now that i got your attention, no ofcourse its not overpowered. but it sure as hell can win u the game.
couple days ago (this was on my commander level fed engineer on my cruiser) i kept getting in capture and holds with the about the same team. well i was competing with another cruiser (not sure if he was engi or not) for most damage and most healing. sometimes i got on top, sometimes i was second. but man o man i think we only lost one game that entire afternoon to the klinks. why?? on commander level we were both above 120k damage done and around 80k maybe even more healing done, each. i can assure u that i could even feel the frustration of the klinks oozing throug the internet. i felt it. they just couldnt kill any of us. the defensive abillity those cruisers have togheter with the amount of hull and shield heals you can randomly provide your team is just amazing and game winning. strange to see that our damage and healing was almost twice that of the rest of the team. healing is often just 0 for most (not counting shields ofcourse).
so go out there start healing ur teammates, ull see winning streaks you barely dared to dream about.
stop QQ and start to play like its intended cause as far as i know this game (and its pvp is working as intended.)
i dont feel that any side is overpowered at this moment and pvp has only one issue atm wich is SNB+VM. on the other hand that combo was about the only thing wich they could use to kill me strait of in my cruiser. so im not even sure if its op. (safe to say i realy dont like that move and if not changed ill never use that combo myself, being on the receiving end of it ive noticed its realy realy not fun doing nothing for 30 sec in a pvp match)
I try to heal as much as I can in PvP since most times my DPS is pretty embarrassing. Unfortunately, until I can count on other team members to back me up with some regularity I'm hesitant to lend someone my Engineering Team II. When I do, the opponents are usually pretty quick to redirect their fire at me (just as they do when they see Extend Shields putting RSP on cool down).
I wonder if most players in pick up groups are going through a similar tug of war. Do I help others or help myself? Honestly, if it goes as you have said then helping others is the best way to help ones own self. Sometimes you just can't count on assistance quickly enough (especially with the damage spiking the way it is).
true, at times ive had so much focus fire on me that i was unable to provide any kind of assistance to anyone else. just barely kept myself alive. but when i see someone being fired upon i will assist that person, even if my hull is down to 30% or something. keep those active resistances where they are most needed is more important than getting your own hull back to 100%
as long as your team remains alive u are winning. so thats why i always keep healing (when i can) even if no one else seems to be doing the same. ive got enough of resistance buffs to have some survivability

Yup! Extend shields too, it doesn't help your stats but it's almost as powerfull as RSP! That pluss HZ and engineering team 2 you save an escorts day as well as frusterating the klinks.
