are usable sometimes, Dazing Strike if you're stealthed, Shadow Strike if you're the always stealthed build and Impact Shots if you're trying to make some weird ranged rogue.

    Beyond our few massively terrifying abilities(luckily we do have three ridiculous encounters and a daily) rogues are pretty terribad in pvp.

    I do think that most classes have this problem though a few outlier abilities and the rest are, well, mediocre.

    Lol , how can rogues be terribad if they have a one shot ability and 3 skills that can remove half the hp. Oh well, i guess the game needs a serious retinkering with every class.

    Well damage in general needs to be toned down.

    But having a move completely make mitigation useless when it's usefulness is already questionable is terrible. I'm seeing vids of SE being used on full hp people and doing a non-crit for 75% of their HP, that's not right. Although that's also a product of dmg being too high in general.

    TBH the only thing I want to nerf on Rogues is SE ignoring defense completely, if necessary make it do more dmg at lower hp, the bonus dmg of being an execution helps overcome defenses, it shouldn't get both, that's just stupid.

    LOL I'm sorry, but how exactly is that a down side?

    If you can do more than enough dmg to kill anyone with just 1 encounter and at-wills you're golden, and even if SE was made completely useless you still have a broken 60% dmg modifier that also refills stealth.

    Making it so you're not so reliant on multiple encounters for dmg lets you have freedom in your encounter choices and let you slot utility.

    Other classes like GWF don't have that luxury, at wills for them in pvp are <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>, and they have to have 3 specific Encounters to kill anyone.

    Shocking Execution should just get a nerf where it can only be used when the person is at a specific amount of health, say 30% or 25%, and ignore half the defense of the person. This is coming from a Trickster Rogue.

    heres a interesting thing, NOTHING will change for the sake of pvp in this game, and im glad of it (the devs have stated this, it is a pve game first afterall), and those stating they were 1 shot are talking BS unless they are severely undergeared, shocking execution deals more damage the less hps you have, and if you use it on someone with full hps, its rare theyll die from it, not to menton rogues build AP MUCH slower than any other class, especially in pvp.
    hell, im at 11.6k ish gear score, im at 3k crit, 5k ish power, 2200 armour pen, running either vorpal or greater plaguefire enchants, and i rarely 1 shot people (as in can count it on my hands the number of times ive done it), however, the ammount of times people have claimed ove 1 shot them is probably 75% of the kills i get with shokcing execution, whe in fact, they were often at half health already (as its largely a waste to pop it if they are at full health), not to mention the skills already kind of <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> in pve compared to what lurkers assault can get us.

    Nerf Shocking Execution, Go for it.

    But also nerf ice knife, ray of enfeeblement, astral shield, indomitable strength, crescendo.

    Oh, also, make it so GWF and GF have the same hp and defense as rogue. Also, make it so GWF and GF can't knock down or stun, but instead only silences like the rogue. You can give them stealth too. I have no problems destroying other rogues so if they were like other rogues, I'll destroy them too.

    Rock is crying that paper owns them, but haven't said a thing about them dominating scissors.

    Won't matter. These people will still cry because they want their class to have it all. They want the most defense, the most hp, and the most damage. Even if they played rogues, they'll cry that rogues doesn't have hard crowd control skills like the other classes. They'll cry that rogues' stealth breaks too fast. They'll cry that rogues' AP generates too slow.

    Plate means little if you have 2000 armour pen + plague fire enchant all in all i have 65% armour penetration .and defence builds means little more then o he has less dps then normal dpsers:D


    1 executioner works on how much hp the target has lost. so if you are on 100% hp it dose no dmg if your on 10% hp it will hit you for 30k .
    if your getting hit hard by a rouge in plate he has armour pen stacked and plague enchant.
    and plate QQ that rouges hit hard wen they can kill a rouge in one stun knock down is funny .

    before all the trolls come ye i play both classes i know what's OP in both of em try 7 ten enchants on your gwf and see rouges melt

    11.6k?!??!

    Jesus Christ did a pvp match yesterday and everyone was hitting like Absolute trucks whilst taking 0 damage. And i was just thinking I had gotten rusty from doing no pvp for a while.
    Yeah people don't pay much attention to hp in pvp usually cos the damage is STUPID compared to hp.
    In pve though Shocking execution is complete and utter ****e. I wish they would buff blood bath ._. I miss that skill alot.


    On a general note.
    This is just another game where again, gear becomes such a leading factor in pvp and it ends up ruining the fun people had whilst leveling.
    Not that it matters too much as I had my fun, pre: no-lifers/Paytowinners/60lolwtfgear.

    BG for me now is just a pve daily and anyone at end level thinking that it takes skill is either geared to the teeth or a Rogue/CW.

    GF were my most hated but since I finally caved in to Impossible to catch their cc's, they have got NOTHING ON ME BTCHES YOLO SWAG AND SOJDOSJKWN /o/

    Don't ask me what the spells/abilities are but...

    I don't enjoy PVP games where I'm stunned/dazed/killed every time I re-spawn - should I ask for every stun to be removed?

    edit: I mean chain stunned/dazed etc - so it's spawn, run somewhere, die, spawn, run somewhere, die...

    This.

    Learn how the skill works before you cry about it.

    You can not be one shot killed by shocking execution if you have full HP..

    Yes! This is a whining post agains insane rogue criticals!

    Let me explain what happened to me, i have a GWF with sentinel feats and full defense stat equip.

    I have something like 3k defense, 46% damage reduction and 35% more or less deflection... 30k HP and 9k gear score.

    This day started happily, i wanted to test my new defense build on my gwf and see the results... than BOOM.

    27k critical on me from nowhere, a sec later i'm dead.

    Who is going to pay my psychologist sessions now?! That was traumatic...

    I mean... full defense build in 2 hits... mother of god...

    What the first person said is right. That rogue could have easily had his daily filled up before the match even started (make sure you hit those dummies, fellas), and popped it right after a guaranteed crit from lashing blade. He would have then been pretty defenseless, but you were already dead so I guess that doesn't matter for you. It should be noted that if you use shocking execution on an enemy with a decent amount of health, you're going to get face-rolled.

    Heck my TR got 2 shotted by a GWF who looked to have no armor on. First hit was a charge of some kind from a good ways off, dropped me to about 40%, then next hit finished me off.

    I agree! You should be nerfed! Rogues can't get their defense that high... so you are OP! NERF!

    Seriously... people need to get a grip and realize... the classes are balanced... but not equal.

    Rogue - master at one on one attacks from stealth - no stealth = dead, no daily up = dead, multiple opponents = dead

    Fighter - masters at defense and soaking up damage

    Mages - masters of long range and AoE damage

    Clerics - masters at healing

    Mages can't heal... does that mean clerics are OP? Fighters can't cast spells and massive AoE's... does that mean mages are OP? Rogues can't wear plate armor and don't have tons of hit points... so are Fighter's OP?

    The fact is... the classes all fit neatly into cookie cutter roles. If you're going to go one on one with a rogue and wonder why you lost... then you're dumb. If a rogue heads towards a mage with no stealth and then gets choked, frozen stunned and dead and wonder why he lost... then he's dumb.

    Know you're abilities and maximize them.... know your opponent's weaknesses and exploit them.

    same movie, same power, the only thing different is the other character and what (s)he's wearing, and that tends to make a big difference.

    FYI Pretty much any class in this game relies heavily on its dailies.
    Its just Rogue Dailies (or that Shocking ****) that are ridiculously overpowered.
    Do I even need to prove it? Have you not seen the amount of TRs lately?
