I agree. Thus the easiest way is to increase the base damage of melee tree abilities by a large margin.
Keep in mind, that a lot of their dmg is aoe, so raising dmg to be viable in ST makes them too strong.
Not really, it's easy to adjust. For example - big bouncin (aoe) does more damage with each tick then ard noggin (ST), even though tooltips states otherwise. Things are completely messed up.

If we're getting rid of one of 25% damage boost tactic, each ability should be looked at and their base damage properly adjusted.

Examples - big bouncin 20% increase (aoe), ard noggin (ST - btw, weakest damage output ability as a melee spammable lel) 45% increase, sneaky strike (ST - decent tooltip and base damage - possibly cooldown lowered to 5s).

Etc etc. It wouldn't be that hard to tweak damage values so it works decently. One evening tops. Patch it, playtest for a week or so, adjust accordingly afterwards - and that's all it needs.
What about 15% damage tactic? Did you all use triple %damage tactics before?
I thought the build was Masterful Aim + Pick on your own size + double loner. In this case you go from +50% damage to +40% damage, thats not a big loss

Something should be done with that. Either give pets high resistance to AoE damage or make them affected by group heals.
Pets already have resistance to AOE damage.... And quite a big bit as well

I know with both my engi and magus, in any siege situation, the turrent/daemon dies in basically two shots from AOE damage. I am constantly having to re-summon. I could easily be Re-summoning 20-30 times in any extended siege action.

Put them at safer place. even players die standing at aoe spot. why not pets.
pet class need to control pets. and stationary need to find where to stand. that's minimum requirement, basic.
